Description of Work: Alex and his team did a great job of painting the interior of three bedrooms, adjoining closets and our hall way. They were very neat and professional in keeping the paint on the walls and off of the wood floors that we recently refurnished. They also did a nice job of patching several cracks near our door jams caused by shifting clay soil. They also helped us remove shelf boarding in our closets since we will be putting in new closets in a few weeks. I would recommend Ace Painting to others looking for painting in your home.

Description of Work: This is the second time that we have used Ace Painting. They did a superior job this time as well as last. The painting involved a commercial building - painting exterior walls on the front and back of the building. We were happy with the price, the work, the professionalism.

I contacted Alex and was immediately impressed by his timely and professional response. The project was started a week after I received the quote and was completed within the five days I was told it would take to finish. I am very picky and have to say that the workmanship and attention to detail was beyond my expectations. Alex was very easy to work with. When I arrived home on the final day, there was literally no trace of the fact that the workman had been there, other than the superb paint job on my home. I will count on using their services again in the future.

The estimator arrived on time, assessed the job quickly and gave a written estimate on the spot. They were able to begin the work about 10 days later, and finished it in two days, doing a beautiful job. The bathroom was particularly difficult, because wallpaper had been removed and paint applied without proper preparation several years ago. They did a good job of sanding down the roughness and the final result is good, although it would be better if this problem hadn't existed, obviously.

I arranged for this job a couple weeks in advance, and as the agreed upon week for the project approached, I still had not heard from the owner as to the exact day of starting, so I finally called him a few days before the work was to begin, so at first I was a little worried. However, the owner and painters arrived on time and worked for two days. They were extremely quiet, careful, efficient and thorough. They were careful to protect everything before starting and cleaned up each day before leaving. The rooms look absolutely fantastic. I definitely will use this company again.
Description of Work: Prepared walls and painted four rooms including kitchen, two baths, one bedroom, using one color per room including ceiling and white for trim.

Alex came and gave us the best estimate (by far). He was very personable and looked after the job closely. It took about 3 weeks to get started (we weren't in a hurry). A large team (about 6 painters) came on a Monday. They power washed, patched, primed some new gutters and patched work, applied 2 coats of paint. They were done by Thursday afternoon. A great job, done very efficiently and a great price.
Description of Work: Ace painted a large ranch style house in Palo Alto. Some patching required. The house hadn't been painted in almost 20 years. Lots of shrubbery made the job a little more difficult.

The work was done efficiently and perfectly. His father came over many times to check on the progress and ensure my needs were taken care of. Alex is extremely professional and accessible. Surprisingly in this busy profession, he almost always answers his cell phone, and has no trouble answering questions and following through with every detail. He did some extra work at no charge, including patching holes. I couldn't be happier. Job well done!
Description of Work: Alex and his company do a fine job. They painted the entire interior of the 2-story 5 bedroom 3 bathroom home including baseboard, doors, ceiling and closets. I was impressed with Alex's professionalism from the first time I met him during the estimate.

The crew of three was very detail oriented, and did a terrific job. They power washed the first day, and spent the next two days repairing, masking and painting. Alex supervised and inspected their work, and made them go over some items he didn't like. The crew was very polite, covered all the plants with plastic sheets before painting, and cleaned up leaving no trace. I am very pleased with the job.
Description of Work: They power washed the exterior, caulked/ sealed all cracks and the entire perimeter of the house between the roof and wall, repaired dents and cracks in the wood frames, and put 2 coats of paint on the stucco exterior and trim.

Frankly, the result is better than I expected. The whole work was done in one day (from 8am to 4:30pm) with 5 people. First they covered the furniture, carpets, doors, then they filled few holes and uneven edges on the walls. They're doing a very careful job, especially on the edges and corners.
Description of Work: Job involved three rooms: living/dining room, and master bedroom. All rooms are high-ceiling. I asked each room to be painted different colors, so there are total 4 colors: white for the ceiling and three different wall colors for the rooms.

Alex came over on a weekend, checked out all the colors we wanted; gave us an estimate. They started the job on time & finished it on time as well. We didn't have to move furnitures out of the house as well. When the job was done they cleaned the house. Also one of the rooms came out too dark, Alex & the team spent a few extra hours to do the job right.
Description of Work: They did interior painting of the entire house. They painted the walls with multiple colors chosen by us. Also the job included painting the ceiling, windows, trims & the cabinet doors for us. They also fixed the cracks in one of the window trims.

Alex stayed right on top of everything from start to finish. He arrived on time for our initial appointment. Provided a list of excellent references and insurance and licensing information. Followed up on bid a week later. His crew started work 3 days after the contract was signed. All work was done professionally and without incident. I would highly recommend Alex and would definitely use his services again.

John, at Ace Painting, gave me a written estimate for all work. I was very impressed by the three painters who arrived on time and worked steadily until everything was done. They were fast and careful in their work. According to John, the painters are his employees and have worked for him for many years. I would definitely recommend Ace Painting and would use them again. We were a "small" job for them and they were able to fit us into their schedule fairly quickly.
Description of Work: The painters from Ace Painting stripped wallpaper from my kitchen walls, primed and painted. They also primed and painted my master bathroom walls & ceiling, and painted baseboard in the master bath & bedroom. Lastly, they touched up the walls on my stairs that had been dinged by the bathroom contractor's workers. There were three painters, and they finished all work in a day.

We were very pleased with Ace Painting. Our job was scheduled before the floors were scheduled for refinishing. Ace Painting used the Benjamin Moore product we asked for in the color specified. The painters were detail-oriented and followed up in places that were found to be spotty. The exterior was painted a few weeks later. The crew did a good job protecting surrounding things from overspray. We were left with quarts of left-over paints in all colors for touch-ups as needed. One bummer was the door bell was not fully masked off, so it got some paint on it. The cost of a new door bell plate was deducted from the final bill to address this error. We were satisfied.
Description of Work: They painted the exterior and doors for $2900. They painted interior walls, trims, and doors in the family room, kitchen, dining room, and hall for $1900.
