Carvél (pronounced carVEL) specializes in eco-friendly paints and stains, all of which perform well in the dry air and wide-ranging temperatures of the northern Nevada climate. The professional painting firm works with contractors, as well as directly with individuals on both residential and commercial sites.
Owned and operated by John Allen, a graduate of the University of Nevada School of Chemistry, Carvél Painting is a local resource for information about product components, including the composition of low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) and no-VOC paints, stains and coatings.
“We’re committed to a clean environment for our painters and for our clients,” says Allen. “And we are dedicated to be using products that stand up to the harsh realities of our climate. People are often surprised that we are able to do both.” Allen’s chemistry background adds to the depth of knowledge he brings to any conversation about paints and building surfaces.
Already known for its faux art finishes – marbling, trompe-l’oeil, and wall treatments such as koruku, scumble – Carvél Painting has been expanding over the last two years as a commercial contracting firm. In this capacity, it has painted, stained, and finished exterior and interior surfaces of large, commercial buildings and of some of Reno’s most beautiful homes.
Now, as part of its fresh brand, Carvél Painting is launching its new Website, www.carvelpainting.com, designed by Integris Marketing, a Nevada firm that supplies both marketing expertise and solar-powered Website hosting.
