From start to finish, everyone at McCarthy was friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely helpful, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Our painters, William and Celestino, were absolutely fantastic. They were extremely detailed, professional, and meticulous in their work. They took the time to prep everything correctly, answered all my questions, and treated my home with care the entire time. The results came out great--clean lines, smooth finish, and a fresh look that completely transformed the exterior of our house. I would highly recommend McCarthy to anyone looking for a high-quality paint job, especially if you value craftsmanship and great communication. These guys truly know what they're doing!

From the owner: Personalized service. We focus on the details of each unique situation, address the challenges that…read moreeach project may present and meet individual homeowners expectations. The majority of our painting work is repainting or finishing of older homes. Our prep work is superior in addition to the paint application and finish results. Most applications involve brush and rollers and if the situation is appropriate spraying will be performed. Unlike a lot of painting contractors spray application is not a large part of our jobs.So instead of spending time and energy in protecting the surroundings for potential over spray problems we focus on the prep and painting work. The large majority of our clientele through the years is via " word of mouth" and are repeat customers. We have a lot clients who have used our services for more than 25 years.

I was really worried about hiring the right company to bring them back to life because they are 30 years old and imported from Italy (aka irreplaceable). We were provided a reasonable quote and decided to move forward with Fresh Coat. Despite a few hiccups during the project, Kim/Mario and their team had our happiness top of mind and it was clear their priority was making sure the finished job would exceed expectations. They realized there was an issue with the stain before I did and quickly corrected it. Everything turned out so incredibly well and the doors/windows look brand new. We won't hesitate to hire them for any painting needs in the future!

If you want a custom piece of art, Andrea is the person to go to for sure!

In search of a new painter, we hired Perry based on the numerous positive reviews he had online,…read moreand we're so glad we did. From the beginning, Perry was an excellent communicator, accommodating, and his genuine passion for the craft was evident. We hired him to paint our garage ceiling, patch holes in the garage walls, and paint our new front door. From start to finish, we were continually impressed with his attention to detail. His prep work and painting were meticulous, and not a single detail was overlooked. In fact, Perry noticed small things we hadn't, like a 1/4" section of exposed stucco that became visible after installing the new front door -- and addressed it seamlessly. You would never know it was there. It's clear Perry truly loves what he does and cares deeply about customer satisfaction. Quality workmanship can be hard to find, and hiring Perry was the best decision we made in our search for a painter. We look forward to working with him again for future projects.

The pricing was very fair and they assured me that all permits needed for Oakland would be taken care of, which was something that Platypus (who quoted me an absolutely insane price) wasn't going to do. Jason & his team were amazing, especially since I was juggling a few other exterior home improvement projects at the same time. Paint selection was fun and easy, and the crew was courteous and got the job done quickly. When I'm ready to paint my home's interior, they will be my first call!

Damaged our neighbors' garden during one job, which distressed them a fair bit; we replaced the damaged plants with some impact to our wallet but none to our friendship. A few punch list items, middling responsive on those. A theoretical three year warranty with poor to no follow up on a couple of durability issues despite multiple outreach; we gave up after a while. Not a crisis. It's about time to paint both again, and we're not calling them for a quote, so figured we'd say that part out loud. We're not deeply unhappy, but not interested in working with them again. It was ... fine. ‍
