    Original paint on 22 year old house.
    Judi M.

    The owner Emmanuel dropped off his flyer advertising exactly on the day that I had to decide who I was going to hire to paint our house. He came out to quote our attached house in a professional manner and included specific details. My neighbor and I had to work with our HOA for approval of paint colors, it took weeks so he was very patient waiting.. His crew showed up every day on time keeping the property clean. They are a courteous group of guys. Before and after pictures of our house is amazing. The crew spent the last day touching up and looking over their work. 3 paint colors on house, stucco and fascia's plus metal gate. The quote was very reasonable. We did not go over the estimate cost of the project. His price was true to quote. I even asked for additional work the last day and he was able to accommodate a lacquer finish on my stonework. I recommend this company. He is knowledgeable and very responsive to text messages and questions. Also a great bonus he took drone shots of the house before, during, and after it is an incredible upgrade to have. "Proper Painting" at the end of work on my property cleaned up taking all the trash with him. Many thanks. Judi and Steve. Brea CA.

    Before

    I cannot recommend Proper Painting enough! The owner responded quickly with a quote that was more than reasonable. He was able to match my wallpaper to find the correct paint color, and he finished the job efficiently with absolutely no problems. I am in love with my new bathroom. I will definitely be using this business again very soon.

    Front of home

    Wow, Where do I begin! Emmanuel and his team from proper painting did a fantastic job painting my entire home and back patio! Emmanuel was very professional, kept in constant communication about executing my vision! They did a wonderful job and was reasonably priced! I wish I could give more than 5 stars! I would recommend anyone looking for their home to be painted to use Emmanuel and his team from proper painting! You get everything you ask for and more! Thanks

    Proper Painting did a great job on our new house. They took our dark grey walls and dark yellow walls from the previous owner and now they're a beautiful white. My wife loves the new fresh paint color and all the dark colors were painted over with premium paint to ensure full color block and coverage. The staff was professional and clean. We stopped by a couple times during the paint and all the non painted areas were well covered and protected with paper and/or plastic to ensure paint only went where it needed. They were able to get the job faster than the competing contractor. Highly recommend giving Emmanuel and Proper Paining a shot on your paint needs. They also did a great job with the walls that had to be repaired due to the previous owner not installing doorstops and there were a few walls with door knob sized holes.

    We recently had the exterior of our house painted and we are beyond pleased!! Emmanuel and his crew were top notch painters. They completely sanded and prepped my house and knew exactly what they needed to do. We are very happy with the experience we had with Proper Painting. If you are looking for quality these are your guys!!!

    I didn't know how much work goes into painting an entertainment center. But I could definitely tell Emmanuel knew what he was doing and was able to help me understand the process very easy. The day he started the job him and his team were in time, an carefully covered my floors and furniture to protect them. Throughout the process I was able to see how they wouldn't cut corners to just try to get the job done faster but did everything according to how he had previously explained it to me. I recommend them highly to anyone, specially if you have no experience with other painting projects because Emmanuel will answer any question you may have. I will be hiring them from now on for all my painting projects, Proper Painting is worth every penny!

    Emmanuel, and his team are amazing! I highly recommend them. If there was a sixth star shoot I'll give that to him and his team too! Thats how much i appreciate them. First, off due to my busy schedule I had to keep rescheduling the meeting with Emmanuel to do a rough estimate on what it would take to paint a 3 story town home. Like four times. He was super patient on meeting up with me and my significant other. During the walk through Emmanuel, let us know roughly how many days it would take to paint, water pressure, prep work, 3 different types of rates for basic paint and top notch painting, or with us buying pain ourselves and them doing the painting and prep work. Finally, when the schedule came to painting Emmanuel and the team arrived early\on time to do the prep work and water pressure. They made sure everything/anything that might get wet or get paint on they covered it professionally. They worked their gluteus off during the hot weather roughly around 90 degrees in California doing our house. Amazing work guys. Can't thank you and your team enough Emmanuel. Cant wait to have your team return and do our kitchen!

    We recently had the exterior of our home painted for the first time since purchasing it. We had a lot of questions and even made a color change once seeing it starting to be applied and Emmanuel was more than willing to answer all our questions and stop so we can choose a different color more to our liking. They also did a hand applied paint wash for our brick raised beds and fireplace which turned our great. Workers were thorough and polite. Very happy with the work and our home looks great. Would definitely recommend!

    Emmanuel and his Proper Painting crew were amazing! This was the first time we used them, but we will use them again for sure! Diligent, excellent communication, on-time, good pricing, honest, and reliable. Proper Painting has an excellent eye for color. Their portfolio of projects is impressive and we appreciated their helpful painters eye for color on our project. Neat and clean painters! They painted our front door, inside and out, and the hardware as well...professionals! Their touch-up at the end of the project was spectacular as well, MUCH appreciated, making sure all of the details were all taken care of. Would 1,000% recommend this company...0 regrets, and very satisfied with our end result!

    South Coast Painting

    (171 reviews)

    This is the fourth or fifth time I have hired South Coast to paint at our house. On previous…read moreoccasions, Jason's team painted the interior, exterior, and patio cover for us. This time, I hired them to paint the shed, wrought iron patio furniture, kitchen cupboards, kitchen table and chairs, bar stools, and a corner cupboard. As always, Jason was responsive in communicating, competitive in pricing, professional in his dealings with me, and the quality of the work speaks for itself. I have recommended him to by neighbor as well who was absolutely thrilled with the exterior paint job Jason's team provided.

    Once again, another stellar job by Jason, Manuel, Max, & Benito. This job, in my mind, was a huge…read morechallenge. This was a multi Duplex rental property with occupants. Which means you run the risk of running into various levels of opinion and emotional impact due to the constant imposition of work impacting their usual day to day living situation. This job had high maintenance neglect from the previous duplex owner. Most likely, hadn't been painted in 30 years, possibly more. As with most structural neglect, there were issues with wood rot, termite damage and various degrees of stucco degradation. Jason's team was up for the task. There were tense moments, but Jason was calm (at least around me, haha) and handled little flare ups. Jason was up front regarding damage found and was detailed in explaining how his crew would address issues. This took a month due to the amount of damage repair, prep work and finally paint. Jason's crew made this duplex come from a tired eyesore into the quaint mid century cottages that they were meant to represent. Like always, Jason's crew cleaned up the worksite everyday. Made sure things like paint chips and debris were picked up nightly. For the quality and long lasting results that South Coast Painting provides, it's worth every penny spent. You can get cheaper bids, but know that some companies thin out their paint for a lower materials cost. If you want your paint job to last 3 years vs 8-12, that's your choice. My house was painted 9 years ago by South Coast Painters, and there is no peeling or fading. Even on black painted shutters. Personally I don't want my home painted once every 1/2 decade.
