Finished work, and the prep behind it.

What happens before the first coat goes on is what decides whether it lasts.
The part of the job you never see is the part that lasts.
Anyone can roll paint on a wall. What separates a job that holds for a decade from one that fails in a season happens before the first coat goes on. These three steps happen on every job, in this order.
Wash, scrape, patch, prime
Surfaces get cleaned and sound before anything else. Bare spots are primed, holes and cracks are filled, and failing paint comes off rather than getting painted over.
Mask it like it is our house
Floors covered, fixtures papered, tape lines run properly. The photos below are ours, and they are the ones most painters would never bother to take.
Two coats, then we walk it with you
Full coats, not a stretched single pass. At the end we walk the job with you and fix the list before we pack up, not after you call.

Masked, papered and primed. This is the part nobody photographs.

Curved stair, fully masked. Every tread and spindle taped off.

Same door, finish coat on. Drop cloths out to the street edge.
Who you are dealing with, and who is on the ladder.

The people who price the job are the people on the ladder.
Resendiz Painting is run by the two people in this photo. Valente holds the licence and runs every job on site. Angel handles the estimates and the schedule. When you call, you get one of them, and the crew that shows up is theirs, not a sub crew hired for the week.
Licensed and bonded under CSLB #1096136. Based in San Jose, working across the Bay Area.
Each card is set in a finish we have actually put on a house in the gallery above.
Paint, stain and coatings. Inside, outside and commercial.
Interior painting
Walls, ceilings, trim, doors and stairwells. Furniture covered, floors papered, edges cut clean. We leave the room ready to live in, not ready for another contractor.
Exterior painting
Stucco, siding, trim, fascia, eaves and garage doors. Wash first, scrape and prime the bare spots, then two coats. Skipping the prep is why the last one failed.
Cabinets and built-ins
Degrease, sand, bonding primer, sprayed finish. It is the cheapest way to make a kitchen look new, and the easiest one to do badly.
Wood staining and refinishing
Decks, fences, pergolas, front doors and interior trim. Washed and brightened first, then stained in the transparency you actually want.
Floor coatings
Garage, warehouse and shop floors. Ground, patched and coated in the right order so it bonds instead of peeling up in a month.
Commercial and multi unit
Offices, units and turnovers. We work around your schedule, including nights and weekends, and you get one number to call.

Three taps and a phone number. We call back the same day to set a time to come measure.
Three questions. About twenty seconds.
Tap your answers and we will call you back with a time to come measure it.
What needs painting?
Pick the closest one. If it is more than one thing, pick the biggest.
The short version, for anyone who scrolls faster than they read.
Prep first. Protect everything you are not painting. Two full coats. Then walk the job with you before we pack up. That is the whole method, and it is why our work still looks right years later.
A mobile crew based in San Jose. No showroom, no office rent.
We come to you, right across the Bay.
Working the South Bay, the Peninsula and the East Bay. No showroom and no office rent, which is part of why the number looks the way it does.

Not on the list? Ask. If it is a reasonable drive from San Jose, we will come out and look at it.
The questions people ask before they call.
Yes. CSLB license #1096136, classification C-33, Painting and Decorating, current and active, held by Valente Resendiz Murillo, with a $25,000 contractor bond. Look the number up yourself at cslb.ca.gov before you hire anybody, including us.
Our own painters. We do not hand your job to a rotating sub crew, and the person who prices the work is the person running it on site. You will know who is coming before they arrive.
Yes, and it is a real estimate, not a sales appointment. We come out, measure, talk through what you want, and give you a written price. If you want to think about it, think about it. Nobody is going to sit at your kitchen table waiting for a signature.
It depends on the surface, the size and how much prep it needs, which is why we price every job on site and put the number in writing. A single room, a full exterior and a set of cabinets are three very different jobs. You get a real price for yours, not a range that moves later, and the estimate is free.
The prep decides that more than the painting does. When we measure the job we give you a start date and a finish date in writing, and if anything moves you hear it from us before you notice it yourself.
No. We move what needs moving, cover what stays, and put it back. Floors get covered before anything gets opened. If something is fragile or valuable, point it out on the walkthrough and we will work around it.
Yes. Offices, retail, multi unit turnovers and shop floors. We schedule around your hours, including nights and weekends, so the work does not cost you trading time.
Yes. Si, hablamos espanol. Call or text either way.
The right product for the surface and the exposure, not one brand for everything. Exterior stucco, interior trim, a kitchen cabinet and a garage floor each want a different primer and finish, and your written estimate names exactly what is going on your walls. If you have a brand you trust, tell us and we will work with it.
The only honest way to show a paint job is the same view twice.
Drag the line and watch the room change.
Pull any slider across. The line is where the old coat stops and the new one starts.
