Testimonials

It's a rare thing these days to get such thorough service. Steve and his guys at Empire Painting are some of the most professional and friendly people you could ask for. They did an excellent job; from power washing the house, to using multiple paint colors on my 2,000 sq ft stucco home, to checking back about our satisfaction with the end result. They excel at paying attention to detail and are super friendly to work with. Steve knows his trade and if you are in the market for an exterior house painter, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!! - Mel R. - San Francisco

Client Since 1995

Not only would I recommend Empire Painting to any friend or relative looking to upgrade the appearance and value of their home, I honestly feel I would be doing them a disservice if I didn't. The price was exactly what I was initially quoted, and the job took precisely as long as I was told it would take. Considering the quality of their work, that cost was more than reasonable, and the painter who refinished both the exterior and interior of my house was friendly, professional, and clearly a master of his craft. - Jason G. - Redding, CA
