McCarthy Painting Co

Yes, McCarthy is not only as good as it gets, it surpasses expectations! Clear communication, professional service, clean work, perfection in motion! I can only say that I have never been happier than working with McCarthy Painting for decades. Every job is expertly completed with that extra touch that makes your home, inside and out, glow with beauty. There is no reason to look any further, for their prices are extremely competitive, and combined with the strict ethical practices, you are feeling stress-​free and completely satisfied. My home is magnificent inside and out. The guys were beautiful artists. Do not need to look any further to get painting done. You have chosen the right group with McCarthy Painting!

We would definitely recommend working with McCarthy. They were really pleasant and thorough during the proposal stage, and we selected them because they were competitively priced and seemed like they were very experienced and would get the job done correctly and professionally. Everything was completed on budget and without a hitch, and they made a great effort to finish the job in between our rainy spring weeks. The whole project was smooth and problem free. A great result for a big job!

Hired them again to paint the exterior trim on my house. Same great service, friendly skilled team, overall great experience. Very happy with the work as well – place looks great.

They painted the outside of my house. The workers have done a great job. The charge for the job is very reasonable. I would recommend this company without reservation.

We went with McCarthy Painting because of their strong local reputation in Mill Valley and Marin. They are very professional yet extremely easy to work with. Their excellent work, attention to detail and kindly manner speak for themselves.

McCarthy Painting just finished the exterior painting of our house (4 bedroom, 3,000 sq ft in Tiburon) and we couldn’t be happier with the job they did. I give them the highest grades for the quality of the work they did and the ease with which the entire process went. When I receive top quality work I like to give a top quality review. So here goes.
First let me say that I’m very picky about who works on our house. When I was younger I rehabbed 10 houses in the D.C. area, a couple of which were old Federalist era townhouses in Georgetown and Capitol Hill. I’m a stickler for detail and quality of workmanship.
Having said that, it was a pleasure to use both the painting and carpentry crew from McCarthy Painting. From the beginning of the process dealing with Greg Owen the owner was very straightforward and enjoyable. McCarthy was one of three estimates I received and they were definitely competitive.
Once we chose them, I dealt with Jennifer the operations manager. She’s great, being both smart and very communicative. She has excellent customer service skills and always kept me informed of what was happening and she set very realistic expectations at each step of the process.
I knew in advance that the house needed repair due to some wood rot. McCarthy uses their own in-​house carpentry crew rather than contracting it out. I like this a lot as it makes it easier and more effective for the carpentry and paint crew to coordinate the workflow. It also means that McCarthy has a steady stream of work to keep employees busy and have the continuity of using the same work crew from project to project.
Santiago is the carpentry crew chief and he too is an excellent communicator and it was enjoyable working with him. Further inspection revealed additional problems beyond what I had originally seen. As he and I talked about how to approach some of the repairs, it was clear to me that he is very skilled and he reminded me of some of the outstanding carpenters I used years ago. I came to trust him very quickly, enough so that I told him at one point that if he saw something that needed attention and if I wasn’t around, that he should move forward fixing it and tell me about it later.
Santiago turned me over to his nephew Edwin and his assistant Arthur who did the day to day repairs. They were here about a week and a half and it was a pleasure watching them work. They too are highly skilled, worked non-​stop and always had a cheerful disposition. They took a lot of care around the outside of the house and cleaned up thoroughly each day. When they were all done with the repairs I was extremely pleased with the quality of their work
Next came Luis and Gino to do the prepping and painting. Luis is the lead and he is a very pleasant guy and communicates very well. Again, as with the carpentry crew, both Luis and Gino were a pleasure to work with. When we hit a decision point on color selection or any other details, I welcomed the thoughts Luis had. The house was primed completely and two coats followed. I inspected closely at each stage and was impressed by their attention to detail. Upon completion the house looks fantastic and the neighbors who’d been watching not only gave their thumbs-​up but also asked for the phone number so they could have some work done too.
As I said at the beginning, I’m a stickler for quality of workmanship, thoroughness, cleanup and overall customer service. I was impressed from beginning to end and highly recommended you talk with McCarthy Painting.
My expectation as a customer is to feel delighted with the value I receive from a contractor and they certainly delivered on all counts.

Mccarthy Painting did an excellent job on our interior painting no in kentfield. Meticulous attention to detail, friendly and reliable. I would recommend them to anyone

Excellent experience.
Quality of work was the best and they are very nice people.

Selected based on how personable Greg was when he came out to do the estimate, so can’t really comment on price but I was happy with what I paid.
I was extremely happy with the way in which William and Wilfredo worked (very quiet, clean and tidy) and nice guys to have around the house. The end result is superb (4 bedroom single family complete repaint including all trim).
I highly recommend McCarthy.

We had the house (BIG house with very steep slopes) completely stained (shingles) and trim painted by McCarthy’s team. A wonderful experience. The estimate was fair and accurate, the crew was beyond professional and nice. The job was a big one and they did such an outstanding one that I wouldn’t use anyone else.

Really EXCELLENT! The McCarthy team just spent two weeks painting the exterior trim of my home. From my initial meeting with Greg, scheduling with Jennifer, and the actual job — everything went perfectly. The painters were on time, kept me in the loop regarding the plan for the day and did an outstanding job! A++++++

McCarthy is responsive and modern in their communication and bidding, super well organized in their scheduling, they deploy a professional top notch group of painters, and they set the standard of quality and professionalism in their finished product. From their quoting to their billing to their scheduling it felt like I was working with a high tech company, not a painting company that has been in business for 40+ years.

My husband and I had such a good experience with McCarthy Painting Co. when they painted the outside of our house this past Fall, they will be returning this next week to paint the inside of our home. We requested the same «dream team» of Javier and Manuel who have an incredible work ethic. Also, they were always cheerful, kept us well informed, and cleaned up at the end of each day. Our house hadn’t been painted in many years and the prep work was excellent! I can’t say enough about McCarthy from start to finish. Greg who bids the jobs is also thorough and is able to give a printed bid on the spot… no waiting! Jennifer, my office contact, who deals with all the other details is terrific as well. She is also always very helpful and friendly.
Thank you McCarthy Painting.

A great company with professional individuals who are respectful, cordial, and thorough with their workmanship skills. We had used McCarthy in the past, and they continue to be within the market price in completing the various painting jobs that we have around our home. We continue to be pleased with their finish product, and will always value their relationship. Thank-​you for being so considerate in meeting all our needs, and performing the job well. If you ever are considering any professional interior or exterior painting, you would be amiss to not include McCarthy Painting as a potential contractor.

We used McCarthy before and were just as pleased this time with another great job. We had our shingles re-​stained and trim painted. They were able to keep the cost down a bit by not repainting under the eaves where the paint was still fine. Jhonny and William did the work and were great. We hardly noticed they were here while working and the house looks great.

These guys are as good as it gets. This review is very delayed. Manuel and his crew painted our home (3 story victorian) in 2009 (I think it was anyway) and it still looks great. We still get compliments on the paint job! They were professional, always cleaned up after themselves and did such a great job on the house. I can’t say enough good things about them. We have a difficult house to say the least and they have done an exceptional job. Jennifer, who runs the office is well organized and very responsive. Highly, highly recommended.

AMAZING COMPANY !
if i could give them more than 5 stars i would!
All the staff are SO nice and helpful ! Everything from the courtesy call reminders, to the logo! very detail oriented and customer focused! Thank you to the folks at McCarthy Painting !!!

McCarthy Painting recently repainted the entire interior of my rental house, including doors, crown and baseboard molding. They squeezed in my job over the weekend, were diligent about controlling splatter, left mo mess, and were quick to call when they noticed an extra coat would be needed (checked with me prior to incurring extra expense). They weren’t the cheapest, but the quality of output and no-​hassle service were worth it. I will call again for my next job.

Just had Manuel and Wilfredo back to paint my new interior doors and do some caulking and sealing of my new sliding doors. As expected, they did a perfect job. The new doors are smooth as silk and gorgeous. Just like last time, these guys were professional and left my place spic and span when they left. I was in the house the whole time they were working (over two days) and they were totally unobtrusive, so I was able to work the whole time. Greg stopped by midway through the job to check on the progress, which was appreciated. All in all, another great experience.

We recently hired McCarthy Painting to paint all the iron railings, front gate and light fixtures on our house as well as a 30×40 foot pergola that was badly in need of repair.
They did excellent work (which may have been particularly difficult as some locations were very high and difficult to reach) and were courteous, professional and extremely neat.
We are very happy with the results and highly recommend their services.
