Get matched with top deck staining pros in Mesquite, TX

"The short version: a poor paint job and terrible customer service from a company run by a bully. Do not trust this company with your home. Pictures included in my Google review since I can't upload them here. Alvarez Painting (owner Paul, his son, and another employee) spent 2 days in April 2019 painting the ~20 doors in our home, as well as several doorframes and 2 rooms of baseboards. They did a rough job from the start, with thin and missed spots on all of the doors, as well as entire sections of doorframes that were missed completely or missed their second coat of paint. I noticed some of these issues on our final review and spent about an hour with the son getting things touched up; Paul spent that time rushing his son along and yelling at the other employee, as well as hurrying me to stop. I wasn't thrilled about the shade of white that the paint turned out (had been almond, they'd repainted using Extra White from Sherwin Williams but it still looked yellow and Paul said that was the best it would be). I paid them about $1800. After they left, I noticed more thin spots, the missed doorframes, etc and contacted Paul about them fixing these issues. He said they would come out after Memorial Day but completely ignored me after I tried multiple times to get something scheduled. I disputed <$200 of the painting charge with my credit card company to compensate for the work I'd have to put in to fixing the missed & poorly done spots but didn't dispute the whole charge because at the time I felt that would be unfair. In November 2019, I finally found the time to touch up the doors myself. I used the exact same paint type that they had, but wasn't able to use the exact can of paint because they'd left it open in the garage and it dried out. I did the touchups and immediately realized that what I'd just applied was a much whiter color than they'd applied. I had 2 other painting companies out to give me an assessment and estimate to fix - they both said that the paint had been watered down or otherwise improperly applied, and that's why there was a color difference. I contacted Paul again about getting a refund, as I would have to repaint everything they'd done because there were now whiter painted areas on every surface. He called me a liar and lied about how long they spent at my house (it was only 2 days, he said they were there for 5 and came back out). I wound up repainting those doors and trim myself, but did have one of the other painting companies out to repaint our front door the same Extra White color. For the record, their paint job came out as white as expected, with none of the discoloration of Alvarez Painting's handiwork."

"Thomas and Michael are excellent and detailed painters. They went above and beyond what they were contacted to do. They refinished and corrected the bad textures that were done by the previous texture guys. They repaired, primed, and painted the the whole interior walls. They also repaired and repainted the ceiling beams. And a lot more... They are excellent and will be our primary painters for all of our future jobs. I feel very lucky to had them for our job."

"Great! Very Responsive with great communication. Went through the entire area with detail and the house looks great after the paint refresh. Even added a couple screws to the loose boards along the fence."

"Sped thru the work. Left spots that were unpainted. Used a sprayer instead of brushes. Hurried thru the job. Left overspray on floors. Had to get them back the next day to clean up. Overcharged me on paint that he didn't purchase. Took days to get a receipt for the work he did. Refused to give me receipts for material to do the job. Left the job dirty. Didn't clean up afterwards."
