Star Painting Services

Star painting power washed and painted the whole exterior of our house 5 years ago. It has held up extremely well. We had some damage recently and called them to repair it. They were incredibly responsive & completed all the work going above and beyond in honoring our warranty on the work. Often times one is disappointed that people don't stand behind their work, but Star painting did - 5 years later - and even when the damage was not related to their work. I recommend them fully to anyone looking for quality work, and professionalism with customers. The cost of service quoted in this review is the original cost - they did not charge us for the recent repairs which was incredible!

I hired this paint service because of the ratings on Angie's list. I now wonder if all the ratings are fake. Narendra came to my home and gave an ok quote. I decided to go with him because of all his promises: good surface preparation, 5 year guarantee etc. The owner doesn't do any of the work, he just dropped one Mexican off at my house that clearly had no experience. The only thing he did to prepare was to power wash paint chips all over the place. My garage was filthy, every inch was covered in paint that flaked off from power washing. No sanding was done even though it was promised, a broom or brush wasn't even used. When he painted, he didn't tape anything off so there is paint all over my deck wires and all over my exterior Windows. The front of my home wasn't prepared, he just used caulk and then painted on top of everything. My deck chipped within days and the front of my house started to rot because the paint didn't stay on. I got narendra to come back to my home to redo the work, and he told me his warranty didn't cover exterior!!! He wanted to charge me the same amount again, and tried to pressure me into signing his contract. He quoted me the price again and handed me a pen. I was quite offended at how unprofessional he is, and how stupid he must think I am. He said no one would do a better job, but I saw his work and it didn't last a week! He was the worst. Back to the warranty, he said it would cover exterior when I first hired him, and I only hired him because of the warranty, but he will not warranty his work. I suggest you get it in writing and hold him accountable. He wasted my time and my money. I just redid all my painting again via Craigslist and the work is far superior to his at 1/3 the price. He is dishonest and will give you terrible work. He is not worth it. Trust me. I have major regrets.

This company did a great job.

On time, friendly, high quality job, at a reasonable price. I will recommend to my neighbors.

I was very impressed with Star Painting from our first contact. I had received a couple other estimates for the project, which came in at least double the price of Star Painting's, and didn't really want to spend $3,000 to paint the trim on our house. Star Painting came out within a few days of my estimate request and gave me a written estimate on the spot which included power washing the whole house - an add on from the other service providers I contacted. <br /> The crew came to power wash on a Thursday and began painting the next day. They finished on Monday and left no trace that they had been there. Everything was clean and all of the work Star Painting did looked excellent.  <br /> To find a painter in our area that is responsive, thorough and will get the job done without breaking the bank has been difficult. I'm very glad I found Star Painting and would use them in the future without hesitation. <br />

Did a nice job; punctual, competent etc. I'd use them again and recommend their services <br />

We have used Star a Painting several times before in past years and have always been satisfied with the work performed and prices! This time was no exception. Thank you Narendra!! Highly recommended.

They were very professional and the price was as quoted. He inadvertently broke a spotlight, but he had someone come fix it immediately. It really shows that they own up to a mistake.

Very good. <br /> Immediately responded to my call. He came, looked around and gave an estimate. <br /> Accommodated  my request to prepone the start date and finish the job so <br /> that I can move in. Price quoted was much less than the 2 other <br /> contractors. <br /> Made recommendations. <br /> Later when my younger daughter changed her mind at the last minute and wanted a <br /> different color... cool ... no problem... accommodated the request with a <br /> smile. <br /> Highly .. highly recommend. <br /> Thanks Angie's list for providing such excellent contractor. <br />

We were not pleased with the work of this company.  While the price is right, there were so many things that went wrong on the job that I'm not sure if I can remember all of them. <br /> First of all, when I hire a painter, my assumption is that they will work on my job only until the project is complete.  This was not the case.  The painters left the job for days on end, being called to other locations.  The work was sloppy in numerous places - we had to keep calling them back to correct things.  I also had bedroom furniture damaged when the workers moved my end tables to another room - they didn't take the care necessary to protect them.  Walls under light covers/cable covers were not painted - they were left the original color of the rooms.  My bedroom wall has cracked in one place already - as they didn't do the repair needed in that area evidently to prevent that from happening.  Paint has chipped in other areas - something which should not happen so soon after completion. <br /> At exterior painting they also didn't take care to protect elements of the home properly.  I had paint spatter covering newly installed railings at my front walkway, stains applied incorrectly on wood lattice which they installed (numerous empty areas - should have used a spray gun for that or painted it before installation), totally ruined my exterior balcony door with using too thick a layer of paint on it.  There were paint brush hairs all over the door as well, paint on screens (why they weren't removed or covered is beyond me), spattered paint on a custom mailbox, and the same on our house number plaque.   <br /> There is more, but I'll just leave it at it was an extremely sloppy job which took literally WEEKS to complete and I was told it would take less than 1 week.   <br /> While there were some circumstances that made the job take longer (some weather related and some of his workers having personal problems), the amount of errors exceeded what would be considered excusable. <br /> The only good thing I can say is that from far away, the house looks ok and, the owner Phil (others mention a different name, not sure why) tried to be as pleasant as possible throughout this. <br />

They did a great job. They were on time and was responsive. When we said they missed a spot, they came back and fixed the spot. I would hire them again. Their pricing was reasonable.

whole house exterior paint. |The owner, Narandra is honest and responsible. His team did a decent job under supervision. |We are pleased with the results.

They were arrived at about 10 AM, the desired time as one of us is a late to bed and late riser, discussed details with me, were checked by the owner every other day, kept the place meticulously clean.  There are one extremely small spot where a bit more fill would have smoothed out the surface (where wood overlaid stucco - I inspected things carefully but missed it first time around) but the place looks excellent.  Issue is how well it will hold up. Only time will tell.  <br /> If I asked that something be done that was not obviously in the contract, e.g., repairing the damaged stucco on one of the planters in the front of the house, I spoke to the owner and he quickly picked the best person (or brought in someone the next day) to complete the task.  I would use Star again and suggested that my neighbor consider using their services for interior painting.

Excellent <br />

Response by owner was prompt.  Workers were neat and on time.  Very workmanlike.  The painter, Sasha (spelling?), was especially neat and careful.

ok <br />

Star Painting Services painted the exterior of my house and garage.  They were very professional and easy to work with during this project. <br /> The siding on my house is painted cedar shakes.  The old paint was peeling in many areas and required substantial preparation prior to repainting. Star Painting Services started with a thorough power wash and then scraped off all loose paint. All exposed wood surfaces were prime coated with an oil based primer and then topped with two coats of exterior latex.  There were a couple of south and west facing areas that needed a third coat and Star Painting was very reasonable in handling this request even though the contract was specifically for two coats.  They also power sanded and repainted an iron porch railing for a very reasonable additional cost. Every evening, the painting crew cleaned up and carefully stored all their equipment before leaving for the day. <br /> With all the rain during the month of June, it was very difficult to find a period for exterior painting. As soon as the weather cleared, Star Painting promptly contacted me and we set a start date for the project. They showed up on schedule and worked continuously until the job was completed. <br /> I would recommend Star Painting for any exterior painting job and will certainly use them again for future painting needs.

It was excellent. The gentleman who was the head of the company was very polite, professional and informative. It was a pleasure doing business with him.

I had a fabulous experience with Narendra and Star Painting - what a great company to work with.  They did a fantastic job on all fronts.  To prepare for the project, Narendra told me that all I had to do was pick out the paint colors - nothing else -  and he was spot on!  The staff moved every piece of furniture, every wall hanging, covered everything with drop cloths, took off wall plates and electrical outlet covers - did a fabulous job prepping and painting - then put everything back and cleaned up after themselves.  Knowledgeable and competitively priced - and friendly as well. They even helped me solve a few minor trim and caulking issues in the bathroom and our landing that were bugging me.  I will definitely call on Star Painting again and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for quality work.  THIS is what Angie's List is all about - connecting folks to quality service providers. I'm not sure I would have found them if not for this service (they were located a bit far away) and I couldn't be happier - thank you Star Painting and Angie's List! <br />

My overall experience with Star painting Services was excellent. The quality of the work was outstanding. I appreciate that any time I checked on the progress Sacha and Jose would explain what was going on and would give me time tables on when things would be completed. They constantly communicated and when I was unsure about what was needed they either made recommendations or told me exactly what to get.  I would recommend these guys to anyone needing painting or wallpaper removal done. <br />

Excellent service , very prompt , thorough and careful <br /> <br />
