About us

One of San Diego's oldest family-run painting companies. Mike and Pat Chism grew up in Mission Hills and learning the trade of painting from their father, Milton Chism, who was a San Diego painting contractor. Milt began painting in San Diego during the mid 1930s. After finishing college, Mike Chism started working for a La Jolla painting contractor, named Otto Welp. His brother Pat joined him shortly after he started. With the sudden passing of Mr. Welp, Mike and Pat were forced to start their own business, which they did in 1982. Pat Chism worked in the business til he was diagnosed with cancer and passed away in 2006. Today, Mike Chism and several members of his family still run the operations with 10 full-time painters, an estimator and a wonderful office manager. More about Chism Brothers 12 employees. Uses subs for non-painting services. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service fees. License #491884. DBA: Chism Brothers Custom Painting Inc, CBP Painting.

Response from Chism Brothers Painting
Hi [member name removed]. I am sorry that you thought we were overcharging for our painting services. I am also a little disappointed that we received such a low rating. The first time we did work for you was at your LJ property back in the mid 2000s. I was heavily involved with you throughout the whole project and do not remember you being unhappy as you contacted me to bid & paint on other properties you owned. You communicated to me that you were happy. You always seemed pleased with us. The last time we did work for you I believe was 2009. If we missed something back then, by all means, I want to know about it. I will say that we charge a reasonable fee for what we do. We rarely ever get complaints on our service, quality or pricing. We pay our painters a good wage for what they do, and I am not ashamed of that. I want and believe I have great people working for us. I will also be honest and say we are not getting rich and retiring anytime soon! We are a family business trying hard to provide the best possible painting experience. I know there is always room for improvement, and please let me know how best to serve you if there is that chance once again. David C.
