Martin responded quickly to my ad and set an appointment for the same day. He told me exactly what he would do and the price was great! As promised, he completed the task in one day and left the area cleaner than when he started. I will definitely recommend him and use him in the future. P Howard

We moved into our home and soon realized the flippers repainted our home in the shoddiest manner possible. The interior was painted with flat paint (looked good initially but was the worst finish possible to have used as any touch or mark or effort to clean it resulted in streaks, marks, stains, etc.) and the originally sand colored exterior was covered in a single coat of white resulting in a dull/dingy effect that worsened over time. Martin and his Desert Straight Edge crew repainted the interior of our home and garage in a beautiful eggshell finish, gave the entire exterior of our home, backyard walls, fence and front yard walls a fresh coat of brilliant white paint and redid our trim, doors, window sills, gates and mailbox in the new colors we picked out. They also gave our garage concrete floor an epoxy coating. Three years later and we still get compliments from neighbors and passersby.
In addition to the the beautiful final product, Martin and his crew are extremely efficient, punctual, friendly, personable and professional.
100/100. I highly recommend Martin his Desert Straight Edge crew!

Martin has completely painted 2 houses for me. He is exceptionally creative, understands color - and most of all provides a quality finished product. He and his team are totally trustworthy and professional.
