"We Recommend Browder….. The exterior of our garage door was in bad shape after less than 8 years since the original brown paint was turning red and running down to the ground. Plus we needed to redo baseboards in the house due to lots of wear and tear. Since we’ve seen trucks from Browder throughout our development and reviews were very good, we got in touch. Stars: - Overall: 5 - The Start: 5 - Explanations: 5 - Scheduling: 5 - Process: 5 - Workmanship: 5 - Communication: 5 - Cleanliness: 5 - Cost: 4 - The Start: I called on a Monday and scheduled an appointment with Nick Nystrom, one of their Project Managers, for that Thursday. - Explanations: Nick assessed the situation, both inside and out, and made arrangements to send us large samples of paint (and stucco for a small amount of damage) colors by overnight mail. Nick was a very easy guy to deal with. - Scheduling: Simple. Browder is usually very busy with multiple crews (currently they’ve got 30-35 painters), but they had an opening the following Tuesday and Wednesday so we grabbed it. The scheduler noted “your lead painter will be Juan Camarillo. He’s one of our best”. - Process: Nick the Project Manager arrived at 730 AM on Tuesday with the team of Juan and Reynaldo. With booties over their shoes, they moved furniture and covered the flooring…tile with carpeting in the bedrooms…with plastic sheeting. The garage door and most of the baseboards were done the first day, Tuesday. The rest was finished Wednesday morning followed by moving things back into place and a thorough cleanup. - Workmanship: Very good. Many people stopped to admire and ask about the garage door since the problem seems to be an epidemic in our neighborhood (picture #1). The baseboards look brand new…although some sections were “overpainted” and had “granules” hanging down (picture #2). I called Nick who asked Juan to investigate. Juan trimmed them in 15 minutes. I must say Juan Camarillo (there are a few Juans at Browder) is a master with 11 years at Browder who took the same care in our house as he would in his own. His assistant, Reynaldo, was an exterior painter for 8 years and fairly new to the interior. There was a difference in skill and care. - Communication: Excellent. Nick and Juan stayed in touch to keep us up-to-date and patiently answered questions. - Cleanliness: Really good. Even during the painting process indoors, they did a fine job. - Cost: Reasonable. A bit more than $3,900. All in all it was a very good experience. Our next job will be the walls and we’ll definitely ask for Juan C. if we go with Browder again. NOTE: When Juan and Reynaldo moved a dresser in the primary bedroom, one of the legs was bent. I couldn’t fix it myself so I spoke to Nick who sent Joe, 1 of 2 Field Supervisors, to investigate. Between the 2 of us, we got it back in workable shape."
