After being a general contractor building custom homes and high end remodels for over 40 years, I am usually underwhelmed with most contractors in the valley. Charles and Alex home improvements did an amazing exterior paint job on our newly purchased home. I was very impressed with the attention to detail and extra time spent on prep work which makes all the difference on a quality job (Javier and Joel our crew). John was really responsive when called gave an excellent bid with quality materials. I never had to point anything out to the crew which is rare given my background. They were very professional and on time (2 1/2 days on 3100 sq' home). Big thanks to Charles and Alex home improvements we will definitely be using them again on other upcoming projects.

I called Charlie on two referrals in my subdivision, he left a job a few miles away to come to my house and quote me a price. I was pleasantly surprised at the price, was expecting more for a 3800 sq ft two story house. He is a straight shooter and told me they're not the cheapest and they're not the most expensive, somewhere in between, his price reflected that. Charlie explained to me what they do, pressure wash, scrape, patch, prime and spray. His price included the paint too, I've had painters at my other homes require me to purchase the paint. He used the paint that is also recommended for AZ summers. I booked him, told him I would call him as soon as my new garage doors were installed so they wouldn't have to return to paint those at a later date. Garage doors were delayed a few weeks so I called him and met with his sons, Jim and John, they went over the contract with me and what to expect. Both of the boys were very pleasant to work with. They didn't even take a down payment, we scheduled the work to begin the first Monday after I signed the contract. John said their painters would be there at 8 am. I was expecting a crew of 4 or 5 like my last 1700 sq ft house I had painted.. they had 2 guys show up at 7:45 ....sharp!! They immediately went to work, no BSing! The 2 showed up every day at 7:45, worked hard every day until 5 pm. They did a phenomenal clean up every day before quitting time. They finished Thursday afternoon about 12. They did an awesome job, clean up was phenomenal each day and respected plants and foliage in the yard!! John came by to check on the job at the end to make sure my wife and I were happy!! I told him we were very pleased!!! He said call when your garage doors are installed and we'll schedule them to return and finish the job!! Two week later doors were installed, called John and he sent his 2 painters out on Saturday morning, again, 7:45 they arrived,went right to work and finished about 10 am!! This whole experience was awesome from the start, not one snag or set back or argument that I usually encounter when I hire people. They showed, they worked, they finished and were very reasonable!!! I highly recommend Charles and Alex painting, I will be using them again for any of my painting needs. His boys, Jim and John, were both a pleasure to work with! I already had 3 neighbors that wanted their number because of the job they did, they're going to call them when they paint their homes in the near future!! Highly recommend these guys!!

See all

A face to face experience with both brothers followed up with excellent efficient service. They gave a reasonable quote for service, and upon a signed contract, they scheduled & completed the project ahead of schedule. I couldn't be happier with the quality, the service, the price & expert finished product. read more

Jimmy came to my home to give me a quote and I was very impressed! He was professional and friendly and explained thoroughly the process to paint the exterior of the house. The painters came this morning and finished at 4pm. They did a fantastic job! John came to make sure of my satisfaction. I wish there were more companies/people like C&A Painting. It was a pleasure to deal with them! Highly recommend! I do not live in California. I live in Coolidge. read more

DISHONEST and UNPROFESSIONAL. Jim canceled on us the night before our scheduled painting start date, leaving us stranded with no options. He came to look at the house and gave us a quote for painting our house 2 weeks prior to start date. We made arrangements including closing and moving days around Jim's word on when he will finish painting. He gave us a contract and we paid him. The day before he started painting, he brought "his crew" who seemed like a subcontractor (so they are not even doing their own work!). After discussion with the subcontractor, Jim refused to work and demanded significantly more money than originally agreed on. We agreed to give him more money because he cornered us in a difficult situation. He then demanded more money and proceeded and when we questioned him, he cancelled on us in an extremely rude manner over the phone. Jim is also deceitful. He lied about the paint he would use for us. During his visit and in his contract, he said he would use a higher-grade paint. The samples he brought for us were far cheaper than what we had agreed upon. I spoke with his partner at company who refused to help us as well. It was clear that clients mean nothing to Jim or his company. I strongly advise against working with Jim or Charles & Alex Painting. Their unprofessionalism, dishonesty, and lack of accountability left us deeply frustrated. Find a contractor who values their clients and respects their commitments to avoid similar disappointment and inconvenience. read more

This company is very good. I worked with John who was friendly and had good communication. They washed and painted my house in a timely manner for a fair price. The quality was excellent. They were a referral from one of my neighbors in the Desert Ridge area. I recommend this company! read more

Worked with Jim and he was actually a few minutes early for our on-site meeting! Another company that wanted to bid the job an hour before my meeting with Jim didn't even show up. Jim reviewed the work we wanted completed, offered a few suggestions that actually ended up saving us money and schedules the work on a hand-shake. As the work was being done Jim called a couple of times with status reports and kept us completely informed. They completed the job ahead of schedule and again, were on time for our review of the work and payment. The work was better than I expected and Jim's counsel and advice right on target. We couldn't be happier. I appreciate their "old-school" approach to doing what they say they'll do and delivering. I won't use ANYONE else for any painting or light carpentry repairs again - Charles and Alex painting are my first choice from here on - SUPER! read more

John McMillan and his crew are amazing to work with and did fantastic work. Their pricing is very reasonable. They are detailed. John was so easy to work with and trusting. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to have anything done. read more

My husband and I bought our home in Gold Canyon (Entrada Del Oro) in 2008. It finally needed to be painted and have some small repairs done to the exterior as well. We don't live here full time, so we had to find a painter on our own. My husband found Charles and Alex Painting and we hired them, hoping for the best. They did a beautiful job! The house looks brand new again, and their work was meticulous and thorough. Thry were very professional and responsive and we would hire them again in a minute. We highly recommend them! read more

They painted my house and garage at a very respectable cost. Very happy with their work! I just bought a house that had a bad exterior paint job. Paint peeling with exposed wood and cracked in places. They did great prep work, used good quality primer/paint and did a great job. Jim was very nice to talk with and listened to all my concerns. read more

Our house had never been painted since built so was in serious need of a paint job. We talked with Jimmy from Charles & Alex Painting and got an immediate quote on the spot. After interviewing two other painters we selected Charles & Alex Painting. They had recently painted 5 other houses on our street, so that was good enough for us. The showed up at 3:00 pm the day before scheduled to start prepping the house. They power washed the exterior, replaced missing stucco and repaired all the joints. The painting was completed at 3:00 pm the second day. Jimmy and his brother John were both very polite and professional as was the crew that did the actual work. They were clean and efficient and removed all trash when they left. They also left some left over paint for any future touch ups if needed. We definitely recommend Charles & Alex Painting. read more

More than we ever expected!!! After the monsoon on Aug 2nd,2018 we had a lot of damage to our exterior paint. We got three estimates and when we called, Charles answered the phone and said his son, John would call me back within 15 minutes, well it was only 5 minutes and he was at our door within 15 minutes. We knew right away this was the painter we would like in charge of our home, as long as the price was right. That night we received the bid and it beat out the other two and doing much more work. When we called to tell them we wanted to give them the job they scheduled us, and in a short while our house looked better than we ever thought it would look like after the damage we had. John and his painters were so professional , polite and here early every day until done. Thank you,John, Santiago , and Giovanni. When we are ready for some inside work, we will be calling them back for sure! read more

We had to have our house re-painted per HOA guidelines, and Charles did an AMAZING JOB! They went above and beyond my exceptions, and I would use them again without hesitation. Fantastic work and attention to detail. Thank you! read more

After receiving three estimates to paint our home we decided to give our business to Charles and Alex Painting and here are a few reasons why... 1) When I called to ask for information I was able to speak directly to the owner of the company. Jimmy was not only helpful, he was patient, courteous, and extremely knowledgable in an area I am not. 2) For more peace of mind, I checked on line for reviews, their business license, and with Better Business Bureau. Charles and Alex Painting were up to date with no complaints. Amazing considering they have been a family owned business for decades! 3) Jimmy arrived at my home and walked around my house explaining what we would need and why, as well as how they would do it. I was then offered three different price points connected to the quality of paint to be used from from Dunn Edwards. My research revealed Dunn Edwards to be a professional quality product. We chose the Evershield line which is the highest level of quality for residential dwellings so we would not have to paint again for at least 12-15 years. 4) The team arrived to go to work on time and did a fantastic job. The house looks amazing and was very well done. In fact several neighbors stopped by to ask for the name and number of the company we used so they too could have their home updated and refreshed. 5) After our home was cared for so well by the team, Jimmy and his brother John stopped by to make certain we were completely satisfied "to our standards." We are totally satisfied. My wife and I think of ourselves as discerning and frugal customers and we are very grateful to find a company that is trustworthy and committed to customer satisfaction and a quality product. We had been given some lower estimates but for the above reasons, and many more, we went with the best so we could enjoy a quality and value added experience. To top it off, we made two new friends, Jimmy and John are great guys. Thank you both and your team... Well done! read more

Very pleased with the experience from end to end. Friendly and very knowledgeable about color pallets used in our HOA. Responsive to questions and last minute changes. Work was promised and completed on time at the very fair price agreed upon. They did both a great job in painting as well as clean up. Would definitely recommend them to paint your home. read more

Charles and Alex Painting was very professional and did great work. My husband and I are very pleased. The workers work hard and are very accommodating and will do anything to make sure you are happy. I highly recommend. read more

I had Charles and Alex do a complete exterior repaint of my rental home in San Tan Ranch in Gilbert. This included a change of colors to comply with the HOA approved colors. I sent the approved color palates to Charles and Alex and the job was done precisely as requested. I had some concern going with them as the lowest bid, but the job turned out great. Would definitely use them again. read more

Our neighbors had the outside of their house painted by Charles and Alex Painting and we noticed that their house looked great. We contacted them and Charles came to the house to explain what all would need to be done and provide the estimate. He was very responsive to our calls and the day after we received approval from our HOA, they began the work on the house. It turned out to be windy the first two days and rather than continue to work and risk the paint spraying all over, they rescheduled to come back to finish the work on another day. We had to be out of town for a couple of days so the work was finished while we were gone and when we returned, we were so happy with how it looks! They did a FANTASTIC job and it looks AWESOME!!! They clearly did not cut any corners and we are extremely happy with all of what they did - the house and our concrete wall look WONDERFUL!!!! I highly recommend Charles and Alex Painting! Personable, professional, and VERY skilled at what they do!!! read more
