Exceptional experience with Easterbrook Painting. After meeting Jim for the first time, when he came to prepare a bid, I was very impressed with his breadth of knowledge about stain products and what was most appropriate for my home. As I continued to speak with him I was impressed with how he ran his business, and how very similar it was with how I ran my own business, even down to how he managed his labor force. I felt that I ran my own operation very well and was very successful. I had no doubt that I didn't need to even talk to another contractor. Jim's was the only bid I obtained, as I was certain that I had called the right contractor Months later, when the work was done, every expectation was not only met, but exceeded. My home not only looks teriffic, but the entire process was outstanding: the crews were knowledgeable and well trained, all time on my property was done in a careful and completely safe manner, no mistakes, spills, stain where it shouldn't be, and clean up was so complete that it was like no one was even here. Every member of the crews worked together in a manner that was obvious that they all liked each other, important in having a job well done. Prior to starting I was confused as to the start date and I wasn't ready for them to start. Jim was very gracious and postponed for a week so I could get my act together. I intend to have Easterbrook Painting maintain the exterior of my home for as long as I own it. And if I ever paint the interior I will absolutely have Jim take care of it read more

I can't say enough about Jim Easterbrook, and his team (including Ivan Ruiz). They just wrapped up an outstanding exterior stain job at our house in Lake Tahoe. Their work was on budget (which was very reasonable), on time and looked fantastic. They communicated with me during the entire job and did some other work at my house while they were there. I have used Jim's firm in the past and they saved one time with some interior paint and drywall work that had to be done within a day! They followed up yesterday to do some final touch ups inside and outside the house despite being incredibly busy with their summer stain schedule. They even painted my garbage shed steel doors back to their original black paint color and I had forgotten to request that! Looks great. I highly recommend Easterbrook Painting for any exterior stain or painting work. read more

We have now used Easterbrook Painting 3 times. Can't say enough great things about Jim and his crew. They have stained our cabin's exterior 2 times. Each time the job was done on time and the quality of work was outstanding. Jim also painted the cabin's interior and refurbished all of the wood surfaces (cabinets, doors, railing, molding, trim). The interior work was also excellent. Jim is very easy to work with and his pricing is competitive. We will be working with Jim again and highly recommend him to our friends and family. read more

Jim is one of those RARE FINDS up here in the Tahoe region- he is awesome at his work and incredibly conscientious and respectful. In other words, a consummate customer-service oriented businessman. We were so fortunate to find Jim years ago from his neighbors next door & wouldn't use anyone else for staining our home. Plus, through Jim, we have been connected to other top- notch service businesses up here in Tahoe. As second home owners, this kind of resource is invaluable. Bravo & thank you, Jim. read more

Jim and his crew just completed a lot of work for us ... both inside and outside ... and we couldn't be happier. We repainted just about every surface inside the house. On the outside, we had a very neglected house that needed lots of prep work before application of the new stain and paint. The crew's work was very high quality: everything looks gorgeous, all the edges are cut nicely, there are no roller or brush marks, no drips, no drops, no splatters. We couldn't be happier with the end result ... and have already started receiving compliments from our neighbors. Jim was really easy to work with. He was very informed about the options we had, and he provided all of the information and opinions we needed to make the decisions we needed to make. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a painter in the Truckee / Tahoe area. read more

Jim and his crew painted our cabin in Cedar Flat and at the same time cleaned and stained the decks. All of the work was meticulous and very well done, which we especially appreciated given that we never met Jim ahead of time and were not up in Tahoe to assess the progress. I would not hesitate to recommend Easterbrook painting. read more

I am so happy with Jim Easterbrook and his crew! We just purchased a condo in a 4 unit complex and got 4 bids for this large job. Jim's bid was very fair and what made our decision very easy is the time he took to explain what he thought would work best for our complex. The wood was very weathered and neglected, he took the time to explain the different options that we had. Once we contracted with him, he set a date and his crew was there at 7:30 am on that day. Many of us expect that and so often it just does not happen. Jim's crew was here every morning on time and worked hard, they were respectful and cleaned up after themselves every evening before leaving. This was a big job, staining the house, painting the trim, garage doors, concrete, metal rails and the bear boxes. It's beautiful and all the owners are beyond happy with the finished product. Jim will be doing all of our staining work, no need to do the bidding process again! read more

Jim Easterbrook and his crew were referred to me by a friend who knew that I had some tricky sanding/staining restoration work to be done on doors and cabinets in a client's home in Truckee. Jim's crew did a stellar job at fixing a ton of pet scratches/gouges on some alder doors and trim; they also went above and beyond to do some touch-up work on areas that were not included in the quote and did so at no extra charge. In addition to the crew being quick in clean, Jim was always very prompt, responsive and easy to reach, which in my years of experience as a Realtor and property manager is sadly quite rare among tradesmen. As for pricing, I was pleasantly surprised that such quality work and service were performed at a very fair rate. I will be calling him again! read more

After speaking with several painting companies in North Lake Tahoe I selected Mr. Easterbrook to paint a cabin in Kings Beach built in 1955 by my father. A difficult job because it had not been professionally painted in over 20 years and of course I was concerned that they would meet my deceased Dad's standards were he still alive. The workers did a fantastic job, even staining my fence, painting a chair my father had built, all very responsibly. They were on time each day, prepped the cabin very well and were very respectful and careful of my father's hard work. They cleaned up each day, finished the work before estimated and were lovely young fellows to have around. The end result was very pleasing! My cabin looked so much better and feels ready to face many more winters. They even came in $1000 under the quote I had been given. I would refer any friends to Mr. Easrerbrook read more

Jim and his crew did an excellent job staining our garage after a name sign was removed that had been there for 20 years. The job equalized the tones so it isn't apparent that a sign had been there. Jim explains all aspects of the job, is very communicative, and texts exactly what will be done and when. His crew is courteous and careful. His price is very fair and competitive. read more

Wow! Great job on our home in Truckee! The house looks great--what really made their work stand out were the details. As part of the job the concrete foundation and footings were painted, bear box repainted, and steel beam connectors repainted. They even repainted our crummy old wood house numbers, which look like new. We're just really pleased! Highly recommended! read more

Jim and crew stained the outside of our Tahoe Donner home August 2013 and less than a year later much of the deck and some of the house were very thirsty. After three phone calls, Jim assured me his treatment was working from the inside out and the thirsty look was normal. He said he'd take care of it but for an additional fee. Not satisfied with his answer, I reminded him of his one year warranty, written on our original contract. He rescheduled twice and finally in late October came to apply stain to the thirsty areas. Unfortunately, I had to cancel because the water was off to our house, my husband had just died, and was basically done dealing with Jim and his excuses. The entire time during this ordeal, Jim knew my husband was ill and in the hospital. In 2010, Kelly Brother's had applied our stain. Yes, they were slightly more expensive, but effective. read more
