We were in the market to repaint our hundred-year-old Craftsman home, and to be honest, we were…read moreextremely cautious. About ten years ago, we had a very poor experience with a painter who used improper preparation materials and techniques that were not suitable for a home of this age and type of wood siding. We ended up stopping the project midway and settling for a basic paint job from someone else just to move on. This time, we wanted our home properly repaired and thoughtfully restored. After watching a neighbor's home be beautifully prepped and painted by Level Five Painting, we were genuinely impressed and decided to reach out. The owner, Juan, came out for a walk-through and quote. He was gracious, knowledgeable, and patient with all of our questions. We immediately felt we could trust him and didn't feel the need to get other quotes. Our home was assigned to the project manager, Ivan, along with Juan and Daniel, who handled the preparation and painting. They spent about three weeks -- Monday through Saturday; meticulously sanding, repairing, priming, and painting. We were blown away by Juan and Daniel's work ethic. They worked incredibly hard, stayed focused, and treated our home and property with the utmost respect. Every day, they left the worksite clean, organized, and well cared for. Ivan was wonderful to work with as he was responsive, communicative, and present throughout the project. He checked in frequently, answered our questions quickly, and made sure everything stayed on track. What truly set this team apart was their deep knowledge of their craft and the pride they take in their work. Their level of professionalism, skill, and work ethic is something that, sadly, feels increasingly rare these days. It was refreshing to work with a team that genuinely cares about doing things the right way. The final result exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only did they revive our Craftsman home, but they also corrected many of the issues left behind from prior poor workmanship. Our home now looks refreshed, cohesive, and truly ready for its next chapter. Because of the quality of their work and the trust they earned, we've already booked Level Five Painting for our next project -- preparing and staining the interior wood trim throughout our home. We highly, highly recommend Level Five Painting.

Those are the basics...but the stunning part was the dramatic change that the house (ranch-style) made from blaaahhhish pink to stunning green on green. With a purple door, brown eaves and cream window sashes. All chosen by Michael who *does* know his colors! At the time, we were the only green house in the neighborhood. Now every other house is a similar color. Imitation being (I've heard) a form of flattery. Next time we paint...I'm asking Michael to do it in orangy-mango. With purple trim. And a mural by the*Sniff* brothers on the southside of the house by the street. We'll see *who* copies who!!! Note to readers: *Sniff* is the team of muralists who painted the wall at the Albany Bulb. You can see some of their art at Eclectix Gallery reviewed by me on Yelp about a year ago.

When I received multiple bids for the job, I was happy to find that his pricing was fair and he stuck to it, which meant there were no surprises or negotiation involved. Enrique's dedication to his work was apparent from the beginning, and he made sure that we were happy with the final outcome. He would check in with us daily to ensure we were satisfied with the progress and asked for our input on any decisions that needed to be made. His suggestions were great, and he even gave us advice on which trim pieces would look best in the accent color and which ones would not. The quality of the work was outstanding, and Enrique made sure to paint even the little areas behind the facade that we would never have seen. The job was completed thoroughly, and the paint job was flawless. Enrique and his partner were incredibly tidy and left no mess behind after each day of work. I highly recommend Enrique and his company, Prado Pro. He exceeded all of our expectations, and we are just so happy with the job. It can be tough to find a professional, committed, and skilled contractor, so you're lucky to have found him. Your search for an exceptional painter can end here!
