House Painting Inc. just painted my home in Laurel Canyon and did a fabulous job! Everything about this experience was top quality.  It was really easy dealing with both James (who bid the job and remained 100% available throughout) and Andrew (who ran my particular job).   Each was highly professional and personable and followed up on every single detail.   Their price was competitive and reasonable.   Their written bid was detailed and covered everything James and I had talked about during our first meeting.  Andrew and his crew were really meticulous, clean and thorough.  All the guys were really pleasant to have around the house for a week.  They obviously took pride in their work.  When my wife and I were struggling to finalize our choice of trim colors Andrew was a great sounding board.  When they left, they put everything they had moved back in place perfectly.  I am an attorney who pays careful attention to details and I also have done a ton of construction work in my life.  I had a really good sense about House Painting Inc. from the very beginning and it was a great choice.  House Painting Inc. is a really well-run business.  They will do a great job for you and turn a potentially stressful event into a thoroughly pleasant one!

Magnificent painting job! I am so happy; my 94-year-old woodframe house that hadn’t been painted for 17 years is transformed. Andrew, Esteban and Sergio were punctual, courteous and cheerful. They carefully protected all plants and surfaces and left everything clean and tidy at the end of each day. I am confident the beautiful, smooth surface will last for years. The two days they painted the trim were VERY HOT, but the did a PERFECT job. They even painted the kitty condo. Andrew suggested a color for the front door, and I love it . Cannot recommend them highly enough.

James is GREAT!  Recently painted my condo and it looks brand new.  No paint odor, no splots, no paint rivers down the walls.  Reasonable prices and quick as well.  Thanks!

My experience with House Painting, Inc could only be described in one way, FANTASTIC!  I first contacted them initially because of their excellent reviews on yelp where there were more than 120 5 star reviews.  Of the few 1 star reviews, none complained about the quality of the work, only other administrative concerns.  When I sent a message over Yelp, I was contacted back by right away by Mr. Lee, who said that he was available to come by for an estimate the next day, after business hours.  He came on time, and we went on a tour of our home.  He seemed genuine and honest about the work that needed to be done and the work that I wanted to be done.  I felt no pressure to pay for work that was not necessary.  He showed me photographs of the work as it would proceed and gave me a detailed time line of each step and finally, discussed with me the steps that House Painting, Inc would take to protect my landscaping and my property.  He then showed me his documentation for his business, including the A+ rating on BBB, licensing and insurance documents for both his work and his employees.  Mr. Lee has been in business for more than 30 years and had hundreds of letters that customers have written over the years attesting to the quality of his work.  He gave me an estimate right away and was willing to negotiate with me when I had another estimate from another company that was a bit lower than the one I got from him.  They were able to schedule the work within 2 weeks of my acceptance of the bid and there were absolutely no issues with the start date or time.  The two painters who worked on my home were pleasant and professional, who asked me at each step along the way how I wanted the work done; he even repaired my garage door and removed old cables from the high eves! The only “hitch” along the way was at the end during the final walk through, I noticed a small bit of paint on one of the back window screens.  When I went to inspect it, I discovered a small cut.  When I explained to the painters that the windows were new and the cut had paint on it, they took the screen out and had it repaired RIGHT AWAY (as in brought it back in “good as new” condition the next morning)!  Overall, I’m VERY satisfied with the work they did, especially given the condition of my house previously.  I will definitely hire Mr. Lee again for future projects.

We had James Lee House Painting paint 12 rooms plus hallways etc in our home.  They did a fantastic job!

The team was experienced, courteous, friendly, accommodative and neat!  The moved the furniture and our belongings with minimum disruption and cleaned up each day before they left so the house was still functional.

They were talented- the trim lines are crisp- and they did abreast great job.

Gold star for this company.  A pleasure from start to finish.

Thank you for a job well done!

The crew showed up, were very pleasant to have around, cleaned up after themselves every day, took great care in their prep work, which is the key to a good paint job, and even offered to take care of some minor things that were out of the scope of work. The guys always had smiles on their faces and accommodated other trades. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome, the price and team. Call them and get a quote. You will not be sorry.

By the way, don’t be turned off by the old school method James uses to show you their process or letters of recommendation. It’s a book with plastic sleeves full of pictures, letters, among other items. It’s low tech but so is house painting. Just hire him.

I initially looked up Angie’s List for a reputable house painter but the reviews were lacking. Not enough review for me to make a sound decision. It’s a paid service but I just can trust it because they hounded me for reviews on businesses I had looked up but not used.

I turned to good ole Yelp and came upon James Lee House Painting. With the solid 5 stars ratings, I decided to contact the company. James came out to give me a quote. He arrived on time, walked around the property, jotted down notes, showed me his business license and insurance, and left. His office called about 20 minutes later to give me a quote. It was higher than what I had budgeted but still workable.

I couldn’t have James started right away because I was having work done around the front and back of the house. His office called regularly to check on the status. I was finally ready to have James started a week ago. He sent his brother, Sung, to start last Monday. Initially, I was a bit reprehensive because Sung’s English was limited. I got a hold of James and commincated directly with him. It was a bit tricky because his private number was not listed. I had to call his office but he always called back within minutes.

The first day was spent on power washing the wall, filling up holes on the stucco wall and wooden trim, and sealing up the windows. The second day was spent on covering the ground around the perimeter of the house. We picked out the colors and Sung test painted them for us to decide. Painting started on Wednesday through Friday. Sung came back early on Saturday to wrap up the remaining. He was done before my family woke up, a ninja painter.

My wife and I are very impressed with the quality of work. The only thing we regret is the stucco color could have been a shade or two lighter. Other than that, it was very well painted. There was no mess and the paint was consistent all throughout. A job well done, Sung.  I highly recommend James Lee House Painting.

Based on their yelp reviews, I called the company for a free estimate. James responded promptly and came by to provide me with a free quote. He responded via an e-mail that had all the details/documents one would want to get a paint project started. It was extremely professional.
Sandy and the two painters were great! They assisted us in color selection too. They were polite and well mannered. The job took less than the expected time but with the quality outcome one would expect.
There is no doubt that they are the best for the price they seek

James Lee is the man and his team is great. I got several quotes from other painters and James’ was by far the best. Once the work got started, I was blown away by how organized and efficient the team was, and the quality of the work they produced. The place looks exceptional. One great anecdote: I made a bad choice for the color in my kitchen.. when I stopped by the place and saw it one morning, the painters had moved on to another part of the house. I asked the lead painter if they could re-paint it with another color and he did it for only an additional 100$. Best 100$ I ever spent! Highly, highly recommend this company.
