I needed an estimate to prep and paint the trim on my house which is approximately 933 Sq Ft. The first estimate I received was from another company which was $3,500 to prep and paint the trim and an additional $1,200 to prep and paint the house. I then called Nor-Cal and the owner, Doug Johnson, came by and gave me an estimate for prepping and painting the whole house (including my small house/shed in my backyard) for $2,330. They have done such a great job that I had three of my neighbors cone by to get their phone number. The workers' are friendly, detailed and careful. They did an excellent job and I would not hesitate to refer them to friends and family or hesitate to call them again. I've been having quite a bit of work done on my house and, in my opinion, this was one of the best companies that I have hired. Truthfully, I cannot say enough good about them. I am really impressed and very thankful that I found them.
Description of Work: The job consisted of prepping and painting my house along with a small house in the back. My trim was in really bad shape and there were two areas where I had dry rot that needed to be repaired/replaced. I also had many small cracks in the stucco on my house that needed repairing. Prior to painting the trim they completely primed all the trim which wasn't done by the prior painted that I had used a few years back. They also trimmed all the trees and bushes around the house in order to make it easier for them to paint. I am thankful for this because they did a job comparable to a professional gardener and I feel that I got this work as an extra bonus.

Doug was pleasant, prompt and clear with his estimate, and was happy to supply the brand/type of stucco paint I requested (Behr Elastomeric ) at no extra charge, leaving the remainder for future use. His crew was easy to communicate with, and I felt that they were both so trustworthy and professional that I was free to run errands. It took 5 days to prep and paint my small 3 br home's exterior (footprint is almost 1,300 sq ft) One day the paint sprayer broke, but the problem was quickly solved. Doug stepped in occasionally, but had other business... he left his cell # and called his men, also came by most days to check on progress and homeowner satisfaction. When I found a minor omission near a downspout a few days later, Doug's team came back right away to finish it. My only problem at all was some confusion between contacting the Norcal company in nearby Pleasant Hill and Doug Johnson's outfit in Pinole: Nor-Cal (with a hypthen!) .
Description of Work: Referred by several satisfied neighbors who had success with Doug Johnson's company in the past, I was surprised that their price was so much lower than the other three companies who came to give me an estimate, and therefore a bit fussy about their contract and watched carefully. I was very happy with their prompt and thorough preparation and follow through. After powerwashing, they carefully caulked around each window and door trim. The job was completed efficiently with a combo of priming, taping for spraying, and hand trim work. They were neat and cleaned up every day. Although not found on Angie's List, their price beat the other estimates soundly(!) Is there an A+ rating? LOL Near the end of completion, I to I encouraged Doug to set up with Angie's so that others will learn about their low prices and high quality work.
