Job went very well. Started the job on time and workers were there everyday until job was done . Good quality work and they cleaned up after the job was done every day.

These guys did an OK job. The price was not the highest of the bids we received, nor was it the lowest. The quality of work seems better-than-average to me. They did a great job of showing up on time. Their responsiveness is great when you figure out the right person to talk to; however, if you try to get in touch with an incorrect person, they're a black hole. When you find the right person, though, you're golden. When it comes time to get the popcorn removed from the ceilings of our house, we'll call them. They do get the job done, and they get it done in a timely manner.

Description of Work: They came to remove an acoustic ceiling and refinish it - I showed them a ceiling I wanted it to look like, but when they were done it was very sloppy. You could even see the metal flashing seams. They told me if I wanted it to be flat, it'd cost me more. That was a disappointment.

I got estimates from three companies before choosing SD Abatement Services. This company had the best price by far. And they charged me EXACTLY what they originally estimated and did everything they promised to. I'm thrilled with the quality of work--my ceilings look amazing and no more dirty popcorn to contend with. They cleaned up after themselves and everyone I spoke with was professional and courteous. My only criticism, and it's a small one, is that I would like to see them get better with communication. When a homeowner is forced to be out of his/her house (for safety) due to work being performed by strangers, it's vitally important for the homeowner to feel secure in the knowledge that they are placing their home in good hands. The best way to do this, in my opinion, is to make sure the contractor calls with a report every single day. A short, nightly call would have gone a long way toward making me feel less anxious during this stressful time. And it would have raised my responsiveness/professionalism ratings to perfect A's, because I was otherwise very pleased with this company. A small thing, easily remedied. Definitely not a deal breaker. I'd do business with them again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Asbestos acoustic ceiling (popcorn) removal, texture, paint (5 bedroom house--not bathrooms/garage/kitchen/ fam room). Also installed new fans in bedrooms and a can light in the hallway.

It went fine. They were on schedule, the price was reasonable, and when they finish the job they cleaned up after themselves.

I felt as though I made a big mistake in hiring this company. They had a competitive price, but the job took much longer than expected. Wokers were absent at times, the supervisors weren't always present, and the quality of the work was poor. We even sought a second and a third opinion who both confirmed that many mistakes had been made during the project. The owner, himself, inspected the work and claimed that everything had been done perfectly. He further stated that we should contact the Better Business Bureau if we had any problems with the work, but we didn't want to involve any third parties in the dispute. Ultimately, the owner offered a discount of $450 to resolve the issue.

Response from San Diego Painting
We are the recipients of the 2011 "Super Service Award" from Angie's List. We perform, on average, 3-4 acoustic removal jobs per week and have been in business for 30 years. Unfortunately, it is inevitable that after performing 1,000's of removal/re-texture jobs with 1,000's of happy customers and excellent reviews, there will be the occasional less-than-happy customer. Though, in this case, it was not for a lack of effort on our part. First, it took an extra 1/2 day to complete the texture on this job due to high ceilings (at no additional charge) We worked through every day until completion (no absent workers). When the texture took longer than planned and still had to dry for a day, we didn't have a crew to send on Friday, so we called in guys to work over-time painting (again, at no additional charge) on Saturday. There was ALWAYS a supervisor on-site, though the customer may not have realized that one does not need to be the project manager or owner to be a supervisor. The following Monday morning we sent a guy for a full day and a half to perform miscellaneous touch-up per the owner's specification and installing new light fixtures, all in an effort to go above-and-beyond what is considered normal expectation for such a project. We repeatedly urged this owner to contact the BBB in order to bring a neutral, third-party mediator to resolve the matter. She refused and instead brought in two different contractors looking for work, to give their (very biased) opinions. It is very disappointing to find a review like this on a public website after putting in the effort to resolve this matter to our mutual satisfaction. We even went so far as to give a substantial discount. It is our hope that after factoring in "two sides to every story" and a "grain of salt" along with a large majority of positive reviews, you will not hesitate to contact us for a bid on your upcoming projects.

They were great. They were clean. Everything that you need to do they were good. They were on time, showed up, did all the work and they were polite. I would use them in the future.

Response from San Diego Painting
It is disheartening to find this kind of feedback posted in a public forum. All I can say is that we would never intentionally leave anyone stood-up (prospective customer or otherwise). We have two full-time estimators who handle on average 30-35 on-site estimates per week and, in this economy especially, every estimate is critical to our success or failure. I believe this over-sight was a result of an inadvertent clerical error and had we been given the chance, we would have gladly rescheduled for the next available opportunity to provide professional service as originally intended.

Overall it went pretty well.
Description of Work: We had the asbestos popcorn removed from our 1200 sq ft house. The were professional and thorough although expensive considering 2 other bids i got were for 1/2 that but i didn't trust that the others were disposing the hazard properly. They also put in some canned lighting in the kitchen for us. They came back and painted ceiling and redid the tops of the walls where the tape pulled paint off which was nice that alot of other vendors were not willing to do. The only thing I wish was that they put a 2nd coat of pain on the ceiling in spots you can still see the texturing and color variation where there's not enough pain. but it's not that big of a deal. It was hard to tell when it was wet.

They did a good, quality job. We were very satisfied with the work they completed. We had people commenting on how good the house looked when it was completed. The workers showed up at 7AM every morning and worked diligently on the job. They didn't clean as well as I would have like them to do, but it wasn?t terrible. They had an excellent crew, but we had trouble with the supervisor not being present at the job site. We heard there was action taken towards this supervisor, but we cannot confirm it. We probably will not use this company in the future.

I was very happy with the job, but it was prolonged a little more than they had expected. They had mixed up the paint and tried to charge me for the paint they had spoiled but didn't. They didn't pay much attention to my things, like being careful not to get them dirty, but the end result was very good.
Description of Work: They painted both the interior and the exterior of my home. There was much prep work involved on the walls because of the cracks. They worked in approximately 1500 square feet. I think they used Sherwin Williams paint.

They were friendly, responsive and did BEAUTIFUL work. It's like having a new house. I really appreciated the customer service. They have people in their office all day Mon-Fri so I didn't have to talk to an answering machine. If I had questions or when I wanted to add to the job, I had a real person to talk to who responded right away. I would highly recommend San Diego Painting to anyone!
Description of Work: San Diego Painting removed our old popcorn ceiling and applied a beautiful, modern, clean skip trowel texture by hand. After that was dry, they came back and finished by priming and painting. I was so happy with the new ceilings that I had them paint the whole interior of my 2000 sq. ft. home.
