About Us

Wm. B. Saleh Company is a third-generation family painting business founded in 1949, by Wm. B. Saleh Sr. After spending time pursuing opportunities in other parts of the country, Saleh Sr. decided to return to his childhood home to raise his family.

Having roots in the painting industry (his father was a painter), Saleh Sr. saw a need for a painting company in the Fresno area. Focusing on quality and service, he opened the doors in 1949. In 1958, Wm. B. Saleh Jr. (Bill) started working with his father in the business. As the company grew, Bill took on more responsibility and, in 1970, took over the reins as Saleh Sr. retired.

The company prospered and grew during the 1970s, opening its new office/shop complex in 1979, its present location. In 1980, Mark Saleh, Bill’s son, joined his father full time in the business. Working together during the 1980s and 1990s, the company grew expanding markets into Nevada with projects in Texas and Florida. Under Bill’s guidance, Mark took over operation of the Company in 2001.

Today, Mark and Bill still work together in the business along with their partners Terry Osburn (Bakersfield office).

Between the two offices, the company now employs a 120-member crew with a 16-member support team. Committed to the original ideals of service and quality laid down by Wm. B. Saleh Sr., the Wm. B. Saleh Company is positioned to serve its customers well into the future.
