I had my Log Cabin and garage stained by Atherton Painting and I am here to tell you they had good pricing, excellent response time, and the place looks beautiful. The team doing the job were on time, communicated well and were professional and meticulous painters. Kudos to Scott and Paula and to James. Job well done. Almost unheard of in today's world!

My house does look nice but Im disappointed because of the lack of care of my personal property while painting by some of the guys on the crew (two of them were fantastic!). Its been 8 months and I still have evidence of overspray on my plants and outdoor items even after they were cleaned by the staff. Personally, I found the owner to be extremely patronizing when I called to speak to him about the issue.

James and his team did an amazing job on refinishing our cherry wood kitchen to a clean fresh white. James was extremely reaponsive and his team are clean, poliye and perfectionists. It was such a great job that we will be getting James back for more work. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Atherton to anyone for renovations and painting!!!

Atherton Painting and Renovations painted our oak kitchen cabinets the creamy white color I picked out. The job was well done and I couldn't be happier! James Atherton and crew delivered what was promised. I now love the kitchen I had loathed!

I'm not happy at all with my experience with Atherton I had a shower stall put in not a full bathroom remodel just a shower stall 4500.00 and I had to cut them off at that because we were well over budget from our agreement Now we have tiles not completed and areas not painted when I contacted James he said "your shower turned out to be worse case it stinks when it turns into a situation" this was 5 days of labor and three months of waiting for this job to be started and I still can't use it after all that money invested
