Report
We painted our 5,000 sq.ft. offices in Moraga this summer. Kris Kent came out to specify means, methods, and materials. I learned a lot about types of paint and finishes, and feel I got a very lasting job because of the first quality top grade Kelly Moore paints and primers he brought to our job. Yet his bid was also reasonable for the quality of the work provided. His crew was top notch. Completely prompt, hard working and responsive always. They took the extra time required to get all our building surfaces very thoroughly prepped, which is 90% of a great paint job! Their work ethic was beyond

Report
We called Mr. Kent out on an emergency job for our store inside the Sunvalley Mall. Mr. Kent knocked out the job for us in one day. He was punctual and professional. His prices were honest and he recommended the best method for the job in order to get that professional look that we were looking for.
