Bigler's team did a fantastic job painting both the interior and exterior of our home, along with handling a variety of small repairs. The quality and attention to detail for the painting was excellent; we're so happy with how it turned out. They stayed on schedule and on budget, and it was incredibly helpful to work with one team that could handle everything, rather than coordinating multiple contractors for different jobs. read more

Look no further than Bigler. Did high quality work at a fair price. Friendly and efficient. Would not use anyone else. Received 4 total quotes for my job and Bigler's was the best value, as well as quickest. read more

We were not sure when the building was last painted, but it had been at least 21 years. Our landlord was able to get the money together to get it painted and repaired, and I worked with him to find the appropriate painter. I contacted about 8 companies, and Bigler was one of the most responsive and gave us one of the best quotes. Based on the images of work I found on Yelp that they had done on other similar buildings, we decided to hire Bigler, and we are very pleased with the results. The building had severe dry rot on a lot of the decorative moldings, so when the scaffolding went up and the house was inspected, that was all discovered and added to the quote. The amount and quality of carpentry that the Bigler team did was very impressive. Most of the moldings had to be completely reconstructed. New gutters were needed and added. The team was very considerate and covered all windows with transluscent plastic to protect our privacy. They were prompt and timely, starting no earlier than 8am and finishing no later than 5pm. Our next door neighbor was so impressed that Bigler is now working on their house as well! I highly recommend this business for work quality and value. read more

Bigler Universal Painting - Paint job - Painters Near Me

I cannot begin to say enough good words about this company. The owner, the guys that worked, the quality of the job are at least 10 out of 5 stars. I had four other estimates that were way over this guy. When I met him I just felt like this one was not going to try and take me to the cleaners and when I saw his estimate I was beyond thrilled. Worth every single penny for the care they took in prepping and then painting my house. read more

Bigler and his crew went above and beyond for us. They painted our condo with great care and attention to detail. And he was very communicative throughout the process, making sure our needs were met (and then some). We would trust him and his team to paint our home again. And we'll be calling him as soon as we need his help again. read more

I am a personal concierge who has hired Bigler for several exterior and interior projects. One job was a massive corner Edwardian home that had been neglected for years and the dry rot was extensive. Bigler was on site every day managing his painting and carpenters. The restoration was stunning. My clients and I were at ease every step of the way because he is such a great communicator and brings a new level of integrity to home project management. The results are always outstanding - he treats your home like it is his own. read more

Bigler Universal Painting - Gold trim detail and restoration work - Painters Near Me

We chose Bigler to paint our building. Several months ago our HOA was collecting estimates to paint our 3 unit building. We collected a half dozen estimates and all of them were good. What separated Bigler from everyone else, was that he remained in contact with me to see how our decision process was going. He wasn't pushy, but he wanted me to know that he wanted our business. Our HOA had voted at our last annual meeting to have the building painted however when it came time to actually hire a contractor, one party denied the motion. I informed Bigler of the inability to paint and he was completely understanding. I promised to call him when our situation was resolved. Fast forward 3 months and the reluctant party was selling their unit. With the encouragement by their personal realtor and our willingness to get our building painted we collected the necessary unanimous yes vote to paint. The only snag was that they only agreed if we could have the work done ASAP. Meaning, finish so they could sell. This is where Bigler showed us how important our business was to him. Upon hearing our situation and our conditions, he got the scaffolding up in 2 days, and began cleaning and prepping our building. His crew did a great job. Extremely thorough. We had some weather to contend with but his team did a wonderful job. A definite improvement from our last paint job. Bigler honored the quote even though it was from 3 months prior. All additional cost he was very reasonable. Bigler is great. He is honest, kind, hard working, and grateful. His team does good work and most of all, he wants to paint your place. read more

Had a great experience (they did a somewhat challenging ceiling drywall repair/painting job after we had a chandelier installed, as well as two smaller repair/paint jobs elsewhere in the house). The team was responsive and friendly, and their quality of work was exceptional (I can now see the difference when I compare with the paint job on other walls in my house). Their quote was fair, and they held to it. I would definitely hire again. read more

Bigler is the only painter we trust, and for good reason. He's saved our bacon not once but twice when we needed someone to handle two large and complicated interior painting projects in our home on short notice. The first was years ago when we were getting outrageous quotes for painting three floors. Not only was Bigler's quote better than every other vendor we brought in to do an estimate, he was also the only person that didn't try to use lower quality paint or mark up the paint costs. Best of all, he finished exactly on time and within the budget he proposed. Fast forward a couple years later and our contractor brought in a terribly subpar painter to paint our kitchen. The work was so bad that we called up Bigler and asked him if he could fix it, and he was generous enough to fit us in at the last minute. He was able to correct everything the previous painter missed and did wrong. The quality of the paint job is excellent, and we expect it to last years and years. Most of all, we really appreciate that Bigler is always honest with us about how long something will take and what it would cost to do it the right way. That's just one of the many reasons why we trust him as our painter and have recommended him to our neighbors. read more

I recently hired Bigler Universal Painting to refresh the exterior of my home and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. They communicated well, were always on time, cleaned up everyday, very profesional, I'll definitely be hiring them again. read more

Bigler was referred to me from real estate clients who hired him to paint the exterior of their Victorian. They are very discerning people, so I trusted their recommendation and when it came time for me to hire someone to paint the entire interior and exterior of my grandmother's home in San Francisco, I decided to contract with Bigler. I am so glad I did! Bigler is very friendly and reasonably priced and his crew did an amazing job. His crew was always on time, hard working, responsible and trustworthy. They opened and closed up every day and made sure the home was kept safe while they were there, which was very important to me. They worked both expeditiously and meticulously, the best of both worlds. The job was a tall order (literally) involving scaffolding around the exterior of the home. I was very impressed with how detailed they were from start to finish. I highly recommend Bigler Universal Painting for all painting needs and am very grateful for the excellent job they did! read more

Bigler and his crew are great. I hired them to do some drywall work and paint the basement for a rental unit based on good reviews and I was thrilled with the results. Bigler is an excellent communicator too. The workers cleaned up and were very respectful with our home. Will hire him again for future projects. read more

Bigler Universal Painting gave us a timely estimate, which broke down the different components of the project for us. Once hired, the crew were punctual, arriving prepared to work. Owner Bigler respectfully communicated via text and phone calls; he was also good at letting us know of any unforeseen expenses (there were a few), etc. Our old backyard redwood deck had not been treated in well over a decade (I'd forgotten until I started to notice some obvious dry rot). What we first thought were just a few affected boards turned out to be EIGHT! The crew cheerfully removed all the damaged boards and replaced them before they began staining. Meanwhile, we chose a stain color and bought stain. Once they were done with it all, they hauled away the old deck debris. We also have a wooden entryway surrounding our front door, and this needed to be treated for weather damage. They taped over our doorbell panel, lamp, and mailbox slot, before pressure washing and then re-staining with two coats. Although the crew seemed to have had trouble navigating controls by our water supply and irrigation system (it was left to drip for a day, until we discovered it), and there was a ding in our interior wall by the front door, which had not been there before they were working, after we alerted him, Bigler offered to replace the irrigation parts and to repair the wall, which he eventually did. So overall, I think they try to do decent work. read more

This review is about integrity and accountability. Bigler Chilel was hired to perform several handyman tasks solicited by my realtor managing the sale of my house at San Francisco. This is the commercial side of Bigler's business. The house was vacant and I was not present, but was video monitored. Bigler's team did an excellent job and completed the task list. However, one of Bigler's workers accidentally dented one of the appliances; so badly that the damage could not be repaired to look new again. Once my realtor alerted Bigler of the incident, instead of denying the damage or not taking responsibility, Bigler took full accountability of the accident that he did not personally cause. Bigler purchased a replacement unit and installed it; in time for the open house. I recommend Bigler Chilel for his honesty and personal integrity. read more

They completed the work quickly and the finished paint job looks good. I would hire him again for my next paint job. read more

I would work with Bigler again for the next big paint job. read more
