We hired Tim initially to paint a couple of rooms on our first floor. After getting quotes from several different contractors and checking references we decided to go with Tim Long. Tim provided us with a quote and a schedule and answered all of our questions. He and his team of professionals completed this job early and in a very, very professional manner. They were extremely careful of our furniture and our newly remodeled kitchen. Tim and his team did such an outstanding job that we contracted with him to complete the rest of our house interior, both upstairs and downstairs. Again Tim gave us a schedule and finished the job on time. I must say that this was a most difficult job for Tim to schedule around as we asked him to paint at the same time as we were having our bathrooms remodeled. Tim and his team were very accommodating and really worked out their schedule with the bathroom remodel contractors.
Again Tim and team did an outstanding job of painting the entire interior of our home. We would highly recommend Tim to anyone needing their home painted. You may call us for a reference at any time.
Sincerely,

Over the last few months, I had several contractors doing various jobs inside and outside our home. Tim Long Painting was by far the most professional contractor, and the ONLY one I would unequivocally recommend. Tim's crew painted every inch of the inside of my house (2000 sq. ft.) using multiple colors and types of paint. The entire process was easy and I am extremely pleased with the outcome.
I acknowledge that I was a difficult customer. I put a great deal of emphasis on small details and how a job is finished. Tim and the painters were always responsive to my requests and always polite. The thing that first sold me on Tim Long Painting was Tim's communication, and follow-up skills. Tim was here multiple times throughout the project. I knew he was invested and had control of the project, which really put my mind at ease.
When I get ready to paint the outside of my home, I will once again call Tim Long Painting.
THANK YOU, TIM.
Sincerely,

It's refreshing to find a business based on both integrity and highest quality of work in Southern California. The work that Tim Long Painting did in our home was precise, efficient, and completed on time. Tim took the time to discuss in detail our needs, gave feedback on how to improve on our desires, and then made our hopes a reality. For those who are interested in home improvements completed on time and within budget, our family continues to recommend Tim Long Painting.

From first contact to job complete I knew I selected the right company to paint our home. Tim returned my calls quickly and answered all my questions before and during the job. I especially liked the fact that there were no hidden costs. Everything was quoted up front and at the end of the job, the cost was exactly as quoted. Tim Long Painting is a professional crew that is efficient and clean. Our home looks beautiful and their expertise is evident every time I look at the outside of our home.

Hi Tim,
We wanted to thank you for bringing our Craftsman home back to life. The restoration and repair of the exterior is wonderful. Our house is now the envy of the block.
You and your crew were timely, professional, and easy to work with. Thanks again for a job that was beyond our expectations.

Dear Tim,
It has been a months now since your team completed our home color makeover and we are still receiving accolades from our neighbors. My wife and I just want to say that your team of professionals were very attentive to detail and did a perfect job of painting our home. We were especially appreciative of the care they took to be neat and unobtrusive during the project. Of course we also appreciated that you were personally on hand to oversee the progress and point out areas that needed improvement for your team to pay attention to.
I'm pretty sure that you will receive at least three more customers from our neighbors as they all commented on the quality work your company delivered. Thanks again and feel free to use us as a reference for future clients.
Best regards,

We recently had an interior paint job completed by Tim Long and couldn't be happier. We have high vaulted ceilings and weren't sure what colors would work best since it's such a large surface. Tim helped us select colors and gave us some ideas on how we could use them together to best accent certain areas...and he was right! The result is a home that feels much more comfortable and inviting. In addition, his replacement of our furniture and cleanup was so thorough we had no idea anyone had even been in the house! We're happy to refer Tim to anyone and in fact already have.

Tim Long Painting
Over the years we have used a number of professional services to maintain our different homes in California and Sweden. We recently contacted Tim Long to paint our house in La Jolla. It turned out to be one of the very best decisions we have made. Tim Long gave us a most reasonable quote, and did an excellent professional job. His crew was courteous and performed the several different tasks in a timely manner. Tim's services are certainly unique, and without any hesitation we will recommend him to friends and neighbors who want a high-quality and professional painting job.

Tim,
We decided to have you paint our house because we believed you when you told us that you wouldn't put your name on anything but a superior quality paint job. Well, after seeing the finished product today, we can attest that you are true to your word. You and your crew did a phenomenal job (phenomenally quick too) of transforming our bland new house into a place we can't wait to live in and show off to others. The walls and cabinets look amazing! We are especially grateful for the way You listened to us and made sure everything was done to our liking (down to the littlest detail). We will not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and family.

Thank you for doing such a great job painting my new home. It looks fantastic! I especially appreciate your great customer service. With my house closing late I was concerned that there wasn't enough time to complete the project and you made it happen! Plus, your team was friendly, helpful, and hardworking. I look forward to next time!
Thanks again,

Tim,
The work was done very organized and detailed. It was also done very quickly, in four days, and we did not feel our daily routine was interfered by the painting. After the work was done, your crew cleaned the yard and washed away all the residuals. A few of our neighbors passing by, told us they really like the work. We are very happy with your work and would be glad to be a reference for your work.
Regards.

Tim recently completed a painting project in my home and I am so pleased with the results. I chose Tim first because he was recommended by a friend and second after talking with him I felt very confident that he would do a great job, which he did. I would recommend Tim Long Painting for any of your painting projects.

Dear Tim,
After hiring you to paint the inside of our home two years ago, when it came time to paint the outside we did not hesitate to hire you again. We were extremely glad that we did. We are thrilled with the way our home looks after you and your crew finished. The attention to detail was clearly evident: from the first minute to the last, we felt as if your crew were taking care of our house as if it was their own. They were prompt, courteous, quiet, and talented. When they were done, the yard and walkways around the house were at least as clean as when they started. It was a pleasure to work with you and your company and we would recommend you to anyone interested in making their home look better.
Sincerely yours,

Tim,
Thanks again for the great job you did painting my living room ceiling and refinishing the wood railings on my wrap-around decks. The railings look better than they ever did. You and your crew were very professional, on-time, and did an excellent job prepping before and cleaning up afterwards. I am so happy with the final outcome. I especially thank you for going the extra mile to refinish the badly damaged wood of the railings, making them look new again. Also, your prices were so much more reasonable than other contractors. I also appreciated how you personally oversaw every detail of the job. A job well done!

I just want to thank you for your services. I recently bought my home which was in dire need of a paint job. I searched the internet and found your company. Tim, as you can see from the attached pictures how drastic the new paint changed the look of my home; thank you for taking the time to work with me when I panicked (because of that change). I would highly recommend you to anyone. You and your staff were courteous, on time, and ahead of schedule. Let the pictures tell the story!

RE: Reference Letter for Tim Long Painting
DATE: December 8, 2008
In late 2008, we were interviewing prospective contractor candidates for painting the entire exterior of our house and yard perimeter fencing. Tim arrived promptly for the site visit appointment, was personable, answered all of our questions in an acceptable manner and provided a complete proposal/contract shortly thereafter. Tim also provided us as references, two homes in our neighborhood for which he had completed exterior painting jobs earlier in the year (unbeknownst to us). We visited both homes to evaluate the workmanship and also talked to our neighbors about their experiences.
Our decision to contract Tim Long Painting for our exterior painting job was made based on personal impressions of Tim, the manner and content of his responses to our questions and concerns, the quality of workmanship in the completed jobs at our neighbors’ homes and the very positive feedback on their experiences, and a competitive price quote. We negotiated some of the proposal/contract terms to fit our specific needs quickly and without hassle, and Tim started the job on November 10, 2008 with an estimated completion date (weather permitting) of November 20, 2008.
The work to be performed included site preparation (power wash, trench along foundation wall, patch and repair stucco cracks, repair of damaged stucco, scraping and sanding, caulking of joints, covering/masking/shielding/tie-up of doors and windows, decorative fixtures, hardscape and landscape), installation of some new trim wood work, two separate coats of paint (primary coat and finish coat) to match an existing color scheme, and cleanup (replacement of all soil removed from trenching around foundation, removal of all coverings/masks/shields/ties, replacement of removed seals and proper daily disposal of all trash).
In terms of the day-to-day, Tim and his crew were personable and easy to communicate with. They were timely for daily shifts and checked in to make sure vehicles were removed from areas where access would be blocked due to the day’s tasks or where the vehicle may be blocking their planned activities. The crew cleaned up appropriately at the end of each day. Free access to at least one main entrance to the home was maintained at all times.
In terms of quality, we had zero color issues and zero squawks at walkthrough (which included checking the quality of work throughout and verifying completeness of the clean-up) which is pretty impressive as we are a highly discerning customer who pays particular attention to detail (Tim was forewarned of this…). The job was even completed one day earlier than planned.
Tim and his crew did a great job, provided a high value of service and were truly a pleasure to work with. Bravo!
Sincerely,
Edward J. Kikta and Janice Chiu-Kikta

Dear Tim, It took me three weeks and more than a dozen interviews with different contractors to find you. I am very picky and selective and I like to deal with perfectionists and professionals when I need help for my work. After I showed you the problem in our condominium and asked you a few questions, I decided that I had finally located the right contractor. I was right! You repaired and painted our ceiling so nice that my eyes could not believe it. You and your team are perfectionists! I will recommend you to my friends, my coworkers and any one else that needs repair and painting work. Your personality, accuracy, reasonable cost, and your service makes you a very special contractor. Please let your clients send me an e-mail if they want to know more about your qualities as an excellent contractor. I wish you and your family a healthy and happy life for solving my repair and painting problem. Thank you again.

Not too long ago I moved into a condo that really needed some upgrades. I logged onto a website to post my needs and request some quotes. I must have requested quotes from 5 different contractors. Tim Long Painting was the first to respond and the first to set an appointment with me to bid on the job. Not only did the owner personally come to give me a bid on a very small painting job, but he was courteous, professional and most importantly on time! I hired Tim's company on the spot and set a painting date for the following week. Tim showed up with his crew right on time prepared to begin immediately. I was so pleased with their work! The crew was polite and professional. They worked quickly, quietly and cleaned up after themselves immediately. I would not only hire Tim Long Painting again for myself, but I would recommend them with the highest praise to anyone!!

To Potential Customers' of Tim Long Painting:
I have had family members in the past that were in the painting business, so I know something about painting. When my husband and I started the process of getting bids, Tim was the third bid. I knew he was the company that I was going to hire to paint our inside of our home. When we were walking through our house he knew what had to be done to make the walls look good. We hired Tim Long's Company. We had 4 painters in the house for 6 days in a 4500 sq.ft. house. The job was accomplished as promised. We are very satisfied with the paint and colors. The painting crew was experienced, organized and quite.We highly recommend this company for Interior and Exterior painting. Thank you again for doing what you said you would do!

I wanted to tell you that you and your guys did such a beautiful job that I can't bear the thought of hanging any pictures on my walls, I just want to look at them just as they are. They are beautiful! Thank you again! If I ever have any painting, I will call you. If you would like to use me as a reference, it would be my pleasure. If you want to take pictures feel free.

Tim,
It was a great decision to trust you to paint our home while we were gone on vacation. We returned to a home that looked brand new. The contract included painting all the interior doors and baseboards. Because the new paint on the doors didn't match the window casings, you chose to paint the window trim at your own expense just so it would look perfect when we returned home. Thanks for your excellent work.

Tim,
Yesterday you finished painting the exterior of my house a day ahead of your schedule. Back in January, I had you paint the interior of the house I just purchased basically at a moment's notice due to the sudden arrival of my furniture. If I remember correctly, you finished that job ahead of schedule too. In both instances, you crew was very courteous and professional at all times. I have no problems with the quality of your work and am very happy with the way both jobs turned out. It's a pleasure to work with a contractor that starts and more finishes his jobs on time and more importantly provides quality workmanship.
I have in the past few months recommended you to my friends and will continue to do so in the future.
Thank you and I'm sure will be doing business again as I have some projects in mind and I will be needing your help.

Thank you so much for making our move to California a less stressful experience. You and your wonderful crew helped turn the house into our home. Completing the removal of all that wallpaper from walls and ceilings, prepped and painted the entire inside of the house that had some difficult colors to cover up and did so with such attention to detail in a very timely and professional manner was Amazing!! You are the EXCEPTION in your field. Thank you again for all your hard work.

We are so pleased with the job you and your painting crew did. You started prepping the inside of our house just before the fires began here in Rancho Bernardo. You did such an outstanding job, taping, covering the floors, etc. that we suffered no smoke damage. Unbelievable!! (Especially since two of the houses across the street from us burned to the ground.) You resumed the job as soon as we were able to come back into the area, and made our house a priority. We appreciate the professionalism and personal care you and your crew showed us. This is the second time we have used your company, and we were even more impressed this time around. Thank you!!

Hi Tim,
Thank you for your outstanding work painting the interior of our home. I couldn’t have asked for more. Your crew was timely, professional and left the home spotless.

Next time I need paint work I will be calling you back!

We want to say thank you so much for an incredible painting job on the outside of our home. To quote from your website - "you provided the highest quality work" - by a great staff of painters, who took great care of our windows and yard surfaces, as well as high attention to detail. The work was carried out with expediency, and a sense of pride in the job to be done. We would have no hesitation in having your company back for more work, or recommending you to other prospective customers.

I also appreciate the care you and the guys demonstrated by preventing paint from getting on furniture, floors, and cabinets.Although you finished the job one day early, therewere clearly no corners cut on the quality. I'll be sure to recommend you to friends, and I plan on calling you for my future painting needs.

Tim-
As yet, I haven't rented out the room. My daughter's reception was a week or so ago and I had a house full of company. It was great. They enjoyed the room so much, Tim. You should see how nice it looks with carpet. And every time I walk into the room I appreciate your willingness to give it that last coat. The color is really true. It made all the difference and I really like my choice of colors. This is the second time I have called you to work on my house. Each time the job required more than just painting. Slight remodeling and a little love was in order. You have completed the jobs as I want it done. What a concept. With you, Tim, the customer is right. Both times, my rooms needed to be completed by a certain date and you came through for me. What more could I ask. Your crew always takes care to work in a neat and orderly fashion. You have always kept the rest of my house protected while working. Please share my thoughts. I will be calling you again, for sure.

Thank you for a job well done. It was a pleasure working with Tim and his crew. I appreciated the feedback from Tim in choosing a color and adding crown molding. Tim's crew was punctual, clean, friendly and polite. In the past I have not always had positive experiences with work being done in my place, but working with Tim and his crew was so easy. My place looks great and I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family. (In fact I already have!)

As part of a major exterior renovation project, we hired Tim Long Painting to replace some wood trim, as well as paint the exterior of our house. The work required synchronization with other subcontractors, which Tim kept to the agreed upon schedule. In addition, his crew was professional, cooperative, clean and friendly. Tim was flexible and accommodating with last-minute changes that came up. Most important, Tim and his crew did an excellent repair and paint job on the house and trim. We will hire Tim Long Painting again for our painting needs.

Dear Tim,
I want to thank you and your crew for doing such a great job of installing crown molding and painting the inside of our home. You did the job while we were out of town for a week, and we returned to see a clean, beautiful home. The trust we put in you and your crew to perform the job in our absence was well deserved. Your price was very reasonable and the work quality was exceptional. Thank you again. I will certainly recommend you to others in the future.

Dear Tim,
Thanks so much for your concern and appreciation of our project. I don't know where you come from but I've never had the results with any contractor as I've had with you. Your estimate was very fair, your painting results of our exterior were superb and I really appreciate your crew always being on time. I'm sure you are setting a standard here in San Diego for how contractors should treat their customers. You'll definitely hear from us again for future projects.

It is my pleasure to write this testimonial about my experience with Tim Long. At the end of 2006 I bought a condo that was in desperate need of re-painting inside. In addition I wanted to replace the old acoustic ceiling there. I talked to several contractors. Then my friend recommended me Tim Long, who worked on his house before. And I'm glad he did. Tim was very courteous and always on time. His price was not the lowest but very reasonable. Importantly, he did not change it midway through. He gave me a realistic time estimate and the project was finished on time. I was very pleased with the job Tim and his crew did at my place - very high quality! If I ever need to do this again I would definitely try Tim. And I would happily recommend Tim Long's company to anyone.

I just wanted to thank you for the extra help you gave us in getting our interior to look "just right". You proved invaluable by sharing your suggestions before you applied your craft. You proved that you understand paint application and drywall repair. Finally a contractor that I can rely upon to deliver a great job on a timely basis.

To Whom It May Concern,
It was a great experience in having my house painted by Tim Long's painting crew. Tim was extremely responsive in my inquiry about painting my house, and was able to work with my time frame for completing the project. Tim's customer service is excellent and was very much appreciated, which is something you don't find everyday as a customer.
Tim's crew was very professional and respectful through out the project, not only with me, but also with my neighbors. Due to the height of the house and narrow property lines, the neighbors were very appreciative of the crew's respect for their property while painting the house and having to access their property. I would highly recommend Tim Long and his painting crew if you are looking for a professional, quality, and highly valued customer service experience.
Thanks again Tim,

It was a tremendous pleasure working with Tim Long and his very professional associates! Tim worked hard from the very beginning to understand our concerns and addressed them with great expertise. He and his crew showed up exactly on time every day, and kept our new carpet and furniture spotless. Not only was Tim incredibly kind and upbeat, his crew was also always smiling and polite. We love the results; our place could belong in a magazine! (Well, maybe a magazine for very small places). Thanks again Tim; we can't wait to recommend you!

I was so pleased with the work that your guys did in my condo that when the HOA recently decided to paint the security gates and stair railings, you were clearly our number one choice. Thank you for your assistance with the color selection for my doors which matched perfectly. We look forward to your taking care of our future painting needs.
