David was born in a small village in Punjab India where he credits his family for teaching him the value of hard work and for starting each day well before the sunrise, a belief he stays true to this day. David often comments on the influence of his grandfather a small Punjab farmer and the life lessons he gleaned from his village is a huge influence on the success he has earned in Canada. David migrated to the United States at the age of 21 determined to learn a trade and to make his family proud. He quickly proved himself and lead paint crews of over 500 painters in the heart of New York City. After several years, David’s family called him to Canada where he brought his talent, hard work, integrity, and entrepreneurial sense to the province of British Columbia. The companies name is rooted in David’s early years mastering his craft and building his skill and thus the birth of New York Painting & Coating Ltd. evolved.

Married and blessed with two sons, David has worked so hard to ensure both boys learn their heritage and learn to contribute to the Canada, a country that has afforded David so much. “I always say that my family built this business. It is not a career or family, both are intertwined. Everyone has to provide support and do for one another and this encouragement is critical to the growth of our business.
