Introduction

We are an independent business in Austin that has an impressive track record of making people happy. We have many references with rarely a negative review. I'm college educated, do only quality work, and only use background checked partners. I'm tenacious in getting the job right, so all my customers get a great job at value pricing. I'm a Texan grandpa who is trustworthy, considerate, and easy to work with. I've been doing home improvement for 30 years and home improvement is what I love. My partner, Freddy has been a residential and commercial painter for 30 years and is the best painter in Austin, which makes it more fun. I like to take on difficult situations and make them beautiful. I make people happy, and that makes me happy.

Derek and his team did a terrific job painting my condo in a short time period. Whenever there was any small issues Derek took care of it without hesitation. He also saved me money buy making suggestions on paint ant trim. I would highly recommend him!

Derek recently completed an entire home transformation - returning a bright orange bathroom to clean white, fixing walls and painting the entire inside, and turning my mustard-yellow home into a beautiful blue one. From the initial request, Derek was responsive and helped me choose the “right” blue, with pictures and samples. After I thought everything was complete, he even came back to fix a mold spot and repaint it. His attention to detail and quality of work is top notch. Derek was a pleasure to work with - he was efficient and ensured my home and belongings were protected and spotless upon completion. I strongly recommend Derek and Austin Home Solutions for any painting needs!

Details: Home • Two stories • After 1978 • Siding • Trim • Entire building • 2,500 - 3,000 sq ft • No, I would like the professional to supply the paint

Derek responded quickly to my request. My 75-year-old house was in great need of a facelift. He and his team repaired siding, stained the deck, and did a nice job painting the exterior. He addressed everything listed in the estimate and charged a fair price.

Details: Home • One story • Before 1978 • Siding • Trim • Deck • Entire building • 500 - 1,000 sq ft • Wood • Peeling or flaking paint • Trim pulling away from house • Water damage • Cracks

We couldn’t be happier with the work Austin Home Solutions did for us. Derek and his crew were professional, communicative, and efficient. From painting extra samples to help us decide on a color, to keeping the work area clean and organized each night, they happily went the extra mile for us during our job. We highly recommend them and would definitely hire them again in the future.

Derek and his team were easy to work with, thorough, very neat workers (we had new carpet in one room), and the rooms look beautiful. He communicated professionally and promptly and I can definitely recommend Austin Home Solutions. We would hire them again. We had a standard bedroom and small bathroom painted, including ceilings and doors, trim. All work was completed in one day.
