"Hernan and his company are the nicest group of people I have had the pleasure of meeting. They painted the entire interior of my home, remodeled my brick fireplace, installed hardwood floors, a kitchen backsplash, new toilets and vents in every bathroom, and built a fence in my backyard. They even helped me put together furniture I bought, showed me how to change my air filters, and explained how to maintain my septic system. The quality of their work is exceptional. Hernan really knows his craft. He made suggestions I would have never thought of and went above and beyond to explain things and help me. I am so pleased with everything. The company is very trustworthy and honest. I will be hiring them again to paint my decks and build a luxury shower. There is nothing they cannot do."

"Thomas was amazing! He was able to come even before I was expecting him ( he worked me in & I really appreciated this). He was very professional & did weatherstripping on my front door as well as repairing my cabinets. We also discussed repairing & painting my back deck in the near future. I will definitely use him for all my future home projects. I highly recommend Thomas & his company! Sherry"

"I hired Steve and Michelle to paint the entire interior of my house, including all walls, doors, trim, garage walls, and the kitchen and master bathroom cabinets, to get the house ready to sell. It was truly a wonderful experience. They are both very sweet and professional. Not only was their cost extremely reasonable, there was excellent communication throughout the process. They provided their status at the end of every day, including providing pictures of their work. They deep cleaned my entire house before painting, and deep cleaned it after painting. I cannot recommend them enough!"

"Carlos & team is incredible on all fronts. Very good communication, high quality work, and budget friendly. Thankful to have come across CAF Renovation right in the nick of time as we were taken advantage of by a previous residential contractor and needed a high quality contractor to help remedy the issues immediately. Carlos did a fantastic job navigating the past mistakes and delivering a great final product and was never unfair at any point in the process. Will definitely be doing business with CAF again - very soon we hope!"

"It was as painless a project as is possible. Instead of recommending redoing my whole kitchen, he helped me update my kitchen in such a way it saved money and still lookrd like new cabinets. He also painted and fixed my stair banister to match my recently refinished hardwood floors. He communicated effectively & came back to fix a few small things quickly and easily to my 100% satisfaction."

"The exterior of my house was just repaired and painted by CA Custom Painting. I have had work done before but none like this. Carlos Sr and Jr are extremely professional, and skilled. First they gave me a competitive estimate in line with others I obtained. After accepting them to do the work the first thing they did was a thorough close-up inspection. When they found additional work that needed to be done, they took a picture and pointed out to me where the damage was located or showed me the damaged part that had carpenter bee or damage due to rot, Once the carpentry work was done, to my surprise, they even suggested that I repair my porch prior to painting it because it needed minor repairs that I was willing to accept as is. CA Custom Painting repaired the damaged area so that the total job would reflect positively on them and be much better for me. They worked all day, cleaned up daily and never caused any delays ,issues or problems. It felt like they painted my home as they would their own, they refused to take shortcuts. They sought and obtained perfection, the house looks brand new! I inspected their work multiple times each day, they welcomed all questions and took the time to explain their work. I am very pleased with the work done and would highly recommend CA Custom Painting to anyone that wants their home properly repaired and painted by true professionals."

They handled it all: tile for the floor and shower, granite countertop, shower and sink hardware installation, plus painting the walls, trim and crown molding. Also...they started when they said they would and it was done on-time. I highly recommend these guys."

Frequently asked questions
Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.
We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.
Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.
Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.
- Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
- Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
- Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
- Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
- Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
- Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
- Calculate paint coverage
- Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
- Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
- Sign a contract with the pro of your choice. You might need to make a down payment, usually 25% to 50% of the total project cost to cover material costs, but not all pros require this. Don’t pay for the entire project upfront.
- A complete inspection. Each pro takes a walk around your home to evaluate the condition of your current paint, the size of the job and any obstacles for accessing the site. They do this to see how much prep work they’ll need and estimate how long the job will take. The more thorough the inspection, the more accurate the quote.
- Color consultation. Expect each contractor to have varying color options and suggestions. However, you have the final say.
- Listen to the pro – they’re experts after all – but don’t get pushed into a color combination or finish type that you don’t want. Understand the different exterior paints or interior paint choices before your pro arrives.
- A rough estimate or complete quote. Finishing contractors vary here. Usually, they can quote straightforward projects on the spot. But some may need to take it back to their shop to run numbers and give you a detailed estimate with costs broken out. Neither method is better than the other, but just make sure to get multiple quotes.
- How long have you been in business? A long business history helps you avoid shoddy companies. It’s hard for a service business to stay in business if they don’t do good work.
- Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
- Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
- Do you have other work I can look at? Always check a portfolio or, in the case of painters, it’s better to look at work they did a few years ago to see how well it’s held up.
- How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
- How many people are in your crew? This is especially important if you work remotely. More people generally means more noise, but they’ll be done faster.
- Will I be in the way if I’m home during the painting? You usually won’t be in the way, but this question helps you understand what to expect while they’re working. They’ll need to lay down coverings and do a lot of prep work.
- Do you guarantee your work? Never hire a painter who doesn’t guarantee their work. This often means they’ll rush the prep work, since peeling never happens right away.
- What type of paint do you use, and how long is it rated to last? Different rooms need different paint and the exterior needs exterior paint. It comes in different grades with different guaranteed lifetimes.
- Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
