Interior Painting, Exterior Painting

About us

North Beach Painting Co is a single-owner, single-painter company that has done quality work in the Seattle area for the past 21 years. What this means to you is that the same person who does your bid also does your work. That's me, Dennis Pauley. My emphasis is on meticulous preparation - the key to all quality painting - and the protection of your home and belongings throughout the course of the project. I also emphasize strategy of scheduling to minimize the impact on your life while I am in your home. I work with you to determine the best sequence of job elements to make sure at the end of each day you still have a fully functional house and it remains so for the entire duration of the project. All my work is hand brush and roller - old school style - and I only use the best low and no VOC paints. In the majority of cases I recommend Benjamin Moore Paints, but I am willing to work with you and your preferred paint as well. There are a lot of quality, safe products on the market these days. I also take great pride in helping you choose the right color for your project. Besides lending you my experience on what different colors do in different settings, I also will assist you in applying samples on your wall in different locations and in different lighting so you can be confident in what a color will actually look like when it is applied in your actual house. No tiny color chip surprises! I do full houses, of course, but I also specialize in turning around small projects - single rooms and hallways - that are on your nagging wish list. While I usually have a very full schedule, I can almost always find a hole in that schedule to fit in a small quick turn-around job that is an emergency to you. That is just the nature of the flexibility of my business structure. So please give me a call to set up a bid on your project or to just ask me a general question about painting. I really enjoy helping you solve a painting problem whether you contract me for a job or not.

Job went well, but the damage repair was unexpected and delayed finishing the work.
Description of Work: Hired to repair baseboards damaged when new floors were installed. In one room, discovered nail in pipe from about 10 years earlier, that required tearing up wall and replacing the pipe. The other baseboards were reinstalled, painted and sealed. He did a very nice job.

Dennis called in advance to confirm the time, showed up on time, made sure he knew exactly what I wanted done before he started, did a great and thorough job, and had me inspect the work to make sure I was satisfied. We had some time left in the four hours of the Big Deal, so he painted one additional bedroom wall. He did such a good job, I hired him again in January to paint a bathroom and some trim in various spots throughout the house and he did an exemplary job again.
Description of Work: Dennis painted walls of two bedrooms and hallway.

Dennis did a wonderful job for us. We purchased 2 $113 deals for a total of 8 hours of painting. He repainted our guest bathroom and touched up many other areas throughout the house. He was punctual, very professional, friendly and obviously knew what he was doing. I have absolutely no complaints and would definitely hire him again.

I purchased the 4 hours of touch up painting service for $113 which I thought was a very generous deal and would solve my little issues all around the house. The gentleman who came was very knowledeable, neat and careful and did a really nice job. He explained up front what he would have time to complete and what would not fit in the time frame I purchased. I was very satisfied and really appreciated the quality of the work and the price it was offered for.

As mentioned above, Dennis did an excellent job -- he said he would be here at 8:30, and he was here at 8:30. He got right to work, put down tarps and taped off necessary area, and painted the designated areas. His clean-up was good also - he left the kitchen cleaner than when he found it!
Description of Work: The owner, Dennis Pauley, was prompt, professional, and diligent in the preparation and painting of my kitchen woodwork and walls. He was here 4 hours, and did an excellent job. I will hire him again to do more, much-needed, painting in my house - and will consider him for exterior painting also.

Painting of ceiling, walls and trim of living room and hallway.
Description of Work: Dennis, of North Beach Painting, was able and willing to accomodate my schedule of when I wanted some painting done. I had purchased two Big Deals at $113.00 each which gave me 8 hours of painting. He arrived on time with all his "tools" and I had paint ready for him. I didn't know how much he would be able to accomplish in the 8 hours so prioritized my list and turned it over to him. He completed a living room and long hallway, ceiling,walls and trim. It was done neatly and when he was finished he cleaned up. I saw him on his hands and knees wiping dusty floor where there were no paint spatters. He was thorough, personable and I would definately hire him again.

Dennis was very nice and helpful, willing to go that extra mile to make me happy. First he came out to evaluate what needed to be done, since a previous painter had removed wallpaper and painted but did a horrible job. If I remember correctly, he came out a couple of times and didn't leave until I said I was satisfied. I appreciate his work ethic.

They have been great and really responsive. I had to push out the appointment because I had other work to do, but he is booked up now until after New Year’s. It’s not his fault and he attempt to accommodate the best he could but we just couldn’t come up with anything .i decided to do the work on my own.

Dennis promptly responded to a request for a bid to paint one room, window trim and multiple exterior touch ups. Other painting companies either didn't return my call or bluntly told me that it was such a small job that they would not be able to get to it for months (ranging from 1-6 months). Dennis was professional, prompt and worked hard. In the process of the work he discovered some dry rot. Luckily, he was able to put me in contact with a general contractor. They communicated and coordinated the work directly with each other. The work went smoothly; looks great. And would definitely recommend him!

The painter came to the site to look at the work. We had purchased a Deals times two so we have pre paid for 8 hours of work already. Initially it was difficult to schedule the painter and for him to respond to my emails and phone calls, I had thought this was due to the fact that I had already paid for the work. I had pursued him until he repsonded. After reviewing on site he came up with an estimate to do the work I wanted, as well I needed an estimate from him for the type and amount of paint I should purchase. the price came in higher than I had hoped, but wanted the work performed, so I went ahead with the project. His workmanship was excellent as well as the qualtity of his work. Once the project was started the responsiveness was excellent as well as the time to complete.
Description of Work: walk over estimate painting of outside front dormer main and trim of house. painting of inside upstairs bathroom, staining and sealing of wood surround of hot tub and large planter box. Some of the painting surfaces needed to be cleaned and washed prior to the work.

Response from North Beach Painting Co
Member, I'm sorry to hear that it was difficult to contact me initially (usually my stong point) and that you were unhappy with the cost of the work beyond the scope of the Angie's List Big Deal coupon. I clearly didn't communicate well with you on both counts and for that I apologize. I am glad to hear, however, that you were pleased with the work that I did (Your planter, in particular, looks terrific!) and that you would hire me again...and I hope you do. In response to the negative issues you raised in your reivew I have e-mailed to you a coupon worth four free hours of painting to be used on any interior or exterior painting project of your choice. I look forward to working with you again down the road. Thanks, Dennis

Dennis accommodated my irregular schedule very well. He asked what I wanted done and then organized the work. The new door has very open grain and needed two coats, so he proposed doing the second coat the following day. All the work looks great and he cleaned up everything. The kitchen window was a real mess but now it looks better than anytime in the 30 years I have lived here. I plan to hire him again.
Description of Work: I had purchased 8 hours of painting to take care of mostly interior work required by the installation of a new front door. Also the trim on several windows in the living room and one in the kitchen needed to be repainted. The door had been primed before being installed but some of the new outside trim needed priming and calking.

Overall the experience was great, and my house looks SOOOO much better now, but I did discover some paint splashes later in areas that he had not tarped... I would give an A- if I could go in between the two grade choices...

Response from North Beach Painting Co
Member, I’m glad to hear that you are so happy with the look of your green trim (it does look nice), but I’m sorry to hear that I didn’t properly protect all of your property from paint splatters while doing the work. My goal is to do “A” level work every time and I apologize to you for not living up to that standard this time. That said, I want to remind you and any other of my clients that it is my policy to never completely walk away from any paint job I do. If you or any of my clients finds anything wrong with my work – even weeks or months afterward – you can and should call me and I will promptly fix the mistake at no charge. The good thing about paint is that almost everything is fixable, even dried on paint splatters. In any case, I’m glad that your trim is well protected against the nasty winter weather that is upon us and I hope you will have me back for another painting project in the future and give me a chance to improve my grade to an “A”. Sincerely, Dennis Pauley North Beach Painting Co.

This was just an Angie's "one day" deal, and I needed part of one side of our house repainted (where a portion above a roof section was peeling on the South side - where it gets all the sun reflected onto it!). Dennis called ahead to get an idea what we needed, and to discuss paint (and in this case primer) to make sure I had what he'd need so he could "hit the ground" (or in this case roof) running! He did excellent prep work (scraping, etc.), primed the whole thing, and then put TWO coats of paint over that. He totally cleaned up after himself, and was I could tell by the care he took covering everything that he is meticulous about his work. I've already asked him for a bid on painting a bunch more of the house - outside and in!
Description of Work: I painted houses for a living for a number of years, so I know what good work is. Dennis did a great job, and I can highly recommend him!
