I agreed to go with Stubbins on Friday. By Monday, Mike A had sent a team to color match the paint needed, and by COB, had completed the project. The front of my house now looks gorgeous!

Mike and his crew did an outstanding job on my stucco and trim. From the initial estimate, Mike was honest and straightforward--no upselling, no exaggeration, just a clear and fair assessment of the work needed. That kind of integrity is rare in my experience. The quote he provided was more than reasonable, but what truly stood out was the exceptional quality of the workmanship. I'm usually able to spot at least a few flaws in any project, but with Mike's crew, there were none. Every detail was handled with precision. On top of that, his team showed genuine respect for my property, working with care and courtesy throughout. I couldn't be more impressed. Mike is definitely someone I'll be calling again when it's time to tackle the interior of my home. read more

I hesitate to even write this because I feel bad leaving a bad review, but my overall experience…read morewas really bad and yelp was what helped move me forward in choosing them to paint my home. Customer service-wise they were great. Communicative, showed up, etc. The painting? Not so much. I chose them after a recommendation from someone in a facebook group, seeing all 5 stars on yelp, and during the initial walk-through for the quote he seemed very focused on being meticulous. We are also very meticulous, so we were happy to find someone on the same wavelength. The quote was very expensive (about 9k for 2 story 2000 sqft) but he said he'd throw in painting the cabinets (and the baseboard stuff I will mention more below) but that it wouldn't be cheaper without the cabinets. I figured since cabinets are usually pretty expensive to get done well that it would be worth it to have them done. Much stuff happens without event. We weren't yet moved into the home at the time, so the house was empty. We paid him and went for the walk-through to check everything out (by ourselves). He told us if we see spots that need touch up we can stick some painters tape and they will come back for touch ups. So we are looking through our house and there is so much overspray on things like doorknobs, wood stairs, cabinet hardware, etc. Lines on things like baseboards and at windows were rarely clean. Many areas had painters tape still stuck on that was painted over so if you pulled it off you'd pull off tape. Drops of paint on the floor. Hardware painted over rather than removed (like in apartments where they just keep piling on the paint!). Etc. The house was also left a mess. Paint dust everywhere. My husband was concerned he wouldn't even come back because we already paid him. He did come back. Unfortunately, even after coming back the issues were not addressed. This time, we asked him to do a walk through with us so we could point things out. Again, he came back. He did try to do things like clean overspray, but he started using paint thinner we asked him not to use (our young children were in the house) and asked me to look at spots he did and they still had spray on them. At that point, we just cut our losses and asked him to leave and decided we'd take care of whatever rather than asking them to do stuff that wasn't going to happen. The reason I chose not to paint my house myself is because I expected a professional would do a better job. This was not hitting the mark at all. I suspect during prep they didn't really clean anything prior to painting. For example, there was hair painted into the wall. They wanted to cut time and costs and also sprayed places they shouldn't or less carefully than they should (I don't know anything about paint spraying, other than overspray shouldn't be everywhere, so something was done incorrectly). Currently, 6-7 months later, in many places in the home there are cracks developing in the paint either due to poor prep or too thick of an application. It's just sad because we paid so much for a paint job we thought would be super professional and ended up with something that doesn't look great and will probably cost a lot more to make look nice by painters next time. If it ever even can. He seemed more focused on the "extras" he wanted to do. Did we appreciate he randomly put baseboards in our closets that didn't have any? Sure (although he ran out of baseboard and left some undone and we were like "well, we'd rather just not have any than half done." he did add more after we mentioned it). Did we appreciate he re did the corners of baseboards on rounded doorways where they were very off? Yes. Did we appreciate he changed a section of hallways that had a different type of baseboard to the same? Yes. But was it worth have a horrible paint job? No. Photos are just a small sampling for examples. Am i ridiculously meticulous? Absolutely. But I do believe this goes beyond what an average person would feel satisfied with, especially paying on the higher end.

We handled almost everything online -- I simply sent photos of the areas that needed work, discussed the project details, and received a clear, all-inclusive estimate upfront. I had some leftover paint from a previous project, so I was able to provide them with the exact color information ahead of time. They purchased everything in advance, which made the process even smoother and eliminated any surprises with pricing. The work itself was excellent. I had recently replaced my kitchen cabinets, and several sections of the walls had been damaged and needed retexturing. They repaired and retextured those areas beautifully before painting both the walls and ceiling. Everything blended perfectly when the job was finished. They showed up right on time on a Saturday, which I really appreciated because I didn't have to take time off work. Before starting, they carefully laid down and hung drop cloths to protect everything in the kitchen, and they were extremely thorough about cleaning up afterward. The entire project was completed in a very reasonable amount of time, and the finished result looks fantastic. Another thing that stood out to me is that they are a true local company with their own employees. I've had frustrating experiences in the past where companies acted more like middlemen and subcontracted the work out to random handymen. It was refreshing to work with a company that has its own team because you can tell they have much better oversight, communication, and quality control throughout the entire process. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the results and would absolutely hire them again for future projects.
