Blake did a fantastic job on my dad's house. In addition to repainting exterior wood beams and trim, he performed lots of troubleshooting on rotten beams, including carpentry work. He was a pleasure to work with, and I would use him again without hesitation.

Description of Work: Painted exterior of house and storage shed. Prep was extensive and expertly done. I opted to pay for premium paint, which added to cost. Blake's crew was organized and clean. Will definitely look to use again.

We were very impressed with Blake Fuentes and his crew. They were very professional, always showed up on time, and were pleasant to work with. They were immaculate in their prep and clean up. We couldn't be happier with the results. They did an outstanding job! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Blake Fuentes Painting!

Blake was very punctual, very efficient, and very professional. He was also significantly less expensive than the two other quotes we got. He and his two assistants got the job done in the amount of time they quoted (one week). They supplied the paint after we told them which colors to use. When we weren't sure about one color, he did a test swatch so we could see if it was what we wanted. The walls and ceilings look great. The reason I'm giving him a B overall is because there were a few paint drips on the mirrors in the bathrooms, some on the floor, and one on the carpet; also, some caulking wasn't done. Blake cleaned this all up and finished the caulking, but I had to point it out to him. I would recommend him, and would use him again.

Description of Work: Blake is a good guy. He painted our house and I've had him back to do some interior work. He gives really fair price quotes and sticks to them. His staff of painters are very courteous and professional. Great work; honest and fair man. We will continue to use him for our ongoing painting needs.

Description of Work: He gave me a quote and then he honored his 10% for his first time customer coupon. He painted the entire interior of the house and the garage.

I have not used him as a painter yet because I did not end up going with him. His quote was for about $5,300. He was prompt, professional and the experience was fine.

Everything looks wonderful. They are good people and go out of their way to make sure the customer is satisfied. I live alone and there are things I could not move and they moved them for me. They did a wonderful job with the painting. They went above and beyond the call of duty. I had a group of friends over on Sunday and they all commented on how wonderful it looks. I just cannot say enough good things about Blake and his crew.

Our first experience with this company was a complete interior and exterior paint job of our residence. This is when we experienced Blake's "style" -- not a "Tell us what to do and we'll do it" but more of an application of his experience ("I think you'd be happier if ..." and "Why don't we repair this area first before we paint it"). He seems to be intense about having the finished job come out perfect, so he (and his team, under his direction) will apply caulking to tiny cracks, spend extra time imbedding drywall nails that have come out a bit, filling the tiniest of holes, . . . all resulting in a really "slick" job. We have transitioned from a "bid" relationship to a "time-and-materials" relationship, which, once you have the painter you can trust, is bound to result in the best arrangement, I feel. This company has become our automatic "go-to" painter now, and it's pretty comfortable.
Description of Work: Current painting project is interior walls of living room and stairwell in primary residence, but this company has also painted complete interior and exterior of rental property in January, and complete exterior of home three or four years ago.

We have used this painting contractor in the past, so this report is long overdue. As in the past, he showed up when promised, started the job when promised, finished on time, and cleaned up totally when done. In the past, we had him prepare a written quote, but he has earned our trust so completely that we had him do this job on a "time-and-materials" basis. Totally pleased with quality and price.
