About
Hi, My name is Darren West. I am a professional painter and a high level get it done man. I have been painting for 20 years and have extensive experience with interior as well as exterior projects. I also update cabinets and have knowledge with faux installations as well as being able to fix drywall and repair wood and stain projects. PLEASE DO NOT CHOOSE ME IF YOU JUST WANT TOUCH UPS DONE!! I have many clients that trust me with the keys to their home and some I have been with for so long I have seen their kids grow, which has basically made me part of their families. I complete my projects in a timely and neat fashion. One of my motos is to leave the job site cleaner than when I showed up. I have a very high attention to detail and have worked in very high end homes that can be nothing less than perfect. I am trustworthy and can be trusted to work in your home without supervision and always be trusted to lock up and turn on your alarm if need be. I look foreword to hearing from you and working with you and your family..

I can’t say enough good things about Darren! He is a perfectionist, and incredibly hard worker, treating every project like it’s his own. We have a large and older redwood deck with many boards/areas that seemingly had different color stains applied over the years. Darren stripped and power washed the deck, then sanded where necessary to make the wood uniform; he then applied a great stain/sealer he’s used over the years. Our deck looks better than it ever has! I recommend him HIGHLY.

Darren was a such a pleasure to work with. He was responsive and professional and trustworthy. He did an amazing job re-staining our deck, and was communicative, thorough, and flexible throughout the process. Plus, his rate was reasonable. Highly recommend!

I hired Darren for a long-overdue cleaning and oiling of a hardwood deck, along with a bit of sanding. The curveball was that I wanted to prioritize minimizing environmental and health risks over pure aesthetics, and for me that meant researching some less common options. We ended up pressure-washing with just water, no cleaner at all, and using Outdoor Defense Oil from the Milk Paint Co., which is a combination of tung oil and pine solvent. It took some joint research and a good deal of discussion to reach those decisions. Even though these materials were not part of Darren's usual repertoire, I appreciated his experience in helping think through what would work, and most of all his openness and eagerness to try them. I also appreciated his expertise and professionalism in doing the work and having the right tools for the job. It would have taken 10x longer and/or caused much collateral damage if I had tried this myself! I would strongly recommend Darren.

We have a large redwood deck and awning that needed sanding and painting. Darren did a fantastic job on the project for us, and the deck looks wonderful now. He was even able to fix some corners that had been chewed on by a dog. He also sanded and restained our teak patio set for a small extra fee. Our deck looks great again and I will definitely call on him in a few years when we need to do it again, as well as for other interior painting jobs. He's also a really nice guy and easy to have around doing work. Thanks Darren!
