Vinny and his team--Jose and Manuel--were a pleasure to work with. Great service, great price, professional, punctual, tidy, considerate of building occupants. And the paint job was gorgeous!!! If everyone was like Vinny, Jose and Manuel we'd have world peace. read more

Absolutely horrible. Unprofessional and unresponsive after signing contract. Worst in my experience. Don't use

Hi, I was very fortunate to have Vince available for a lead abatement solution (not caused by Cronin Painting) for soil contamination. He is one of the most knowledgeable, responsive, reasonable, and overall very professional contractors I've ever encountered in 20+ years in SF. I will certain to use Cronin Painting for our next exterior painting of a bldg. in Noe Valley. Thanks Vince. read more

Mr. Cronin's (Vinny) team did a great job painting the exterior of my house in San Francisco in May 2016. The exterior paint job took about one week which included removal of the old paints, patch work and two coats of exterior paint. The house feel fresh and new again. I really appreciate his crew's professional work and experience. They set up the scaffolding and added plastics at the bottom to catch residue paints and debris. An anonymous neighbor called the City's lead inspection department to the job site, TWICE. Both times the crew are doing the proper coverage resulting the inspector scratching his head why this neighbor called. I recommend anyone looking for a painter to give Vinny's team a chance to earn your business. They have certainly earned mine. read more

LEAD ABATEMENT!!! Vinny Cronin came in and lead abated our 3-unit building after our baby tested positive for lead. He did an fantastic job at a time when we were quite worried and vulnerable. The job was done quickly and with the utmost professionalism. It was our first time working with Vinny and we were impressed right away. Unlike other contractors we've hired, he had a daily presence at the jobsite and took full responsibility for his crew and the work that was being done. He was also kind and respectful to his crew members, which was refreshing. Vinny is a clear communicator - easy to get in touch with, easy to talk with, and he is able to dumb down his technical language when necessary so we can understand our options and what is being done. His prices are competitive and the work is thorough. We felt very comfortable/ trusting with Vinny and the crew in our house. They were all respectful and clean, and careful to keep all the protective draping and so forth in place to prevent the spread of lead dust. We came to see that Vinny has integrity and we learned we could trust him to take responsibility for correcting things should something go wrong. There have been few errors, but one window installation did go wrong, and Vinny got right on to fixing it at his own expense with no attitude whatsoever (he ordered a brand new one). Vinny is a down-to-earth, cool guy. We have continued to call on him for painting jobs and various repairs in the last 5 years, because theres nothing more important than having trust and easy communication when it comes to selecting a contractor. He has a set of keys to our place and we are totally comfortable asking him to stop by to inspect something when no one is home. read more

Cronin Painting has been our only painter for the last 12 years. When we first bought our two unit house Cronin re-painted EVERY wall in the entire place and did a fabulous job. Since then we have had the completely repaint the entire exterior and do several projects indoors. Vincent Cronin has consistently been everything one wants in a painting contractor: honest, fair, realistic bids, reliable, trustworthy and competent. His crew are all very professional and neat. They show up on time and work efficiently, neatly and do a wonderful job with the painting. They are well supervised and Vincent is very much on the scene for the job and makes sure the work is top notch. He also has good judgement about color and we trusted his advice about various aspects of the project. People comment consistently on our paint and I know it is because of the careful work that they do. And it was a real plus that I trusted them to be careful with my furniture. They cleaned up well every day and tried to make the process as unintrusive as possible. Vincent has been a pleasure to work with. If I could clone him to take care of all of our other contracting needs I would! A very nice guy who runs a great business. read more

In the last year I've used several contractors/suppliers for updating various parts of a 1980s condo - painter, fence repair, window repair, HVAC repair, general contractor and electrician. Cronin Painting was odd. About 75% of the work was very good - including patching holes & fixing cracks. But the other 25% significantly detracted from that, including laziness to do a good job on one ceiling and then after redoing it (on my request) leaving paint splatter everywhere. There were other splatter issues as well, even on furniture which fortunately came off. read more

I had to delete my previous review because Yelp is convinced i am not reliable. i'd of course like to believe otherwise.. . An update in 2015: OK, after 10 years of neglect, a bunch of our windows needed replacing. While the paint overall was still in great shape, we decided to repaint since we were going to have to have the windows repainted anyway. Of course we went with Cronin Painting again. And the third time was as great as the first. The crew was clean, quiet, meticulous. And fast - they painted our 3 story house in about a week. It looks great! Vincent is so easy to work with - he touched base regularly and there were no surprises. I wish everyone were as easy to work with as Vincent and his crew. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vincent Cronin and his crew painted our house a few years ago and it still looks magnificent. That's no small feat for our foggy San Francisco climate. As the job started, we found substantial dry rot - Vincent expertly took care of that too. All this happened at a fraction of the cost of our previous paint job and it's lasted better too. Vinny and his team show up promptly every day, they were quite pleasant and courteous to have around the house. We were so pleased with the result that we brought Vinny back to paint a few rooms inside our house including the stairway. Again, they did a quick, thorough and tidy job. I'd highly recommend Vinny to anyone looking to have their house interior or exterior painted. When it comes time to repaint our place, we'll call him without hesitation read more

We can't say enough good things about Cronin Painting. The process was hassle-free from start to finish and our house looks fantastic. Vinny is the best...a professional and experienced man, a friendly man, and a man who responds to phone calls and emails. He was very present during the duration of the project, often stopping by the site. The painting crew was superb. They are hardworking, on time, very polite, very tidy (they never left any trash), and regularly conferred with us about the house..."Today we are priming the exterior," or "Which color have you chosen for the house numbers?" We added an ornamentation to the house (which was a new thing for us) and Vinny gave us the catalog, ordered the piece, the crew painted it at the time of the job and we all discussed where to install it. The customer service provided by Cronin Painting is unbelievable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Every time I go outside I just stand there looking at my house. I love it, and by the comments from the neighbors, so do they. It was a pleasure to work with Cronin Painting and I would definitely hire them again. read more

Vinny, the owner, is a professional and experienced man. Working with him has been easy. The painters, Alex and Selbin, are outstanding. They arrive promptly every morning and work hard throughout the day. They are meticulous in their work and in cleaning up at the end of the day. They are also very courteous and, at times, went "above and beyond" (i.e. cleaning the exterior of our many windows with Windex). We couldn't ask for better people to do business with. Our house looks GREAT! We highly recommend Cronin Painting. We would definitely hire them again. read more

We contacted Vinny Cronin last fall to bid on our place. Our home is in the Oakland Hills and has a steep slope in the rear of the home. This team did a great job and did so timely, with good communication and follow-up. Given the size and cost of the job, we appreciated Vinny and his team for keeping the process easy for us. Until the next paint job. read more

This contractor just called me "idiot" because I asked him not to go inside my apartment without authorization. DISRESPECTFUL...

Cronin Painting is great - good quality work at reasonable price done by a friendly team. They completed a relatively small job for us in San Francisco but Vinny makes it very easy to work with him. Would strongly recommend Cronin Painting to anyone. read more

Can't say enough about Cronin Painting. Vinny was quick to respond to our request and was able to schedule the job in a very small window of time. Alex performed the work and the quality was excellent. We have already recommended Cronin Painting to others and if you are reading this review no need to search any further! read more

Cronin Painting is wonderful. My first choice. Over the last 10 years, Vinny Cronin's crew has painted four different buildings for me, and in all cases the workmanship was great, the paint jobs are lasting well, and I am 100% satisfied. Even more important, the hardworking, polite and careful workers on the crew have been terrific -- I have been highly satisfied with their work on both income properties, and my personal residence. Thanks Vinny! read more
