Olson's Painting
5.0
Olson's Painting crew did an excellent job of preparing the rooms for painting, painting each of the rooms and cleaning up afterwards. My house is old, so it was important that they took all of the precautions, so that their paint crew and I would not be exposed to any lead paint. Olson's Painting was certified to paint under these conditions, and they knew what they had to do to be safe.

Green Valley Painting Inc.
5.0
Our home needed repair to wood trim, staining of our pergola and other wood surfaces, as well as exterior painting. Everyone at Green Valley Painting was very professional and incredibly accommodating. Pricing was very reasonable as well. We dealt mainly with Kevin, Sales Manager, who addressed all our questions and concerns. Armando led the work team and made sure that everything was done to our specifications. We were extremely pleased with Green Valley Painting. We highly recommend them and we would also contract with them when we need painting in the future. We rate them 5 stars hands down!

QUALITY PAINTERS
5.0
Darrin and his team have painted 3 houses and one duplex exteriors for us and has done one very large interior for us. His work is timely and neat. The interior of the 3000 square foot house was something we had to have done immediately due to a family situation and he rearranged his schedule for us. I always enjoy working with Darrin and it's good to have someone I can trust 100%.

I would highly recommend MAV Perfect Paint. They provide excellent service, extremely reliable, and their quality of work is unmatched. They pay attention to the details and leave the area cleaner than when they arrive. I've worked with them on several properties now for both interior, exterior paint, and cabinetry, and the work is always excellent. They are my first call on any property that needs quality paint.

Great work from Daniel and his team. Innovation Painting took care of our home in San Francisco. Prompt, friendly, and great attention to detail. After they were done painting, Daniel walked me around the property to go over things they uncovered while painting, like suggested repairs, which I very much appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Innovation Painting. Thanks!

CertaPro Painters of San Jose Central
5.0
I was very happy with exterior paint work. They deligently masked all windows and doors prior to priming and painting. Scraping old loose paint prior to painting. I don't see any flaking anymore. The workers came on time every morning on time. Interior room painting was nothing extra ordinary. I would liked to have discussion of flat paint versus something more with sheen for selection instead of just flat finish without asking me. Overall, I'll definitely use Certa Pro in the future for exterior painting.

Stanford Painting
5.0
This is the second time I have used Stanford Painting, and in both cases I was very happy with the results. They charged a fair price and the service and quality of the work was top notch. This time I they painted the trim on the our house. In some cases it needed scraping and even repair. They did all that and did an excellent job of painting. The crew was very professional, did not get any paint on areas they shouldn't have, and cleaned up every day. There was a full crew every day so that the job was finished quickly. I highly recommend Stanford Painting.

Narvaez Painting Inc

Carlos and another person showed up on time as promised and completed the house painting job in 4 days. Our house paint had previous paint that was peeling of and needed to be scraped. The damaged siding planks were replaced as promised. Carlos created a new mailslot within the planks. He also replaced the rotting door jamb and installed weatherstripping that I provided him. He provided color samples and completed the task as per plan. Finishing was well done including painting the house number and mail slot.

Recent Review: When we wanted to remodel our kitchen and master bathroom, we wanted a turn-key company that would do everything for us, help us design our dream kitchen and bathroom, select good materials and products. We found it in Everlast Construction - Ari was great at our first meeting he was knowledgeable explain the whole process how they work what they do what they don't do. He cover most of the topics we wanted to ask and in the end we choose him over 3 other companies. We have a beautiful kitchen and bathroom that exceeded our initial ideas (it really is stunning, with unique details in the design and materials that we never would have come up with on our own.) I highly recommend Everlast construction. Their project management team is very professional and responsive, design team is awesomely creative, quality of work and products used is great. they did the whole work 100% in house no subcontractors that's make the process faster eaiser and much better.

Recent Review: Fantastic work done by a professional crew. My wife and I met with Chris from Magnolia to get an estimate on vinyl siding. We had recently received an estimate to paint our house, but the quality of our cedar siding required some heavy duty sanding and many replacements. As an alternative to paint, we reached out to Magnolia based on others' reported experiences on Angie's List, plus the photos they've taken of the other projects looked amazing. At the completion of the job, I can safely say that the pics don't lie. I feel like we have a brand new house! I was amazed on how smoothly the entire process went, even when we requested changes be made mid-job. Chris and company provided an top notch experience from the get-go. Other remodeling companies take note, this is how you do it.

Recent Review: James and his crew did a fantastic job painting my house. They were professional, efficient and friendly from day one through to the end of the job. I had been putting off painting the exterior of my house because I thought it would be a big hassle. I was very pleasantly surprised. James and crew came every morning when they said they would and they meticulously prepared my house before painting and now that they are done I have a beautifully painted house that looks like new. I would recommend House Painting Inc to anyone who wants to have their house painted.

Recent Review: One painter arrived within 15 minutes of the scheduled appointment time, verified what was to be painted, removed old paint, took a paint chip to match the paint color (and new storm door), primer and painted areas, and cleaned up. Smooth, no-fuss job! :-)

Award 2020Super Service Award
Recent Review: Price was great. Work was a little sloppy though - they ended up getting paint on my brick entryway. They were very professional and responsible about coming with a power washer to cleam it up but it never came totally off. The paint of the gate got on nearby plants and wall of a different color. The painter tried to paint over it with the garage door paint and it looks ok but when wet you really see the difference. On the patio doors some paint got on the windows in the doors and on the wooden deck.

Recent Review: A++ I'm very happy and satisfied with the work that was done for by M&M construction. I'm a retired contractor and a veteran so my expectations were of high standards and that's exactly what I got. The guys were properly skilled for the job and very talented too. With the managers designing and planning help , My bathroom came out just wonderful. I was impressed by the quality of finish and timing . Also the exterior stucco repair before the paint work was excellent and the texture matching was incredible. Take It from me, Very good price and quality workmanship. I recommend highly to those who consider any kind of remodel.

Exterior Painting Q & A:

How much does exterior painting near me cost?

The cost of exterior painting largely depends on the size of the home. In general, expect to pay:

  • $1,500 to $3,100 for single-story homes.
  • $3,600 to $4,100 for two-story homes.
  • $4,600 to $6,100 for three-story homes.

There are other factors such as angled surface areas, the condition of your home's walls and the type of surface being painted. In all instances, proper surface preparation is a large part of the work done by real paint professionals. Expect to pay more for surfaces that are in poor shape. 

How much does painting brick or concrete near me cost?

Homes with brick or concrete exterior walls will cost between $500 to $2,000 to paint based on the wear patterns on the brick, sun exposure, and square footage. 

Important considerations with any stone or brick: whether the surface must be prepared with special sealants or primer first. 

How much does painting stucco near me cost?

Painting stucco costs between $900 for 500 square feet to $3,000 for 1,500 square feet. Expect to pay significantly for the preparation work needed to get stucco ready for a beautiful final paint coat. Cleaning stucco and filling cracks is labor intensive. 

How much does painting wood or cedar siding cost?

Preparation work on wood or cedar siding means costs will run, in the $700 to $2,000 range for 250 to 1,000 square feet. Replacing clapboards or filling holes from insect damage increases costs. 

How much does painting metal siding near me cost?

Aluminum or galvanized steel siding will generally cost $400 to $1,500 for wall surfaces of 250 to 1,000 square feet. Metal paints beautifully, once the surface is cleaned and primed properly. 

Is there lead paint in my home?

It depends. Homes with exterior paint from 1978 or earlier may have lead in the paint. You are legally responsible for hiring a lead paint abatement professional under the 2008 law.

The lead paint removal company must be certified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). If in doubt, have it checked out by a painting company near you. Checkout the EPA's Lead Resource Center for details on lead paint.

Do painters near me offer "green" paint alternatives?

Yes most painters have no problem buying eco-friendly paint alternatives. Many offer it anyways, but ask them for this option. Experts at Green America point to eco-friendly exterior paints that can reduce homeowner risk of inhaling toxins in paints.

All exterior paints have fungicides in them, plus some other concerning chemicals:

  • VOCs — Volatile Organic Compounds release potentially harmful chemicals into the atmosphere.
  • Pigments — Select paints with organic pigments to avoid toxic chemicals.
  • Biocides — Meant to extend paint's shelf life, these chemicals can still be given off as many as five years after paint application.

How much does painting James Hardie siding near you cost?

Budget for $600 to $2,000 for 250 square feet up to around 1,000 square feet. Expect to pay approximately the same costs as repainting vinyl siding. Angie's List suggests two coats to achieve at least 10 years of fresh color. Hardie siding — fiber cement siding — has a baked-on paint finish, but the manufacturer suggests repainting after routine cleaning no longer restores the original color to your satisfaction.

How much does painting vinyl siding near me cost?

Expect a range of $600 for 250 square feet to around $2,000 for around 1,000 square feet. The cost to paint vinyl siding is generally lower than costs for painting other materials. The surface needs only to be clean and free of visible damage - paint typically adheres easily and goes on smoothly.

How can I find a great painter near me?

Follow these steps:

  1. Always get at least three or more price quotes near you, with details spelled out (paint brand, primer, number of coats, and so on). It will help you get a great price for your area.
  2. Read online reviews, ratings and grades. You cannot go wrong doing a bit of homework before hiring a professional painter.
  3. Ask if your painter carries liability insurance, is licensed (if necessary) and has workers compensation coverage.
  4. If a company near you doesn't have online reviews, ask them for referrals, previous customers and/or examples of previous work.

Exterior painting can be the perfect facelift for your home. On the other hand, if done incorrectly, exterior painting is a path to disappointment (if improperly applied), embarrassment (for the wrong shade), or legal woes (if lead paint is involved).
