5-star San Jose Area painting contractor near you

We bought this Santa Cruz gem with sweeping views of the Monterey Bay, but totally outdated, with wallpaper and popcorn ceilings from the 60’s. Being so frugal, we sacrificed an entire Christmas break to scrape, texture and paint back bedrooms. It was heartbreaking to be so disappointed with the results.

Not only did the the texture style not match the house, it didn’t sufficiently bond with the ceilings, so we had cracking and crumbling.

In desperation (and with pinched nerves in my neck), I called Jennifer Davis to help fix our mess, and do the kitchen and living/dining rooms.

After seeing these more public rooms transformed, I couldn’t settle for less anywhere in the house. We hired Jennifer Davis and her crew to re-texture and re-paint every room. It made such a difference to have painting-specific professionals do what we and other general contractors had tried to do; I only wish I hadn’t wasted so much time and money before hiring them.

Things that set them apart from other contractors include:

Knowledge: Jennifer held my hand through a color consultation that was eye-opening, taking care to emphasize natural light and compliment all other pieces of the aesthetics puzzle–including current trends. She also saved me from installing the wrong windows and trim.

Punctuality & Dependability: to minimize the disruption of the massive undertaking of painting. They make it easy for you.

Professionalism: Jennifer and her crew have good boundaries that minimize the invasive nature of being in your home. They put down drop cloths, of course, but they also put up barrier walls to contain the dust, smells and mess of the job.

Quality and Skill: Compared to multiple professionals and methods we have tried, they are just the BEST. We found a roof leak when we were re-doing the ceilings, and Jennifer’s crew replaced the drywall (complete with flawless holes cut for recessed lighting) before texturing. They also do trim!

Efficiency: Jennifer has the man/woman power and equipment necessary to get the job done instead of stretching it out for days/weeks. This really minimizes life disruption.

I’m so grateful my costly search has ended.
