Description of Work: I spoke with Carlos and set an appointment with him to come to my office and give me and estimate and he never showed up. I never got a phone call to reschedule and believe him to be very unprofessional.

Because the builder said that he did not do paint, we looked for a painter to prime the materials before the gate was built, and then to paint the gate once it was installed. Mr. Mares gave us a prompt and professional detailed quote of $950, which seemed very high. We decided to do the painting ourselves.
Description of Work: This is a wood driveway gate, 10ft. long by 5ft. high, picket-style. To be built, installed at our home, and painted.
A previous painter had started the work and left things in a mess for several weeks. Carlos and his crew came in and fixed everything in 3 days. Carlos showed up when he said he would, was friendly and professional, and did a very nice job. There were a few areas I found that needed touch up after job was complete and he came the next day after I called him and completed touch up. I have never worked with any home repair people who were as prompt and reliable as Carlos and his crew.
Description of Work: Painted large kitchen including cabinets, ceiling and walls; two colors; patched several damaged areas where tile had been; installed baseboards.

Excellent work. I'm very happy with the outcome. Carlos and his crew were always on-time, always returned calls, and were an overall pleasure to work with. They did the job in less time than I expected, and left my house as clean as they found it. I will use them again.
Description of Work: Prepped and painted large Master Bedroom and 2 bathrooms.

Carlos did a fantastic job!! He came before hand and gave me an estimate; I was in a rush, because it was a rental. He worked on Sat and Sunday to get the job done. He did all of the painting in 2 days and cleaned up very well after himself. He even came back after I had carpet laid down to do touch up work. He did not have to do this, but offered to me and followed up! I would highly recommend him to others and will continue to use his services in the future.
Description of Work: They painted a duplex, 2 bed and 2 bath.

Look above! FANTASTIC!!!
Description of Work: Carlos and his team of workers were absolutely amazing and efficient. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy. They made sure our rental condominium was left cleaner than when they showed up. They ended up painting an upstairs bathroom, hall, door jams, kitchen and touch up on crown molding. We were so happy with their work that we're using them again on our new home!!!

I called Mr. Mares at the last minute as I had someone else lined up and he never showed up. Mr. Mares came highly recommended by another service provider who has known him as a painter for over 16 years. Mr. Mares did all of the work unsupervised as I had to leave town. He came that Monday as he was supposed to and power washed the building. He let the building dry and then came back to take care of the rest. When I returned to home 8 days later, he had completed the job and was asking if there was anything else. I was really impressed with his promptness and his professionalism. He also takes pride in his work and did not leave any mess behind. He finished on schedule and unsupervised. Mr. Mares used one of the highest quality paints and allowed me to purchase the paint at his contractors discount price. He services LA county and Orange County.
Description of Work: He painted the exterior of my home. He did the scraping, patching, and repairing of eves.
