We are extremely happy with the work that James A. Pugliese Painting. They pride themselves on excellence and it's definitely reflected in their work! While prepping the house for painting, they uncovered extensive wood rot in the front of the house. We had no idea how bad it was. He and his crew were able to rip off the old and replace in a few days While this additional cost set us back, we are so grateful to James, Lisa and his crew for doing a fantastic job. The care and professionalism throughout the job was well worth it! Highly recommend! read more

We've had two homes painted by James Pugilese Painting. A rental in Pacifica and our residence in Redwood City. James said they even go as far as San Jose. They do a fantastic job at a good price. We were really impressed by their attention to detail when prepping the house. I like that they checked in with us when they came across things that needed repair, like dry rot or broken stucco, and had the expertise to do the repairs. At a reasonable hourly rate too. Communication was easy. They work clean, fast and are very thorough. It was a pleasure working with James, Lisa and their crew. read more

It pains me to write this review. While James and his crew did have some good qualities, overall there were some giant flaws. Lisa was incredibly responsive at first when they painted our home last year. In fact, the crew were fast and friendly and the house looked great initially. However, a few weeks later, paint in 3 rooms started cracking and bubbling off. I've been trying to get them to come back for ONE YEAR to fix these areas to NO AVAIL. As a small business who takes pride in their work and reputation, I would hope they would want to rectify this. I have called, emailed and texted dozens of times and am so discouraged that they can be so dismissive with paying customers. read more

Highly recommended! James, Lisa and the entire crew did an outstanding job! The workmanship, attention to detail and quality of the work were all excellent. They were punctual, respectful, kept the area totally clean and were a true pleasure to work with. Must say our house looks gorgeous and we are absolutely thrilled with the results! James was also on site every day for the entire day and he and his crew did, careful, thorough and precise work. Lisa was incredibly helpful with color consultation and the business details as well. We will definitely be using them in the future and highly recommend them! Thank you James, Lisa and the entire crew! read more

They had done a great job for us years ago and when we had Lisa come out to redo the job for freshening up the house, we got the price. We were a bit stunned at how much more they wanted for less work - this time we didn't want interior work, but we tighten our belts and came up with the money. When ready we called & emailed at least 10 times and Lisa answered us once. When we tried to get an actual date to start.... They never returned any calls or emails. What "ducks" and I meant with an I not a u! So go elsewhere where they won't take ur time and bull$#!£ you around, read more

My house is beautiful thanks to James Pugliese and his crew! They are professional, proficient and personable. I wish I had "before" pictures to post but I'm so pleased to present an "after" picture. I highly recommend them to all you in the Pacifica area and beyond! read more

James A Pugliese Painting - Painters Near Me - Pacifica, California

I was referred to James and Lisa through my real estate agent. From the start, Lisa was so pleasant to work with, communicative and transparent. She gave me multiple quotes so I could made a informed decision on how much I wanted to spend. They power washed our decks making them look amazing, which meant we could save money on having them refinished. They did a phenomenal job painting the interior and exterior of the house, as well as our kitchen cabinets. The garage is unrecognizable compared to how it started. They also allow you to pay online which is so convenient. Lisa and James were absolute professionals. They were my favorite contractors to work with when we were remodeling our property. read more

James and Lisa and their crew were fantastic. Lisa was very easy to communicate with, she would check in each day with arrival times for the crew the next day and answered any of my questions in a timely manner. I was very impressed that James, as the owner, was on site each day supervising and working at the job. The crew always arrived on time as expected and respected not only our property but that of our neighbors as well by covering cars and keeping the work area clean. We are very pleased with the results. Our home looks great. We will be calling them in the future for another property in the family and I have already recommended them to several coworkers. Great Job! read more

James and Lisa were a pleasure to work with. They are a local family owned business and I highly recommend them. James and his crew work very efficiently with amazing attention to detail. Lisa was very informative when she came by to give an estimate for the job and kept in constant contact throughout the job. After several estimates with other contractors, I felt very comfortable selecting Pugliese Painting. Their warranty, expertise and competitive pricing was very appealing. James and Lisa are also good natured people. They are very busy, but if you can manage to meet with them you won't be disappointed. read more

James, Lisa, and their crew painted my house in Pacifica. Lisa was truly a pleasure to communicate with - super responsive, reliable, and easy to talk to. James is truly passionate about the craft and he and his team did a fantastic job on my house. They also replaced a ton of dry rotted siding and we're super fast taking care of my job. I loved supporting a local business and they made it easy to do! read more

Fantastic job in record time once the initial speed bump of communication was sorted out.

You can tell they loved their job. They were alway happy Liza the estimator was very thorough and detailed with her estimate . It was very reasonable. The interior of the had wood paneling. Now it looks so spacious and bright! The exterior pretty much has had the same color scheme for the past 57yr if beige and tan. Now the gray, blue, and white make it a new house read more

X James and Lisa Pugliese run a professional painting team! We had them paint our same house approximately 15 years ago. It is wood, needed a lot of prep work and they did not miss an inch! Stripped and recaulked where necessary, then primed and painted our home. It was so nice that their crew always cleaned up / every day. Never any messes! They did a fabulous job in using our tri-color paint scheme. We will definitely use them again! read more

I recently had my 2 story home painted as well as many siding boards replaced. Lisa, James, and the crew did an amazing job on my home. These individuals possessed the utmost professionalism and prompt communications with any contractor I have dealt with. Lisa was superb with assisting with color choices and details to my home. Additionally, she made the process smooth and painless. James was here on site himself and ensured all my needs were met in a very professional manner. The crew, where do I start.. Very skilled at what they do and it shows in their craftsmanship and attention to detail. I created this Yelp account specifically to give this company a well deserved shout out. If you are in the market spruce up the curb appeal of your home please look no further. Local company, fantastic work, and an exceptional craftsmanship. Thank you James A Pugliese Painting for restoring my old home to the masterpiece it is today!! 10/10 would recommend. read more

I wanted to support a local business and was more than pleased with the quality work of James A Pugliese Company. His crew did an excellent job on the prep work as well as painting. Price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this painting company and will use them again. Thank you, James. read more

My initial call was answered immediately by a very nice woman named Lisa. She promptly handled all the necessary details to get the job started. A couple weeks later, James and his crew arrived. They had with them the exact paint colors that Lisa was able to obtain from a photo that I sent her. The preparation work took most of their time. They not only showed respect for our property but also our neighbors, and they cleaned up after themselves daily. James kept us in the loop and was a perfectionist. No detail was overlooked. We have had nothing but compliment on the house, and we can only take credit for having the good sense to hire James and his entire staff. read more

I'm writing this review solely because the company failed to return three phone calls requesting a bid to paint the exterior of our house. Each time I requested a return phone call even if they are unwillingly or unable to provide an estimate. My assumption is that, if they are out of town or have some sort of family emergency, there would at least be a message of this on their recorded phone answer. There was nothing of the sort. This indifference seems inconsistent with the generally positive reviews of the work they provide. read more

The painting crew was very efficient and professional. Lisa helped us with the color choices. We are very happy with the finished look! read more

James A Pugliese Painting - James And Lisa did a great job! - Painters Near Me - Pacifica, California

We worked with James, Lisa, and their crew for an exterior paint job for our home to live in, not for resale. Working with them was a wonderful experience for the following reasons: there were hiccups in the beginning (as it does with almost any job frankly) but everything got resolved ASAP, communication on expectations and timeline was clear, they noticed additional issues - some not even for their main work - just to give us a heads up. Now for the really special part: James and Lisa felt like neighbors coming to help us, I looked forward to talking with them, hearing about Pacifica history, how their day went, and their opinions on color matching. It really felt like they cared about whether the house looked good and we were happy with it. I really appreciated the personal collaboration and connection, and much preferred this over a detached, transactional exchange. It was unexpected but very nice to know there are still businesses like this, people like them, and I hope they are still around when we need to repaint again! read more

I wrote an earlier review on the very professional quotation that Lisa from the company gave me. Now let me tell you about the wonderful work that they did on our house. Every now and then I find a company that is so good that I wish that Yelp would allow me to give them 10 stars. This is one such instance. James Pugliese is among a dying group of people in the world-a true craftsman. He is also a lot of fun to work with. We hired him to do three things as follows: 1) Paint a good part of the interior of the house. 2) Paint the exterior of the house including the garage and railings. 3) Rebuild and paint a fence at the back of the property that was about to fall down due to rot and old age. They constantly exceeded our expectations. Their work was most professional. They always knew what they were doing. They knew how to work fast. They were constantly interacting with my wife and I to make sure that they were following our wishes. They really shined when it came to the back fence problem. Part of their team are two men who are superb carpenters. The fence was tilting over. Our first idea was to put it back upright. When this was attempted, the fence fell down. We knew we had a huge problem on our hands due to the high price of lumber right now. James's team was able to save all the wood from the fence except the fence posts. They rebuilt the fence and did a superb job of painting it and the deck, Their great worked saved us up to $5,000 in lumber costs. They earned every penny that they were paid!!!!! read more

I hate to update this review with some negativity but feel I should. Pugliese is still a very good painter but on my second house, it took them from November 6th to January 2nd to complete it. True we are not yet residing in the house as it was being renovated and there was much rain... but there was plenty of sunny days too. My initial easy-going acceptance about them taking longer as they had some rush jobs to do wore out. Communication was difficult and often took days for a text or call back. When they first "completed the house" I found numerous areas that were unfinished. I was assured they would be taken care of (and eventually they were). But... it took several return visits which simply made it a time consuming effort on my part to make myself available and reiterate the problems not addressed. And again, the difficulty with getting in touch and return phone calls. They are nice people and good painters - but they kind of dropped the ball on our second home. Although they came through in the end, I feel it important to convey these problems and to knock off a start from the stellar rating I had given them. Its a shame as I intended to hire them to do the interior of the new home but changed my mind after these experiences. Now I can only hope for follow-up should their paint degrade within the warranty since they painted in such damp conditions. As I've done before, I will not hesitate to pursue legally should they fail in this regard. read more

Fantastic to work with. James and Lisa are awesome. Their crew was vey professional and detailed in painting the exterior of our house. We were amazed at the amount of prep work they did to ensure the paint never ended up where it wasn't supposed to. We have an artificial turf lawn and the ENTIRE lawn was covered in plastic during the painting process to prevent any overspray. Will definitely be using Pugliese for my future painting projects. read more

If you are looking for a residential painting company that offers high-quality work, we highly recommend James A Pugliese Painting. We were able to observe their work before hiring them because they painted our neighbor's house and they did an excellent job. When deciding on a painter, don't just base your decision on who charges less because you will get what you pay for. Getting your house painted is definitely an investment, so it's important to hire someone who will do an excellent job. You may get a painter who charges less, but the work they do may not last as long, and they may also not provide a warranty after their work is completed. Pugliese Painting not only did a great painting job, but most importantly, they took their time in prepping the outdoor siding to ensure the paint would last longer (this is a step that some painters may not dedicate as much time to). I especially appreciated Lisa's help in figuring out the house colors; she's the color queen. Even though I had a good idea of what colors I wanted, I still needed an expert's advice, and with Lisa's help and patience, we were able to select the correct shades. As a result, I am so happy with my beachy vibe house. I also have to say that the workers are some of the best workers I have encountered; they are super polite, professional, hard-working, and they all have a friendly demeanor. read more

James and his wife Lisa were super easy to work with! Quick quote within a couple of days, and they were able to start work within the week! We had James and team repaint all the trim on our house, and they also painted a bedroom addition that had been built to match the house. It took them a day and a half, and they were super receptive to small changes we requested along the way. Our house looks refreshed after this paint job! They were very reasonably priced as well. Thanks, James and Lisa! read more

James and team did great work on our house. They were professional, thorough, and quick! I appreciated that the estimate was pretty accurate with some minor changes due to some extra things we wanted done once the job has started. I also appreciated the fact that they focused on our house from morning until the job was done for that day instead of working several jobs at a time. Would highly recommend Pugliese Painting for your painting needs on or in your home! read more

James Pugliese Painting saved the day for us! The day we called we got a call back and they came out to give a price quote estimate. They started work within the next few days. We had the interior of our house painted. Lisa also was prompt to return emails or phone calls and helped me with my paint color questions (samples, etc). When we had the floors re-finished a few days later, we noticed the baseboards had some wood stain on them from the floor guys. James and his team were able to come back and paint those again. We are forever grateful for the attention to detail and their high quality work and professionalism. I highly recommend this company to anyone seeking a wonderful experience. Call them now! read more

James and his crews are the best. I saw them working in my neighborhood a few months ago and called them to do the estimate. Lisa responded quickly and gave me a very reasonable estimate. James and his crews came on time every morning this week. They pressure washed the house the first day. Covered the windows and walkways around the house. Spent two days from 7:30 am to 6 pm., doing the thorough Pre work, replacing the damage woods on the window frames and wood panels area, sanding and repairing the cracks on the stucco walls. They also prep and repair the holes on chimney metal covers and painted non-rust paint to protect the metal sheets. Their paint work was thorough and professional. The crew members are courteous and very professional. They kept the yard clean after everyday's work. Highly recommend James and his team. We will definitely use them again. read more
