Recommendation for Exterior House Painter
I am looking for current recommendations for exterior house painters. Our house in El Cerrito was painted about 8 years ago but the painters did a poor prep job and we have had a lot of peeling and fading and looking generally ragged. We'd like to redo it. Looking for an affordable quality paint job that will last. Thanks!

We live in El Cerrito as well. We had Arana Craftsman Painters paint the exterior of our house a bit over a year ago. We were very happy with it. Once they started, pretty much all communications was via email, which worked great as we work full time and were never at home while the painters were there. They were very detail-oriented and did a great job. I also liked that you get one hour with a color consultant. That really helped in choosing a great color scheme (our house previously was pink and we knew that we definitely wanted to change that).
I can highly recommend my painter David Zurun at 510.524.8928 and davidzurunpainting [at] yahoo.com
He is easy to work with, knows his craft, smart and gave my 1939 house the highest quality work for exterior prepping and painting. He found the tiny water leaks that others did not. He lives in El Cerrito and wants work close by so I encourage you to contact him. He was able to save and repair a friend's windows too.
Level Five Painting did an outstanding job on our two-story home in Berkeley, California. Prior to bidding Juan Cerritos carefully reviewed all surface materials and conditions, recommended top-of-the-line sealant for joints between stucco and wood surfaces, and proposed adding weep holes at deck railings after repainting to improve drainage. The crew assigned to the job, Javier and Marvyn, were prompt every day, worked very hard and were always courteous. They were very thorough in their prep work and the application of finish coats to insure long-term integrity of the job. I learned about Level Five on BPN -- the company sets a high bar for quality and customer satisfaction.
