Great job done by Chris. Very detailed oriented and was very attentive to our needs. Would definitely recommend him for your painting needs.

Terrible customer service. I would not let this guy paint my house even if it was free.

We booked Chris from A to Z after having hired a guy "that was supposed to be from our neighborhood" who said he just moved here and was starting a business. He gave us a good deal, but once he realized he didn't have the skill to paint our house he quit, so we reached out to A to Z.. Chris came out and just couldn't stop bragging about how he was from California, and was on the news and was set on "teaching these fly by night painters a lesson." Chris walked our house and gave us a decent estimate. We asked if he did basic repairs? He said yes he did little stuff, and I said awesome. So we wrote up the paperwork and I gave him $500 cash. My wife texted him a couple days later and just had a few questions about the paint. Chris then told her he was canceling the job. I then texted him to ask if I could come pick up our deposit "fearing he was scamming us!" He responded with "checks in the mail." And his reason for canceling was "we were too bothersome with pics and texts." This is from 2 texts mind you and a call! He then proceeded to bombard myself and my wife's phones with texts!!! Saying we were too troublesome, and continuing to reiterate that he thought the job was going to be too much of a hassle. I have screen shots over 5 texts to me "way more than he got." I told him the only thing I wanted was a refund. He responded with "Check is in the mail, don't harass me or I will put a hold on it, and I have contacted the authorities..."WTH? He then sent our check with a letter "which I have" basically saying we are too much trouble and our house isn't a mansion." Absolutely unprofessional and would never recommend. All of this could have been avoided had he just said "Sorry I'm unable to take this job; your deposit has been mailed." read more

Than you A to Z for your excellent work and expertise. I appreciate that your company DOES NOT rush through a job and you actually care about that final product outcome! Chris, your knowledge and suggestions before and during were spot on! Once completed, Clean up was excellent as well! I would have never known you were even here except for the beauty of our home! Thank you A to Z! I have referrals coming you way! Very Happy ! read more

I had Chris come out to give me an estimate, which he wrote out, and could hardly read. My daughter called him to inquire about some of the words she could not understand and he got very rude and disrespectful with her and hung up on her, 3 times. Then he started sending me very rude and disrespectful text. This is not professional or how to run a business!! He is someone I would NEVER hire!! read more

shoddy work, leaves workers alone for most of the project, and then gets hateful and defensive when you try to talk to him. he may bid cheaper but buyer beware! read more

A to Z Painting & Decorating: though the prices are tempting the service has a lot to be desired. The quality of work is sloppy and their is a real lack of professionalism. There are blotches & streaks throughout the house. This is not the outcome that we had expected & when a second coat was requested we were informed that we would need to pay more money. A-Z Painting & Decorating company did not bother to try to make the customer happy. We do not recommend this company, save yourself time & money! read more

My husband and I had Chris paint our mobile home and he was absolutely amazing!! It was ugly brown and yellow before. He painted it a real nice modern grey with white trim. Extremely professional and very prompt. He cleaned up as he went and was so efficient. Will definitely use his services in the future!! His rates were great!! read more

Love this company! The owner is great, very honest and has a lot of integrity. I have worked with many contractors in the past and it's​ hard to find one you can trust. Chris will take care of you and deliver on his promises, I would recommend this company to anyone looking for a good painting job by a​ licensed contractor! read more

The quality of work, at best, is equal to a job done by yourself. Chris didn't do much prep before spraying the paint. He sprayed over peeling paint and fixed them after I pointed them out. Of course I found a lot more peeling areas a few days later that won't be fixed. Didn't use a drop cloth and the masking job was below diy level. Anyway his rate is lowest and if you need someone to spray a coat of paint for you. Then you can use this business. Don't expect real professional results. read more

Chris was very professional. He power washed, prepped and painted. The job took 4 days. The price was was very reasonable. My house looks great and I've had numerous compliments from neighbors and friends. Thank you Chris. read more

We had a painter with almost 50 years experience that we worked with for years. When he retired we wanted to find that special someone to paint the outside of our house outside as we were used to the best. Through stellar recommendations, we found Chris at A to Z Painting and Decorating. We could not be more pleased. He is a professional and his co-painter is just as great. They were here to do their work, had all of their supplies and cleaned up after themselves. Their work is precise, neat, well done and they did not leave the job without my husband's and my approval of the job. They use high quality paint, explained what they were going to do and followed through. We agreed on the cost and are so pleased with the results. He is bonded and from this area which was one of our requests. Chris is very mannerly and trustworthy and disciplined in his work ethic. If you want a great job done and a quality paint - you should go with Chris at A-Z. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company, especially Chris Shelby. I totally disagree with previous comments on Mr. Shelby's lack of professionalism and quality of work. In fact, I find it unbelievable. We were totally satisfied. The work was done in a timely manner and Chris and the workers were very responsive to any questions we had and had total respect for our home. Will be calling on them again in the summer. read more

Worst experience ever!! Work was left incomplete and sloppy! Workers were very unprofessional and rude. Even though we complained about several issues with the job the company was not willing to listen or accommodate, they even threatened us if we did not pay for their lousy work. Customer service or satisfaction is not a top priority for this company! Hire at your own risk. read more

Did a wonderful job painting my house Chris and his crew where excellent,couldn't be happier with the work.

Hired Chris to do my painting did a great job attention to Detail very respectful and I would definitely hire him again.

We had A to Z painting repaint the exterior of our home in San Leandro, and I couldn't be happier with the result. Chris was very thorough in his work and knew exactly was required to get the job done. Their rates are very reasonable and I highly recommend A to Z painting. Will certainly use them again. read more
