About Us
Anthony Federico Jr
Owner of the 2nd generation 'A Federico Painting' company, started professional painting and paperhanging in 1978 with his father (when he was just a teenager), working as a part time apprentice for the company. In 1980, upon graduating from Washington Twp. high school, Anthony began to work full time for the company and continued to work for the company for five years, until tragedy struck, and Anthony Federico Sr. passed away at the young age of 45 year old. Anthony Jr. being only 23 years old at the time, felt that he was too young to handle the responsibilities of owning the business, so the A. Federico Painting Co, went out of business and Anthony got a job working for a Cherry Hill residential painting painting contractor named Almark Painting Company.
In 1986, Anthony left Almark Painting Company and joined the Philadelphia Painters Union, (District Council #21). While as a union member, he perfected his skills by working on various jobs such as; Limerick Nuclear Power Plant, Franklin Mills Mall, Woodbridge Mall, Exton Mall, Nazareth Hospital, Albert Einstein Medical Center, University of Pennsylvania Hospital, St. Joseph’s University, Drexel College, The Provident National Bank and Conrail Law Offices to name a few. Additionally, he participated in many Center City Philadelphia Office renovations. Anthony was now a Journeyman! In 1989, he made the decision to leave the Painters Union and re-kindle his father's Company, graduating from being a painter/paperhanger employee, to being a full time business owner.
Titus Nilssen
Upon graduating in 2014 from Alexander Central High School (North Carolina), Titus enlisted in the US Marine Corps and served from 2014 to 2019. During his enlistment, he was stationed in Miramar, California and deployed to Kuwait twice. During active duty, he flew on missions into Iraq and Syria. After completing his 5 year enlistment as Sargent, Titus proudly left with an honorable discharge.
In 2020, Titus relocated to New Jersey to help take care of his grandmother. Shortly thereafter, Titus began working for a home improvements company doing various types of home improvements and repairs.
In July of 2021, Anthony offered Titus a job painting and shortly thereafter, he began his journey with A. Federico Painting. After serving a 5 year apprenticeship with the company (adding his military background into the equation), Titus has become one of the most professional painters in South Jersey. Not only is Titus a great painter, he is also a great employee, (the type of employee that most businesses look for, but can never find). Semper Fi!
