October 2025 We just…read morehad our exterior and interior home painted by Jim (J&M Painting) in Pioneer, CA. Jim took the time to explain in detail what he was going to do. His bid was very reasonable. The results are stunning. The crew did an enormous amount of prep work, including some plaster repair, making sure all surfaces were perfect before painting. The house looks brand new. We couldn't be happier with their professionalism and craftsmanship. The team was communicative, hardworking, and highly respectful. Jim's positive attitude made the whole process worry-free. We live out of town, and it's been a challenge at times to get a professional to answer our calls. We even trusted Jim to pick the colors since he is also a design expert. Randa Thurman Von Essen

After talking with the gal who answered the phone and explaining the mess we were in, they had someone go out that morning to investigate the problem. They called me back late that morning, gave me an estimate ( a bit higher than I anticipated) and said they could be there the next day. Next day comes, and lo and behold they show up! They completed the job in a few hours including making sure all was up to code. County Inspector came out and no issues. All in all very happy with the job done and the efficiency of their service.
