Bales Recognized Among Best and Brightest®

Bales is a 2022 Winner for Best and Brightest Companies to Work For®! The Best and Brightest® honors companies that demonstrate exceptional human resource practices and employee engagement.

As a family-owned business, Bales has always been dedicated to treating employees right. When Steve and Mike Bales founded Bales in 1978, they didn’t set out to be the biggest or fanciest shop. They just wanted to solve their customers’ problems and take care of their employees.

More than 40 years later, we are thrilled to be recognized for these same values as one of the Best and Brightest Companies to Work For®!

At Bales, our highly skilled team is the backbone of the business. We make sure they love what they do, have a work-life balance, and enjoy the rewards of their hard work. That’s just how we roll.

Happy employees make happy customers. Together, we’re committed to helping you achieve the best surface treatment for your needs—each and every time you work with us!
