Our house before and after painting
Adam A.

Sparky's did an excellent job painting our house. We noticed we had a few rotting boards on the trim around our house, particularly higher up. I didn't particularly feel like getting up on any ladders myself, so turned to Yelp to find folks who could get it done at a reasonable price. Got a few different estimates and walked around the house, and while Robert didn't provide the cheapest estimate, it wasn't too far off and he definitely gave the impression that he would do the best job. When you're doing something as significant as painting your house, you don't want to cheap out. We didn't intend to have the whole house repainted, but it was surprisingly cheap to do so. It was roughly $3500 to just handle the trim, but $5000 to do the whole house - siding, doors, garage, etc. We decided to go for it and are glad we did. The pictures show what a nice job he did with the place. One thing that I think really sets Sparky's apart from typical contractors is their willingness to go above and beyond. Robert had a helper on his first day out who didn't understand that you shouldn't power wash window screens, and he inadvertently tore holes into three of our screens. I mentioned it to Robert and he replaced them with new screens at no charge. On his last day, he walked around the house and observed four other screens that looked a little worse for the wear (though they didn't have holes). He asked if he could replace those for us as well. I was pretty shocked - we had already paid him for the job, but he was pretty insistent on making the house look as good as possible. He certainly did that! One other thing that impressed me; while he was working on the siding of our house, I noticed our dryer wasn't venting properly. I called a vent cleaning service and they said they'd be out the next day. I asked Robert if it would be a problem for them to clean our vent while he was painting. He climbed up on a ladder, pulled the vent cover off, and cleaned out our vent himself - saving me a hundred bucks! Overall, we love the look of our house after Sparky's got finished, and our neighbors have given us tons of compliments. Robert would also work 10-12 hours days, frequently staying until it got dark outside. He clearly has a great work ethic and loves what he does. I'd recommend Sparky's to anyone who wants a quality job at a reasonable price.

I had a hole punched in my Airbnb wall and Sparky's answered my urgent plea and came out to help patch the hole. He did a great job!

Not gonna lie. I was dreading this task. Our house had not been painted (interior or exterior) in…read moreover two decades. It was looking rough. As a senior citizen, I'd heard all the horror stories about hiring painters and contractors who did poor work, or who didn't finish the job. I did my due diligence by getting several estimates. I am happy to report that Ruiz Painting did a terrific job. During the estimate discussion, Mr. Ruiz listened more than he talked. He is a smart and patient man, and took his time in determining the best course of action. He asked excellent questions, and quickly came to an understanding of my needs. We are selling our home, and wanted to make it as attractive as possible to buyers. He inspected the house carefully, making note of places where repairs would be needed prior to painting. I especially liked how he explained the process. When asked, he readily provided a certificate of insurance coverage. He was clear in stating when the work could be completed, and his crew met every deadline. They left the workspace sparkling clean. Mr. Ruiz is a young man, and his is a young business. However, he has a great deal of experience, and it shows. My house has been transformed, and is a delight to behold. I would absolutely use this company again, and highly recommend them.

The Quality of service was outstanding. The price was fair. The Boss communicated daily, and…read moresupervised the job. I enjoyed having them in my house. When the job was done they cleaned up leaving no trace. Highly recommend this business. Will be hiring them in the future for another job.

When I complained about it, I too was met with a very angry owner named Denny. Just a cussing and everything. He came back out and fixed everything, but it was a hassle. I paid $3400 to him for a large and small bathroom to fix them like new and I had to have it all redone 2 yrs later. The drywallers and painters are sub-contractors too, but the painters did a good job the first time, they had sharp lines and did a great job. But when they had to paint the second time, not so much. I think they were in a hurry and just did it to get out. Plus, he used Sherwin Super Paint in my bathrooms, instead of using a semi-gloss to help protect from moisture runs in the paint. After 2 yrs I had to repaint because it looked worse than before they painted. I had the water run stains everywhere in both bathrooms. Even the paint around all 3 tub surrounds was peeling. And the repairs to my ceiling was the exact same issue I had before they came (4 large nail pops in one section), they apparently did not do a very good job when they supposedly ripped it all out and redone that section. Also wish he would had told me Super Paint is one step above contractor grade paint and that I should have used something better. The new painters used Emerald semi-gloss. The painters suggested it and said Super Paint is garbage. I did not know at the time. Needless to say, this was the first and last time I used Fish.
