Highly recommend Pacific Coat Painting- excellent job on our vintage craftsman! Fair estimate with helpful suggestions. Kyle and team were hard-working, well organized, and pleasant to work with. They worked around smoky air and rain and now our house is like new.

Of all the bids I got this company gave the most complete and comprehensive bid. No hard sell. Not the cheapest but a very reasonable price. The service was fantastic. The crew was very careful around our plantings and respectful around us, the home owners. Clean up every evening after work. Todd, the crew leader, was excellent in his management of the crew and job as well as finding areas that needed repair. We highly recommend this company and would not hesitate to hire them again.

I am extremely pleased with the work Josh and his crew did painting my house. Josh, Matt, Matthew and Sean were all very skilled, professional, respectful and did an all around outstanding job. They were remarkably quiet, clean and non-intrusive, and took exceptional care with my berry vines and other plants around the house. Josh worked with me on a minimally invasive plan for allowing them to place their ladders on one side of the house that has heavy vegetation. They were also prompt, kept a clean worksite, kept me well informed of their plans, and considerate of my family, dog, neighbors and guests. On the front end, Kevin was great to work with in getting the estimate-- very timely and responsive. I got three bids-- one was a smaller shop that was slightly lower priced, and then one bid from a larger shop that was more than twice Pacific Coat's bid! I felt the pricing was fair, and feel good knowing they guarantee their work. I am very happy with this company, and would recommend them highly to anyone who wants to have their house painted. Thank you Josh, Matt, Matthew and Sean!

went well, they waited for cooler weather at our request and did a very nice job on our house with nice attention to detail. Could have done a better job of cleaning up the yard after but we would happily hire them again as they were nice, professional, and service oriented

Pacific Coat painted our exterior this September. We actually booked in the spring with Kevin who was great throughout the bid process, answering all questions, providing references, and even tracking down someone to strip our double front door. We didn't get started until September due to travel and other projects on the house, but communication was consistent throughout the summer with the owner Josh and when we were ready so were they. Kyle and Denny are a 2-man crew who have been working together for 12 years. They did everything from stripping, lead mediation, through final cleanup themselves and were rockstars throughout, ....both professional and personable. Kyle came back a couple of extra times to apply additional coats on the front doors. We are very pleased with the outcome and with Pacific Coat, Kevin, Kyle, Josh, and Denny, they were all invested in our success/happiness and we would highly recommend them.

Could not have gone better. These guys are absolute pros! My team (Josh, David, and Gil) showed up on time every single day, got the job done efficiently despite the property being a very tall duplex, and the result it just perfect. They were friendly and attentive, knowledgeable, and worked with my schedule. If you're trying to decide between a few different bids, this is the company to choose. You won't be sorry!

Pacific Coat did a superb job on our home! I was really amazed at how much time they spent on prep and how thorough they were. I'm sure that effort will result in a paint job that lasts much longer than other companies would, such as our previous paint job. The whole project from sales through contact with the workers was great. I'm very late writing this review so we've had the paint job through a winter and I sure don't see any ill effects of the weather. You will not go wrong with Pacific Coat and I'll recommend them to all of my friends.

The entire process, start to finish, was outstanding. Kevin, who came and met with us and worked up the bid was careful, detailed, explained everything and even came back with the owner to verify the bid and adjusted it down a smidge. Brad and his paint crew were awesome, their attention to detail and regular consultation with us was greatly appreciated. We were the last exterior job of the summer and it required some coordination, as the rains rolled in, but they made it work and the finished job was more than we even hoped for. Neighbors walking down the street comment on the "transformation". Friends coming to visit, don't even recognize our home.

Pacific Coat painted the exterior of our 1910 North Portland Bungalow. It required extensive prep work, as the house had been covered in aluminum siding for decades. We removed the siding and found original shingles, as well as a number of quirky problems. After we completed the carpentry, the Pacific Coat time came on to prep and paint.

I had a very positive experience working with Pacific Coat Painting. Each interaction with their employees, from sales to the painters at our home was enjoyable and everyone was easy to work with. The painters were very professional and detailed with their work. I trusted their expertise and felt like they had my best interest in mind. They left the property clean and our home looks great.

It went better than we could have hoped. The sales person was personable, made sure to answer all our questions and said that whatever was important to us around our home would be important to them. Once we decided to hire Pacific Coat the manager and the painters arrived together, toured the outside of the house with us discussed areas of concern on both sides and laid out a plan of how our home would be painted and how they would communicate with us. Our painters showed up on the first non-rainy day available and got to work. They were efficient, courteous and made sure that they touched base with us throughout the whole painting project. As an added bonus they were really nice to our dogs! These are our painters for any project we have moving forward.

Pacific Coat Painting painted the exterior of our home. The house had not been painted in well over 20 years, there was lead paint to deal with, paint was peeling and we had some wood that was questionable and possibly rotted and we have a two story home. Lastly we started this painting project in late September and we have had a lot of rain this year (not a great time to paint outside).

It all went extremely well not only with the work itself but most importantly with communications between Kevin and Josh, but daily with Thomas, Phil, and crew members. Exceptional care and professionalism throughout, with sustained focus on the job at hand, staying with us throughout the process even as we were out of town, texting to stay in touch. I've already provided a neighbor with kudos for PCP and we are constantly getting compliments from neighborhood walkers, joggers, etc. Give the guys a gold star!

It went ok. We had a lot of trouble with communication. Rarely got the daily updates we were promised. Sometimes they said they were coming and didn't show up. Overall the house painting looks good, so no major complaints. They painted all of our windows shut on the outside. We had recently acquired the house and some of the windows were painted shut on the inside. We had asked them to scrape all of the outside windows that they had painted shut (so we didn't have to include this in our bill when we had the insides unpainted), but after three visits back after "forgetting" to clean up the paint from the exterior window cracks, they were only willing to scrape the windows that had previously opened from the inside. So now, when we have the windows unsealed, not only do we have to have the insides done (expected and pre-planned), but we also have to pay extra to unseal the outsides. The outsides were not sealed shut before pacific coat paint came. We also have a few areas where the paint is already lifting and peeling. From the outside, driving up and walking by, the house looks lovely. The windows, lack of communication, and areas where the paint is already peeling are disappointing.

We are very pleased. They guys had a great attitude, worked hard without rushing and being sloppy, cleaned up every day, and paid attention to details. They did things I wouldn't have thought of like painting the doorbell and mail slot to match other paint on the porch. They seemed to care about the house and taking care of it and doing a good job rather than just getting paint on the walls. It was a good experience working with them. The estimate was immediate and fair, and everything went smoothly. When they were done they asked us to let them know if we noticed anything that was missed, etc, and they would come back and take care of it. That is always nice to hear!

The salesman was on time and explained in detail the process of what repainting our house would entail and made excellent recommendations on types of paint and colors that would work well. The exterior had not been properly painted in at least two decades and had lead paint. It is a very tall two story house with significant peeling and weathering. We had two other bids and all three were around the same price, however I liked that they used their own teams instead of subcontracting out the work and were extensive in their knowledge on how to handle lead paint which is why I chose them. The crew arrived early every day and worked late, and sometimes on the weekend, completed the job within the projected timeframe of two weeks, and were clear and concise with their communications and questions each day. They cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day day, were not excessively loud in their conversations or music while working and even brought in the debris cans from the street on garbage day. I truly enjoyed having them around and they really seemed to enjoy their work and took pride in the job they were doing. They went above and beyond to prep some poor quality repairs we had done by another contractor that would have looked terrible otherwise. The house looks amazing. Thank you.

You need look no further than Pacific Coat Painting for any exterior painting needs. From the start we knew we would be in good hands when Adam came and talked to us about the work that needed to be done. Our home was covered in lead based paint so these guys had to use haz-mat suits and remove all the loose paint pieces from each shingle - this was NOT easy work and they took their time and did all the prep work amazingly. This home was NOT easy to paint and they did an outstanding job. Their attention to detail was great - this house has never looked better. Huge thanks to Josh (the foreman) as well as Nate, Hunter, and Alex for doing such an outstanding job. These guys really did treat our house as if it was their own. Lastly, we had a number of other companies bid the work that needed to be done - their bid was very fair for the level of expertise they brought to the job.

[Member Name Removed], Unfortunately, sometimes the estimates get kicked to junk email, might have typed email wrong, human errors etc lot of reasons for a misfire. With that said, not our clients job, to followup. However, this is the first we have heard about the subject ( reading your review ) We have been doing bids for 17 years never had an Angies review of this nature. We are sorry this happened on your project. Frequently, we give bids on the spot but with the plaster work on your home we needed to consult our drywaller with photos. As a business, we want to adapt and grow. Had a meeting with our estimators, and implemented safety nets in email bids; moving forward. We are sorry this event happenedAmy M.

I've been thinking about how to write this review for some time, because in the end I was satisfied with the result - the house looks great and the crew was a pleasure to work with. My main concern is that I was charged for lead based paint removal/mitigation and I don't believe the proper precautions were taken. I wasn't always home when the work was being performed, but when I came home to review paint colors in the middle of the day or if I was working from home in the mornings, I never once saw protective gear being worn. Also, a dry clean process, which is what I was expecting, was not followed. They repeatedly hosed down the house to prep, without capturing or redirecting the water. I have since seen crews painting in my neighborhood wearing full protective gear and using a lot of plastic sheeting. I assume they were dealing with lead, but maybe I'm wrong. At any rate, that was the expectation I had when I signed the contract, but now I just feel like I was over charged...

The estimator did not try to oversell me as some other contractors attempted, so that was refreshing. The crew foreman moved my job forward on the schedule so I had to rush to get my colors finalized. In return, they put a lot of workers on my project and finished it very quickly. That was appreciated since my house was dark and hot in August with the windows covered over during the work. The house looks great and the colors turned out exactly as envisioned. Workers returned promptly to un-stick storm windows that were painted shut. All in all it was a good experience. I would recommend hiring Pacific Coat Paint for an exterior paint job.

Kevin assisted with the initial correspondence and came to our home to review the work to be done. Thom's crew ran the job, and set the expectation that the work would take one week. Sure enough, after starting on Monday, the house was completely painted and looking great by the end of the day on Friday. The guys were very friendly and Thom kept us up-to-date on progress throughout the week. The crew took great care with all aspects of the job. We also have a detailed craftsman window, original to the house, that the guys did a great job of painting. We are very happy with the work and would highly recommend Pacific Coat Painting.
