Do not hire this company. The owner does not respond to text messages. Please review the photos below and you can see the horrible work they did on my house. His employees left a 15 pound weight on my nightstand and when I went to plug a fixture back in the 15 pound weight landed on my head and I was in the emergency room for 2 1/2 hours. They left my house an absolute mess and my patio looks so bad. I've been crying for two days over this horrible work. I now have to hire somebody else to come back in and fix their mistakes read more

I worked with Roman for the initial visit and estimate. I asked him about prior poor Yelp Reviews. Roman assured me that those workers no longer work for him. I had Lunar strip my existing (tract home looking) stair railings and balusters. They re-stained them a dark brown which now makes them look significantly richer and serves to complement the rest of my home decor. Alberto and another worker did the actual work. They were on-time, took care with my belongings, finished when promised, cleaned up exceptionally well with the completion of the work. Roman's communication and scheduling was effective and he/they worked well with my schedule. I highly recommend Lunar Painting and would gladly use them again. read more

They were very proficient on getting me an estimate and quick on signing a contract the night before. That is the last time I saw or talked to Ben, the owner. He told me he would be there the next morning and never showed. I called him twice and he never returned my calls. I gave him my review on his form, and apparently not interested in following up as the owner of the business. Very rare to not see the owner not follow up after a job. If you are interested in a company that will just get it painted, do as little prep work as possible and due to them not properly protecting the surface from paint spills, this is your company. They give a good price and get the job done on time, but are horrible at follow up, prep work and cleanup. I wouldn't recommend them to any friends or use them again for the reasons mentioned above. read more

Where do I start? Was supposed to start the job on a Tuesday. An hour after he was supposed to start, I called and texted. Ben said they'll be starting Wednesday. A day off of my job for nothing. This house is a two story place, 2700 square ft. Changing from off white to pale oak. Wednesday - 2 guys show up (late) and work for about six good hours. Despite having a detailed written contract, they didn't know what they were supposed to be doing. They started in several rooms with no rhyme or reason but left in the middle of painting some walls...like, literally, they'd paint half a wall and walk away for a day them forget where they left off (our new color was close to the old color) Thursday- Again, 1-2 guys, with them being called to other jobs halfway through the day. They promised to come back and work late. Didn't happen. Friday - Ben told one of his guys that there were four workers standing on my porch at 8Am. I was here and the gate notifies my of all visitors. No one showed up. About 10:45 am, two guys finally showed up. They promised they'd be done Friday on Thursday. They worked another good 5-6 hours and then bailed. They said they would be back later that evening. Didn't happen. I texted them and said they're not going to get this done by Sunday (flooring people coming for The upstairs on Monday) and that they better send a full crew tomorrow (Saturday) Saturday- Supposed have 5 people there at 8am. Texted and called them multiple times through the morning. Finally told them by text (all of their voice mail boxes were full, even at the office and no one was answering) that if they weren't here by noon, they'd be fired. Finally got them to show up around 1:30 and 5 guys worked until almost 8pm. Still, we were only 80% done. They were supposed to come back Sunday but were denied entry by our homeowners association (no work on Sundays) Come Monday, they still had two rooms to do and finish the garage. Ben came on this day to help wrap up. They were done about 4pm. Note: the contract said two coats. They did one. Their work was shoddy. Painted trim without masking, dabs on the ceiling and baseboard. Dropped and smeared paint in at least 50 spots (I've spent the day cleaning the spots off our hardwood floor) They didn't sweep after. In fact, they did not cleanup. They also didn't even bother to reinstall the light switch plates. They left a giant bag of trash in the living room. And no one did a walkthrough with us at the end of the day because the owner Ben, took off for another job midday. It's clear they're using sub-contractors. Their contract is worthless - it's all promises and no QC. His workers worked hard but the excuses made by Ben left them struggling. When Ben WAS here, he was riding his workers relentlessly. Their guys were pulled off of my job several times during their work to go work at other properties. This contractor came to us through HomeAdvisor. I'd sooner use CraigsList next time. In the end, I paid them the full amount just to get them out. read more

Worst experience ever! To date there has been no resolution and will need to take them to court to try and recoup some of our money paid to them. Correspondence with Lunar Painting: Karina, I literally just arrived at my home in Arizona. I spent from the time that Tim and the two workers left until 2:30am cleaning the mess that was left by the painters that are representing your company. I am far to tired at this point to go into detail regarding the shoddy job that we contracted your company to perform. Regarding the six total window sills, we requested Julio give us a total for those on three separate occasions to get an amended quote, this was never done. Julio gave some figure to my fiancee which Im not about to wake him to ask the amount. We never received an amended quote, he stated (Julio) that the company wasnt aware of the extra work which makes be beleive he was going to just pocket that extra cash. When Julio was trying to discuss this with Tim, Tim simply stated that the $4,926 would be the total due. So that's what was paid.  The work performed was not to the agreed upon contracted specs. Plain and simple. Two coats of paint were not applied and the time frame was not met. It's simple, do the math 12 gallons of paint were purchased, two full gallons plus others were left with us at the end of the job by the way.  400sf per gallon would be 4000sf this was for a 2,000sf home the amount of paint purchased would have ONLY covered two coats of paint on the ceilings.  Your workers lied, the paint purchase spells it out clearly, we had renters that were due to move in on the 15th hence the deadline. We were not only inconvenienced with the time wasted, the clean up was ridiculous, but your company has ripped us off theres no way in stating they didn't. This was explained in great detail to Tim and either he didn't grasp what was being spelled out to him or he simply doesn't care.  If this isn't rectified with your company ASAP, as stated to Tim we will be filing a suit against Lunar Paint, we will also be reporting this business practice to the contractors board, the better business bureau, as well as home advisor. No one should have to endure the frustration that we have nor be charged for a service that they did not receive. Your workers should be ashamed of the job that was done, as should you as they represent the Lunar Paint Co. brand name and your reputation.  If you would like to discuss this matter further then we can do so on Monday. But, if there is no plan in place from your company as to how to resolve this issue then we simply have nothing to say to one another and the courts can deal with this. Regards, Michelle Sileski Karina, Thank you for the delayed response. Please note that in no way shape or form will Lunar Paint be allowed to enter the property to try and resolve this matter. So in your discussions on how to rectify this, that needs to be left off the table. We gave Tim adequate time to address and correct this while the painters were there and he chose not to take action even when we provided the insight that the painters lied to both our faces and his.  The quality of work and time frame that was promised by your estimator Tim was what made us go with Lunar Paint, you failed on both ends. * Three painters were to be sent * Timeline of three days were not met * Nail holes not patched * Caulking of cracks on baseboards not not caulked. * Two coats of paint were not applied * Failure to clean up both daily and the end of job. These items were all addressed several times with both the painters and Tim on Friday yet to date there are still door frames in the home that have not been fully painted. Again, so please consider all of these factors prior to contacting us to discuss this resolution. I expect to be contacted prior to end of day tomorrow 8/22/18. Regards, Michelle Sileski Karina, Please note it has now been over a week since our discussions started regarding the work that Lunar Painting did at our home located at xx xx xx xxxxxx in San Clemente. To date there has been no resolution to the shoddy work that was performed. This is unacceptable and extremely unprofessional on your behalf.  There needs to be a resolution to this by the end of business on Monday 8/27/18. Sufficient time has been granted to yourself, Tim and Ben to have this matter corrected.  Regards, read more

We needed some interior painting done (3 rooms and a hall, and 3 window frames) and Lunar gave us a price quote ,and a time of 3 days. When they left 10 days later, they never even finished. They sanded down the doors in the hall putting no plastic down, paint dust and chips throughout the house. Also, they used the wrong paint. They promised to come back and fix things, but never showed. My husband had to go to court to get a refund. My opinion is save yourself some grief. Char D. read more

A few months back, my wife and I received a quote from this firm and told them we wanted them for the job. Because of the time it took to get board approvals through two HOAs, we were forced to push the work out. When we called back to let them know we were ready to move forward, we were told the quote had been increased because of price bumps in the paint. There had been no indication in the quote that there was an expiration date. After pushing back, I was told by a person I thought was the owner that he would honor the price. The week before the work was to begin, my wife had tried several times unsuccessfully to contact the company to discuss some final items. She was becoming increasingly frustrated in this lack of follow through so I told her I would make some calls. I called in the morning asking for a callback but then ended up having to call again to make contact. The woman that answered the phone knew who I was and made it obvious that the office had received the message. While going through the final details, I discussed using a credit card for payment - the quote indicated I would be assessed a percentage rate to cover the cost of the card - something I was fine with. My issue arose when I was told by the individual I was speaking with that he was going to take away a discount he had offered previously which brought him to a level that would be competitive with two other quotes I had. He explained the discount he was offering was because - if he received cash - he would not have to report taxes on the job. After bantering for several minutes with the person on the phone, I determined he would not be an individual I would feel comfortable working on one of my projects. I would recommend you give hard consideration before hiring this firm. read more

When we were researching painters and getting quotes, Lunar was the only one that provided a written-and very detailed-quote, which was very reassuring. The price was reasonable for what we were asking. We were originally quoted as needing 1 week notice to start the job and that the job would take 4-5 business days. Lunar was able to schedule us for the day after we accepted the quote, and they finished in 3 days. Very fast and efficient. The paint job itself was done very well, and a couple weeks after the job was finished the job held up well to the moving-in process and two kids. Bottom line, great work and great price, would definitely recommend. read more

Lunar Painting did a beautiful job. Great value. My house looks fantastic and the repair work was done perfectly. The estimate was right on and I didn't have to pay a penny more. EJ read more

We have hired Lunar Painting for two projects this year, both interior and exterior. They are professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. Victor is one of the best painters we have ever used and he really cares about the project and your house. We strongly recommend Lunar painting. read more

I recently got my garage floor epoxy done by Roman, he is really nice person and did a good job. He always arrives earlier than out appointment time, both for 1st time cost estimation and the day starting the work, which makes me feel that this company is trustful. Also, I heard of Lunar Painting from Sherwin Williams store, which is much better choice of painting contractors I think than randomly search on internet. I highly recommend this company. Thank you so much Lunar Painting! read more

Just finished our home in Mission Viejo What a great job they did. Got several bids they were not the highest or the lowest but certainly the best. From Ben (owner)Roman(estimator)to the paint crew Stephan and Vitalii. They very experienced, knowledgeable , were on time,worked clean, and put everything back in place! House looks brand new Thank you for a great job. The Davis family read more

Do not use this company. Ben is a great salesman but they do not do a good job. Send out unqualified sub- contractors to do the work. We had emptied our 1000 sq feet house so would be an easy job. Our 5-day interior paint job turned into a three week nightmare. Took the guys 3 days to paint just the ceilings. The rest of the work was sloppy & unprofessional. Suddenly Ben was unavailable and didn't answer or return our calls for several days. Excuses we heard from him and his office help were - his child in the hospital, he was out of town, his phone was broken, he didn't remember he said he'd come by and he "broke his goddamn foot", (his own words to us.) In the end a better crew came and cleaned up the sloppy work & we are about 70% satisfied. Beware! read more

Ben and his crew are true professionals and we could not have been happier with their work. Ben always answered our calls, texts, and emails immediately. More importantly he provided us with all of the necessary info and good suggestions. Due to his crew fast and excellent work, we were able to close finish the job early. I highly recommend Lunar Painting! Bravo. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Anna B. Your response is not only absurd, and over two years late, but it is riddled with grammatical errors, "WE DO NOT Contract OUT TO NO ONE." As your statement supports with double negatives, Lunar ABSOLUTELY hires subcontractors. The two guys (brothers) who showed up to do the job said that they did not work for Lunar and actually showed up wearing shirts from another paint company and changed in front of me into a Lunar shirt. Furthermore, you couldn't possibly have a record of the paint used because it was NOT purchased by Lunar. read more

Lunar set an appointment to give me an estimate. They never showed up nor did they call me back read more

Thank you for a job well done. We're very satisfied. Juan X 2 where very professional, punctual, knowledgeable and dedicated workers.

Lunar came out, provided the bid and was on the job the following week. They did a great job and were very neat and polite. Took 4 days to paint the outside trim, eaves and doors and one stucco wall. They were a little bit higher than what I have paid in the past, but the promtness was worth the little bit more. They also carry workers comp so that was important to us. read more

I needed somebody as soon as possible. I called lunar painting and said they could start the following week. Their bid was reasonable and Ismael did a great job. They were very polite and were done in 3 days. read more

I recently hired Lunar Painting for my exterior painting project. Roman came to my house and explained the process in detail of how they would attack my project. I received (4) other quotes. Lunar was not the cheapest, but I liked his presentation the best. The crew that he sent out was lead by Victor. They did an amazing job and delivered everything that was promised. I would use them again, no question read more

Had a small interior project done. A living room with a high ceiling and one colored accent wall. There were a couple communication issues and they had to come back out a second time to do some small fixes (done in 3 hours). But they addressed everything and showed up on time and were good people. Overall I'm very happy with the final product and everything was taken care of. read more

Hired these guys for a resedential home me and my wife are purchasing, from the start customer service was poor, we continued to use there services unfortunatly. They sub contracted the job to a crew who was very unhappy with them, my wife feels they took that out on our home. Uneven coats and several areas that were not preped correctly and left a very bad overall look. Did not pay attention to detail many small corners and areas splatterd with drops remaining. Overall we think if they treated the crew members better they would have done a better job. Overall employer misconduct was the issue read more

John N Roman provided a fair quote and Victor did everything we expected in a timely manner. We could not be more pleased. read more

The crew from Lunar arrived on time and got to work right away. I was concerned when only 1 person showed the next day but then 3 painters came afterwards and work was done within their 5-6 day estimate. They went out of their way to finish 2 bathroom doors after we saw how good the new paint looked. 1 minor drip on a tile floor was easily cleaned. We give our high recommendation for these guys. read more

Had Lunar paint the exterior of my home. Juan and his crew did an outstanding job. Even with a full day of high wind they still completed the job right on time. Very professional throughout and cleaned up after. I would use them again and would highly recommend Lunar Painting read more

Lunar Painting just finished with painting the exterior of my 3600sqft house which I purchased a year ago. The house is 15yr old and never been painted so it needed a little extra care and attention which I pointed out to Roman when he gave me the quote. Their price was fair based on 4 other quotes I got - middle of the road, not the cheapest and not the most expensive. I accepted Roman's proposal on the basis I get the best crew to do this work - Roman confirmed it will be his best. Victor was the lead painter and was very easy to work with. He was pretty detail oriented and every spot I pointed out (yes I had to do that a lot) was taken care of to my satisfaction. Yes, I was being picky because this house needed a quality paint job after so many years of neglect. There are a few specific points I want to note on why 4 not 5 stars: 1) They use Sherwin Williams paint which was perfect for me as that is what the HOA's color scheme is from - but unfortunately there was still a mix up where they painted my entire house with the wrong color due to them misreading the color scheme number on the print out from the HOA. The wrong color was very close but not what was approved by the HOA so Victor simply repainted it with the correct color so now I have three coats of paint on my house rather than 2. Victor did ask me to help cover some of the extra cost of the paint but I explained that was not my error but I end up giving him a big tip which basically covered it anyways. Although Victor handled it, the fact I left the owner of Lunar a message, he couldnt find it in his time to actually call or come by himself. I spoke with Roman, sales/estimator, and he assured me that it would be handled by Victor, but again no follow up to see if it all turned out properly or not. 2) To paint my house, they took 6 days (Monday thru Saturday)! Yes, 6 days! Lesson learned from me is to get it in writing how many days they need to paint my house. The main reason they took so long was not due to extensive prep, but because they were short handed and only had 1 junior level young guy working on my house on Tuesday and Wednesday - then made scramble on Thurs and Friday with a team of 5 people to "catch up" before the rain was expected on Saturday. Thankfully the rain did not come on Saturday as Victor and 1 other painter spent the entire day touching things up and finishing. I just think 6 days to paint a 3600sqft house is excessive since my last house 2 years ago was painted in 3 days because they had enough people working on it. I understand they get busy - but no explanation from the so-called "Project Manager/Estimator" named Roman - and no follow up on how things are going. So lessons learned: * Get it in writing how many people will do the job and how many days they need. Ideally get credit if they take longer. * While I feel Victor was a detailed painter and a "A rated painter", I dont feel like the A-Team from Lunar as they seemed very stretched thin on painting crews. I was happy to get 5 painters for 2 days - just wish they did that to start with and knocked this out in 3 days so they and I could move on with our lives. Overall, I am happy with my exterior paint job as the house looks fantastic and I credit this to Victor's attention to detail and not being offended/defensive when I kept pointing out touch up areas. I recommend Lunar Painting and will use them again - but will use my lessons learned. read more

Didn't have an issue with doing a small project ( Window Shutter Painting) at fair price.

A little rocky to start. The original crew lead got sick and they needed to substitute a new crew. However, "how do we make it right?" was their attitude throughout the job. Strong finish and a very satisfied customer. Highly recommend. read more

Lunar recently painted our house. They also repaired the stucco. They were polite, professional and courteous. They did great work, and they finished when they said they would. We are very pleased with their work read more

Selling my 2500 s.f. property in Lake Forest so I decided to paint interior and exterior. I had couple estimators come out, and really liked Tim from Lunar, who gave me a good price and addressed all of my concerns, so I scheduled the starting date for the project. Everything was completed one day before the scheduled finishing date. Happy customer, recommend Lunar to everyone! read more

Excellent price, quality and great workers with attention to detail. I am really happy with their work - didn't see any issues when they were done. read more

Oh THANK You Lunar painting for the beautiful Job you just completed. I had approximately 3,300 square feet of exterior paint performed this week and we could not be happier. Want to say a huge thank you Juan, Gerardo and Juan who went above and beyond to make my house look so beautiful! They were so professional I would recommend them for any of your painting needs. read more

A friend referred me to Lunar Painting and I am so glad he did! Lunar Painting painted the entire inside of my home and it turned out beautiful. It was an absolute pleasure working with Ben and his staff who were always very professional and helpful. I have never experienced a painter with such a positive work ethic and desire to do his best no matter how long it took. Lunar Painting is a quality minded company that wants their customers happy and they have accomplished that goal with me. It's nice to know you can still find quality, integrity and competitive pricing. read more

Crew was very professional and showed up on time. They were efficient and worked hard. Unfortunately, the end result was as follows: Pressure washing - They didn't cover anything. Paint chips were everywhere and even in my air conditioning unit. I'm still sweeping and shop vacuuming huge piles of them two weeks later. They returned to clean-up, but I'm still finding myself cleaning. They kept saying my lawn mower should pick it up. Photos attached. Patio Cover - They sprayed two coats of paint, but entire sections were missed. Some sections were very very lightly coated. They had to come back out for two hours to re-roll. I appreciated that they came back out but VERY disappointed that I had to go up on roof, inspect myself to get them to come out to resolve. What if I hadn't? Overspray got all over our trash cans, bushes, bbq cover, outdoor storage shed and roof. Photos attached. The shingles on the roof can't be cleaned -- power washing will remove granules and damage them, so we're stuck living with that. Stucco - Spots had to be re-repaired after I noticed that areas were missed. I had to paint the stucco myself since they were quick and missed painting sections. Front door - Front door looked good and they were flexible as we decided colors. OTHER - I asked for Dunn Edwards. They used high quality paint on front door (Evershield) use my own supplied paint for stucco and then used Spartashield for the patio cover. Normally the painters I use ask me what type of paint. I would have preferred Everyshield for the patio cover, but Spartashield is still decent. Overall, they were nice and punctual (things many contractors lack), but the quality of the work was average / below average because of the issues I described. All these painting companies sub everything out. They may have a general group of subs they use that are preferred, but in the end, it's really luck of the draw with who you get. They're all hurrying to move from one job to the next as fast as they can, so quality sometimes suffers as a result. read more
