I do not know paint, so I walked in to such a positive environment. Several regular customers in talking and enjoying themselves. The salesman walked right over and pointed me to what I needed. He also gave me recommendations and made me feel at ease. Loves my experience here. read more

Benjamin Moore is this designers choice of top grade paint with a wide variety of base and color options.

Super helpful and courteous staff. Knowledgeable about their products. On my second trip in there, they were busy, but one of the workers acknowledged I was waiting and told me they would be right with me. That hardly EVER happens in most retail business anymore. I will definitely be happy to do more business with them. read more

The service here is outstanding! I needed to match some paint colors for some touch up painting at our home. The young man at the counter, Angel, was very patient and helped me match three different colors of paint that work perfectly. Very thankful for their help and expertise. read more

I don't usually write Yelp reviews but my experience with these guys was AWFUL. I visited the North Dutton Ave/W. College store near my house. I've gone there for years but it's been a while since I've been in. I'm having my house painted and my contractor said to go there for paint chips/samples. I went there FOUR times -- never once did anyone say "hello" or "Need some help?" or "We'll be with you in a minute." I even stood at the counter for several minutes on my first visit. It was like I was invisible. I helped myself to paint chips and on the last visit actually asked a question of the young man at the counter (who had been busy on his cell phone before) to inquire about finishes on paint relative to the chips: "This is not paint" was his snotty answer. Bottom line -- Poor Customer Service at Sonoma Paint Center. Don't waste your time. I ended up going to a store in Petaluma (miles from my home) and not only got great service but the information provided was most helpful. SPC could have saved me the trip and the time had they been a little helpful. I'll never go there again and advise other homeowners to avoid them. read more

Came to this store and heard two white heavy set men who appeared to be owners or management making racist comments to their Hispanic workers saying things about them "using their brown privileges" and laughing at them. Also zero covid protocols in place, no masks whatsoever. I will be reporting to the health department and shame on these men for treating their employees that way. If they're bold enough to do it in front of customers I can only imagine what they say when no one is around. Don't support bigots, take your business elsewhere. Hope their wonderful employees find a better employer. read more

Sonoma Paint Center in Santa Rosa is one of a number of Benjamin Moore Paint dealers in Sonoma County. I have used Benjamin Moore interior and exterior paints and products for decades. Their Aura line of paint is simply The Best, bar none. I have previously bought Benjamin Moore paint in quantity from both Sandy's Paint in Sebastopol and Hawley's Paint Store in Santa Rosa. Both stores have treated me well and offered me (when I asked) painter's discounts in the past. I also experimented with Kelly-Moore interior paints and Dunn Edwards interior/exterior paints as well. Let's just say that nothing comes close to the results that I've experienced with Aura from Benjamin Moore. It wasn't until almost four years ago when I began a house remodel, total restoration, and re-paint of my entire house and fencing, that my painter recommended Sonoma Paint Center in Santa Rosa. I was pleased with the "color design" area in the corner of the building, overall variety of products, and store itself. I have been treated well by David, Lee, and other staff who work there. What sets this store, Sonoma Paint Center, apart from all others that I have encountered is the actions of its owner, John Barnes. When the exterior of my home was painted over three years ago, I paid for a couple dozen gallons of exterior Aura low-lustre that my painter picked up for me. I had asked for a standard pre-mixed color simply labeled "White 01". Sonoma Paint Center was out of that pre-mixed paint that day, so they supplied us instead with the "Base" paint. This is a white color with NO added pigment/binders so it is not technically the "White 01" color. My whole house was painted with this other white color. It didn't look bad . . . in fact it was pretty nice. The problems started about two years later when I noticed unexpected sun damage and fading. I mentioned this to John Barnes relatively recently and he was not surprised when I pointed out it was with paint that did not have the pigment, binder, and additives mixed into the base paint. In fact, John remembered clearly the day that one of his employees had sold that large quantity of paint to my painter and scolded him for selling "base-only" paint! He told all his employees that when a pre-mixed color is not in stock, they could simply "make some" by adding the formula to the base. I guess that employee wasn't thinking that day. So, fast forward to recently, when I came in for other paint and telling John my story . . . he made this offer to me: He asked how many gallons I needed for a re-paint. I told him and he said to me that he would only charge me for half of them. On top of that, the ones he would charge me for he would give me the contractor's discount too! I was floored by his generosity. I took John up on his offer quite happily. I also took the opportunity to make some slight adjustments in my color selection and changed from low-lustre to all semi-gloss. I am still painting my house, but the parts that are complete with the new paint are just beautiful! I could not be any happier with the results. I asked John why he was being THAT generous with me, he replied, "because it's the right thing to do." There are good people in the world . . . they are all around us. All you need to do is open your heart and they will appear right in front of you. Thank you, Sonoma Paint Center . . . Thank you, John Barnes! You have a customer for life. Review 0086 read more

Sonoma Paint Center - Paint Stores Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

My painter sent me to this business to purchase the paint he needed for the project. They refused to extend the painters discount unless they spoke to him. I returned in a few hours and they still would not extend my painters discount because they did not speed directly to him. To me their customer service was nonexistent. They did not offer even a nominal discount. They just did not seem interested in customer service. Perhaps because I was not a contractor. As I left the sales guy says smugly have a nice day. I will never return. There are plenty of excellent options. read more

I've been painted for over 25 years and have never been treated so poor. After asking for a simple custom color, John at this location became quickly hostel. He did not understand so resorted to calling foul names and at one point wanted to fight. Steer clear of this shallow can of bitter paint and find a professional outlet for your needs. I forgive John but will never return for this unwarranted abuse. read more
