    Full bathroom

    Carrillo did a great job on our bathroom remodel. John and his staff were very professional, very considerate. They were also very flexible. Their pricing was very competitive and they also worked hard to get the job done. I would highly recommend.

    Finished room from tub angle

    Jonathan and team did a full bathroom reno for me and the outcome was great with only a few issues. Everyone was very friendly and hardworking, and they always checked in when a decision had to be made. They did demo of the entire tub shower and floor, installed a window in the shower wall, tiled, painted, epoxyed the tub, and installed a new vanity, fan, and toilet. The room was probably original to our 1970s house and was in very poor shape, and now it's one of my favorite rooms in the house. The issues that came up were a rather hasty paint job, but after I requested caulking, filling, and sanding some spots it was done to a good standard. The room has a wood beam that had paint splotches from previous jobs, and they removed most of those - I did have to finish a few myself. The tub epoxy had to be done twice and still has some places with drips, which was the most disappointing part, since I have seen DIY jobs that look similar. We had to repurchase a toilet when the new one we got didn't fit, after I had specifically asked if we needed a particular size. At the end of the job, a few things that I hadn't realized would cause upcharges were mentioned as being added cost to my initial estimate. Jonathan agreed to honor the original quote when I mentioned that I expected to be informed when a small change would add cost (moving a light fixture about a foot, painting the outside of the door). He offered a small compensation for the poor tub refinish. The tiling job is perfect and looks amazing, and overall the team understood my vision and helped make it a reality. The whole job took about a month and they prioritized installing the toilet so we could use the room (our only downstairs bathroom) ASAP. Jonathan listened to my concerns and addressed them and I'm so exited to use this bathroom for many years to come!

    Came to my home on 8/2 to review specs for the requested project. I haven't heard back and an estimate was never provided.

Communication with the owner was exceptional from start to finish. No long wait times, no back-and-forth delays--just clear, prompt, and professional responses that made coordination effortless. What impressed me most was their ability to perform under extremely challenging conditions. With 25-30 mph wind gusts and a three-story exterior to paint, I fully expected delays. Instead, they performed absolute magic. Their precision, attention to detail, and commitment to getting the job done safely and correctly were remarkable. This project was for one of our premier rentals in Alexandria, and the final result looks fantastic. I would absolutely use JZ Painting again for future projects and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others looking for a reliable, high-quality painting crew. A+ service, craftsmanship, and professionalism.

I contracted them to completely repaint the walls in a townhouse that was between tenants. Luis accepted the 4 day window of time and the estimate beat competitors by thousands of dollars. What I didn't expect was the exceptional preparation and repair prior to painting. They did so much more than simply filling nail holes. They spackled and sanded every imperfection in the walls. They laid plastic and drop cloths over every floor, including the stairs. After seeing the great look of the walls, I asked Luis to paint the trim as well. The estimate he provided for this late request was unbeatable. With a ten man motivated and very personable team, they were nearing completion by the middle of the second day when I decided they should also paint the ceilings. Again another unbeatable estimate. These guys are great and fast. They even repaired a damaged base board molding next to the refrigerator at no extra cost. The completed job was great. Luis and his team at Liberty Painting have my strongest recommendation. I will definitely use them again. Their cost and quality of work cannot be beat.

This company is by far one of the best paint contractors I've ever worked with. They're currently still working in my house for a big multi room project, but I was so pleased with the work they've already begun to do that I just had to post a review. Luis is very pleasant and professional. They offer competitive pricing. And most importantly, his team is superb. I've already highly recommended Liberty Painting to the owner of Benjamin Moore franchise in McLean, VA as well as friends, family and neighbors. In a world of greedy, lying, money hungry contractors who are more interested in over quoting and not being as professional as they promote themselves to be, Liberty Painting sells itself simply on fair pricing, honesty and excellence in workmanship. I recommend this company 1 million percent From a happy customer!

He was able to show me examples of his work and give me a quote on the spot. After he knew I was going with his firm, things turned a bit sour. I wanted to chat about a few things so he told me to call at 5 o'clock the next day. I called at 5 o'clock the next day and he seemed a bit irritated. So I asked him if it was a good time to talk. He said well if you want to talk with a toddler around. He was quite curt. He told ME to call him AT 5! The next day I reminded him he told me that I should call at that time and he was still complaining about talking with his child around. If you do not have a baby sitter do not ask clients to call you. I thought he would apologize for his rudeness, he didn't. Instead, I believed I was apologizing. Nuts. Then, I realized I had to remove two medicine cabinets that would leave holes in the walls that would need drywall patches. I told him about that and he said it would be $50 each extra just to do the drywall patches. Fine. Then a couple weeks later he said well are those the kind of cabinets that are hung on the wall or leave a hole when removed. I said there are holes. He proceeded to tell me then that that would probably be more than $50. So, if there are nail holes in the wall it's $50, but if there is a drywall hole it's more? I do not understand that. Mind you, I have emails where he actually wrote "confirmed" on items/clarifications to make sure they were included in the contract. I knew to do that because of the way his contract was written. Apparently, his contract only goes one way, his way. He states specifically that his contract is the entire contract: "Exclusions--Anything not mentioned in scope." I had in the contract to paint the outdoor shutters and white dry lock on the exposed cinderblock walls in the "downstairs laundry room." He's talking to me on the phone the day before, obviously not reading his own contract, and he says the shutters were not included, but he says that's okay. I reminded him they were in the contract. The next day when he goes to start work, he tells me the entire basement is not included. Mind you, he agreed to use dry lock in the "downstairs laundry room." There is no exposed cinderblock in the home except in the laundry room in the basement. He told me he didn't have the basement in any of his notes or video and he asked me if I remember going down there with him. I said I didn't remember. I reminded him of the cinderblock dry lock paint and he said well I assumed that was in the ground level - - so he didn't refer to his video that would clearly not show any exposed cinderblock above ground level ? Mind you, the contract states "Prep and paint all walls, ceilings, trim, and doors throughout the home." Well, he asked for an additional $2800 more. When I said no, it's just getting too expensive for me he dropped it to $2500 more (the contract was already ~$11,000). Mind you, he contracted with me to do the entire home. He reneged on his contract. What was I going to do? Take him to court? I need my home painted and I don't want someone to be forced to paint and do a bad job. Not saying that he would do a bad job, but I also needed it done as soon as possible. At a minimum, he should've owned up to the error. Instead, he tried to put the blame on me because I did not go in the basement with him. Seriously? If he had owned up to the mistake and given me a much better price, I probably would've gone with him. Mind you, his crew was already there and he had started putting paper down in a few rooms. He probably lost more money taking his crew away and losing a day of scheduled painting. I am just very disappointed. I think he probably would do a beautiful job, but I can't go with someone who changes the price while at the job. Is it my responsibility to walk into every room with him to make sure he has every room in his notes and video?

I asked what cabinet distributors they used and she couldn't give me a name, she said they use many. I then asked what the difference would be between getting a particular cabinet color (not knowing what my options were or what would be in stock without a company name), and she said custom vs semi custom are just words and that it's all pretty much custom so it wouldn't make a difference. Upon asking a few more questions, she proceeded to tell me "I'm not sure if you saw, but our company has almost a 5-star review and that's almost unheard of". I didn't know what to make of it, but considering what some of their reviews mentioned, I felt as though we were going to get the same treatment. She said she'd get back to me by Friday with a quote and a visual of the kitchen updates-- it was Tuesday that day. We gave her a call that Friday afternoon to follow up and she insisted that the cabinet company was taking a while and that she'd get back to us by Monday the latest if not over the weekend. We waited and got nothing so my husband called her the following Wednesday without ever hearing from her. She continued to reassure us that she hasn't forgotten about us and that she'd get back to us by Monday for sure. It's now been 21 days and we got no updates or any communication from them. It's clear that this is a pattern for them and I'd advise someone looking to get work done by someone reliable and honest to look elsewhere.
