"Best Painter I have ever hired. I contacted Walt in early July. After meeting him, I had a good feeling about him. But I didn't want the job to be done until I was on break from work in October. He was no pressure, when ever I wanted it. Explained that I wanted to brighten up the room, the color I had was dark. He made some good suggestions that I went with. I was not disappointed. Great Customer service. Took pride in prepping the walls and baseboard. He was a clean painter very organized with a plan. He knew I would need a second coat on the walls, and he was 100% right. The work was done in 2 days. With his experience he made it look simple. I have several more paint jobs, and I will be hiring Walt. Thank you Walt."

"Scott was excellent with his oabservations and reccomendations! He was very professionsal in his approach to the repairs. He explained everything thoroughy and the options and potential outcomes depending on the repair solution chosen. Scott went above and beyond by doing a few things extra to make the outcome of my projet perfect and to help me appreciate the end results. I had a newly remodeled bathroom which the original contractor and his crew were not skilled at their craft even though they cam highly recommended by someone who had just used them. Scott had to repair and repaint the entire bathroom and try to camoflage the bad texture and paint job that was done. And on the other side of the shower wall in the bedroom there were 12 nails which popped out of the wall due to the banging the crew did when remodeling my bathroom. Scott repaired and repainted the bedroom wall and it looks amazing! I am so HAPPY! Thank you Scott! "

"Patrick and his crew did a beautiful job painting our 1912 cedar shingle house. The shingles had years of old chipping paint and plenty of sun damage and they spent tons of time carefully prepping the surface, sanding, patching, and more, then coating with tinted primer and finally high quality paint. The house looks beautiful and even more importantly it is going to last longer with their thorough work. Patrick also gave good guidance on color scheme based on years of experience which we melded with our vision and landed on a combination that worked really well. Highly recommend due to the careful quality work they did on a house with lots of challenges. "

"Flex Painting went above and beyond on our rental home’s exterior painting project. They initially provided a fair and reasonable estimate, but as the project progressed, they identified dry rot, a broken window and sash, rotting stairs, and other structural issues. Instead of just painting over the problems, they handled the necessary repairs, replaced gutters, and even added gutter screens and downspouts—all while maintaining fluid communication with regular updates and photos. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality work were outstanding. We truly appreciate their honesty, expertise, and willingness to go the extra mile. Highly recommend Flex Painting for anyone looking for a reliable and skilled team!"

Beginning with the review of work scope and comprehensive proposal through the execution and wrap up — good communication, documentation and most importantly excellence in quality at every phase of work. Daily work began on time (as allowed by HOA defined work hours) and always finished leaving the work area clean and orderly. It was a pleasure to work with such a pro!"

"Fantastic. My house looks terrific. Gene walked the house with me and assured me that his team could address all my concerns, including cracked stuuco and dry rot. They did a great job and everything looks better than I could ever hope for. They even managed to match old paint colors from 40 years ago, that are no longer available. I would recommend and use Gene's Painting again in a heartbeat."

Are you searching for a reliable painting contractor in San Jose, CA who understands your unique needs and delivers exceptional results? Look no further Urbina's Painting Company is a locally owned and operated business with a passion for transforming residential and commercial spaces into vibrant works of art. Since we began in 2018, we've been dedicated to providing top-notch painting services that exceed your expectations.

"We recently hired Urbinas to paint our front door and wouldn't recommend them. Ulysses came out to paint the door only to tell us that he wasn't able to paint a door that wasn't hung in the doorway and asked us to get our contractor to hang the door and install the hardware before painting. After having the door installed Ulysses and his father painted the door but forgot to paint the top and bottom of the door which voided our warranty with the door company. The door company came out and asked if we had hired someone who was licensed and bonded because the work didn't reflect someone who follows the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America standards. When we asked for a refund Ulysses blamed us saying we should have told him to paint the top and bottom and we are now left with a door that is now out of warranty and have to pay for another licensed and bonded painter to fix the mistake."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Neoclassical architecture is all about simplicity and balance without losing the drama of its style. White, gray, cream, and other soft pastels are common. Many homeowners choose a deep natural hue for a pop of color, such as jewel tones or black accents. Modern neoclassical architecture also incorporates brick facades, bringing red into the color scheme.

Textured or older walls with years of wear can make matching trickier. Paint on these surfaces may catch the light differently or have faded unevenly. Try to match in a smoother, less worn spot (such as behind a door or piece of art). You may also want to paint a small test swatch and let it dry completely before deciding, as it may look significantly different once it has cured.

For a stairway or foyer, you should be able to do the whole room with a single gallon of paint. However, if your room is on the larger end, measure carefully and check a paint calculator just to be safe.

While you can paint brick or concrete pavers, you shouldn’t. Even with a matte finishing paint, it still creates a reflective surface where sunlight bounces off. This increases heat during summer months, making the pavers hard to walk on. The reflection can also damage your eyes. Finally, paint seals the pavers in the least desirable way and makes them impermeable, trapping water and moisture inside, which can cause other problems. Paint layers also chip easily.

For larger areas, like painting walls, a roller is the best option for applying eggshell paint. Rollers are made to hold more paint and spread it evenly and efficiently over your wall. A roller will be faster and give you a more even coat than a brush for painting walls and ceilings, and it will avoid the visible texture you’d get from brushstrokes for a clean finish. For smaller areas, like trim, a brush will work so long as you remember to paint with the grain of the wood.
