"If you're looking to hire a painter, don't walk -- run and hire Jose Rosales! Jose, Jose Jr. and their crew could not have provided a better experience for me and my family! Besides doing incredible work at a very competitive price, they are as professional and friendly as any vendor I've ever hired. I had them paint the entire outside of my two-story home, and had them replace a large amount of rotted trim wood. They also repaired and painted rain damaged walls and ceilings in my house, and lastly, painted our French doors and two bedrooms. Everything was done on time and with great care. You can tell that Jose only hires painters with a strong work ethic, as they were always on time (or early), always polite, and always eager to make sure we were happy with the work. At the end of every day they cleaned up immaculately. Again, I couldn't have had a better experience with Jose and his team, and I would hire them again without hesitation. 5 Stars!!"

"It went perfectly. Rick Jamison Painting's employees were here on time, they worked with us on the "look" of the garage door, and simply did a beautiful job. We were very happy with the results, and will be looking to Rick Jamison painting for all our custom painting work from now on! Jane McGregor"

"Excellent! Dieogo is very knowledgable& skilled in repairing & prepping wood for priming & 2 coats of paint. The same goes for metal such as gates. I’be owned property for over 50 years & Plancheck painting is by far the best I’ve hired. Owner Diego takes a lot of pride in his work, so we will be calling again."

"The painting job went great.  The two painters, Lester and Carlos, showed up promptly at 8am each day and kept me informed regarding the work for the day.  The whole project took 3 days.  My main concern was for my master bedroom, which had some spots and wear and tear on the walls.  Lester addressed the issue with priming the walls and painting.  They helped me move furniture away from the walls and put it back after painting."

We make finding a painter easy. Simply 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.

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.

Painters usually supply their own paint. They have access to contractor discounts and usually buy in bulk, meaning you pay less for higher quality paint. You should still ask what kind they use and do a little research to make sure you approve.

Choosing between rolling or spraying an exterior depends on a lot of factors, including climate, wind, siding type, house shape and height. Your pro will know which method provides better results.
