My name is Chad Joy, owner of CertaPro Painters® of Jackson, MS. Born in Galesburg, Illinois, my parents moved us to Brandon, Mississippi, in 1983, and I have lived in Mississippi since then. I started working right out of high school, and most of my jobs have been in sales.
Prior to my CertaPro life, I was an overseas contractor in Bagram, Afghanistan, for three years. Spending that time overseas opened my eyes to what our troops deal with daily, and I have tremendous respect for all our men and women who fight for our freedom and liberties. Without their sacrifices, I know I would not be where I am. I can’t thank them enough for their service.
In 2014, I purchased my CertaPro franchise and have enjoyed the painting world since. I run the business and operate the commercial side as well. I appreciate all the painting projects that we have completed and look forward to helping our customers transform their homes or buildings into their visions.
Outside of work, I am married to my beautiful wife, Ashley, and we have two amazing daughters. We currently live in Madison and love our community. We all enjoy going to the beach on vacations, and when not working, I try to fish, hunt, golf (not very well), and enjoy life as much as possible.
