Why A Cut Above
A local crew that treats your walls like our own.
A Cut Above Painting, Drywall, Wallpaper & More is owned and run by Tony Hayes Jr. Since 2020 we've been helping Naperville and Aurora homeowners — and local businesses — turn tired, dated rooms into spaces they're proud of.
Because the owner is on the job, you get one point of contact, honest pricing, and workmanship that actually holds up: crisp lines, clean prep, smooth drywall and a tidy site at the end of every day.
- Owner-operated — you deal directly with Tony, not a call center
- Residential and commercial, interior and exterior
- Clean prep, sharp lines, and a tidy site every day
