"Ken and his crew painted the outside of our Alamo home last spring. The prep work took longer than we expected, which turned out to be exactly the point. Two years later, the paint still looks like it was applied yesterday."

Common questions before you hire a painter

How long does an interior painting job usually take?

Most single-room interior projects run 2 to 4 days from setup to walk-through. Whole-house interior repaints typically run 1 to 2 weeks. Cabinet painting adds another week because of the multiple coats and cure time. During the estimate we give you a specific timeline for your project.

Do you provide free estimates?

Yes. Every estimate is free and includes a written proposal with materials, prep steps, coat count, and timeline. No obligation. Estimates typically happen within 3 business days of your request.

What areas do you serve?

Contra Costa County: Walnut Creek, Alamo, Danville, Lafayette, San Ramon, Pleasant Hill, Orinda, Martinez, Concord, Pittsburg, Antioch, and surrounding areas.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. California CSLB License #603312 for General Building and Painting/Decorating. Fully insured with general liability and workers compensation coverage. Verify our license at cslb.ca.gov.

What paint brand do you use?

Benjamin Moore is our primary brand for interior and exterior work because of its color range, coverage, and longevity in Bay Area conditions. For specific projects like cabinets we use Benjamin Moore Advance for its durability. We can accommodate other brand preferences when requested.

What is your warranty?

Every job includes a written workmanship warranty. Exact terms depend on the project scope and are documented in your proposal. See our warranty page for details.
