I just had Tim and his excellent crew paint the exterior of my large home in San Ramon. They did a great job and plan to use them for some interior painting this winter. I got four quotes in August 2012 for the project, and Tim was the first one I talked to. He gave four reference houses within a few blocks of my home, including my next door neighbor; the other painters didn't come even close in their professionalism and level of experience. Tim's price quote was around twice the lowest quote, but also only about a third of the most expensive. There was an almost 6:1 ratio between the lowest quote this year and quote I received from a large well known construction company last year. Earlier in the year, one of the "college student" painting companies knocked on my door and gave me a quote, and I'm happy I didn't let inexperienced summer interns learning how to paint work on my house. The Three N Painting crew is at the other end of the experience scale, with decades of experience, and their price quote was almost the same, and very similar to another quote. I felt like I got excellent value, great quality work by a highly experienced and efficient team, at a reasonable price. Was the company that quoted almost three times the price better quality, perhaps their prep on the woodwork was more extensive, but the paint they were going to use was exactly the same. If cost were no object, I might have chosen that company, although having Three N replace all the woodwork might have cost less and been the very best quality. I think the highest bid perhaps had a lot of padding, to cover the worst possible repair scenario. Three N's quote I don't think included this kind of padding, and I made case by case choices what repairs I felt were justified, which I knew would be in addition to the base quote. I felt the lowest bids were from people who either had no real idea how to make an accurate quote, or else unemployed painters who wanted to work at any price. Not only did they paint the place, his team was able to replace some rotted wood trim, including a piece that looked almost impossible to replace between a patio door and some concrete steps. He even helped me in color selection. They were incredibly efficient, as my large home only took three days, including extensive prep and caulking of wooden trim. The team very clearly had worked out ways to work really efficiently, I almost wish I had taken video. Tim communicated very well about repair options of rotted wood as the project progressed and we had some very real conversations about what was worthwhile doing and what added only marginally at significant expense. It's refreshing to find a contractor who I can trust. Tim didn't try to sell me anything unneeded, and also didn't just ignore and paint over areas of my home that really did need some repair. I felt Tim and Three N team were highly experienced professionals, who delivered an excellent exterior paint job at a competitive price. I highly recommend them! read more

Office remodel, painting hallway and several rooms. We found Tim through Angie's list and couldn't be happier. Tim stopped by to get an idea of the scope of the work, and gave us a detailed quote before he left. Obviously a person who takes pride in his work, Tim was hesitant to take on the job when he saw the quality of the drywall work done by our contractor. He was totally accurate about the way the patches would show up after they were painted. I worked with our building maintenance person to identify the colors we would need (each room was a slightly different color), and had those paints on hand for Tim. He came over the day before the scheduled painting day and spent over two hours verifying that we had correctly matching paint. (We didn't, and he had to go back to the store for the right colors.) We were not charged for this extra time and effort. Tim and his partner showed up a few minutes before our scheduled appointment. I knew when I saw his meticulously organized and clean truck that he would do a great job, and he did. This place looks great! They pay attention to detail, work carefully, do a thorough clean up, and minimize the disruption as much as possible. Prices were reasonable and fair. I highly recommend Tim and his team for their dependability, integrity, quality of work, thoughtful consideration, and price. Finally, someone you can trust! I found out they also do other construction work... I'll call them first next time! read more

I recently hired 3 N Painting, Tim Clancy, to do some wood repair and paint the trim on the exterior of my house. We've lived in our home for 23 years and have had many contractors over that time do work, both inside and out. Tim and his family were, by far, the most professional people we have found in the business. It started with his prompt arrival to provide an estimate, which was thorough and straightforward, and although not the lowest price I was quoted, it was clear he knew what needed to be done and I felt he would do it right. He arrived on the date promised, early in the morning and worked alongside his wife and sons in a no nonsense manner to complete the job in one day. They were neat, covered all plants and walkways and did an overall excellent job. More often than not, over the years, we have been disappointed with the quality of workmanship from many of the trades, even after paying top dollar for services, but this was a pleasant experience. Tim obviously understands the value of commitment and delivering a quality work product. I would highly recommend this company and will certainly call him again for any future painting needs. Thanks, Tim! read more

We called Three N painting after receiving a referral for the company, for our exterior paint job. We always quote out 2 or 3 vendors before moving forward- and Tim from Three N knocked it out of the park. He provided us a free estimate, and during that process explained how the job would be completed. He was so thorough in his description, that we knew he'd do a great job. He also provided us with three references on the spot- not something many contractors come prepared with. He also had very fair pricing. The time from start to finish for the job was unbelievable. I blinked and it was done! He cleaned our house, and then taped up windows/fixtures/etc. and also filled in holes and cracks. The next day his team started, and finished our house. Beyond being quick, it is of the highest quality. He uses great paint, has a great team and has great attention to detail. He also left our house spotless- no messes for us to clean up. We could not be more happy with the results. We will refer Three N to anyone that is looking for a professional painter. read more

3 N Painting is fantastic. I have gone through remodels, an addition, and many repairs over the years using many good contractors. I would say that 3 N is the best that I've ever hired. They work incredibly fast and efficient. Also, the quality of their painting is excellent. As an example, they totally revitalized areas on my siding that showed cracking and peeling from over exposure to the sun. Further, they sanded the paint brush marks out of the front door and then re-sprayed the door giving it a brand-new better than ever look. 3 N was meticulously thorough and did not miss a single spot. They were tidy and kept things perfectly clean throughout the process. Overall, I felt like I had a new house when they were done painting. I give them my highest recommendation and will use them again in the future. read more

We had a fabulous experience with this company! Had the whole interior of our home painted: we got a prompt estimate, and after 4 estimates, they were the best price, got us started quicker than others, they completed the job faster than the other estimates, and this team did a fabulous paint job. Best in every aspect. Even the colored rooms were perfect. All the team was very professional, they know what they're doing, and were clearly there to please the customer to the smallest detail. Even cleaning up after themselves was more thorough than I've ever seen done!Every last stray speck of paint was gone. They even gave many helpful tips for home painting I wanted to do myself. The home looks perfect; I couldn't have asked for anything better. read more

Three N Painting has painted my home, exterior and interior, twice during the past 15 years. Recently, we had a new kitchen installed and when the contractor painted the walls and ceiling the paint didn't match the existing paint in the adjacent rooms and hallway. Based on my long existing experience with Three N painting I called them and Tim came by checked it out and gave me an estimate to correct the problem. We agreed on the price on March 16th and the job was completed on March 20th. I could not be happier with the timeliness, price or the quality of the work. It is a pleasure to work with Tim and his people and seeing their finished product. March 21, 2017 read more

Barbara J. We hired Tim on Thursday to do drywall repairs for water damage in ceiling of the hallway and bathroom, the back back wall of a downstairs bedroom; a bad texturing job, done by the previous owner, in the living room over the fireplace and the dining room two 19 foot high walls in the living room, and the entire dining room. I am pretty picky about my home and Tim far exceeded my expectations. The walls were beautifully textured and painted without any evidence of previous damage. Tim is professional, efficient , customer service oriented, and above all does amazing work. I would definitely hire him again. . read more

Tim and his team were fabulous. I got several estimates and he offered a great price, had immediate availability, and painted my entire house in 2 days! They were very clean and had great attention to detail. He also helped guide me to a good color choice and I'm hugely satisfied with the work he did. He was quick to return my calls and accommodate all of my requests. He gave me several references to phone and everyone else said great things about his work too. Not sure why all of his Yelp reviews vanished, but he has lots of great reviews on other websites. I will defnitely use his painting services again. read more

Oh my gosh, Tim and his crew did a wonderfull job on our house in San Ramon. First of all, he painted the outside of the house about a year ago (including my wood shed) two tones of color that look great. His work was so good, we hired him to remove the popcorn ceilings thoughout the house and paint the entire inside including doors door frames and baseboards. He finished on time and all of his workers were neat and kind. He even included some crown molding in our dining room at no charge. It turned out looking terrific. I highly recommend Three N Painting. No need to shop around ... cause I did! read more

3 N did a terrific job for us. Tim and Susan are great to work with, and even helped with color selection. The job was done well and right on time. We kept the original color for our ceilings (which looks great), and when I mentioned to Tim I didn't have any touch up for that original color, and was having a hard time matching it, he said "don't worry about it" and cuts a little piece of the drywall from under a smoke detector. A couple of days later, he pops by with a new quart of paint that is a perfect match for the ceiling. That is great service. I would recommend them to anyone. read more

I would highly recommend Tim. Tim and his son did a fantastic job on giving new life to our old oak cabinets. Tim is clearly more than a painter; he's also a craftsman concerned about the quality of his work and that the job is complete. Although we hadn't requested it, he recommended trim to give the cabinets a finished look, and we were very pleased with the outcome. This was a very dusty job, but Tim and his son were conscientious about containing the dust to the kitchen--much appreciated by us and our asthmatic cat. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him for other jobs in the future. read more

This is actually the second time I've had my house painted by Three N Painting. Tim and team did such a great job back in 1999 I wanted to use them again this time. Tim is a great guy and knows what he's doing. I had some additional work completed as well (outside shutters, front door painted & rebuilt window ledges). I was very pleased with the results 20 years ago and even more pleased with the outcome today. I would highly recommend Three N Painting and I will definitely use them again for any of my painting needs in the future. read more

We called Three N Painting to get a quote. Tim was here the same day. We discussed with Tim what we were trying to achieve (which was what we thought impossible) and he told me exactly how they would achieve what we wanted. They absolutely nailed it! They said they would be here on Thursday at 7:30 and were here on time both days. They worked nonstop, all day, both days. Tim and his crew know how to paint. Their attention to detail was superb. My wife and I are extremely happy with the outcome of this project. read more

Three N Painting just painted my house in Danville. Tim and his team did excellent work. Tim gave us great advice on color selection. He even had a sample board painted of both the body and the trim so that we could see a large area, instead of just a chip. And he dropped it at our house during the weekend! You can tell that Tim takes pride in his work. He certainly went the extra mile for us, identifying and fixing areas of dry rot. Well done! Strong thumbs up from us! read more

Tim was amazing! All of his work was done when he said it would be and everything was very clean. I have recently recommended him to numerous friends and family and I wouldn't know why you would want anyone else to paint your house. There are too many companies out there that send one person to give you a quote but then send another team out to do the work. Having the owner on site everyday and doing a large majority of the work as Tim did, was very important to us. read more

So my neighbor was getting his house painted and I strolled over and asked who he had doing the work. He told me this was the second of his houses that Tim had painted, and I thought was a pretty good endorsement. Add me to the list of very satisfied customers of Three N Painting. They were right on time, did a fantastic job and expertly handled extensive dry rot repair that was required. I would unquestionably recommend their work. read more

Our house painting job was just completed in even less time than was estimated. They arrived on time as promised both days. They were professional, efficient, and diligent. The work was completed with care and attention was given to details that were important to us. We would be happy to recommend this company to anyone needing their service. It was a totally good experience and we couldn't be happier with the result. read more

Just an absolutely first rate job. Best seen to date! Tim gave me a prompt quote that was a great price and worked the proposal to my needs. Very professional use of contract paperwork which gave me the comfort knowing that he was licensed as well and would stand behind his work. He and his helper Tom showed up when they said they would and promptly finished the job which looks great! read more
