About DC 57

District Council 57 is an organization of over 2,500 members in Western Pennsylvania. We were formed in 1999 when Local Unions #6, #409, #530, #751, #2006, #479, #549, and #1968 with over 100 years of existence were combined into one council.

Our goal is to represent all of the individuals who wish to work at our trades in Western PA, and  to help them achieve a career with good wages, benefits, safety, and dignity in the workplace. Our staff and members partner with local contractors to bring you the best possible painting, wallcovering, drywall finishing, and installation services. 

We are open from 7 AM – 3 PM Monday through Friday.
