A Painting Company
Built on Trust

Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall began with a simple belief—homeowners deserve better. After seeing too many clients receive rushed jobs and broken promises, founder Mike Benain committed to raising the bar.

Meet the Owner

Hi, I'm Mike. When I come out to your home, my goal is simple: to listen, understand what you're looking for, answer your questions, and provide you with an honest, detailed estimate. I want you to feel confident in whatever decision you make.

Our Story

Mike Benain founded Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall in 2013 with one goal: give homeowners in Valparaiso and surrounding cities the honest, high-quality work they deserve. Today, backed by his 26 years of hands-on painting and drywall experience, that commitment hasn't changed.

Family-Owned with Heart

Family-owned and rooted in Valparaiso, we treat every home we paint like it's in our own neighborhood — because it usually is.

The Protector’s Promise

We show up when we say we will, protect your floors and furniture before the first drop of paint, and back every job with a written warranty.

Why Homeowners Choose Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall

Every Hoosier Boys project starts the same way: a detailed look at the surface before a single drop of paint goes on. Scraping, sanding, patching, caulking — the steps that don’t show up in a photo but show up in how the finish holds. Mike Benain oversees that process personally, backed by Sherwin-Williams materials and a crew that treats preparation as a fundamental part of the work, done with care from the first step.

26+ Years of Hands-On Experience

We’ve worked on hundreds of homes in Valparaiso, Chesterton, Portage, and Hobart. That experience shows in how we approach each project — reading the surface, selecting the right products, and executing with consistency.

Warranty-Backed Workmanship

Our warranty is tied to the scope and materials of each job — ranging from 1 to 3 years depending on what the project requires. We walk you through exactly what you’re covered for before any work begins.

Professional-Grade Materials

Every product we use is selected for durability, finish quality, and long-term performance. What goes on the wall determines how long the work holds up — and that decision starts before the project does.

Free In-Home Estimates

We come to you, walk the space, and deliver a written proposal that covers scope, materials, timeline, and cost — before any commitment is made. The estimate is part of how we do the work.

Residential Focus, Owner Involvement

We are a residential painting company. Mike Benain, the owner, is directly involved in every project — from the initial estimate to the final walkthrough. When you hire Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall, you’re working with the person who built the company.

Communication You Can Count On

You’ll receive a written proposal before we start — scope, materials, timeline, and pricing. Once work begins, we keep you informed at each stage. No surprises, no changes without discussion.

How Our Painting Process Works
From In-home Estimate to Final Walkthrough

Every project follows the same structure. Here’s what to expect when you work with Hoosier Boys Painting and Drywall.

Free In-Home Estimate

We visit the property, walk through the space with you, and take note of every surface, condition, and detail that affects the scope. You ask questions — we give you straight answers. No commitment required.

Written Proposal and Scheduling

You receive a written proposal that covers the full scope of work, the materials we'll use, the timeline, and the total cost. Once approved, we set a firm start date.

Preparation and Execution

Preparation is where most of the work happens. We protect floors, furniture, and fixtures before a single can is opened. Surface prep — cleaning, sanding, caulking, and priming — is completed before any paint is applied. Then we work through the scope cleanly and efficiently.

Final Walkthrough

When the work is done, we walk through every area with you. If anything needs attention, we address it before we leave. We clean up completely and leave the space ready to use.
