I'm disappointed in the work. The initial quote I felt was too high, but reserved the feelings until I witnessed the work, it was too pricey for poor quality. I do not recommend this company. I do have photos of the missed items, and the paint left on my brand new windows. I will send you photos so you have what was missed as a reference if needed so you can better inspect future projects. We were missing items that were on the original scope and some of the original agreed processes were not done, they never used primer on the wood as discussed- and they never washed the area. I'm also disappointed it took three trips to correct the mistakes with me having to point out the work missed. There was no compensation for the wasted time and poor quality work, they offered to pressure wash my driveway in an effort to make it right.

Poor workmanship 
 Misleading 3 year warranty
Mike Y.

Hired That1painter to repair a crack in my ceiling . After 3 days the tape pulled away from the ceiling causing the crack to reappear. i tried contacting the company for the past 9 months but never received a returned call . I Also sent numerous emails to Alan but they were also ignored . Although the work failed after 3 days and it took 9 months to actually speak with someone I decided to take advantage of the 3 warranty . I was told the warranty only covers paint . They also accused my 15 year old house of settling and having unstable soil although 3 foundations companies disagree with their claim . Save yourself a headache and choose a professional and more reputable contractor .

Work was claimed as completed, yet, this was still missing.

Liked most of their work but I can't recommend them. Hired That1Painter to remove popcorn ceiling, paint my house and fix some drywall and the work was adequate, at best. I'm still removing paint and dust from the floors, light fixtures and ceiling fans. And I was ok with all that, until it came the time to wrap things up. I had to chase them and call them every day for about two weeks so they would re-install the air registers and light fixtures, this after the job was "completed". On top of that they broke one of the light fixtures and I had to chase them one extra week to get it replaced, however when it was replaced they broke the power line that feeds the light and now the fixture is useless, on top of that they were claiming that it was already broken which is a lie. While I understand things happen, the fact that the project manager tried to place blame on me for the broken fixture gave me pause. Take responsibility and be more professional. It's a shame because I had considerably more work for them: * Paint house exterior * Paint Garage and fix drywall * Epoxy garage and back porch * Paint kitchen and bathroom cabinets * Paint shed But I will take my business elsewhere as I lost trust in these people.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS - MUST READ. I have used That1Painter successfully twice in the past, so I hired them to paint the entirety of my new home. The That1Painter crew did not bring the appropriate materials to do the job, rushed the job and caused massive damage to all parts of my property. Horrible drywall texture work, drips absolutely everywhere, missed painting large swaths of walls, painted my windows shut, damaged doors, got paint over my brand new floors, I could go on and on. The entire crew is completely inept and was argumentative and demeaning along the way. They even said coming back to fix their mistakes is a "hassle, but I'll work it into my schedule". I provided ample chances for them to fix their mistakes, and every time they proceeded to do MORE damage. I have now had to hire an entirely new company to fix all of the damages, costing me and arm and a leg. Do not work with That1Painter under any circumstances. Buyer beware.

After project was completed

I am absolutely in love with our kitchen cabinets and the quality of work that was done by That 1 Painter. We used to have very dark traditional kitchen cabinets. My wife and I knew when we bought the house that the kitchen cabinets would probably be our first project. I was impressed with the initial visit and shocked at the price. As we began to get more quotes for our project, That 1 Painter was the most cost effective. Everything in our project went according to plan. It was done exactly the way we wanted it to be done. It was done in the time frame that was initially promised. And everything was done with a high attention to detail. I am so happy we went to That 1 Painter in order to paint our kitchen cabinets.

Exterior Front after painting

My daughter's home in East Austin was sorely in need of repainting, inside and out. The exterior paint was badly peeling and in need of serious prep work prior to new paint being applied. And the interior also needed some repairs as well. I found That 1 on another social media site and called to arrange an estimate. Rick met us at the house and was very thorough in explaining exactly what they would do to ensure we ended up with a quality job that would last for several years in the harsh Austin weather. I'm knowledgeable though to know that proper prep and high quality paint make all the difference in the outcome, and Rick inspired confidence in his recommendations. Shortly after meeting with Rick, we received a very detailed estimate, including the specific brand and type of paint to be used on each surface. After receiving other estimates (some higher and some lower), we hired That 1 and scheduled the work, which would take approximately one week. We were trying to juggle other workers for some remodel work as well, but our schedule was wildly disrupted due to the now famous Texas winter storm. That 1 project manager, Kea, was fantastic at rescheduling and communicating throughout the process. Alas, Jose (the painter) and his helper arrived as promised and were total pros! They spent 2-1/2 days on the prep work alone, including power washing and hand sanding the very aged wood, replacing some where needed. Rick and Jose both warned us in advance that it would not look perfectly smooth like all new siding, and we were fine with that. It's a vintage cottage after all. The end result exceeded our expectations. With new paint that's been properly prepped, it makes a world of difference! If you're looking for a quick, cheap company to spray on some inexpensive paint, these aren't your guys. But if you want a quality paint job at a very fair price, you won't be disappointed with That 1.

Multiple nicks in the paint.

We hired That 1 Painter in January to paint our bedroom, bathroom and kitchen cabinets. They cost twice as much as other painters but we went with them because they seemed the most professional and offered a three year warranty. They did a perfectly fine job on the kitchen and bathroom. No complaints. The kitchen cabinets on the other hand were a complete nightmare. Despite the sales rep telling me that the doors would be removed for painting, the painters sprayed them while they were still hanging. I immediately contacted the project manager who assured me this was normal. I was still skeptical because I'm all my research on painting cabinets, I had never seen a professional *not* take them down. But we proceeded. After two days, the painter declared the job done but after he left we had a total disaster. Uneven color, clumpy paint, giant brushstrokes (when the doors should have been only sprayed). There were many spots of bare primer which tells me they did not do two coats as they should have. We had the project manager out and he assured me he would have his painter return and fix the problems. (He also shared how shocked he was that this happened because the painter was allegedly their best cabinet guy.) When he came back, the painter was clearly annoyed at having to return. He took things down and began a process of sanding lightly, re-spraying, and then having me approve it. He sanded over and over and painted over and over and there were still issues (nicks, drips, and brushstrokes). The project manager came out and told me it was "problems in the original stain" that were showing through. In hindsight, I should've told him it was most likely sloppy application of primer but I was eager for them to be out of my house. After two days of re-dos the doors were acceptable but still imperfect. (Out of fairness, not posting pictures of the bad bad job because they did ultimately make it better.) I decided to let good enough alone. Until we had spots where the paint was sticking and coming up where the doors touched the boxes. I called the company and true enough, they honored the warranty and came out and touched up the spots. We added door bumpers and they had no more sticking. I waited to review because I wanted to see how the paint held up. The answer? Not great. As I suspected after spraying and spraying and spraying, the paint had not cured properly. It doesn't pass the fingernail test anywhere. It looks okay from afar but as you can see in the attached photo is already starting to chip after less than six months. It looks okay from afar but pretty crummy up close. Absolutely *not* the quality of work I hoped for considering how much more they cost than their competitors. I do think they would likely honor the warranty and touch up the paint but frankly it's ridiculous that they would even need to (and I'm tired of dealing with them). They used high quality Benjamin Moore cabinet paint and it should not be chipping in non-touch areas after only a few months. I know enough about paint to know that the only real way to fix it it to strip down to the wood and do it again. I expect replacing the doors would be cheaper. So in summary, reasonably good customer service, seems to live up to warranty, decent wall painting, do not ever hire for cabinet painting. I strongly regret hiring That 1 Painter to paint my kitchen cabinets.

Before and after.

After getting five quotes from various providers, we chose That 1 Painter for our house exterior and kitchen cabinet paint job, and we're glad we did! The team worked diligently in the heat to complete our project in five days (would have been four except they were a man down one day). Communication with the project manager and crew was good. There was a little confusion on paint selection that was quickly resolved. They were generous with caulking and repairs where needed. We had a section of rot that they creatively repaired and I think the repair looks better than if there wasn't an issue at all! We walked the house with the project manager, Michael, and there was very little to fix up at the end considering the amount of work needed. We're very happy with the results! Another tip: I did a free virtual color consultation with Sherwin Williams who did a great job taking my requests and considerations and turning out some expert recommendations. It's a nice service.

Beautiful painting job on our expansive living area.

I recently had 21st Century repaint the exterior of my house. You can find that review here as…read morewell. I'm writing a new one because this is a different project. After they finished painting my house, a few weeks later after heavy rains I noticed a stain on the ceiling of a guest bedroom. I knew immediately it was the long nagging problem of the "dead valley" along my roof. The house was designed and built according to the architect's drawings to have the roof of the first floor bedroom run into the siding of the house. It was a short "run" and rainfall should go quickly into the gutters. But, this was built under a big, old oak tree and for many years, I've had leaves and twigs built up, damming up the water. If I can remember it, I have to get up on a ladder with a rake and rake the leaves away from where the shingles meet the siding. After one major hailstorm, I had the roof replaced and when they replacing it, I asked them to build something to reduce the leave/branch damming. They did build it, but apparently not big enough. It lasted probably 14-15 years until this recent Spring. Since I had a good experience with 21st Century, I called them out to give me a bid on repairing what was probably rotted trim and exposed flashing and other rot elsewhere. And while they were at it, I asked them to build me a better diverter away from the siding. They came out and took care of it in a day. The guy was there from 8:30 to 5:00, taking a break for lunch, but got it done. Since they were also the painters, they asked me for the leftover paint they left for me (for touch-up) that came in handy as they had to replace the rotten trim and as it turned out a section of the roof decking. Attached are the pictures they took for the bid and then afterwards when they were complete. They were detailed enough to ask me first, "hey, this diversion we're putting in is a lighter grey then your shingles. Are you okay with that? We can go back and get darker materials". I said that was fine. No one can see that part of the roof and so it was trivial to me. The only negative thing from the painting and the roofing experience is so minor it's not worth taking away a star is that there will be a gap between when you sign and return the contract and they contact you about scheduling the actual work. In both cases, I had to drop them a line to remind them I was in the queue. Being a service that can't work when it's raining, I can understand that they have days where scheduled work is delayed and that causes a snowball effect of delays.

Hands down the BEST company to use for your home painting project…read more I requested an exterior paint job on our home and received one of the best reasonable quotes by far from Fine Brush Painting. All details were paid close attention to and if there were any concerns or questions they took care of it, no questions asked. Everything that was listed on the quote was completed and checked off. They worked great around any changes in the weather and completed the work in a timely manner. I greatly appreciate George (owner) & his dad (carpenter work), & Servio, & Elder (paint crew) for the fine job they did. Their expertise and professionalism go a long way.

From the very first day, their professionalism and care stood out. George's father and younger brother handled the trim repairs with skill, while the crew power-washed and carefully taped off every surface: brick, shingles, fence, and more. Their attention to detail was incredible, and it gave us total peace of mind. They even removed the shutters to paint them. The work was all completed very professionally, and they took no shortcuts. What impressed us most was their consistency: always on time, quiet, efficient, and respectful of our property. George personally checked the work every day, which really showed how much pride he takes in his business. Even after we asked for a few extra repairs while the work was in progress, the price stayed exactly as quoted, and it was already the best bid we received. When the job was done, George didn't just pack up and leave. He walked the entire site with us to make sure we were 100% satisfied. That level of customer service is rare these days. Our home looks fantastic, and we couldn't be more grateful. If you're looking for a local, family-owned company that delivers top-quality work at a fair price, George and his team at Fine Brush Painting are the real deal. While this was all exterior work, we will call them again for when it's time to have interior work done, too. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants honest, skilled, and dependable contractors. I will post this accurate and glowing review to Google, too.
