James is very friendly and polite does a great job and is willing to come back and fix any issues like bleed through or a missed spot. I asked for something strange i guess when i asked for my wood chimney to be painted a dark red color. James did it but let me know if i didnt like it he would come back and change it. I love it.

I hired James for a hard job of painting my roof eves on my 1909 craftsman style home. It was a difficult, but James worked very hard and really exceeded my expectations with his great work. The paint job looks amazing! I recommend him without reservation for your painting needs. Mark Y.

We had James paint two bedrooms for us in August. He was reliable, professional and wonderful to work with. He seemed to know his business and made great suggestions. We were very happy with the job he did and plan on hiring him again soon for a remodel project we are working on.

James has painted interior, exterior, bricks, rain gutters and some of our friend's projects. He is clean, honest, and fast. He just finished the interior of a duplex I rent out and it is like new. I have no qualms recommending James. He is worth every dollar spent.
