"I was looking for a painting contractor to paint the exterior of our home. The house is 2200 sq.ft. and is built into a hillside in the Hollywood Hills. The house is 100 years old and has multiple levels and I felt it could be a challenge reaching some of the areas. After contacting Bob, he scheduled an appointment, with me, for a review of the required work. He was very quick to provide me with an estimate and provided it, to me, before leaving for his next appointment. Initially, I felt the quote lacked some detail and information and I didn't want any surprises with added costs as the potential job commenced. I e-mailed Bob and spoke with him and he was very helpful to provide clarity and scope to the job so that neither of us had any surprises. I was not in any big rush to schedule and Bob was very good at staying in contact with me and scheduling the job when it was going to be most convenient for me. About a week prior to the beginning of the job, Bob came back over to do another walk through so that he could plan his crew (s) accordingly. He let me know how many people he planned to have and how many days it should take. We revisited the process and expectations. This was very good for me, as communication on a large project, like this, helps to put me at ease and experience less stress. On the start date (as well as throughout the job) Bob and his crew showed up on time and ready to work. We went over the project, again, with the two foremen that Bob had on the job. I wanted to be sure that they all understood what we expected of them and that I needed daily communication. For example, we have cats in the house and the crew was going to need doors and windows opened at various times for prep and painting. I wanted to have a schedule so that we could coordinate where the cats were being kept while various doors/windows were opened. Day 1 started with power washing and beginning prep of stucco (repairing cracks, removing peeling paint, etc) I had a good experience with one of his foremen and was having communication and sloppiness problems with the other. I contacted Bob that evening and he arrived, promptly, the following morning to review my concerns and get a reset with a portion of his crew. Some of the problems were trash and materials all over the place, windows and doors painted shut and limited to no communication. On the flip side, the other foremen was outstanding, providing information, updates and keeping a neat work area and taking care to prep areas appropriately. Day 2 - we had a good conversation and reset with the crew. The day progressed in a very good and professional manner. I was very happy that Bob took my concerns seriously and he addressed it without any time wasted or excuses. Subsequent Days - The work started moving along nicely, but then we had more problems with one of the foremen, again, as we were experiencing two different jobs. Excellent from one foremen and sloppy and lack of communication from the other. We contacted Bob, again, and asked him to remove part of the crew for the balance of the job. He listened to our concerns, we showed him the items that caused us concern and he wasted no time in removing part of his crew from our project. He reworked another project and brought in a separate 2nd crew for the next day. I must say, the final crew he had on this job was amazing. They were professional, worked with care and precision and made us very happy. You might ask why I would rate this company with an "A" when we experienced problems with part of the crew. Well, the concern and actions presented by Bob made this very easy to rate them with an "A". There was no argument, there were not any excuses. He listens to his customer and does his best to make you happy with the job. As the job wound down to the final day, Bob, one of the foremen and I walked the job, from top to bottom. We identified a punch list of items to do before final payment was made. Each item was addressed to my expectations and approval. The house looks GREAT, we will definitely hire Berger's Painting, again, for another of our properties. These large jobs always have something go awry, but Bob and his crew were there to correct and make the customer happy. I can't thank him and foreman, Marvin, enough. We are very happy. Thank you!"

"It was fabulous dealing with Wilson at Professional Painting. It’s nice to have someone come in, immediately get to work, and finish leaving the room clean, all the while doing a tremendous job with the painting. Hassle-free from the booking all the way to completion of the job!"

"We just had our house painted by Dream Painting, and I truly cannot express how impressed we are with the entire experience—from beginning to end. From the initial request for a quote, Paul was incredibly easy to work with. He was open, honest, and transparent about everything, especially the reasoning behind Dream Painting’s use of only the highest-quality paint. From day one, he made it clear that they weren’t interested in doing anything less than a job we could all be proud of—and they delivered on that promise in every way. Claire in the office was absolutely amazing. Despite some scheduling challenges caused by my HOA (and me), she handled everything smoothly. Whether I had questions about colors, scheduling, or anything else, she was always polite, professional, prompt, and a joy to work with. Roberto, the project supervisor for our home, deserves the highest praise. His dedication to customer service is rare and admirable. We had multiple conversations throughout the process about everything from unexpected issues to color decisions and prep work. He always made time to explain the pros and cons of any choice we faced and genuinely worked to find the best solution—even if it meant more work for him or his crew. What really stood out was how he treated my home like it was his own. Roberto has an incredible eye for detail and clearly has years of high-quality painting experience. He constantly inspected the work and caught things I never would have noticed—then made sure they were addressed properly, not just quickly patched. On many occasions, he voluntarily created more work for himself to ensure perfection. Even though he was frequently hands-on with the crew—prepping, painting, or overseeing progress—he always made time to communicate with me. Whether by call or text, I never waited more than an hour for a response. Dream Painting is lucky to have someone like Roberto representing them. He treated me like I was his only client and genuinely acted like he owned the company. I got five quotes before starting this project. Price is always a factor when it comes to something as major as painting the entire exterior of your home. But from my first interaction with Paul and Claire, I had a feeling this company was different—and I was 100% right. Not only did they pressure wash and thoroughly prep the entire home, but they also used top-of-the-line Dunn-Edwards paint. To my surprise, their quote actually came in as the lowest of the five. My wife and I absolutely love the final result. We will never use anyone else for painting—Dream Painting is our go-to from now on, and we’ll specifically be asking for Roberto. If you're even thinking about having paint work done, give Dream Painting a call. You won’t be disappointed. In fact, it may be one of the best home improvement decisions you ever make."

"Immediately I knew Jose’s Painting would be the company to not only bring my home back to life, but would protect it to SUSTAIN the impact of future elements, due to the proposal that was written with extensive care as to HOW they were going to get the house back into shape and WHAT they were going to use. My home has not been painted or stuccoed since the early 80's it needed TLC. This FAMILY OWNED company makes you feel like you are part of the family. Jose aka “Pops” had extensive details of how to make the project come together, while his son Jose had the modern perspective of how to keep the project in current times. The foremen, Elvis explained every detail whenever we had questions or requests. Allen, Gochi, and Ozzy showed up everyday with professionalism and care. The whole team is trustworthy and relatable. I will NOT use any other painting/stucco/interior/exterior specialist for any future project. The care and detail the team provided went above and beyond. WORTH every penny! This one is for the WIN!"

"Specialty Design Coatings company Highly recommend! Quick service & very trustworthy. Worked with Kavehsay Yar (owner) Specialty Design Coatings, and his team of expert painters led by Antonio Padilla. Both men were very knowledgeable about other potential issues before getting into the actual job of painting my house and refreshing (staining and sealing) my homes entry sidewalk. Antonio's team was very professional and were great to work with. They were always on time and finished the job when they promised. Their work was excellent and they cleaned up after each days work and also a thorough cleanup when the project was completed. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone needing an excellent painting team and company."

"This team did an incredible painting the exterior of my home and applying a stain to my expansive deck. It was a complete makeover. They did it fast, economically, and beautifully. They checked in afterwards and ensured it was finished to my liking. I would use them again and again."

"Oscar and his assistant did stellar work. My kitchen was a mess. It had been previously painted several times without proper sanding and attention to detail by my Landlord. Oscar was so easy going and calm about the whole thing. It took a day less than projected and the clean up and attention to detail was perfect. I would and will hire him again!"

"I have worked with several painters in the past and hands down I had the best experience with iHue. They are highly detailed in their work and extremely professional. They always finished exactly when they said they would. And their prices are very fair for the amount of work they did for me."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Marina Del Rey, CA

You'll need about two gallons of paint to fully cover your kitchen cabinets with two coats. Since each gallon covers around 350 square feet, it's a good idea to measure your cabinets or use a paint calculator to determine exactly how much you'll need. Starting with one or two coats of primer and then applying two to three layers of paint will give you a flawless, durable finish. Using high-quality paint can reduce the number of coats needed and provide a long-lasting finish.

The best type of paint for your kitchen cabinets is latex paint because it applies evenly and creates a durable finish. If you're painting wood surfaces and need extra adhesion, acrylic paint is a great alternative. We don't recommend oil-based paint for residential use due to its VOC emissions. For finishes, go with eggshell, semi-gloss, gloss, or satin, as matte finishes aren't as durable or as easy to clean.

The best method for painting kitchen cabinets is spray painting because it gives you a smooth, even finish without brush strokes. While brushes and rollers can work, they often leave marks and require more effort. If you're aiming for a professional look, spray painting is your best bet to enhance the beauty and durability of your cabinets.
