If you’re looking for a house painter and you want it done right using quality paint— hire Jade Devitt. The communication was prompt and the team took their time to properly sand, patch and prep the house. Yes, others can do it cheaper and faster — I know because I used that painter before and I am now paying the price to repaint. Jade suggested using a darker shade of paint and I Love it!

Description of Work: They painted two bedrooms for us. They are perfectionists and do everything carefully and professionally. They were sure to cover everything, nothing was painted that shouldn't have been. They were not the cheapest estimate we got, but their work is excellent.

The painters were careful and clean and took special care to protect our new wood floors. They did a beautiful job. They came on time, worked steadily and cleaned up well when they were done. I would definitely hire them again. We needed the job done quickly and Jade was responsive to our needs. He was easy to talk to and a pleasure to do business with.
Description of Work: Prepped and painted two bedrooms, including fixing popcorn ceilings that had water stains and holes. They painted closet shelving that was somewhat intricate.

Removal of popcorn ceilings can be a laborious process to remove and often requires some sort of skim coating to make walls paintable. It was a pleasure to work with Erica and we were pleased to deliver a quality finish.

Jade and his team were on time, easy to work with and did a great job. My walls had several large spots where the old paint was peeling off and needed some serious patching. I was somewhat concerned about how good the end result would come out, but didn't want to strip and repaint the entire wall. Devitt painting was able to smooth it all out and make it look good as new. I will definitely hire again.
Description of Work: Painted two walls, patched several holes and did several areas of touch-up work.

Our company is always looking for medium to large size jobs. However, we are happy to accommodate small one day jobs depending on location of project. It was great working with Ryan.

Rude and bad customer service on the phone, so I did no business with this company.
Description of Work: I received rude and abrupt customer "service" from Devitt Painting. I called Devitt with two needs: 1) I needed a proposal for a small job, the repair and painting of damage caused by a refrigerator delivery company, and 2) I needed several other walls painted because of cracks caused by house settling. Before I could even tell him about my second painting need, this guy cut me off and rudely told me not to waste his time because he's "only interested in big one to two week jobs." So, I was not able to even get an estimate from Devitt Painting. This guy obviously doesn't believe in treating people nicely unless there's big buck$ in it for him. He must not understand that sometimes you do a small job and it can lead to more and bigger work later or a referral for something more lucrative. So, be warned, unless you've got a big house that needs to be completely painted, this company probably doesn't want to help you and might be rude when it brushes you off.

I politely told this caller that at the time of inquiry that I was too busy to take on a small job. The way he is characterizing me is false. As a contractor I reserve the right to refuse work. If I feel a prospective caller/ customer might not be a good fit, or if I feel there is a "red flag", I will politely tell that prospective customer that we are not interested in the job. I commonly (not in this case) will refer other painting contractors that may be a better fit for a particular job and situation, in an attempt to help a customer get the job done and in a timely manner.

Jade is a professional from start to finish, from his communications, to the contract, to the attention to detail, to the commitment to following EPA Lead-Certified standards. His team worked quickly and beautifully. We had another tradesman working to strip a roomful of wainscotting who had radically underestimated his time for the work, and Jade's team both respectfully worked around him and made up time when that guy went long so we could get back into our house. We wish we'd had Jade do the stripping work, as we know it would have exceeded our high standards. We were relieved that Jade's workers actually follow all of the rules regarding lead removal, since our house is so old and we have a toddler. He keeps his certification current and it's clear that he understands the importance of this additional series of tasks now required in his industry. We like working with Jade, and will hire him to paint our home's decrepit exterior, since we know that with his guys, you just don't have to worry. It will be done right, professionally, and on time, and he will communicate with you fully during the process. I'd give him an A+ here if I could.
Description of Work: Interior painting of kitchen, dining room, livingroom, hallway, bathroom in 1915 home.

[remobved member name] were fantastic to work with. We have worked on their interior and exterior painting projects in the past. In fact there are only a few rooms we haven't painted. Bug had specific concerns with lead issues. We dealt with them in accordance with the EPA RRP rules and delivered a quality, lasting finish for both interior rooms and the complete exterior. Bug has referred us to some of her friends as well, which we appreciate very much.

Jade and his crew are real professionals. They did an exceptional job of patching and repairing the stucco and all the wood trim. They also did a great job reglazing a handful of windows in two french doors. They know all kinds of little tricks to make problem areas virtually invisible once the top coats of paint have been applied. Jade and his crew do things the "right" way, even if it takes a bit longer. Jade was always available to discuss any questions or concerns I had during the course of the job. The crew arrived on time every day and cleaned up their work area before they left in the evening. This was one of the few times I had work performed on my house where I just didn't have to worry. I was extremely satisfied with the final product.
Description of Work: Exterior painting of house and garage. Preparation included re-glazing of windows as needed, light power wash, sanding and removing of all loose or cracking paint, stucco patching as needed, wood repair using wood epoxy patch, caulking of seams, priming all patches and bare wood, and covering of foliage and walkways. Painting included 2 coats of premium paint.

[removed member name] was a pleasure to work with. On the estimate I could tell right away that [removed member name] did NOT want a "splash and dash" or a "blow and go" as we painting contractor's say. He wanted a lot of time spent on the prep and he wanted functional weatherization as well. Our company was able to deal with all the issues. [removed member name] spent the extra dollar to have everything done right. Devitt Painting hangs our hat on quality prep so for us we didn't need to change our work procedures to deliver [removed member name] the quality he needed. the house still looks beautiful today (we drive by it almost weekly as it is adjacent to one our vendors)

I liked their professional manner. It seemed to me that they had been through the drills and had been trained by the demands of Hollywood productions. They were quick and responsive. They seemed like professional painters and not somebody who was just doing painting on the side. They were out in 48 hours with the estimate and were on time. Their estimated price was $1900. I had estimates from four different companies, and the only reason I did not use them was because I had a referral for another company from someone I knew. I would consider using them in the future.
Description of Work: I got an estimate from Devitt Painting to paint a 20 by 20 room, which included baseboards.

We do countless estimates each month and sometimes we do not get the job for a myriad of reasons. It's always nice to hear when a prospective client thought you were professional and responsive.. takes the sting out of not getting the job : ) thank you Pat

Jade delivered a quick estimate and was able to schedule the project in the desired timeframe. His team was here early every morning and paid great attention to detail. The week they were working was very hot, and they had to be outside and in the sun all day. They followed through and did an extremely professional job, despite the heat. Jade checked in periodically and made sure the quality was up to his standard. The whole project went very well.

We have worked with [member name removed] for many years. She is always a joy to work with. She has wood stained wood exterior trim which gets beaten by the southern california sun. Maintenance is the directive here and we make sure we prepare and apply only the best products to ensure to longevity in our finishes.

A lot of times a customer wants to get something done quickly and we do our best to accommodate. Often times we will work room-to-room to avoid the job site feeling overrun. It's important our clients feel that we take measures to be clean as we work. It also improves productivity.

the job went very well. there were no real problems, work was timely and of high quality, which is as good as it gets w/ the trades. the quality of the work is top notch, and the price was fair. i took several bids and they were not the lowest, but that's not the only criteria in hiring a trade. if a contractor is going to maintain a license, worker's comp. ins, etc., and use quality products, they inherently can't be cheap. i'm pretty critical as i painted myself in my youth, and have no time for amateur painting. windows and shutters are also very tricky jobs, that i would not attempt on my own at this point -- a special sprayer is needed for shutters, etc. they did everything correctly.
Description of Work: jade and his crew painted some new wood windows, associated shutters (old), the kitchen, and a couple of rooms and doors.

Best painting experience I've ever had. Jade and his assistants, Chui and Jose, are very skilled and are meticulous about getting everything just right. They arrive on time and get right to work. Jade is very knowledgeable -- for instance, he suggested using eggshell instead of flat for my kitchen ceiling (pomegranate) and it made an already gorgeous color even more stunning. All three of them are great to work with and are very patient. I plan to paint my upstairs next year and if they're not available when I'm ready, I'll wait until they are. I can't recommend them enough.
Description of Work: Sanded and patched (where necessary), primed and applied two coats in living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, stairwell, and two doors. They also installed a new toilet paper holder in the bathroom.

[removed member name] was a please to work with. She chose very vibrant bright colors for her interior and we matched a high quality paint that help with coverage and save labor for additional coats, which is often required for rich and saturated colors.

The job was done in a timely fashion. The work was excellent. A worker started the job. The owner completed it. The work, as always, was excellent. Both Jade Devitt and the people who work for him show a great deal of respect for our home. This is not the first time we've used the company. I have used Devitt Painting several times before and will undoubtedly continue to use them again. I was initially unable to contact Jade about this job, having lost his number. So, I contacted another painter. His estimate was several thousand dollars for the same work. He came highly recommended, but his quote was way out of line. I finally called the paint store that originally gave me Jade's number years ago and got it again. And thank goodness I did. He's a gem.
Description of Work: Actually this was both interior and exterior painting. I got a new, large, bay window installed so both the inside and outside trim needed repainting, plus another window needed repair and painting.

Jade Devitt and his crew did a wonderful job on the home I recently purchased. The job was a challenge, but they took pride in their work and really seemed to care about my satisfaction. Pleasant and easy to work with.
Description of Work: Painting the interior of a 1,340 square foot house, which had not seen a fresh coat of paint in over 10 years. A lot of surface restoration was involved, along with using a special spray rig to repaint the kitchen walls and cabinets.
