Painting homes in Pleasant Hill
Pleasant Hill grew quickly after World War II and incorporated in 1961, so much of the city is mid-century ranch and tract housing alongside newer homes and townhomes. Homes of that age usually carry several layers of earlier paint, and the finish only lasts if the prep is right: washing, scraping loose paint, sanding, caulking, and priming bare wood before the first finish coat. Painting By Ken has painted East Bay homes since 1974 and serves every Pleasant Hill neighborhood.

What East Bay homeowners say about our painters
Quoted word for word from the platforms where they were posted.
“We just had Painting By Ken paint the exterior of three houses. The projects managed by Chris and the three crews did an outstanding job. They were thorough, professional and paid attention to detail. All three houses look great. I highly recommend Painting By Ken.”
“Ken and Chris did a great job on our interior house painting! We were up against a tight time frame to get our painting done before our move in date. Ken was able to come out right away to give us a quote and his pricing was very competitive. His knowledge and experience he shared during the walk through sealed the deal for me. He was able to get a crew out very quickly and they got the job done within a week As promised. The team did a great job prepping the walls (were some cracks before but aren't there now) and Ken's recommendation on a shade of white was perfect. Will definitely be using Ken and Chris in the future!”
“I was on a tight schedule to sell my house and buy a smaller place. Received multiple bids to prepare my house for sale. ... I had about a week to get my house ready for sale - his team was like a well-oiled machine that split up the tasks and painted the whole house plus the kitchen cabinets in less than a week. ... Only took one open house to sell my house!”
