The folks at Tera did an absolutely amazing job on my house's exterior. It was a complicated job using 5 colors and I couldn't be more pleased. The prep, the attention to detail, and the finish are just great. I also had some changes mid-job that they accommodated without charging more. Great communication from the office and from the staff on site. Highly recommend. read more

Ok after a couple years the stairs boards started coming off especially at the edges... another contractor doing some unrelated work told me they were not attached properly, they used some sort of flimsy staples. I was assuming it's normal for composite decking. Well it's not... I was able to pull off several boards by hand with barely any effort. I bought a box of proper screws to fix it. There was also a bunch of broken wood from the old stairs and enough screws to build another porch under there apparently. So I guess 5 stars for painting, 3 for the porch. read more

The entire team at Tera were great to work with from the initial bid, through the planning and execution of my exterior home painting. Mark met with me and walked the property to discuss options. The bid was professionally documented and included options so that I could make some informed decisions to include my house, a separate studio, and a shed. The job included painting siding of two different types (vinyl and wood) in two different colors, trim, 4 doors, varnished soffits and stained porch decking. As we got closer to the time, I was provided information to help select paint colors, and explanation of their approaches for managing the assignment through weather variables. We settled on a week in May and when the weather didn't fully cooperate they didn't rush, but took the time to get things right. The prep work showed attention to detail, and they were careful to protect surroundings from overspray. When we discovered some wood that needed repair during the painting, they tackled it professionally. When I asked for suggestions for a small unfinished area in the soffit, they adjusted and accommodated, with a proposal, and then completed the adjustment skillfully. Chloe kept me apprised of progress while I traveled. Arturo and the team of painters worked skillfully and their experience showed. We did a final walk through and addressed a few minor touch ups I pointed out. Several days later, they came back to add traction tape on my front porch steps and drop off the touch up paint nearly labeled with colors on the paint can lids. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. A big thank you to Tera Painting for the professional and skillful work they did, the attention to detail, and the care they took in communicating and responding to me during the entire process. I highly recommend them and will use them again! read more

Cannot recommend Terra painting enough. We had walls, ceilings, kitchen cabinets, and bathroom cabinets painted. The whole team was amazing, especially Chloe and Luis. They worked carefully, quickly, and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the job. And we are! It feels like we have a whole new house! read more

Tera Painting with Juan and his crew did precise and polished work painting our condo. We are very pleased with the results. The cabinets were stained wood which they painted to look like new. All the nicks on the walls and doors are repaired. We highly recommend Tera Painting. read more

The crew from Tera Painting were among the best I've ever used. From the initial meeting to discuss the project and get a bid, to the timing of the work itself, and most of all, the final results. All were excellent. I'm rather picky when it comes to having work done on my home, and Tera was able to satisfy me with the quality of their work in refinishing the exterior wood doors on my house. Special shout-outs to Matt, Evan and of course Fabian! read more

Great customer service. Easy from beginning to end. Had a tight window to get my condo painted and Tera and their team made it happen.

Tera Painting did a wonderful job painting our house. In addition, our interaction with the team, both managers and workers, was impeccable. It was a pleasure to have such hard-working professionals involved in the project. We changed our mind regarding color after the project started and they addressed the change calmly and quickly, the mark of an outfit that values good customer service. Special shout outs to Carlos, Evan and Hector for their good communication skills and obvious expertise. read more

I have used Tera Painting for multiple projects: drywall repair after water damage, repainting old cabinets, regular wall painting and fixing up a rental property. I had one issue with the cabinets where the painters did not paint the side of one of my cabinets, but it was eventually resolved. They have wonderful communication, always start and finish on time, and the are detail oriented across the board (estimators, project managers, and painters). In my experience, they leave my walls in a better state than they find them in - handling calking, repairs, and any necessary touch ups. I really appreciate when painters encounter something not covered in the work plan, they ask and verify vs. ignoring it or hitting me with a surprise charge for something I did not want. The are on the pricier side (but not prohibitively), but I feel like for the quality and communication it is worth it. I ventured away from them once after the cabinet situation and semi-regretted it. The other company started out cheaper, but made a few mistakes (that they eventually fixed but not awesome), missed some wall coverage in the bid (which wasn't obvious reading the bid), and the work was overall lower quality and did not look as professional as I would have liked (dark spots on lighter painted walls, some holes not patched, no calking on millwork, didn't fully remove some outlets, didn't paint the raw edges of the quarter round, etc). read more

Tera Painting delivered above our expectations on our cabinet refinishing project! They are a fantastic value for the services provided and quality of work. The team is prompt to respond to questions, provided clear and upfront bid and respected our scheduling requests. When their team was onsite, they were respectful and communicated great with us so we stayed informed on timelines. 100% will be booking them for our next reno! read more

The entire team at Tera was amazing! They had the most completive bid by far, and at every step of the process they were fast to respond and very helpful. We were worried about time frame of painting while moving our family but they put us at ease and completed our whole house under the time frame quoted. the house looks so good now and the quality of the painting job is top notch. We recommend Tera and will be returning with any other painting needs. read more

We had our entire kitchen painted - walls, ceiling, doors, cabinets - by Tera Painting. It was a great experience from getting the quote to finishing the job. We're extremely happy that we decided to go with them. We also got a quote from another local company, but Tera's quote came in much lower. Matt (owner) and Mark (painter) were great all around. They did excellent work. Mark had great attention to detail at all steps of the painting process. We had built our cabinetry ourselves, and Mark definitely went the extra mile to make sure it was perfect, with the bit of extra work that came with the home-made cabinets. Mark was also a fun and interesting guy to talk to throughout the job. They allowed us to help (removing doors, installing hardware, etc) to lower the price. Additionally, they were happy to come back after everything was installed to do touch-ups and make sure it was perfect. We're very happy we went with Tera painting for the quality we received! read more

Matt responded promptly to my Yelp request for kitchen cabinet painting. He gave me an initial quote from pictures that I provided to him. He confirmed the quote in person within 24 hours.

His work was clean and not dusty at all. Minimal smell. He arrived at 7:00 am everyday and worked all day. He finished in 5 days. We are very happy with the results and Have already started referring Matt to our friends, family, and neighborhood. read more

Tera Painting recently completed a major exterior painting, staining, and carpentry project for our 39 unit condominium complex. They were exceptional throughout the process with communication, attention to detail, reliability, bid transparency, and quality of the work. Matt, Mark, Evan, and Mauricio were knowledgeable, honest, good natured, organized, and professional often responding to questions and requests almost immediately. They patiently accommodated many change orders on short notice and met on site for several walk throughs to make sure we were satisfied and taken good care of. The crew members were highly skilled, polite and tidy. Everything looks beautifully updated and protected. Our HOA is thrilled with the results of this project and can not recommend this company highly enough read more

Matt (the owner) is incredible. He made a special visit on a weekend to give me an estimate. He gave clear and honest feedback regarding what my options were for repainting my house and rebuilding my porch. He laid out the costs for all the options I had in mind, he gave his experienced opinion regarding what things costed more (but weren't really necessary) and what might seem pricey up front but would ultimately serve to benefit our home long term. He was very transparent, honest, professional and most importantly - no BS. He and his team arrived everyday, were very professional, kind, and courteous. To say they were exceptional would be an understatement. Matt and his team listened to every concern and were meticulous with their attention to detail. Overall, if you're thinking of getting your house painted and updated...do not look any further. Reach out to Matt and I promise he will take great care of you. read more

Tera Painting did a very nice job repainting our home. Tera was easy to schedule and coordinate with and their PM's were always available/got back to me quickly when needed. I was a little hesitant to work with a shop that subs out this work, but it actually made things more efficient and easier. The house looks great and definitely makes us a lot happier to walk up to now that paint isn't bubbling, flaking, and peeling off of every wall. We appreciate the work from Matt, Mark, Evan, the crew leads, and the crew. read more

We contracted with Tera Painting for a townhome in Maple Valley. They were great from start to finish. Matt was very helpful in getting us a quote and fitting us in his schedule. He was kind and patient and communicated very well. Carlos walked me through the job at the end, they did a stunning job. Covered dark paint beautifully, not a single thing could be found wrong, no overspray, no drips, truly beautiful work read more

Boy oh boy did Matt ever give me attitude! His bid was way out of line anyway, thousands more than 2 competitors! Just nope.

We hired Tera painting to paint our kitchen cabinets. I can't even begin to say how happy we are with the final results. The before and after pictures I've included really do speak for themselves. However there are a few additional details that the Tera Painting team did that are worth mentioning. 1. Color Matching: We knew that we wanted to have the cabinets White, but I didn't know what white we wanted. Matt took a piece of our existing white crown molding and I had it professionally matched so that our cabinets would look seamless with the rest of the house. 2. Quality of Service: We actually ended up being out of town when Matt's team did the painting. I was able to leave a key for his staff so they could come and go as they needed. I never had any issues or concerns about the team. They left my house in pristine condition and we came home to a glorious new kitchen. 3. Price: We received several quotes and Tara Painting was by far the best price for the quality they were able to provide given the confines of our space and our needs. 4. End Result: The cabinets are truly outstanding! You cannot tell this wasn't the original color. Including some of the incredibly detailed crown molding I have which has been perfectly filled in with no gaps. When I did have a concern Matt responded quickly and came back out to the site to check and make sure everything was up to his standard. 5. Communitarian: Matt was incredibly quick to respond with all of my questions. I don't mind saying that I seemed to have a question around every corner our email chain may have been 70 emails deep! He never seemed overly annoyed or bothered by me! +10 points!! If you're looking to have interior painting done I cannot recommend this team enough. They were even kind enough to work with my property management company which I'm sure was a pain, but they seem to make the best of it. read more

After 8 years of living in a townhouse, we made the bold move to take everything off the wall and move all the furniture for a complete interior paint job! Tera walked us through every part, and talked to us about colors and what would work covering our myriad of colors (lots of dark colors in our house). They were flexible with our scheduling, made sure to be in touch during the process, and were patient with our questions. And the paint job is amazing - they took their time and paid attention to every detail, staircase, and edge. Will recommend them to everyone! Matt and Evan were great to work with. read more

We contracted with Tera Painting to do major tenant improvements in our commercial office. Tera took a 1500 sq. foot office that had been occupied for 30 years and made into a modern, beautiful space. Tera did top notch work, great attention to detail, took time to do all of the little things we asked them to do. Tera did way more than painting, they moved doors, performed all necessary construction to convert the space according to our requests. Tera did the project in thirty days, with a few additional days for additional asks and final touch up. The cost for the work was extremely reasonable, especially given the attention to detail and responsiveness to our every request. Highly recommend Tera Painting. I would give them 10 stars if I could! read more

We gathered a few bids for our new-to-us century old craftsman. Tera Painting was very reasonable in their bid. We needed a lot including rot repair, rebuilt porch railing, some kitchen windows replaced, interior paint for a few rooms, fence staining, and exterior paint for both detached garage the whole house. Matt connected us to Builder Brothers for the non-paint work (also awesome) and his team handled all the paint/stain. The interior paint crew was quick and non-obtrusive while we worked from home. Also knocked out a punch list of caulking various baseboard gaps. The exterior crew, Omar and team, were also very quick and thorough. Matt (owner) was very helpful with all of our questions and patient as well while we dragged our feet to finalize paint colors. Very happy with the results - they already painted a coworker's interior based on our recommendation and next door neighbor is reaching out to Tera Painting for a quote after seeing how ours turned out :) read more

Tera Painting is a high quality, competitively priced and customer-oriented company that delivers collaboration, great communication and outstanding outcomes-- the key reason for success? -- Superb, dedicated professional painters to accomplish the job. Working with lead painter Joel and Carlos, recently, my very difficult whole-house repainting was a miracle of achievement due to their effort, care and talent. This was a three color, three-story tall house with significant high ladder work. They are OSHA-certified and follow safety protocols. This is not a company of shortcuts. My job included three sheens-- flat, low-lustre and satin, prep of new wood in many areas, and a sequence that was deeply thoughtful about how to attack the challenge. They needed every type of expertise -- spraying, masking, small brush work, larger brush work, rollers, back rolling, and sanding. Impressive also was the care taken in prepping all surfaces to receive new paint. The wood sided house, nearly 40 years old, was demanding. The Tera painters met its every need. They also were very careful of plants and trees and each evening, left the job site clean and well organized. The Tera crew also used techniques that were the best and latest in this trade including a window film product that brilliantly created perfect edges and no stray paint when glass met trim. I would highly recommend Tera and look forward to hiring them again --the highest compliment one could offer a company, in a trade that requires meticulous attention to detail. I was fortunate to get the Tera team that seemed to love challenge and felt a personal commitment to me, my house and their company's reputation. It was a pleasurable process with them, and a beautiful outcome. I hope others will benefit from their dedication and expertise. read more

Matt and his team did an incredible job in our basement providing demo, framing, new drywall and texture. The quote was competitive and the process from start to finish was seamless. From day 1 the crew had the scope of work dialed in and were ready to go. They finished the job on time and on budget but still managed to give detail to everything and it shows in the final product. These guys want a successful project just as much as you do. I would highly recommend Tera and I look forward to working with them again in the future! read more

After getting proposals from a number of painters, we signed a contact with Tera Painting to paint our house this coming summer. We paid a deposit and waited for summer to come. The quote they gave was the most clear and well documented. It gave us piece of mind that the work was going to be done right. Unfortunately (or fortunately), we are now selling our house and the weather is not good for external painting. After reaching out to Matt and explaining the situation, they gave us a same-day refund. Did we actually use Tera Painting's services? No. Were we impressed by their customer service and handling of a cancellation? Absolutely we were. It's rare to find a organization who would be so responsive, even when they are losing business. Tera Painting easily earned a 5 star review today. read more

These guys were just great. Matt was super quick to offer a totally reasonable quote over Yelp for just an exterior spray. He went above and beyond in email communication, offering paint suggestions and ways to save money. We went back and forth figuring out exactly what I wanted, and the end result was perfect. We went from a bright color to a dark color, and even after the initial spray, they came back to do some light touch up at no extra charge. Would definitely recommend Tera to everyone! read more

(The included photos show white spots outside the painted area that were there from a previous painting job - Alex actually gave me hints on how to touch it up. Tera's work was amazing - with no errors and no mess, unlike whomever did the paint before in this house!) Tera is a family business that is outstanding. If you are lucky to have them offer an estimate to take your project on, don't wait on other estimates - just take it! They are competitive with their pricing and you'll get the most value for what you spend with them. Matt was absolutely great about responding quickly and being clear in his estimate and in clarifying all our expectations. He answered questions promptly and made our choice to go with Tera a breeze. Matt had Alex come to do our large cathedral wall within two days and the work was spot on! Not only was Alex thorough about making sure the wall was well-done, he was kind and considerate in our home. His professionalism was well-complimented by his friendliness as he taught me a bit about the work he was doing and about how our paint would come out. Because our home is new to us, he even went out of his way to help me learn how to work with the cathedral ceiling in our new home. He went so far as to pick out an appropriate ladder for our needs in the new home and brought it to me at our house that day so now I can clean the ceiling boards and change lightbulbs. He even showed me how to use it! Matt and Alex are great and we'll definitely recommend them to anyone and would gladly hire them again! read more

I had Tera Painting out to do some minor dry wall repair from some basement water damage we had a while back and then repaint a bathroom and do some touch up work on a corner that had delaminated.

We hired Tera painting to fix our ceiling which was damaged by a leaking. Alex and Matt showed up and did a great job. They tear down old ceiling, installed new drywall, sanded and leveled, and repainted. Very professional and also protected floor/walls carefully. One thing made me really appreciate their service. After job was first done, there were still some bulging areas that is observable when you turned off most of lights in the evening. I talked it with them. And they didn't give any excuse, quickly figure out the root cause, and took another 2 days to make our ceiling to perfect. They have a problem-solving mind and really care about their customers. read more

Tera painting put in insulation, drywall, texture, paint, and trim after my ground floor flooded. It was a big project and he did a fabulous job. You'd never know I literally didn't have the bottom 2-4 feet of wall throughout the ground floor. Their job was flawless. Matt was able to give an incredibly detailed bid (broken down by room, with photos etc.) very quickly, and I felt the price was was fair. He was very flexible and able to work around other contractors to help my ground floor get back to a livable condition quickly. He consistently made the choice to do the job to the highest standard, even if it was above and beyond what the initial contract had promised (e.g. going to get hemlock baseboards for the bathroom, which are more mold resistant, vs. using MDF). He, and his team (especially Alberto) were wonderful throughout. Everyone was so friendly and respectful: they even did their best to keep things quiet when my son napped. I'd recommend them to anyone (and have already recommended them to friends). read more

Another great review for Tera Painting. Residential painting job for me. Totally organized from the bid to the clean-up after the job completion. The Painter (Mark) was skilled and personable. Provided non-painting related advice to house maintenance issues that I had missed. Superlative job. The owner, Matt, runs the company like a finely tuned machine. Highly recommended! -Bruce read more

Very professional; of the highest quality. Very pleased with the workmanship. They were able to squeeze my job in to meet a tight deadline. On the pricier side but you get what you pay for. Highly recommended. I will be using them again! read more

After Matt reached out, I was given a highball estimate, very promptly, which I appreciated. But after I mentioned that the price was high, especially without viewing the project site, Matt seemed hesitant to spend the time and take a look. The language in his correspondence was less than optimal for a customer service interaction. Yelp lists 2 star reviews as "could've been better" and I believe this interaction could have been better. I will not consider working with the company in the future. read more

We used Tera Painting to stain our new fence. Matt responded to my request quickly and had a very competitive price. He was able to get us on the calendar quickly, and offered terrific advice to make sure we got the end result we wanted without needlessly over spending. Alex and the rest of the crew did phenomenal work. They worked hard to protect the surrounding areas, both on our property and on our neighbor's property. Alex was prompt with communication letting us know when they'd be able to start each day, keeping us posted when things changed due to weather, and even working over the weekend to make sure we got the project done in a timely manner. We're thrilled with the final result. Our fence is one of the nicest in the entire neighborhood! read more

When researching options for a facelift on the exterior of my home I decided to have Matt from Tera Painting come out to give me a bid. Matt was professional, very responsive and was out the next day. I received a detailed quote within 24 hours. I had a couple of other painters give me bids but they didn't impress or make me feel completely confident that things would be done the way I wanted within my budget. Matt instilled confidence in me that they would do a fantastic job and work with me to get things done the way I envisioned them. From first contact to commencing the project took less than 10 days. The painting team was excellent. Matt, Luis, Rafa, Mike and Javier were all detail oriented and kept me in the loop during all phases of the project. I was able to add and revise details as things unfolded. I am extremely pleased with the results and the exterior of my "new" home" looks great! Tera Painting did an exceptional job within my budget and I will highly recommend them to my friends, clients and business associates! read more
