Chris always needs to be paid in advance because he never has money to purchase materials. Then he…read moredoesn't check on the work that's been done! We had a horrible experience. The workers actually slept on the floors in the new construction house. I paid him $18,000.00 for a job that was so bad!!! We contacted him several times and asked him to come back and make repairs. He kept making promises but then just ghosted us. Will never use him or recommend him again!

Warning, do not hire Chris Linnenkamp. We were warned and we hired him anyway because we were…read morefriends and thought he wouldn't treat us like this. He doesn't show up to work for weeks or months at a time. We picked black windows for our house and he put in white windows. We picked a specific floor and he put in some random flooring he got leftover from other builds. We paid extra cash for a specific front door and he put in a random leftover door from another build. He talks a good game, honestly, he sounds believable. Do not believe what he says. He told us he would have this house completed in 6 months or less. It's been 19 months and we can hardly get him to show up to finish the rest of the house. We beg him to show up to finish just one thing a week so the house will eventually get finished. We could go on and on. Do not hire this person. Chris also owns Premium Home Builders Inc. His wife, Kim, sent us our contract but he says she does not work for him so her real estate business is not involved in the horrendous service he provides.

We've used Garcia Painting for multiple projects over the years, and each experience has been…read moreexceptional. Fall 2019: They stained our deck and did a fantastic job. Jesus, the owner, is personable, professional, and honest. The entire process was smooth, and the quality of their work was excellent. July 2020: They painted our front door. The door had been painted previously, and rather than simply painting over it, they went above and beyond by completely sanding it down first to ensure the best possible finish. It's attention to detail like this that truly sets them apart and demonstrates their commitment to quality craftsmanship. May 2021: They painted the entire upstairs of our home after water damage. There were cracks in the walls and ceilings that required significant time and effort to repair. The level of precision was incredible. You would never know there had been any damage. The lines were perfectly clean and straight throughout the house, even in the most difficult corners. Every member of the crew was kind, professional, and clearly took pride in their work. June 2026: Once again, Garcia Painting came to our rescue after another round of water damage (thankfully, the root cause has finally been fixed!). Jesus was incredibly patient with me while I sampled far too many paint colors before making a decision. Once the colors were selected, he and his phenomenal crew got to work. What continues to amaze me is the amount of care they put into preparation. The time they spend covering, protecting, patching, sanding, and prepping every surface is unmatched. They were here for three and a half days completing this large interior project, and the results are flawless. When they finished, you couldn't even tell they had been there. Their cleanup is so thorough it rivals a professional cleaning service. After four projects spanning nearly seven years, I can confidently say Garcia Painting is one of the best companies we've ever hired. Their work is consistently outstanding, their attention to detail is second to none, and they treat your home with care and respect. If you're looking for a painting company that delivers exceptional results, stands behind its work, and operates with honesty and integrity, call Garcia Painting today. You will absolutely love the results. We will continue to hire them for any future painting projects without hesitation.
