Coastal West Painting

Kevin and his company just got done painting the interior of our new home. Yay! It looks so good! I was a bit stressed out about color choices at first. It’s a big decision! But, Kevin really helped guide us in the right direction. And, we’re super stoked with the look!
I really appreciated the attention to detail throughout the project. And, in general Kevin was super great about responding to all of my questions, and getting things going on our schedule. I will definitely keep Kevin in mind for any future painting projects.

Kevin and crew are superb. Easy to work with and he and the crew do a fantastic job. He’s done big and small jobs for me for over 7 years. Truly a joy to work with.

Kevin and his team did an amazing job of painting our interior. He was professional, communicated really well, was always extremely positive and helpful. And, his team did A+ work. As in indicator of his style, I noticed that the team arrived 30 minutes early each day and waited outside until the exact moment they were to arrive, then rang the doorbell to start work right on the dot. That’s on time! Their professionalism and attention to detail was extraordinary. Just give Kevin a call. You’ll be so glad you did.

Coastal West a Painting just finished our house. Kevin was easy to work with — responsive, open to feedback. Pablo, Lalo and Enrico were kind, hard working and had great senses of humor. I love the attention to detail. I highly recommend them.

I’m very pleased with the work of Coastal West Painting. In June 2014, Coastal West painted the exterior of my two-​story house, built in 1907. It needed routine surface preparation, no special repairs. Kevin was helpful in choosing colors, discussing my choices and adding his input, but letting me make the ultimate decision, which I think was greatly improved with his guidance. Kevin and his staff were easy and pleasant to communicate with. Staff were respectful and careful of the property while working on it. I appreciated Kevin’s willingness to answer my questions and, in regards to two missteps, he was extremely honest and quick to make corrections. For that alone, I would gladly do business with Coastal West again. Also, their price was very fair (I had gotten three quotes). Very good quality work for a fair price. I would glad do business with Coastal West again and will keep them in mind for future painting needs.

I called 2 painters to meet me, at a home we were not yet living in, for an estimate. The first 1 never showed up. I found Kevin and Coastal West on Unilocal.And he was there on time and gave us an estimate. I had no clue what colors we were going to choose but had some ideas. He was able to help in choosing some colors.
Once we signed the contract, Kevin was able to start and finish the project in the short time that we had. The work was extremely professional. We even had an issue with the bedroom windows and blinds. We had a small gap between the window and the wall and he was able to fill the space! The work was awesome. Probably a bit more expensive than others but reliable. Their work was very detail oriented and worth the extra money to not have any hassle!

Would give 6 Stars if I could. Coastal West is AWESOME. Here’s why:
— Prep was fantastic
— Kevin spent a lot of time working with me on different color options for both the shingle stain and the body/​siding paint. He provided some clever photoshop mockups, then came by in person multiple times to present different combinations and make color adjustments as requested. «Above and beyond the call of duty» is an understatement.
— Kevin’s super communicative, easy to work with, fun.
— Pricing is not the cheapest in town, but I can’t emphasize this enough, you get what you pay for and this cliché is so true when it comes to this sort of work. Kevin’s pricing was better than ²⁄₃ of the bids I saw and I think his quality is the best.
So, I would work with Kevin again in a heartbeat. He’s got a fan for life in me.

If you are looking for a painting contractor that shows up on time, does a professional job (he repaired small things like the trim along the base board and sealing all the cracks in the ceiling/​walls) and completes the project in record time (he painted our 1 bedroom apartment and kitchen including inside the cabinets in less than 3 days), then call Kevin.
We originally called 3 different painting companies for an estimate, however we decided to go with Kevin because of the reviews he received and they are much deserved. We especially appreciate that he came by after painting our place to help us get the windows unstuck. In addition, he was understanding and reasonable when we didn’t realize the painting of the apartment didn’t include the trim and eventually, we worked out an agreement and were able to get the trim painted.
He also helped us stay within our budget by having us do some minor prep work.
Our apartment looks so much better, fresher and brighter… we highly recommend Kevin.
Oh yeah, and he’s super clean.

Can’t say enough about Kevin and his staff at Coastal West Painting! We were in a bit of a time crunch and needed to move in as soon as possible. After a walkthrough and choosing interior colors (even chose one of their color recommendations), Coastal West Painting came in and painted the interior of our home a day faster than estimated. And within those days, they arrived promptly to not disturb our everyday hectic schedule, kept their equipment organized when they left, and always contacted me with updates or when they encountered any issues to resolve in a timely manner. They were very professional, flexible, and extremely easy to work with. Needless to say, we were very happy with the job! Not only were we impressed, first-​time visitors to our new home were very impressed as well. We would definitely and highly recommend Coastal West Painting to anyone!

Kevin painted our kitchen cabinets as well as several rooms in our new home. From the beginning, Kevin was prompt, courteous, and professional. He was flexible with our availability and very accommodating. His work is top notch and I will definitely hire him again for future painting projects. Thanks Kevin!

I had my cement stairs stained, the several story rough finish exterior plywood done with a heavy body stain and some unexpected and expected repairs from rot. My deck has lots of spindles. Kevin noticed all the ones that were iffy and replaced them, greatly improving safety. His bid wasn’t the lowest but close enough for me to feel well treated.
This is a honest, professional, focused service that I recommend without reservation. What a guy and what a team. No mess (my neighbor is fussy when it’s her place and my workers but not the reverse, unfortunately) with cleanup on a daily basis. His advice was always right, I found out… and when I didn’t follow it at first and then changed my mind, he pleasantly performed the change to what he’d said all along without making me feel foolish. Now there’s a thoughtful fellow.
Kevin B’s. knowledge is broad, with great caulking and other prep work. I wish I knew him when I had my place painted 20 yrs ago. The difference in quality is startling from that paint job. I have learned through the years and also from watching Coastal West Painting’s performance.
Kevin does a lot of the finish work himself so the quality control is superfine tho his team is excellent, literally never careless, and with great attitudes. If there was some little detail that needed attention, they got right on it without complaint. Sometimes this was without my having noticed the need in the first place!
About the only thing I can say is that NOW IS THE TIME (due to weather) to have INDOOR work done… by Kevin, owner of Coastal West Painting.

Kevin painted the exterior of our house and did a terrific job. He and is crew were timely and professional, always neat and available to answer questions. We gave Kevin our sample colors and he suggested some others and it wasn’t until he was almost done that I was congratulating my wife on picking such good colors that she reminded me we actually chose one Kevin’s suggestions! He’s got a great eye so listen to what he has to say. We specially like he is a licensed contractor and lead certified; keep that in mind if you have children in your house. Our house looks great and we couldn’t be happier.

Great job, both interior and exterior. Flexible with the timing and prompt when times were set. Kevin was also very helpful with color selections and connecting us with other contractors necessary for some pre-​painting repair work. His prices are very reasonable particularly given the quality of the outcome.

I love my house! Kevin worked with us to find the perfect color to compliment our street, homestyle and landscape. I considered over 8 base colors and ended up with the first color Kevin recommended.
I waited over 5 years to paint my house and am very happy with the quality of Kevin’s crew.
You get what you pay for and the job was worth every penny!

Professional and flexible with my schedule Coastal West Painting did an outstanding job painting my place. It is older, and has a lot of various trim and wainscot, To make it challenging there have been many different repair and remodels over the decades. It seemed very challenging. Kevin, of Coastal West, fully explained the various options to deal with all of this. Together we agreed upon a very workable plan. My schedule was tight, and he was able to juggle his a bit to do the job in the time I had available. That was a big relief. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, he gave me a bunch of good tips on how to come up with colors that both I want and which would compliment the place. It all come together perfectly. I highly recommend getting a quote from Kevin at Coastal West. Coastal West does great work.

Money well spent! I couldn’t be happier with the job Coastal West did on the interior of my house. This was the first time I ever hired a pro to do the work and im glad I did! Before the paint went on the wall Kevin made me aware of many different visual perspectives on my color/​placement choice I wasn’t taking into consideration. If you ask, he will really give you some great input on your job… you feel like you’re in a «This Old House» episode. lol, seriously. His estimate was dead-​on and the work was totally pro. I have rounded corners in the house, the painting lines were so perfect it now looks like ninety degree corners! Had I done the job myself it would have taken four days and not looked half as good. Do yourself a favor, don’t be cheap, let the pro’s do it for you. It’s been two weeks now and im still starring at the walls every time im in the living room! Great Work!

I cannot recommend CWP highly enough. The job kept changing as we were working with our landlord, and the budget was not entirely clear. Kevin came over several times (on my schedule) and worked with us, explaining options to save costs, and working with our priorities.
We planned to have the work done while we were on vacation. We returned to a fantastic job — attn to detail — and a cleaner house than we left! Kevin was very concerned that we understood what would be done, what was done, and that we were happy with it– very impressive.

My wife and I hired Kevin, owner of Coastal West Painting, to paint several rooms in our house when we moved to Alameda. The job he performed was top notch, and easily exceeded our expectations.
Kevin was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. His estimate was both competitive and comprehensive. Above all else, we were extremely pleased with quality of the workmanship and the level of cleanliness throughout the entire project.
I highly recommend Coastal West Painting, and will gladly use their services for all of my future painting needs.
