Edgar and team did a good job painting 2 accent walls. No problem with the work and will definitely work with them again. I am not giving them 5 stars because they said they will come around 7:30AM but, ended up showing up around 10AM.

This is the 2nd time I hired Edgar and his team - 1st for kitchen cabinet painting from 2 years ago and the recent one for interior painting to prep our home for selling. When we asked him for the job it was a bit of a late notice but it was kind of Edgar to give us an estimate right away. As what their company is named after, they indeed did a marvelous job with the work we asked them to do. First thing we observed is that they are consistently on time. They would always arrive right before the appointment. Another is that they leave the work area clean as you can see from the photos. As for the quality of work - being the meticulous person I am, I was very impressed with the results. Clean lines (of course there would be tight spaces impossible to reach) but overall my husband and I are very satisfied at how clean the edges are and even the holes on the wall have been patched up good as if they were never there. They also fixed some minor cracks on the ceiling. At the end of the whole paintwork, Edgar would always come to check and inspect the work done and he himself points out to his team if he sees anything that needs correction/cleaning up and also asked me if I see anything that needs fixing/retouching, and they would address that I highly recommend them for anyone needing paintwork for their homes. These guys are reliable and professional. Thank you again Edgar.

Edgar's team did a wonderful job painting our kitchen with minimal dust/mess. It took about 4 days but each day they were willing to remove the tarp so that we could access our refrigerator and microwave. About a week or two after they finished I noticed a couple chips on our drawers so I asked for some touch up paint. Due to The SIP order, it took awhile to get the paint, but Edgar didn't forget. Thank you Edgar and we'd gladly use you again.

Seven Trees

I am very glad I went with Target Painting. I had to remove ivy from our house and Ibsan and his…read moreteam did a great job removing the remaining ivy remnants by powerwashing and sanding the stucco surface. They were able to match the paint and make our outside wall look like new. I felt that they went above and beyond by getting to hard to reach areas and we are very satisfied with their work. We especially appreciated that Hugo came back the next day to touch up a few things that we had noticed. Both him and Jose were great!They also charge a fair price for their service. They also did some interior painting work and they did a great job there as well. They are very professional and talented in their craft. Would use them again for any painting needs we have!

Unprofessional, careless, and combative…read more I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for your painting needs. Working with this company was a stressful experience from start to finish. Poor Communication & Absent Management: Communication across the board--with both the owner, Ibsan, and his crew--was frustrating. I was asked for my color choices probably 10 times and Ibsan and his crew kept threatening extra charges for finishes that were explicitly included in their original quote. Messy Worksite & Property Damage: Throughout the entire project, the crew constantly left our property in disarray, scattering tools, paint cans, and trash across our front, back, and side yards. They also damaged our attic vents and refused to take responsibility, claiming the damage was pre-existing. The crew also never fully cleaned up--I still have tons of paint chips and paint drops everywhere. Complete Disregard for Property Protection: I specifically emphasized how important it was to properly block off the soffit vents over my garage, as I store a lot of items in it alongside a brand new vehicle. All they did was cover them with a thin layer of masking tape, which blew right off during pressure washing. Instead of stopping to fix it, Hugo, the foreman, kept right on power washing directly into the open vents and shrugged it off when I brought it to his attention. My car and everything stored in the garage were covered with dirty sludge which will take me me days to clean. Sloppy Workmanship & Cut Corners: While they did an excellent job on stucco patching and prep, basic surface prep like scraping and sanding elsewhere was really inconsistent, leaving an uneven finish in several areas. Even on day 1, the crew wasn't even planning to use a commercial mold remover despite visible mold present. Hugo argued with me, as he did throughout the entire project; while Ibsan agreed to handle it, he simply returned with a small spray bottle of consumer-grade cleaner you can get at Safeway and they only bothered to treat my rain gutters. Gaslighting & Constant Pushback: Whenever I pointed out a clear mistake either in prep or painting, the crew always said, "it was like that, you just didn't notice it before" so I had to show them "before" photos proving otherwise and then they begrudgingly corrected the mistake. Getting basic issues addressed required pressing them repeatedly. Hugo tried to convince me that I should "just trust the professional painter" and spent three days arguing to leave an unmasked, un-prepped window frame they accidentally painted--an issue that ultimately took just 5 minutes to clean. Hugo said, "well it's worth trying." Ignoring Instructions & Insubordination: The most absurd moment of the entire job happened on our porch. While applying a specialized product Ibsan admitted they had never used before, Hugo and I discussed the plan earlier in the day, which called for a 4-hour dry time between coats per the label instructions. Yet just an hour after he applied it, he started applying a second coat anyway. When I caught this and directly asked him to stop, he completely ignored my instructions, feeding me some nonsense line about "letting the product talk to him"--clearly rushing to finish the job so they wouldn't have to return the next day as discussed. He refused to stop working on my own property and literally kept painting right in front of me until I had to call Ibsan to intervene. It was completely mind-boggling and if Ibsan hadn't answered, my next call was to the police. To cap it all off, after that major altercation with Hugo, Ibsan promised to call the next day to address what had happened, but clearly didn't care enough to do so. To be fair, the end result looks good as long as you don't get too close, but there were much cheaper bids that would have accomplished the same thing with a lot less stress. If you're not willing to constantly fight and push for what you want, avoid them entirely. Save yourself the headache and hire a team that respects you, your home, your contract, and basic professional standards.

My house was in bad need of fresh paint so I went looking for painters and found NStyle on Yelp…read morealong with a couple others. We got quotes from three firms total and Nstyle's was the lowest but they had the best reviews on Yelp so we decided to go with them, and those reviews proved true. We started with a small job to paint a bedroom and closet inside the house, which would have a white ceiling and dark walls. Fernando did it beautifully with "crispy" sharp lines where the two colors met and a smooth, flawless finish all around. When it came time to paint the exterior, Fernando as well as the rest of the NStyle crew did an awesome job with excellent attention to detail. They even worked weekends to be sure our job was finished before a new gutter install happened. Throughout the multi-step project, Nick, the owner, was easy to communicate with and took any feedback or requests we had in stride. At one point, the trim color was partway done but we realized it wasn't the right color ... even though Nick's team had already painted a swatch for us to approve; it just looked different in the afternoon sun. So I texted Nick about it, on Labor Day weekend, and he arranged to get a swatch of the new color painted as soon as Sherwin Williams opened and we were back on track (with no extra charges). The paint job looks gorgeous and I'm in love with my house again, thanks to NStyle. I'll have them back anytime I need some painting done; they're that good.

We are so happy we went with N Style Painting. We had them come after we replaced our front door…read moreand windows. Nick walked us through the paint process, helped us pick colors, and did test samples on our house. The paint crew were meticulous and we love the finished product.

Since they had to match paint I had already used, I was especially impressed with how well they matched it. They worked quickly but did a really careful job. Our house has a lot of windows, and they did an excellent job with clean, sharp lines around all of them. We also have very thick stucco texture, and I was worried the paint wouldn't cover evenly, but they did a great job--the coverage looks very even and professional. They also made sure I was completely happy with the finished job. I would definitely recommend Guacamaya Painting Inc!

These guys are truly great painters. They did a fantastic job painting my pergola this week…read more Reasonable price for sure. I highly recommend. They were recommended by our very good friends that just had them paint their whole house and they were very happy. I called them Monday morning and Pete came out the same day and gave me a quote on the spot, and I said "yes let's do it, when can you start?" He says how about this Wednesday. Woah that was easy! I had already received 2 other estimates from other painters on Yelp, so I was ready to get started. So the guys show up at 8am on Wednesday and start priming the wood. They worked from 8am til 5pm on Wednesday and Thursday, then finished the job at noon on Friday. Nice! The color was perfect and they give a one year guarantee so if it needs some touch up, Pete says they will come back and do the touch up. Good price and excellent workmanship. Like I said, I highly recommend.
