Everything that gets painted, in one place
House painting covers a wide range of jobs: repainting every room before a move, refreshing a stucco exterior that the sun has faded, refinishing kitchen cabinets, bringing a front door back to life, or repainting an office suite between tenants. These services are grouped here because they share the same fundamentals: careful protection, real surface prep and clean, even finish coats.
The Santa Clara Valley sets the conditions. Summers are dry and sunny, which is hard on exterior paint, and winter rain limits the exterior season, so most outside work is planned for the drier months. Homes range from postwar stucco ranches to bungalows with wood siding, and from hillside custom builds to condos and offices, so the right approach depends on the surface in front of you.
Gabriel De La Mora does the quoting and the painting himself. Pick the service below that matches your project, or call and describe what you have in mind.

Interior & Exterior Painting FAQs
What is included in a house painting quote?
It depends on the scope you ask for. A typical quote lists the surfaces being painted, the prep work, the paint and finish, and any repairs. Tell us whether you want ceilings, trim, doors and cabinets included so nothing is missed.
Should I paint the inside or the outside of my house first?
Many homeowners start with the exterior in the drier months, from roughly May through October in the Bay Area, and do interiors any time of year. If you are doing both, tell us and we can plan an order and schedule that works.
Do you paint both homes and commercial spaces?
Yes. Our work includes houses, kitchens, entryways, staircases and commercial offices and corridors. See our commercial painting page for how those projects are scheduled and protected.
How do I choose between painting and refinishing cabinets or doors?
Paint hides imperfections and lets you change color completely. Stain or clear finishes keep the wood grain visible. We explain the tradeoffs for your cabinets or doors, and what the existing finish allows.
