Metro painting did a wonderful job on painting the exterior of my house. Marco and his crew were great. Marco put me in touch with a repairman for a rotted window and he suggested caulking in areas that had not been done before, among other things. They cleaned up after themselves every day. They also painted a room in my house and a ceiling, they covered the floors and the walls when necessary and cleaned up nicely. One of the painters stood out to me, his name is Manuel. He finished the interior work and was very focused and diligent. read more

Excellent work by Jeff and his team at Metro. Only a positive experience from start to finish.

We just had our 1915 3 story San Francisco Edwardian building painted by Metro Painting. From the initial contact and estimate to the end of the project it was a pleasure working with Jeff and his team. They are professional, honest, communicative, flexible, clean, and resourceful. The finished product is amazing and all of our neighbours have commented on how good the building looks. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone in San Francisco who is looking for a reliable and hassle free painting experience. read more

Terrific workmanship, Friendly folks, very reasonable pricing, and they do an excellent job of all of it. What more can you really ask for? We've recommended them to our family members, and all of them have had a great experience with the guys here from Metro Painting too. Great folks, Great job! read more

Jeff's crew with Marco in the lead, did a great job of our SF Edwardian 2-story flat. Totally professional and excellent quality of work. We were pretty low-key/clueless about colors so they helped us pick trim colors that we ended up loving as well - they paint a LOT of houses and have a good sense for what actually looks good in practice, and we totally benefited from this. A note on their integrity: We also had a lightwell that we did not get covered in the initial quote (our fault not theirs) that we then asked them to quote us on after the scaffolding was up (ie they have all the leverage) and so they did quote us a fair price, BUT then told us they felt the lightwell looked fine and did NOT need to be repainted (wow!), but they would still do it if we absolutely insisted - we went with their guidance to leave the lightwell alone and it was all fine. Integrity is in the details of your actions, and we felt this was such a very classy and high-integrity action on their part, and we were very pleased and impressed, and I wanted to be sure to note it in this review for all to see. Needless to say, pricing was fair and reasonable and we would work with them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Jeff, Marco and the whole team!! read more

Metro painting did a professional job with the exterior painting in my building and definitely recommend to anyone

Metro Painting is truly deserving of being a diamond certified company. All the workers are very professional, experienced, friendly, trustworthy and easy to work with. The quality of the paint and primer used were of the highest quality and they were very knowledgable about the unique condition of the exterior of my house. The workmanship is superior and very detailed oriented. Our neighbors remarked that the house looks like new. I have to agree that the crew did a superior job on the exterior of my home. I highly recommend Metro Painting to all my family and friends. I could not be happier with choosing this company, and I'm sure you will not be disappointed when you call Terry Kim for an estimate. Thanks to Metro Painting Inc. for a job well done!!! read more

Metro Painting SF is top-shelf at a mid-shelf price. I am one of those overboard researches for best quality at best price type of guys. My parents have used Metro Painting for decades for exterior of apartment buildings and the interior of their residential home and I had Terry give me a bid. His bid was 30% less of the average bid, but the quality I received was far more. Request Paco as your foreman. He and his team are not only very personable, warm, and accommodating, but also very professional. Many a time did I request Paco's opinion and expertise as his team painted the exterior of my two floor home in Oakland. Paco's recommendations and explanations were very helpful. He is patient with his job - meticulous. He is not in a rush. He wants to make it look the best he can. He discusses every step with you. His team spent 4-5 days on prepping my damaged siding on my home. Wow! Let me say it again . . . wow! It looks so good considering what they had to work with. And even after the primer was on they looked for more flaws and repaired them. Paco and his team are professionals with attention-to-detail - even at the end of the day when they clean everything up as if they were never there. Paco's supervisor Jeff was also very knowledgeable, professional and responsive throughout the job. Due to the dark color of paint on my house it required an additional coat, but Jeff was very fair with the additional costs. He pointed out areas damaged in my siding and was honest in setting up realistic expectations of how it will look when painted (though the team far exceeded my expectations) . Bottom line, he and his team are honest people. Several neighbors have asked who painted our house because they were impressed with the quality. It is clear to me, after speaking with many other painters while receiving bids, that the prep work I received was a super value for the cost I paid. It would foolish to not call Terry for a bid. From top to bottom in the company you will not find a more professional and skilled staff for the buck. read more

We were really happy with Metro. They were the lowest bid and did a fine job on painting the inside of our house (a 3 BR Victorian flat with lots of woodwork). They also painted the entire exterior of the house before we sold it, and did a beautiful job. I'm sure the money we spent was well worth it since it made the house look really handsome. They were on time, cleaned up after themselves quite well and were very communicative. Never a hassle. Highly recommended. read more

Jeff and his team did a wonderful job of interior painting. They helped move the large items and put them back, they gave reasoned explanations for paint choices and explained carefully how they were proceeding. Communications was very good and I will certainly hire them again. The price was exactly the same as other other quotes and very reasonalble. A very satisfied customer. read more

We recently used Metro painting to do a complex, 10-color scheme repainting of our 3-unit Edwardian in the Haight. We could not have been more pleased with the job. The crew was very professional, responsive, and had remarkable attention to detail, the prep work was all done very well, and they did an excellent job repairing/replacing a significant amount of trim and other woodwork that had degraded over the 102-year life of our building. Also, we got quotes from at least a half dozen painting companies. Metro was the least expensive bid, and they held to their quote - we had a few minor items that came up along the way that required a bit extra work, and with the exception of some custom wood repair work and a window replacement, metro didn't charge us anything extra. I really feel we got the best of both worlds with Metro. There are a number of Victorian/Edwardian specialty painting firms out there that promise a top quality product but charge you an arm and a leg, but Metro's not one of them. We got an extremely quality end prodduct - I'd argue as good as anyone else could produce - and at a very reasonable price. Metro has my hearty recommendation. read more

Metro painting did a superb job painting the exterior of our Edwardian. The bid was reasonable and Jeff provided good color consulting. Paco and the crew arrived at 7:30 am everyday. They were extremely responsive and completed a touch up job the next day immediately. We can not recommend them enough. read more

I hired Metro Painting do paint the exterior of my 2-unit building in the Richmond District of San Francisco. I'm very happy with the results and would recommend them to anyone. I got quotes from a few other painting companies and Metro had the lowest bid, in addition to offering more services. The 3-man onsite crew, led by Mario, were very professional, efficient and responsive. Jeff and the crew immediately brought to my attention any issues that I might not have been aware of, e.g., rotting wood panels that needed to be replaced. I had some change orders from the original quote but their cost estimates were very reasonable. They finished the job in about 4 weeks and cleared out any trash, remnants, etc. read more

I did a lot of diligence before choosing this company to repaint the exterior of my home. Checked their references and Diamond Certified and Yelp reviews. The feedback was positive and their bid was reasonable, so I went ahead with hiring them. Very pleased with the results. The crew, with Marlo as foreman, was diligent and professional and did a good job following up on any identified touch up items. They finished on time and on budget. Would use them again. read more

I sat down to write this review and was struck by the fact that what I wanted to say had already been said by most of the other reviews. But I'm going to say it anyway because excellent work deserves high praise! I have engaged Metro Painting several times for various jobs and have always been very very happy with their work. I recently had the exterior and parts of the interior of my 3-story duplex re-painted by Metro Painting and I was really impressed with the work from Jeff's crew led by Marco. The paint crew were polite and friendly, they were very considerate about closing doors to prevent pets escaping, the quality of their work was excellent and they also exceeded the agreed scope in certain areas (painting a railing that hadn't been included in the spec and so on). I also really appreciated Marco's suggestions to use a paint finish that was more hardwearing than the one that had been previously used (it looks great) and his tips about sealing the back deck to prevent water dripping down inside the siding and causing dry rot. I would highly recommend Metro painting to anyone looking for excellent quality work and great customer service at a reasonable price. read more

The outside of our building was definitely in need of a paint job. The window sills had peeling paint, the outside stucco had some blistering, and the window trim was looking shoddy. After getting several bids on this job and reading the excellent reviews about Metro Painting on Yelp, I decided to give them a try. I was happily rewarded by having a reasonable estimate given to me for this job. In addition, they have an excellent crew of workers that are on-time and get the job done in an efficient manner. There are supervisors that are on the site to insure a professional job is delivered in a systematic way. I've supervised many work projects and I was pleased that the workman had smiles on their faces and there was laughter amongst them. That's a good sign that the employees are being treated well by the owners and they enjoy coming to work. When's the last time you could say that about your job. They used excellent quality paint and the workers are very precise with their brush strokes. The work area was left clean and tidy at each day's end. The prep work, priming and final finish coats were all top notch. I would not hesitate to use them again for another job. Quality and service that you can count on! Thank you and keep up the great work!!! read more

In late September I contacted Metro Painting for an estimate on painting the common area of my condo building. Jeff, the owner, came by the building a day or two following my call to see what we wanted done. He said that his company was busy but that he would do our job on a rainy day when his crews couldn't do their exterior projects. He undertook to send me a proposal within a few days. After a few days passed and I hadn't heard from him, I called Metro and left a message. No call back. After a few more days passed I texted Jeff. Again nothing. Apparently, Jeff had decided that he didn't want to pursue the project. Fine. But he should have let me know that he had reconsidered. To have not done so was unprofessional. read more

Metro Painting recently handled the job of painting the exterior of our buiding of six condo units. We put them to the test with our building when we hired them and a contractor to install windows at the same time: complications with the work being done by another contractor (Bay City Windows, whom I do NOT recommend) seriously impacted Metro's work and delayed completion for two months. Metro was completely accommodating to the needs of our building association, arranged for the scaffolding to stay up until Bay City was finished (two months) . Because of Metro's patience, their willingness to work with us through our set backs with the other contractor, their fairness in billing and attentiveness to our phone calls, I give them 5 stars. Bay City was nightmare-think twice about them for windows. read more

I have been using Metro Painting for years on my apartment building. They just finished the exterior of one side of the building and it looks wonderful. They power washed the front of the three story Marina-style building which was painted 10 years ago and it looks like it was just painted. Team Paco is a must. He and his team are very professional and experienced. I cannot say enough good things about Metro Painting. read more

I have had my house painted professionally three times over the years and Metro Painting did the best job by far of the three painting companies that I used. Terry, the owner and estimator, is very professional, punctual, and courteous. The surface preparation was thorough. The finish was uniform. Several months after the painting, a neighbor's tree rubbed against the corner trim on the house and took it down to bare wood. Terry came out touched it up for free. The original estimate was also very reasonable. I will use them again. They are also "Diamond Certified". read more

A friend recommended Metro Painting when I was shopping around for a reputable painting contractor to paint the exterior of my house. I called Metro and the next day, Terry the owner came out to give me an estimate. That afternoon, Terry emailed me a very reasonable estimate along with all the necessary credentials (EPA certificate, proof of insurance, references, etc.). The estimate was very detailed and included all the prep work to be done (cleaning, general mildew removal, surface prep, patching, etc.); the exterior stucco, wood, and metal painting areas described; priming and finish paints used and number of coats; and a guarantee. The added bonus was that the estimate already included the high quality brand of paint I wanted. The painters were extremely professional and courteous, and appeared on time every morning. They always seemed happy in their work and performed their jobs in a very efficient and precise manner. At the end of every day, they covered up their equipment and stored them neatly out of the way, and cleaned up the work area. The painters did a wonderful job prepping, priming, and painting my house; treated and filled all the cracks in my stucco; removed and sanded all the peeling paint on any wooden surface; and also repaired a couple of rotted wooden trims at a reasonable price. It was an excellent job from beginning to end, and I am now rewarded with a beautiful house that I know will survive for years and years to come our typical SF weather. I definitely recommend Metro Painting to anyone seeking a highly skilled painting contractor with an excellent and friendly crew, and now I know why they are Diamond Certified. I give them 5 stars +++! read more

My real estate agent recommended Metro Painting Company to re-paint the upper and lower floors of the home that my wife and I recently purchased, and we are ecstatic about the finished job. All of the accolades that you read on Yelp were what we experienced: fast, super professional, very reasonable cost, and excellent care for the customer. In our case, construction that we were having done on the home necessitated that some finished painted areas be done again, but Metro was very reasonable and speedy in doing the re-work. In addition, they assisted us with a couple of minor non-paint repairs as well as touch-up work on the apartment that we had vacated. All work was done very quickly, with Jeff Kim doing an outstanding job of coordinating painting phases and adjusting the schedule to work around the concurrent construction. The Metro paint crews were always on time, tidy, friendly, and professional. Now I know why my real estate agent recommended Metro so highly. Since he has over 30 years of experience as a real estate agent in San Francisco, I trust his vendor recommendations implicitly! read more
