Wayne's crew under Mike did a great job painting the outside of our smooth stucco home, detached garage, tool shed and barn. They finished in 10 days and took care to do a quality job. I would highly recommend them of any painting needs.

Kudos to my Brushworks paint team. The crew, Kevin and Paul, and the owner, Wayne were exceptional in every way. These three men delivered on every phase and aspect of the job when painting my rental in SLO. Upon 1st contact Wayne promptly scheduled a meet time with me and gave a fair and reasonable proposal for his crew to complete the work required. We spent at least an hour discussing some of the dry rot issues and construction repairs that needed to be completed before painting. Wayne also stopped in to see how things were going at least three different occasions.

I couldn't get many painters to call me back let alone do an estimate. Wayne and Kevin were great and easy to work with. This was for a rental unit and we handled everything remotely. The work was well done and completed on time. I highly recommend Brushworks Painting. You can't go wrong using them.

My Job was a moderately large interior job in the $4,000.00 range which was completed in a very professional manner by the foreman Mike Bailey and painting technician Bobbie Smith. I would not hesitate to highly recommend this company and it's employees for any painting you need done. They truly went the extra mile to do my job with the utmost courtesy and professionalism! We are thoroughly satisfied.
