    Fernando A.

    Our 97 year old craftsman bungalow needed some love, so we had our house painted by Armando Del Valle and crew with A Reliable Painter. We were very happy with their work and the price was more than fair. Armando has painted many homes in California Heights and we've all been pleased. I think the photos speak for the quality and detail of their work. Communication with Armando and Jennifer was quick and responsive. They answered calls and texts promptly, and communicated whenever there were any questions or decisions to make. Their crew was on time, hard working, and friendly. They did a great job with the pre-painting prep work, which is very important for these old wood homes. Our home has a lot of detail with the dental work, window trims, etc.., and they did a nice job with all of that. I definitely recommend A Reliable Painter if you need work done on your home. At some point, our interior will also need a refreshing, and we will plan on contacting Armando again.

    Found Armando here on Yelp. His business demeanor is professional and he's a nice guy to talk to. Explained the work to be done clearly and when it would start. His wife gave a us a couple day reminder which is good practice instead of the customer reaching out to check if project was on schedule. Like clock work his guys arrived before start time each morning and put in a full days work for the entire week. Not a common thing today. Completely masked all things off and cleaned up at the end of each day sweeping up the droppings and dust with nothing lying about but all gathered and covered. His guys took care of the little things we pointed out without any issues but with okays and acknowledgement. Will also mention not a ton of over spray onto other surfaces wasting paint. Armando regularly showed up giving us some confidence we hired the right painters. Very happy with the work. Hope the stucco guys do as good as work.

    Armando and his crew were wonderful! Great attention to detail and very thorough in painting the exterior of our 100+ year-old craftsman, which really needed some work and prep prior to painting. Excellent communication and amazing job for a reasonable price. They really surpassed our expectations! Armando, Jennifer, and crew went out of their way to make sure we were happy with all aspects of their work. Highly skilled, reliable, hard-working, and very pleasant to communicate with. Will certainly hire them again for interior painting. Definitely recommend!!

    Armando and his crew did an excellent job with painting our house. All of the floors were covered, did an excellent job covering up knobs and whatever needed to be covered to prevent paint from going onto it. We also had drywall done (had 3 cutouts in the walls) and it was done so seamlessly and you can't even tell there was any type of hole. Armando's wife, Jennifer, communicated with us right away with everything so we weren't just left in the dark or second guessing anything and she was very nice. We never felt like we were pressured into anything at all. We are thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend them 100%!

    This is the third or fourth time I'm using Armando and his crew to paint stuff at my house; this time what is the whole house on the exterior; Armando and his crew did an amazing job. I really love the quality of the work, the communication and everything about Armando and his crew. If you are in need of an honest, family business, reliable, and great quality painter, Armando and his crew are the best. Thank you guys!

    Front exterior, thoroughly prepped all the wood and eaves. We had a lot of wood repair that needed to be sanded and holes filled in.

    We had another company paint our house and they did such a terrible job! I called Armando from A Reliable Painter to give us a quote to fix what had been done poorly. He arrived on time and thoroughly walked around the entire exterior to give me an idea of what he would do to prep, fix and repaint our house. His team was on time everyday, very professional and did such a fantastic job with so much attention to detail in the prep work! I would highly recommend A Reliable Painter for your next painting job!

    I needed our house painted quickly so that we could move my dad in. I got in touch with Jennifer through Yelp who was super responsive and helpful. The next day Armando came out to give us a quote which was the fairest one that we received. The house we had bought wasn't well taken care of. Armando ran into a few problems with some of the walls and handled it. He painted every bedroom of our 4 bedroom home, the living room, fixed a hallway wall and painted that, kitchen cabinets, and baseboards and doors. He also helped us paint our front door. He and his team did this in 8 days! He was fast, efficient and the quality of his work is amazing. I would absolutely recommend that anyone use this company. They truly are very reliable!

    Armando and his crew just finished our house. From the beginning we were really impressed by Armando. He was recommended to us by a neighbor. He showed up exactly on time for the quote (on a holiday!), had us a very competitive price really quick and promptly got us scheduled. As the name says he's ultra reliable. Always on time and they really worked hard to get things done right. No corners were cut and the final project looks great. The entire job site was clean and tidy each night. They really went the the extra mile with prep work and it shows. Everything was masked off that needed to be, lots of stucco repairs etc. I have already recommended them to my neighbors and a friend. I highly recommend these folks!

    Trim, door, wall we're all painted

    I think there are very few contractors who, when that close to the finish line, would do what Armando did.

Aston carved out some time on his weekend to come check out the job and provide a quote. He was super upfront about what he could do and gave us recommendations even if we didn't move forward with him. He answered ALL of our questions and made us feel very at ease (especially after working with a contractor that was the complete opposite). Aston emailed me a very detailed and reasonable quote that evening and we hired him that next day. He is seriously one of the best contractors I've worked with (I work with contractors for a living so I've seen the full spectrum of good, bad, and ugly). He is super friendly and VERY communicative. I would rather have someone that over-communicates than under, because it removes assumptions from both sides. The work he does looks really great. He is extremely tidy and cleaned up the areas at the end of every day. He was able to match the old French lace texture we have over a fairly large area. His work has held up wonderfully, especially after the week and a half or rain we just had. Pictures posted are the before, in process, and unpainted finished work. HIGHLY recommend.

Eddie stepped in and handled everything - all the walls, baseboards, ceilings, doors, and window trim - and made the apartment look completely brand new.

What impressed us most was not just the quality of the paint job, but Eddie's work ethic and character. He and his team worked late into the night to meet our tight deadline and never once complained. Everything was done on a trust basis while our friends were busy at the hospital with their newborn. Eddie patiently waited for payment and never pressured them, and on top of that, he even gave a generous discount to help them out as new parents. If you're looking for someone who does excellent, detailed work and is also honest, kind, and incredibly reliable, Eddie is your guy. We highly, highly recommend Eddie & his team and will definitely be calling them again for future projects.

I contacted several places, and Dana was not only the most responsive, he was the fairest priced and the most comprehensive. He came on site to quote the project to make sure that he thoroughly understood and could give me an accurate price. I thought that I would have to find a separate vendor for the subsequent painting, but he did that too, and that made the whole process seamless. I had a window of about 10 days before I had houseguests arriving. I told Dana I could do the project before or after their visit. He had a crew on site the next day and it was all completed with 2 days to spare. Both the drywall and paint teams were excellent. They prepped well and cleaned up very well afterwards. They were very easy to communicate with. The informed me of what would happen each day and asked questions where any clarification was needed. It was a big effort for me, but the inconvenience was minimized because they took great care with their work and were respectful of my home. The quality of the work was excellent. There was one unanticipated issue discovered when I went to put everything back after the work was completed. I informed Dana of it and he had a guy come out to resolve it to my satisfaction. I couldn't be happier with the work that Above It All did. I have already recommended them to friends and would most definitely use them again.
