Aldo completed a large home renovation project for us and did exceptional work. He repaired and painted the exterior of the house which had a lot of damage, and he painted the entire interior walls and trim. His team did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them! read more

Aldo Painting did the exterior painting of my one story wood and stucco house in Benicia. They were wonderful! The bid was provided quickly and was complete and detailed and reasonable! They started the job when they said they would. They did careful and thorough preparation of the exterior before priming and painting the exterior in three colors. Aldo was always quick to get back to me when I wanted to check in and let me know what work would be done each coming day. His crew worked carefully and steadily and were easy to have around. Their clean-up was meticulous with no paint rinsing areas left behind like I have had with other painters. Aldo Painting will be my first call for all my painting needs. read more

I will always call Aldo for any painting work I have. He did a really nice job painting our kitchen cabinets. He set up a spray booth in the house, it was surprisingly all very unobtrusive considering what needed doing. The end result was beautiful. Having his employee in the house was also so easy, sometimes having workers in your midst feels disruptive and annoying, his guy was so respectful, quiet and just worked. They were in our house for a week doing the cabinets and painting some trim. Once I saw how conscientious their work was I asked Aldo if he could paint additional cabinetry and he was super accommodating. His pricing is reasonable and fair. read more

Aldo and Ulysses just completed painting the exterior of our house. I can't be more pleased that we decided to hire them. They were extremely ethical and kind to deal with, and the quality is phenomenal. They spent a ton of time with the "behind the scenes" prep work on the house - making sure all the functional issues were taken care of before painting. If there was ever a problem that went beyond the scope of our contract and would cost additional, they communicated it to me ahead of time. And whenever they needed the front door opened, they made sure to tell me so I could keep our indoor kitty safe with his food and litter in a bedroom! Oh, and did I mentioned that we're thrilled with how the house turned out and keep getting random compliments as people pass it? Thank you Aldo and Ulysses! read more

The exterior of my house was painted this October. I did the two sun exposed sides and hired Aldo Painting because my neighbor used him and had high praise. Plus her house looked great! Well, I have to echo her praise. Aldo is a perfectionist as I am, and he takes real pride in his work. I do not think he is capable of doing a mediocre job. At our first meeting he explained what he would do and what he may have to do if there are areas of hidden dry rot, which there was. He repaired what he could, replaced what was was needed, and totally rebuilt my wooden utility boxes which had been a thorn in my side for many years. I have had this house painted before but never did my house look this good after painting. I have confidence this paint job will last 5-7 years. Aldo is not only an excellent painter, he is also an expert carpenter, and he has an aesthetic sense all of which put him in a class all of his own. I would say if you have concerns about timing or clean-up, which I noted one reviewer did, you might talk to him about those concerns before you hire him. In my case, he explained his schedule and his availability as it relates to other jobs he's doing. I was okay with him not coming everyday because I did not want to wait until his schedule cleared which was months away. I wanted the work done before the rainy season so I was fine with him coming a few days a week. He always communicated with me so I knew what his schedule was. Again, I hope this helps your search. Good Wishes! read more

I cannot recommend Aldo Painting highly enough! Aldo and his team painted 2 entire interior floors, plus two stairwells, in our three-story 1912 Craftsman home and it was a terrific experience from start to finish. Aldo's bid was quick, comprehensive, and reasonable. Communications, scheduling, and details about the job were timely, clear, and professional and Aldo and his team were 100% reliable in all respects. The set up and clean up were flawless with great attention to detail. The prep work was incredibly thorough, including smoothing out all the many drywall problems so that all the walls and ceilings were pristine and removing (and then replacing) all of the hardware so that every inch of surface could be worked on. The painting itself, which included a great deal of trim in each room, was perfect. The finished rooms look absolutely terrific, like brand new spaces. Aldo and his team went above and beyond at all times, coming back for baseboard touchups when we replaced the carpets, offering bids on other projects I mentioned wanting to get done, and responding to every knit-picking question that popped into my head with good cheer and clear information. We will definitely call Aldo Painting for all of our future painting needs. 5+ stars for sure! read more

Aldo and his crew just finished painting 6 rooms in our Berkeley home. Aldo's bid was highly competitive, his consultation and communication was clear, concise, and accurate, the prep work was stellar, the finished rooms look great, and his crew was clean, professional, and very considerate of our needs. Highly recommended! read more

We hired Aldo to paint our new kitchen cabinets. He did a terrific job, and I couldn't be more pleased. He set up a spray booth in our garage and meticulously painted the cabinets. He also kept the garage spotless and was conscientious with our belongings that had to be moved out of the way to make space for the painting. Our cabinet installers also remarked to me that they were very impressed with his work. They have a ton of experience installing cabinets, and they went out of their way to tell me how great the cabinets turned out. Also, Aldo's prices were reasonable, and he worked over the weekend in order to complete the project on schedule. read more

Homeowners BEWARE of the bait and switch tactics of this unprofessional and unscrupulous company! Aldo Painting spent 8 weeks on painting the exterior of our home; a job that would have taken a professional painting company no more than 2 weeks. Aldo and his worker showed up whenever they felt like it: Sunday morning at 7:30am and then no show for several days during the week. They had the windows of the entire house taped for over 6 weeks! The left open paint buckets, tools and ladders all around the house, blocking walkways and creating hazards. It turns out that Aldo did not even pull a permit for the renovation and wood replacement that was performed. He only has his own interest and profit in mind without regard to the safety and welfare of others. 8 weeks for a 2 week job! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Aldo and Ulysses. I contracted with Aldo Painting to paint the interior of my house: 3-bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen, and living room. The bid was highly competitive with others I received, including the company that had painted the outside of the house about 3 years ago. I thought "prep work" meant filling in nail holes, light sanding here and there, masking floors and windows. I got a lesson in proper painting: they not only sanded every square inch of every surface that was to be painted, they also ran a silicone bead from ceiling to floorboard to fill in vertical spaces between the wood "slats"/boards in the living room and kitchen and to fill in the spaces between the moldings and floorboards and the concave slats. One of the bathrooms needed extra TLC because the previous owner had built plaster "fish" into the walls. Their attention to all of the details that go into house-making was astonishing! Parts of the ceiling in 2 rooms had water damage; during prep time Ulysses discovered that a part of the wall in one of the bedrooms also had mold. They replaced the sheetrock in all 3 rooms and took care of myriad other items that came up as the project progressed. What I learned watching their prep work showed me how bad a job had been done previously on the outside of the house. Communication concerning things Aldo had not foreseen in bidding the project (2 of the water damage issues) was clear and timely. Aldo also has a sharp eye for color and design. While I was looking at paint chips, he spotted a color which he thought might make for an interesting accent wall -- I agreed -- and then suggested using the same color for the inside front door. The end result is stunning! The day they started, Aldo also mentioned that he did deck refinishing, and I asked him to add that to the contract. He added, in passing, that he could refinish a wood floor. A couple of weeks later, when I had seen the quality of the work he and Ulysses were doing and ran into a dead end with the company I'd spoken with about the floor, I asked him if he could do that job, too. What came out on both of those projects is outstanding. Bottom line: they know their work, they are meticulous professionals, they clean up after the job is done, and they care not only about what they do but also about each other and the people for whom they are doing the work. I cannot recommend them more highly! read more

Our home was painted this month by Aldo painting and I have to say the experience was absolutely the best we have ever had with a painting company. The bid was competitive and detailed with quality paint. Aldo checked in regularly with me during the painting process. His painter Ulysses was professional and very attentive to details. He scrapped off years of paint and prepped wood that 2 previous painters had painted over. He truly is into restoration. Our home built in 1926 is stucco with wood trim. All exterior lights were removed not just masked over and then remounted after painting. We also wanted our porch painted and Ulysses ground down the surface, removed all the old caulk and re-caulked before painting making it look new. He estimated the job would take 10 days and was able to complete in 8. Sometimes weather does not cooperate for painting but we were lucky. They may not be the cheapest bid you get, but if you want a quality paint job done right I highly recommend Aldo Painting. read more

Reasonable, accommodating, and highly skilled and meticulous. We had paint over wallpaper, present since long before we moved in and unknown to us--we thought it was just paint. Aldo fixed the wallpaper where it was coming up without us having to scrape and repaint the room. Big savings and, four years later, still perfect. Thanks, Aldo! We're repainting the kitchen soon! read more
