At Tower Painters, we specialize in painting ski lifts, gondolas, and trams — and we’ve been doing it for over 40 years! This niche craft demands precision, and we bring it in every brushstroke. Founded by Robert, who began painting lifts after years in lift maintenance, our team delivers smooth finishes, crisp lines, and paint jobs that elevate both appearance and safety. From faded colors to flaking paint, we restore your ski lifts to look brand new. Need bolts tightened on your tram tower? We do that, too. With a national reach and an unmatched passion for what we do, no one paints like Tower Painters.

Tower Painters started with our founder, Robert, who’s been skiing since he was four. After moving to the mountains, he began working in lift maintenance at Squaw Valley. When he left maintenance to ski more, his boss asked him to paint the lifts instead — and just like that, Tower Painters was born. Since then, Robert has spent 40+ years perfecting the art of ski lift painting. He still skis 4 or 5 days a week in the winter and leads a dedicated team that shares his passion for mountain life and expert painting.

We’re proudly based in Soda Springs, California — but our reach is nationwide. We’ve completed lift painting projects in California, Alaska, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Pennsylvania, New England, and many places in between. No mountain is too remote if it means delivering our signature quality to your lift.

Hiring Tower Painters means you skip the stress and get guaranteed results. We bring every tool needed to prep, mask, and paint with precision. We know what to paint, what to protect, and how to leave behind a perfectly polished finish. From covering electric boxes and lift shacks to crisp paint lines that wow your riders, our team delivers clean, efficient, and safe painting every time. Additionally, if your bolts need tightening, we’ve got that covered too. With decades of hands-on experience, we make safety and quality our top priorities.

We do more than paint ski lifts, gondolas, and trams. We also tighten bolts, restore lift components, and have even added candy-cane stripes to drive shafts and ski patrol buildings. If it adds charm, color, or safety to your mountain, we’re in. Have a special request? Call us at (530) 210-1056 or fill out our contact form. Robert will get back to you personally to discuss your vision.

Timelines vary depending on the size and scope of your project. When you reach out with the details, we’ll provide an accurate estimate based on your needs. We work around your summer operating schedule and do not perform painting services during the winter months.
