Inside and out. Any size home. The jobs too small for a builder and too much for a handyman.

There is a very good chance that, if you have lived in the area, you probably already know Fred Pell. He is a local legend. Some people affectionately call him “the Mayor.” He knows most of the business owners in Boone.

Time slows down around him in a way that lets you appreciate life and the beauty of life, and he always seems to be in the right place at the right time.

A High Country contractor for the work in between

A deck needs attention. The siding needs repair. A room is ready for a new coat of paint, but the project feels too small for a builder and too much for a handyman. Finding the right person for that middle ground is where Pell's Angels : Painting and Remodeling comes in.

Fred Pell is a residential general contractor serving Boone and the High Country. With 50 years of experience, he takes on painting, remodeling and restoration projects from a single room to a 10,000-square-foot home, along with commercial painting and architectural design services for residential and commercial projects.

The jobs that fall between two contractors

Not every home project is a new build or a quick fix. Fred takes on decks, pergolas, wood repair, siding, drywall, popcorn ceilings and pressure washing—the jobs that can fall between two contractors but still need someone to take them on.

Pell offers remodeling and repair services for homeowners looking for help with that middle ground, whether the work is inside the home or out.

Too small for a builder.
Too much for a handyman.

The space Pell and his team work in.

A team that scales with the job

Pell's Angels has a team of 12 painting and remodeling professionals, working in two to four crews as needed. The number of crews can adjust to the size and needs of the project.

Free estimates give you a starting point for discussing the work. The team can get to jobs within two weeks; contact Fred to confirm availability, since scheduling depends on the project and current workload.

The Person Behind the Business

An artist's background. A lifetime of hands-on work.

Painting a home and painting a movie set may seem like different worlds. Fred Pell has worked in both. His background includes painting for movie set design, along with 50 years of experience that he brings to Pell's Angels : Painting and Remodeling.

Fred has an art degree and a background in commercial art, painting and drawing. That artistic training is part of what he brings to decorative work, including faux finishes, as well as the interior and exterior painting projects his team takes on throughout the High Country.

Interior, exterior and commercial painting

Fred is a commercial painter as well as a residential painter, taking on interior and exterior work for homes and businesses. Pressure washing is also available for projects that need attention beyond a fresh coat of paint.

His background in painting, drawing and commercial art also carries into decorative finishes. Faux finishes offer another option for clients looking for something different from a standard painted surface.

New murals and touch-ups for existing artwork

Fred is also a mural painter. Along with creating custom murals, he provides mural touch-up services for existing artwork that needs attention. Whether you have a new idea or a mural you want to refresh, contact Fred to discuss its size, location and condition.

Restoration, inside and out

Some homes have a story that stretches back generations. Fred's restoration experience includes homes more than 200 years old, bringing his painting and remodeling background to buildings with a long history.

Pell's Angels : Painting and Remodeling works inside and outside the home. Whether the project calls for interior painting, exterior work, remodeling or a faux finish, restoration is an important part of what Fred and his team offer.

From one room to 10,000 square feet

A project doesn't have to be a whole-house undertaking. Fred has worked on projects ranging from a single room to a 10,000-square-foot home. Any size home fits within the team's scope.

For homeowners, that means the same business can be a starting point for a room refresh, a larger painting project or a remodeling and restoration job.

Architectural design, drafting and rendering

Pell's Angels now also offers architectural design, drafting and rendering services for residential and commercial projects. Alongside painting, remodeling and restoration, these services give clients a place to discuss their project plans as well as the hands-on work.
