Meet the Team : Tami Jacob

Tami Jacob : Co-Founder and Operations Director

When you meet Tami Jacob, you quickly understand that Prima Painting is more than just a business. It’s a force for generosity and support.

What began as her and husband's venture to provide for their family has grown, through Tami’s care and determination, into a business that not only supports their own household but also extends that support to a growing team of employees—each one treated like family.

Tami’s guiding principle has always been loyalty and generosity. She believes in putting others first, and coming to the aid of the underdog. Whether in lending a hand to those in need, diverting her time and resources to those less fortunate, or on occasion literally rescuing a lost four-legged friend. This deep-rooted compassion is matched by her remarkable professionalism, creating a rare balance of efficiency and warmth. As the saying goes, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” Tami embodies this truth every day.

Within Prima Painting, her influence is less about single moments of triumph and more about a steady, ever-present rhythm. She is the team’s beating heart—the one ensuring that every project not only meets high standards of craftsmanship but also leaves clients feeling cared for. To Tami, quality isn’t just about applying paint to walls; it’s about respecting a client’s home or business, attending to their needs, and leaving the space cleaner, brighter, and better than before.

Her reach extends beyond the job site. Tami is often the one drawing up quotes, responding to calls, organizing schedules, and engaging in community outreach. For her, work has never been just about financial gain—it’s about creating meaningful impact, both for her neighbours and her colleagues. This dedication naturally carries over into her volunteer work and community involvement, where she invests her time generously.

At the heart of it all, Tami thrives when surrounded by friends and family. She and her husband have cultivated their backyard into a welcoming oasis—an intergenerational gathering space where stories are shared, meals enjoyed, and bonds strengthened.

For Tami, life is best lived when we help each other, when we pick up where others cannot, and when we create space for everyone at the table. This philosophy, as much as her professionalism, is what shapes Prima Painting into the family-like company it is today.
