Painting Today

Good.
Not Great.
But not bad.
Better then most.

Han’s team did a very thorough job painting the exterior of our house. It look longer than we expected, but the quality and cost are excellent. Very satisfied, highly recommended.

We had only ten days to get our home painted and could not find many painters in the area. Han was very accommodating and punctual.
He understood what we wanted and his guys did the perfect paint job.

We worked with Painting Today, they painted the outside of our house and our huge trellis. They did a fantastic job, meticulously prepping, priming, painting, and cleaning up. The team even power washed our patio at no extra cost. We will be working with Painting Today again for our upcoming remodels inside the house. I highly recommend this company.

Yo–
The benchmark for a good/​reliable company is its ability to perform when they make a mistake. Our paint job was really done in a high quality manner with a great deal of attention to detail — unfortunately they used semi gloss on all the trim around the front of the house — rather than the flat as specified. Mr. Han sent a crew of two men back out within two days to correct their problem. The workers were extremely cordial and took their time to provide us with a grade «A» fix to the problem.
I really appreciate the way that they approached the job to paint our exterior, one interior bathroom and two small walls — all completed within two days using three painters to apply two complete coats to all surfaces.
The results were fantastic and though Painting Today was not the lowest bidder — they certainly were the most responsive and thorough!

In March we hired Mr Han and team to paint the inside of my house. His quote was competitive and his crew did a great job.
A few weeks ago we again needed painting on our commercial bldg and Mr Han again was the best quote for the project.
Their prep work with power washing, caulking and attention to detail was appreciated. Great work and I will use them again. Thanks to Nan in the front Office to for solid communication on both projects!

I’ve recently used Han to paint the exterior of my house. His quote was competitive and his crew did a great job. Their prep work with power washing, caulking, removal of items next to the house and attention to detail was appreciated. Han also went around the house the last two days to quality check the work of his crew and had them fix items that I didn’t even notice til he pointed them out. The house looks great and I will use them again.

I needed to get my garage door and trim painted, and also a bedroom. Han came by on time to give us estimate. His price is competitive, and the work quality is good. I recommend them.

We needed our ²⁄₂ painted. Got an estimate, which was very reasonable, and was quoted 1 – 1.5 days to complete the project. They arrived 10 minutes early and got to work RIGHT AWAY. We left our house at 830am, and they called me at 2pm saying they were 30 minutes away from being done. AMAZING!!! The work was immaculate. The lines were clean. Great work by a great team.

I got referred to Han through my cousin. Han was very professional and fast. He initially quoted me about 3 – 4 days to paint my home and he was available 2 days after we had talked. It turns out, Han and his team only needed 2 days to paint my entire home! That was great and very helpful as I didn’t want to have it stretched out so I can live my home with less interruptions. At the end of the 2^nd day, where I saw touch-​up was needed, I let him know and his team took care of it. In addition, there was a light that got moved during the painting process, so I called him a day after the painting was done; He returned to my house that same day and adjusted the light. His price was reasonable and probably better than most. I would highlight recommend Han and his team!

Painting Today was great to work with: professional, competitively priced, flexible and fast! I had the interior of my entire home repainted and it looked like a brand new house afterwards. Mr. Han did a walk-​through with me after they completed the job and touched up a few sections that I wanted cleaned up a bit before he left. There was one little dribble of paint that I missed during the walk-​through on the fridge, but if I had pointed it out, I’m sure he would have taken care of it as well. Overall, it was a great experience and I would use them again.

We had a few contractors estimate our interior paint job. Mr. Han, of Painting Today, was always on time for the estimates and follow up appointments. He offered a very competitive estimate, and could start our job within a few days after we agreed to use his services. Our job was done quickly because he used several people from his crew. My only suggestion is to be sure you know what paint colors you want (he used the Kelly Moore line), as they work so fast there won’t be time to think twice about the colors.

3 YEARS ON: Fushia board and front door have cracked!!!
This is because his men did not prep the wood prior to painting. Also the same result with the window trims. Additionally, they missed a couple of sections indoors on the ceiling. I called Hak but he could not be bothered coming out to fix the issue. Going with a ‘Professional’ painting company to paint entire trims, fushia board and garage door again. Basically, doing the same thing exactly 3 years since we had ‘Painter Friend’ do this; how pathetic! «PAINTER DE-​FRIEND»

Mr. Han’s company came highly recommended by one of my neighbors who used them to paint both of her houses. Their pricing was competitive and they did such a nice job on the house next door that I decided to hire them to paint both my house and my mom’s. They were always on time, professional, extremely neat in their work, and finished both houses ahead of schedule. They left the yards neater than they were before they started. Working with Nan, the office manager, via e-​mail was a breeze, as well.
My neighbor on the other side hired a different painter to do their house the week after mine was finished and they haven’t had such a good experience. Their painter took three times as long to paint essentially the same house, had areas they missed, got yellow paint overspray on their gray roof, and left their yard a mess, not even reattaching the screen on the sliding glass door.
I am confident that I made the right decision in going with Painting Today. I would definitely hire them again and wouldn’t hesitate recommending them to others.

We used painter’s friend or painting today as they are currently called for a whole home interior paint job. We liked what they did for the most part. Their estimate was in the same ballpark as some of the other vendors that we contacted and they were able to come in on short notice. They estimated 2 – 2.5 days for the paint job, but got it done in a day. Very efficient crew. They did a good job covering everything.
The one complaint I had was that I had asked for three doors to be painted on the ground floor and it was in their quote (one kitchen closet door, one entry door and one additional bath door). At the end of the day when they were wrapping up, I realized that they had not painted the kitchen closet door even though Mr. Han had marked it when he did the walk around in the morning. I talked to the lead guy who was painting and said that he hadnt painted that door — he said that they had painted another door by mistake so he would not paint that door! I didnt have the patience to argue with him, so I just paid him and moved on.

I contacted this company for an estimate for interior painting and crown molding in my home. The guy came and said he did not know about the molding. He said they work with a guy that does molding and he would come by later to take measurements and give me a quote. This was kind of a waste of my time since I thought the same company would be able to do the molding (when I asked them on the phone if they do molding, they said yes). Either way, I said it was OK. So the painting guy saw the house and said he would send me a quote for the paint job. A while later, the molding guy shows up and takes his measurements (he took almost an hour taking measurements) and says he will get back to me via email with a quote. Well it’s been over a week now and the molding guy never got back to me. The painter guy got back to me with a quote in the meantime and I emailed him back asking why I didn’t get a quote from the molding guy. The painter guy never responded to the email.
On top of all that, it’s weird because I don’t know which company is which. I called Painter Friend, Inc initially and they later told me that they changed their name to Painting Today. I have no idea why, but maybe it’s because they have some questionable reviews on the Unilocal page for Painter Friend?
I don’t know how well they paint, but from the looks of how disorganized and shady they seem, I don’t think I trust them enough to find out.

I am very very happy with Mr. Han’s work painting my entire house. He did everything very neatly and precisely. It was all hassle free with email communications as his office manager Nan is always on top of email & contact us when needed, punctuality and quality work.
Mr. Han was fantastic to work with, from start to finish. Very professional, super friendly, and explained everything thoroughly. Mr. Han & his crew met me the morning he was going to start and was even 10 minutes early! They finished of the project ahead of schedule & came back on my requests to touch up few areas that I wanted to be perfect.
I discovered Mr. Han through the terrific reviews on Unilocal.These reviews absolutely reflect his workmanship. Extremely reasonable, too, with his pricing. Highly recommended!
Thank you, Mr. Han

Painter Friend promptly contacted us following our poor review here. Chun was friendly and offered a discount to compensate us for our frustration. I appreciated his professionalism in dealing with our complaint quickly.

I chose Painter Friend to paint my loft on Santana Row. Prior to choosing a painter I met with them, Spectrum Bay Painting, Marcus Henderson Painting, and McCleary Painting. I ended up choosing them because their bid was the lowest, they were friendly, and seemed eager for my business. Judy checked in with me once a week throughout the month that passed between getting the quote and getting the keys to my place. Her and the lead painter were very patient and answered all my concerns before we scheduled the job. I really liked that they were up with the times and were able to communicate over e-​mail instead of phone. I should note that I got the keys on Friday and the painters started on Saturday at 8am — literally 12 hours notice! These guys are very flexible.
There are some areas that don’t look right, probably because of poor drywall patch jobs done by others. There is also some chipping, and a few spots that have a small amount of paint run. I’m not sure if that’s due to poor quality paint (I used Kelly Moore) or an inadequate prep job. Aside from that they did a great job, especially cutting in the lines that meet the other walls. I should mention that an issue arose after the job was completed and paid for. I e-​mailed Judy about my concern and they addressed it immediately. This company really cares about their customers and has outstanding customer service. I will definitely be a repeat customer and will not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Painter Friend painted my entire house including kitchen cabinets, ceilings, closets and walls. They do great work and the paint job looks fantastic! They charged a very reasonable rate and finished the job in 3 days.
I was also incredibly impressed with their customer service. When Mr. Kim was informed that the painters accidentally left stains on the carpet and broke a few blinds, he immediately offered to pay to have the blinds replaced and the carpet professionally cleaned. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.
