Jared does phenomenal work to say the least. The exterior of my house was in pretty bad shape (built in the 40's). There where a ton of cracks and wood rot throughout. Jared single handedly fied all that (in 103 degree heat) and painted the house to make it look brand new. He maintained great communication throughout the entire project and kept me updated on things as they progressed. His attention to detail is incredible. He is a friendly guy and is great to work with. On top of that, his price is pretty good. I had quotes from 3 different paint companies and his price came out in the middle. If you're looking for a painter and/or someone to fix the major or minor imperfections on the exterior of your house, look no further. I HIGHLY recommend Jared! read more

Jared did a wonderful job and helped us out when we were really in a bind! Super thorough and pays a lot of attention to detail! He sanded our ceiling and painted it! He even worked on the weekend and is super reasonably priced! We would definitely hire him again and recommend him! read more

So I'm writing yet another review for Mechels painting after another great experience. Jared has painted the full interior of two of our houses and has now painted the exterior of our new home. What sets Jared apart from other paint companies is the significant attention to detail that is placed on every job he does. My neighbor and I both had our houses painted within weeks of each other. They had their house done first and commented on the amount of time Jared spent caulking and prepping the exterior. It took Jared longer to prep than it took the crew who did the neighbors house to complete the job. The results speak for themselves. Our house looks incredible and the neighbors have come over on several occasions to tell me how much they wish their painter had done a comparable job given the fact we paid about the same amount. read more

Jerald did a superb job painting the exterior of our home. He is meticulous, professional and works every detail. Very easy to work with, goes above and beyond from beginning to end. Without hesitation, I would recommend him to others. read more

We had recently replaced our stairwell and needed the trim and baseboards painted and knew it would be a tricky DIY. They turned out so good and make the rest of our baseboards in our house look like they could use a touch up. He also painted our daughters room and when we wanted to modify the look after he was finished with the job, he came back right away to get it just right and we very much appreciated that he stood behind his good work. Very kind and hard working individual and look forward to using him for future paint jobs around our home. read more

Updated 12/20/22 - I'm disappointed I have to post a one star update for Mechals Painting. Not because of poor quality workmanship but poor follow through. I contacted Jarrad about four months ago to request a quote for painting because I was so impressed with his workmanship on a previous paint project he did for me. It took awhile and several attempts before he responded indicating he'd call to discuss the need. Never did. Then some weeks later he texted apologizing he was on a job in an area with poor reception. I can understand that. Again, he promised he'd call at a certain time. Never did nor did I ever get a call at some point. Very disappointing because he did such a great job and follow through before. read more

Easy to work with, went above and beyond (didn't nickel and dime). So much so that I looked up the prices of the additional work and added it to my bill read more

Jared painted the exterior of our home and did a phenomenal job. Went above and beyond our expectations. He works so hard from morning to night. We are getting compliments from everyone walking by our house on how great it looks. We look forward to working with him again when it's time to paint our interior! read more

Jarred is amazing at his craft. He painted all the baseboards in the downstairs of our house and several rooms. His attention to detail is second to none including caulking. He is hard working and easy to get along with. Jarrod is clear about his pricing so you understand exactly how much everything costs. I've had several different painters over the years and I would definitely recommend Jarred above all of them. read more

We are SO happy with Mechals Painting!!! We are DIY'ers who had nearly finished a large remodel project and needed a little help wrapping up the painting due to work demands. He started a couple days later than originally planned, but that is to be expected when quality is held at a high value. We came upon Mechals Painting in Yelp and had them paint some cabinets, walls, ceilings, doors and trim. Jarred's work was meticulous and of high quality. There were times when things looked fine to us, but Jarred was not pleased. He corrected this work and the result is that our home looks absolutely fantastic! Price was more than fair too and he takes great pride in his work. read more

Jared was awesome! Takes pride in his work and got the job done for the exterior and interior of our home!

On July 26, 2021 I contacted Mechals for getting an estimate on a painting project for my home. I was never able to get them on their phone. Their website lists two numbers. The first one has a repeated message saying that the voicemail box is full. The second one is not in service. I sent in two requests - one via Yelp and one via their website. I received no response to either request. As a last attempt, on July 28, 2021 I sent a text to their first number (which kept saying that the voicemail box is full). I didn't even know if this was a mobile number but wanted to see if I could reach them, as I was interested in talking to them based on their reviews in Yelp. In my text message I introduced myself, specifically asked them to call me back and gave them my phone number. I received a text back from someone saying that the voicemail box is full due to spam calls. The person never told me who he / she is. The person asked what kind of painting project I was looking to get them to work on. This, after me telling them in my earlier text message that it was a residential project - internal and external painting. Nevertheless I restated that it was a residential project - interior and exterior . Dead silence after that for a day. A day later I received another text message saying that they had not forgotten about me and would touch base with me in a day. The person asked for my home address and I texted it back. Then the person asked if I wanted exterior work done first. I told them that I am open to options and am looking for the estimates to determine next steps. The person said they got it and would be in touch with me. I texted back giving a thumbs up. That was the last I heard from them. Today is August 3, 2021 as I write this review. Since then nobody has bothered to call me back or contact me about my project at home. A business that treats potential customers shabbily, a business in this day and age that can't keep its website updated with correct contact numbers, a business that is so unprofessional in its approach and a business that does not bother to follow up on commitments is not a business that I am interested in dealing with. I would give them zero stars if I could. Overall experience: Very poor. Will not work with them as they don't seem to care to provide good customer service and experience. read more

Jerrad Mechal just spent the day painting some rooms in our house as we get ready to sell. The guy was super professional, friendly with my family, easy going, made good conversation and I have nothing but positive things to say. When he got here we asked him to add in another room to paint, a high ceiling-ed big bathroom with lots of crap to paint around. He gave me a great price to add on another room which was very fair. He stayed here all day, put on lots of paint, and it looks better than I expected. I'd highly recommend Jerrad, he'd be the first person I'd call if I needed more paint done, and I was very impressed. The detail around things like baseboards, ceilings, and edges was perfect. He will show you that his business is well deserved. Extremely happy customer. read more

I had a painting project that needed to be done before our window treatments were installed. Jerrad kept in touch with me each day to let me know the status of his availability even though he was very busy and in the middle of a big job. He ended up sending one of his painters (Raul) out to take care of it. Both Jerrad and Raul were VERY helpful and a pleasure to work with. The job came out great. I will definitely use Mechals Painting again. read more

Jerrad just spent November painting our remodel, baseboard, window trip, touch up paint and our new doors. The quality and attention to detail was phenomenal. Everything looks amazing. I am so glad we hired a professional, and that it was Mechals. I would not use a different painter besides for any of our future needs. Jarrad takes his time to make sure lines are perfect, surfaces are prepped, adds many layers of paint to ensure a smooth professional look and knows his products. It has been over a month now and I am still very impressed and grateful. read more

Our house was so sad looking and hadn't had a paint job inside or out in years. We heard through friends about Jerrad Mechals with Mechals Painting that he was the best. Skeptics that we are we invited him over to give us a bid. His bid wasn't too far off from our other bids. What helped us decide was him. He was so knowledgeable, great customer service and didn't try to sell us what we didn't need. From day one to the end he was a Pro Master at his craft. I can not rave enough about this company. If I could award him 20 stars I would because he went above and beyond and a kind soul to boot.if anyone needs a painter you would be a fool not to use this company. Thank you Mechals Painting, it feel like I just moved into a new house. Amazing!!! read more

Jarred is just amazing his attention to details the cut lines and so much more. Just so respectful of our home, worked with us to move some stuff and worked around our larger furniture items. This allowed us not to rush and move everything at once for a huge paint crew to do a quick job. In the end he even helped us to choose the last painted color we needed in our newly remodeled home. Lastly and most importantly he left our home clean. Couldn't recommend this smaller company more!!!!!! read more

Jerrod and Raul did an excellent job for a very fair price! I highly recommend this company Raul was professional showed up on time every day and they finished in the time that they said they would. read more

We hired Jerrad again (hired him previously to paint our gate) to paint our garage door, front door, gutters, shutters, and trim. He is expert and meticulous. We will not use any other painter in the future as long as Jerrad is painting. Just outstanding. Highly recommend. read more

We hired Jerrad to paint the interior of our house and could not be happier! The quality of his work is exceptional and our house feels brand new. Highly recommend Jerrad for his professionalism, meticulous attention to detail and reasonable pricing. I would absolutely hire him again! read more

Jarrad did a great job painting the exterior of our house. I was relieved that he had a way to figure out selecting the paint color we wanted. The main way to describe his workmanship is THOROUGH. As a huge bonus he was very easy to communicate with and always responded immediately via phone or text. He works with his Father as well if he needs another hand. We felt confident with his experienced knowledge with how to paint and what type of paint is best. He has a relaxed yet focused demeanor which makes for easy, seamless and flexible interactions while he is working on your house. read more

Mechals Painting - Jarrad's exterior house paint job, including garage door and fence. - Painters Near Me - Folsom, California

Jerrad recently painted the exterior of our home and our front stairwell. He did a great job and worked in extreme conditions due to summer heat and smoke from nearby fires. Jerrad was easy to work with and always responded to text and email regarding any questions or concerns. He was honest, hardworking, and very thorough completing the entire job by himself. We were extremely happy with his work and have received a number of compliments already. It is evident he takes a lot of pride in his work and I would recommend him to others without hesitation. read more

Jerrad painted the entire exterior of our two story home (2700 sq ft) this past August (2018). He did a very good job painting it, as if it were his own home. When preparing the exterior, Jerrad went over and above our expectations and did a super job! Because Jerrad is very through, our job took longer than expected, which was fine with us. Even our neighbors were impressed with his work ethic. We liked his work and personality so much, we just had him back to paint our kitchen and accent wall in our family room. There was a lot of cutting in and he did a great job! read more

This is our second time having Mechals Paint do a job for us. Just like the first job this one turned out perfect! He had previously painted a couple bedrooms and just finished painting our front door today. The attention to detail is amazing, the paint turned out so smooth as if it came from the factory pre painted. I definitely will be using him anytime I need something else painted. read more

I highly recommend Mechals Painting for any of your painting needs. Jerrad did an amazing job. His attention to detail is superb. He took the time to do it right and at a very reasonable cost. There is very few people that I run across that have the work ethic that Jerrad displayed. He is a very skilled painter and I was amazed at his techniques. read more

Jerad was one of the most pleasant contractors we have dealt with. We recently had him repaint our entire interior and we very impressed with his attention to detail. He was meticulous, overspray or spilled paint was not an issue and he left our house cleaner than he found it. He made several suggestions as he was going along as to additional areas to paint and even gave us a few extras "on the house" such as fixing some baseboard damage and rebuilding a box in a closet around some duct work. He was very flexible and worked around our schedule and we hardly noticed him when he was there. His pricing was reasonable and we felt we got the best value with Jerad Mechals painting with all the extras and add ons that we threw at him. He handled these changes graciously and fairly without huge upcharges. Most importantly we trusted him in our home and were happy to have him work alongside our family. read more

Jerrad is extremely hard working and conscientious. Many times working till dark to stay on schedule. He was the only painter who could work within my deadline for a thousand less. I've been stung with contractors who don't communicate or finish within a timely manner. Jerrad was accommodating and was true to his contract. I'd rather not share him, but he deserves to thrive and excel. read more

Jerrad Mechals is an exceptional painter. When I was looking for painters to tackle our very large job, I read his reviews and the word "perfectionist" kept being used to describe him. They were spot on! We had some tricky color transitions on bull-nosed corners and wavy ceilings and he painted a perfect edge, giving the illusion of them being straight even though the plaster is not. He used very high quality paint and did as many coats as it took to get full coverage. He was also very accommodating with bringing us test paint samples to check colors and did a very good job cleaning up. When he was all done, he made sure to leave us a sample of each color used, all carefully labeled so we'd know which was used for each room. It took him awhile to complete our 2 houses (2 interiors and 1 2-story exterior) but he did virtually all the work solo because others just wouldn't have done the job up to his exacting standards. Since we weren't in a rush to move in, it wasn't an issue for us. And last, but not least, his price was very fair for such a big job. We will definitely call on him again for any future painting needs! read more

Seriously one of the best businesses in Folsom! Super responsive, reasonably priced, family owned, and excellent work! Jared quoted us super quickly when we sent photos and was able to squeeze us in 1 week later. Other places we called said they would take 3 months! He was able to move around some other jobs or get them done quickly - whatever his magic was - so that we didn't have to have half our trim painted and the other not! We tried painting it ourselves but it got a tad too dangerous and we didn't have the right ladders so we called Jared and he saved the day! Highly recommend. read more

Well, I guess I have to be the 'one star" guy on this company's review page. I want to first say that Jerrad was very nice, fast to respond to the estimate, and gave a fair quote for the repaint of my house. The job painting the exterior of my home was going to be tough, and ugly. We both knew it. But Jerrad's attention to detail and his comfort in speaking with me about the job assured me he was capable, and when the time came, he agreed to it. To better explain my rating, I need to use a time stamp format: Friday April 22nd - We gave the green light. Jerrad agreed to the job. Monday May 2nd - We were told the contract would be dropped off at the house. Thursday May 5th- We still hadn't received the contract. Reminded Jerrad. Friday May 6th- Jerrad stopped by and handed us the contract. We signed it a bit later that afternoon and left it on our doorstep for him to pick up. We asked when a start date would be, roughly. We knew it was the busy season. We were told it would get done soon. Saturday May 14th- Contract still under our doormat. We reminded Jerrad and he asked us to just bring it inside. He let us know he was working hard to get to our job. Tuesday May 31st - Checked in with Jerrad. I just needed to know a rough start date so we could plan our summer vacations and have a reasonable expectation about this big job we were so excited to get done and had been waiting a month to start. Jerrad said he had a couple more jobs, then would get to us. He expected mid June, possibly June 18/19th. Tuesday June 14th - I checked in yet again. Wanted to see if this job could get done at the time he stated. Jerrad said he'd get back to us within a day or two. Saturday June 18th - Hearing nothing, I texted a concerned letter to him stating we were worried he was putting us off or didn't want to do the job. There's even a Yelp review where it clearly appears he took a job and completed it well after we had hired him for our job, meaning we were being put on the back burner. Sunday June 19th - A response is received, stating he promised to give me a start date the following day. Monday June 27th - No response. No start date. Once again I reach out to see about a start date. He responds that he's been working hard. He has one more job, then a small one, then ours. Sunday July 10th - We are told the job would start that week, he'd let us know what day he would power wash the house. Thursday July 14th - Having yet again heard nothing, we checked in. He says he will text us with a power washing date. And asks us if we've picked out colors yet... it's been nearly three months... Yes, we've picked colors. Finally, Friday July 15th, after my wife, me and the rest of the neighborhood had enough staring at our hideous house desperately in need of a repaint, we decide to let Mechals Painting go and we went with another company. I truly wish we could have seen this 5/5 star quality everyone seems to have gotten from Mechals. But we were put aside and forgotten about. I really like the guy, he's super polite. But I think a bit more honesty about our job could have been better. I'm not sure what we even did wrong. We were paying cash and never once rudely got on his case about anything, we just wanted to know when the job would start. I don't expect this to influence your decision. I don't doubt he does great work. But this had to be said. The one star is fair and was earned in this case. read more

We just had a wonderful experience with Jared painting part of our master bedroom and sitting room. He paid great attention to details. Even added an extra coat as the old color was dark!!!! I highly recommend him as he does beautiful work! read more

We selected Mechals Painting after having received a letter from our HOA in The Parkway in Folsom telling us it was time to repaint the entire exterior of our home. Of the four companies we called which were endorsed by The Parkway, Jerrad was the only painter who took the time to come to our house, walk the property with us, and tell us how he would complete the job before giving us a quote. The other companies we contacted communicated only by email or with a written estimate left under the door. Jerrad impressed us with his intimate knowledge of our HOA and how their rules worked, as well as his willingness to do all of the required communication with them prior to beginning our project. We appreciated having that experience on our side. While Jerrad worked on our house, he always kept us informed with how he was progressing, and texted us to ask us questions or to let us know his schedule. We could tell his work would be impeccable given how much time he took to clean, caulk, and prep the house prior to painting. Jerrad is a perfectionist and re-visits any area of the job that doesn't meet his standards. He even cleaned a rust stain on one of our second-story windows we couldn't reach! We now have a fresh-looking home which I'm sure will be beautiful for years to come. We highly recommend Jerrad for any painting services you may have. read more

Jarrad is awesome! I had 3 painting companies come give me a quote on painting my down stairs and baseboards In El Dorado Hills. He had the best price! He was a pleasure to have working at our home! He promised he would get the job done in time for Thanksgiving and he did! He did an amazing job, we decided to paint the ceiling too, and he charged a fraction of what other places would charge. The baseboards look amazing! He was able to paint match our current house paint, which was important to us. He was the nicest person I have ever had do work on our home. He cared about his workmanship, and made sure we were happy! He went above and beyond! He worked for many hours in our home for many days, he didn't complain once about the job. He had to work with other contractors schedules at our home, as we were having a lot of work done at the same time, and he was more than willing to do it! I so appreciate him, and all he did for us! He is skilled at his job, he's been doing it his whole life! We even tipped him at the end of the job because we were so happy with him! Do yourself a favor and hire Mechals Painting for your pain needs! You wont be disappointed! read more

Didn't return my calls. Disappointing and won't be calling again. Moving on! There are sooooo many painters out there.

This is definitely the company to contact if you want an outstanding paint job completed by a true professional who is personable, reliable and thorough. We had interior work done and to say we were completely satisfied would be an understatement. If you want the best, forget the rest and call Mechals Painting NOW! read more

I needed a small job done. Just my daughter's room being painted. And I got a quote from Jerrad back in an hour and he said he could come that week and paint my daughter's room!! And for SUCH a reasonable price!! All of the other painters I'd tried said the job was too small (and kind of rudely, too). Now, what they didn't know is that I also am looking for a painter for my house in the next year. But this was kind of feeling a few painters out for that job. LOVE this painter. He was prompt, and the work done was AMAZING!! He did the ceiling as an extra, just because it looked better. My daughter was SO HAPPY with the work he did and she loves her new room! If you need an amazing painter, look no further!! Thanks, Jerrad for being so amazing!! read more

Jerrad did an absolutely phenomenal job! We contacted him to paint the interior of the home we just bought while we still lived out of state. He flexed his schedule to meet our unique job and timeline. My husband and I are thoroughly impressed by the quality of his work and the timeliness of his communication... not to mention, his price was extremely reasonable. We highly recommend him for any of your painting needs!!! He will be at the top of our list should we need any other work done. Thanks again, Jerrad!! read more

Jerrad recently completed the interior of our new/old home. I was initially impressed by his immediate response to my messages for a quote. I was even more impressed by how kind, polite and respectful he was. He was always here when he said he would be and worked very hard. The best part was the quality of his work! His attention to detail is what makes him stand out well above competitors. We are soo happy with our new interior paint job and grateful for Jerrod and his work ethic. I highly recommend him! read more

Mechals Painting - Immaculate lines. The attention to details are impressive - Painters Near Me - Folsom, California

Hugh Mechals of Mechals Painting very recently painted our kitchen cabinets. He was flexible and accommodating in order to meet our timing needs. We had a short amount of time between closing on the home and movers arriving to move us in. He used quality products, worked quickly with NO mess, was non-intrusive, did an excellent job and was finished in one day. Price was very reasonable especially for the quality of his work. We were VERY pleased with the end result and would not hesitate to hire him again for other jobs. Highly recommend him. Jim Lange read more
