Reuben was great to work with. He’s very communicative and I felt he was professional.
His work is great. He painted a big part of my first floor in a timely manner and did an excellent job.

Reuban did an outstanding job painting two walls in our new construction home. One of the walls was extremely tall and required extra care, but he handled it beautifully. His work was neat, precise, and professional, and the finished accent wall completely transformed our living room.
His pricing was fair and provided excellent value for the quality of work performed. Although he is young, he is talented beyond his years and clearly takes pride in his craft. We would gladly hire him again for future projects and highly recommend him to anyone needing a dependable and skilled painter.
Great job Reuban, you’re doing great things!!

Ruben did an outstanding job with the painting in my home. He was extremely responsive, prompt, and reliable from start to finish, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. His work was impeccable—very neat, precise, and the final result looked absolutely magnificent.
What really stood out to me is that Ruben is not just a painter—he’s very knowledgeable about other aspects of home work as well. He’s clearly skilled with his hands and understands what he’s doing on a deeper level. On top of that, his pricing was very reasonable, and he was flexible and understanding throughout the project.
I would absolutely hire him again. Honestly, anytime I need anything done around the house, Ruben is the first person I’m calling. Highly recommend.

Reuben was a pleasure to work with. Extremely responsive, accommodating working around my schedule, and extremely detail oriented. My pictures aren’t great - but he did a fully color drenched little girls bedroom suite painting ceiling, trim, and walls all different finishes of the same color and finishing it meticulously with a striped accent wall.
Reuben was extremely detail oriented to make sure everything was absolutely perfect and even left the room I feel cleaner than when he got here. I plan to use Reuben for all my painting needs.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
pricing varies greatly depending on a few important factors including what kind of insurance liabilities are associated with the task requested. that being said, i try to price match and provide multiple repair & improvement options whenever possible.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
the first step for me is reaching out to my new customer and gathering details about their project and availability. once i have everything i need i decide whether i can provide a remote estimate or if i will need to go by and take a look in person.
next, i acquire other contact info (a good address and email) and write up a quote for my customer to approve. once the estimate is approved, a deposit may be required depending on the project details.
lastly, i pickup any materials needed to complete the project and get to work! the remaining balance is required once all work is complete.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
the vast majority of my experience comes from hands on work training with a number of contractors much older than myself. i've trained in drywall hanging and patching, electrical work, carpentry, door installation, wall framing, simple plumbing and various other aspects of home improvement.
other training i received was with mastec in 2018. i was trained in satellite dish installation, running coax cable, tv mounting and installing electrical outlets.
