You’ve read the Reddit threads. Paint drips on hardwood. Furniture moved and scratched. Crews showing up at 10am, leaving at 1pm, then “needing one more day” five times in a row. Cabinets that come back with an orange-peel spray texture that no one wants to look at.
The reason most interior paint jobs go wrong is not the paint. It’s the crew. Who they are. Whether they actually care. Whether they prep, protect, and clean, or just paint.
We’re not asking you to trust us. We’re showing you exactly who’s coming in, exactly what they’ll cover, exactly how the work runs, and exactly what it costs, before we touch a wall.
No subcontractors. No surprise faces. The painters at your estimate are the painters on day one and day five. W-2 employees, uniformed, drug-tested, and they introduce themselves at the door every morning.
Hardwood and tile get rosin paper and canvas tarps. Carpet gets plastic and tarps. Furniture is moved and wrapped, not “covered with whatever’s around.” Pet doors closed, gates respected, daily cleanup before the crew leaves.
Fixed-price written quote. No upcharges. No surprise bills. 5-year warranty on workmanship and materials in writing on day one.
Eight steps. You always know what comes next.
Walkthrough with you, photos, identify scope (walls, ceilings, trim, doors, cabinets if applicable).
See your colors on your walls before the can is opened.
Itemized. No "TBDs." Pricing locked.
Confirm crew arrival, parking, pets, access, areas to avoid.
Floor coverings down, furniture moved and wrapped, masking on baseboards and ceilings.
Cut-in, two-coat minimum on walls, brushed-not-sprayed trim, sprayed-properly cabinets if in scope.
Site cleaned every evening. Door locked. Alarm reset if you've given us the code.
Touch-up kit and warranty paperwork left on site.
Cabinet painting is where most painters fail. The Reddit horror stories aren’t exaggeration. They’re proof of crews who sprayed too dry, prepped too lazy, used the wrong product, and left a customer with $4,000 in orange-peel texture they have to live with.
Here’s exactly what we do differently on every cabinet job.
HVLP fine-finish system in a tented kitchen. Not a $200 Wagner sprayer on the floor. Cabinet doors and drawer fronts come off, get labeled, get sprayed in our shop, get cured properly, and come back perfect.
Degrease, sand to bare wood where needed, fill grain, prime with adhesion bonding primer, sand again, then color coat. Most painters skip the grain fill. That’s why their cabinets look like orange peel.
Premium-grade cabinet-specific products. Cures hard. Cleans up. Doesn’t yellow. Stands up to kitchen use for a decade. Not the same paint we’d put on a wall.
If the finish isn’t what you want, nothing else happens. No deposit lost. No “this is just how it looks.” You see and touch the exact result on a sample door first. Then we start.
Same crew every day. You'll know their names.
W-2 employees, drug-tested, background-checked
Hardwood and tile = rosin paper plus canvas tarps
Carpet = plastic plus canvas tarps plus edge masking
Furniture moved and wrapped, not shoved in a corner
Daily cleanup before the crew leaves
Pet doors closed, gates respected
Optional alarm code held by Cristian only, never the crew
Photos sent to you nightly so you can see progress without being home
Most painters hide pricing until the home visit. We publish honest ranges so you know what you’re walking into.
A budget paint job starts showing wear in two to three years. Then you pay again, plus the cost of fixing what the first crew got wrong. We prep deep, use premium materials, and back the work in writing. You pay once.
Pricing varies with prep needs, ceiling height, color count, and finish type. Specialty work (faux finish, accent walls, dark color upgrades) priced separately. Financing available. Your written quote is fixed. We don’t add charges after.
Getting multiple quotes is smart. But quotes hide huge differences in what’s actually included. Compare every painter on the same five points so you see who’s worth the price.
Does the quote include full surface prep, or just a coat over the old paint? Prep is where most “savings” come from.
Their own crew or subcontractors? Subcontracted crews don’t carry the same accountability inside your home.
What grade of paint? Cheap paint cuts a year off the finish life. Cabinets need cabinet-grade products, not wall paint.
Is there a written warranty? For how long? What does it actually cover? Verbal promises don’t count.
Reviews, license number, insurance, references. Verify before you sign, not after.
If not, you’ll want to know now. That’s why we publish the comparison openly. We’re confident in what we deliver.

Yes. Fully licensed and insured. CSLB License #1071167, $2M coverage, and Google Guaranteed. Everyone on your property is covered, so you carry zero risk if anything goes wrong.
No. Every CG Pro painter is a direct W-2 employee. Same crew every day. Background-checked. Drug-tested. Uniformed.
Most clients aren’t. We send daily progress photos. Cristian holds your alarm code if you give it to him. The crew never has it. Door closed and locked at end of day.
Hardwood and tile get rosin paper and canvas tarps. Carpet gets plastic plus canvas. Furniture is moved and wrapped. We document the protection setup with photos before paint opens.
Premium-grade paint and materials, included in your quote. No cheap substitutes. No mid-job upcharges. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Yes. Doors and drawer fronts come off and get sprayed in our controlled shop environment. Cabinet boxes get sprayed on-site in a properly tented kitchen with HVLP equipment, not airless. That’s the difference between a finish that looks like furniture and a finish that looks like orange peel.
Single-room interiors run 1 to 2 days. Full-house interiors typically 3 to 6 working days. Cabinet projects add 5 to 7 days due to spray-and-cure cycle. We give you the timeline in writing before we start.
The products we use are low-VOC. Most rooms are safe to re-enter within hours of paint completion. We discuss pet logistics in the day-before walkthrough call.
Workmanship and material defects on walls, trim, ceilings, and cabinets. If a coat peels, fails to cure, blisters, or yellows due to product or application defect within 5 years, we return and repair. Free.
We do small jobs. Single accent walls, single rooms, single cabinet refinishes. No minimum ticket size. Pricing is in the same fixed-quote format.
We schedule around you. Pick your window, we hold the slot.
