Rainbow Custom Painting of Santa Barbara

Excellent in every respect!

Richard Negrete and his crew were prompt, professional and polite. They worked singly or in teams and did an excellent job. They worked quietly and diligently. I've since talked to two other parties that have used Rainbow Custom Painting and both of them were equally pleased with the work done.

Richard provided a well trained painter who worked really hard to get the work done professionally in a minimum of time.

I have used Rainbow Bright Painting for extensive painting on the two homes I have owned over the last 6 years, and I have been very satisfied with the work performed by Richard Negrete, the owner, and his crew.

In the case of both properties, Richard spent a lot of time with us developing coherent color schemes and taking the time to make sure the color and type of finish were correct.   Richard has a great eye for color and a talent for touching up and blending more complex faux finishes that need repair or reproduction.

Richard and his employees have been very responsive to our schedule requirements and consistent in completing the jobs on time.

As regards cost, I have always paid Rainbow Brighton a time and materials basis and found Richard to be fair and honest in his accounting.

I will continue to use Rainbow Bright as the need arises, and heartily endorse the company.

Rainbow Bright Painting painted the entire outside of our
house and we gave them an A rating and highly recommended them in a prior review.
After the completion of the painting one exterior wall of our house, which had
many cracks prior to the painting, was not as perfect as we wanted it to be. We
asked Richard Negrete, the owner/contractor, what could be done. He explained
what needed to be done and said he would only charge for what it cost him to
hire two plasterers to replaster the wall and two painters to do a prime coat
followed by two final coats of paint. The job took several days of work and we
are satisfied with the cost and the result. We highly recommend Rainbow Bright
Painting and Richard Negrete, the owner/contractor. He is pleasant, easy to
work with, conscientious about his work, and generously only charged us for the
four men who worked over several days.

With the help of Juan Figueroa at Frazee Paint (see our Frazee Paint review), we selected Rainbow Bright Painting to paint the exterior of our house for $4,500. We met with the owner, Richard Nigrete, and added another $350 for preparing and painting the inside and outside of our fences. Because we have two in-home businesses, we were able to watch a lot of the preparation and painting first hand and each morning Richard met with us to update us on the progress and to see if we had any questions. Because our house had not been painted for a number of years, there were some special issues, which were perfectly taken care of in a careful and meticulous manner. Prior to the final payment, Richard went over the details of the completed work to make sure the specifications we had given him had been followed. The work done was excellent and we were very satisfied with all the special details of the preparation, which is the most important and the majority of the job. We highly recommend Rainbow Bright Painting for the excellent preparation and painting done at our house.

Richard and his crew at Rainbow Bright are true professionals. ?They did an excellent job on our house. ?We needed to quickly paint the house because we were moving, and Richard started the job a few days before his wedding. ?We had bids from several painters and Richard's ?bid was the best: ?not only was it significantly lower than others ($10,000 - $15,000) but his bid was the most detailed about what he would provide. ?We are very happy with the finished product. Richard is a good listener and responsive to the owner's concerns: ?we added morel items as the project progressed and Richard was willing to do them and charged us very reasonably for the extra. ?The men on his crew are all capable, polite and hardworking. When Richard's crew started to paint our exterior staircase , they noticed that the woodwork was rotten. ?Richard recommended a good ?contractor that was able to rebuild a beautiful replacement staircase in a timely fashion. ?Richard returned to finish the painting on the stairs as well as putting a protective finish on the new wooden stairs. ?I will easily use Rainbow Bright again for all my painting needs and have recommended him to my friends.

They did a fantastic job. Their attention to detail was great as was their professionalism. They also had very reasonable prices for the job that needed to be done. They were really great people - very polite & respectful of my belongs & my home. I couldn't recommend better people to be in my house for a couple of weeks!
