DGR was originally founded in 1958 and later purchased in 1996 by Dan and Janelle Reeder, who spent nearly three decades building one of Omaha's most trusted painting contractors through an unwavering commitment to quality craftsmanship.
In 2024, DGR was acquired by brothers Travis and Tyler Anderson, born and raised in Seward, Nebraska. Their father owns a family business building custom homes throughout Seward County, and it was growing up in that environment that gave them their foundation in the construction and design industry.
Today, DGR's professional team of accomplished painters and wallpaper hangers continues that same tradition: superior quality work, on time, within budget, and personally managed from start to finish.
DGR opens its doors in Omaha. The D and the G come from its founders, Bud Darden and Ray Gloeb.
Dan and Janelle Reeder purchase the company and spend nearly three decades building DGR into one of Omaha's most trusted painting contractors.
Travis and Tyler Anderson acquire DGR. Raised in Seward, Nebraska around their father's custom home-building business, they grew up in the trade.

Patching, caulking, rot repair and priming are in the scope, never discovered later as a change order.
One project manager owns your job from the estimate through the walkthrough, so you are never chasing whoever answers the phone.
Our consultants bring the deck to your space and check it in the light you actually live in.
Plaster, wallcovering and industrial coatings are all inside our scope, so one company answers for the whole job.
Every estimate is itemized in writing before a single drop cloth comes out of the van.
A chip that reads warm gray in the store can go lilac on a north-facing wall. We check it in the room.
Tell us what you are painting and we will walk the property, write up an itemized scope, and give you a real number.
We'll get back to you within one business day to schedule your visit.
