I highly recommend Justin and his team. They repaired stucco and painted the whole house and garage. I received 3 quotes from 3 companies and J Brown was very thorough with their quote as Justin spent over an hour after we walked around the property making notes, etc. Their price was right in the middle. The most important step in painting is prep. They did a great job with covering, masking etc.. The whole team was very responsive before, during and after the job.

2022 10-10 Review J. Brown paintingVery professional, great communication, and most importantly the painters take pride in doing an excellent job. From Ayala James, who first contacted us, Justin Brown, who came over did a walk through & gave us an estimate right away to Robert, who was on the site and communicated with us with any issues we might have we were very happy. Justin even gave us a separate estimate for doing our patio beams in case we might not want to spend that money on them. The crew were efficient and seemed to work very well together. All repairs to wood & stucco were included in the estimate. Paint samples were delivered & verified before the painting was done. Did a great job power washing and cleaning up after they were done. I would not hesitate to recommend J Brown Painting for a big painting project! We are very happy with the outcome.

We had a wonderful experience using J. Brown Painting. They painted the exterior of our home in Point Loma and did an excellent job. Ayala (executive assistant) was professional, communicative, and kept me up to date on all steps of the project. Additionally, Ayala was very helpful with requests for paint sample delivery and choosing colors, which I very much appreciated! Justin was professional and easy to work with. He provided a quote in a timely manner, walked through the project with Robert, and offered feedback and guidance on the project. Robert and his crew were quick and did a great job including stucco repair and touch ups on various areas of the property. We can't say enough good things about J. Brown Painting and have referred them to all of our friends and neighbors! Price was fair and competitive, work quality was great, and customer service was outstanding!

I want to say that J Brown Painting Isn’t going to be your least expensive option, but holy moly Justin and his crew were worth every single dollar. Don’t look anywhere else, you got what you pay for, we made that mistake prior to Justin and his crew coming in and fixing another’s mistake. Justin was right on time for his appointment and had such great confidence. Robert, their supervisor, was so professional and made sure to keep the job site neat, tidy, and he was so kind and professional. I was skeptical at first when they told me the timeline to have my project completed, but they had ALL of my kitchen cabinets and 3 bathrooms with all of the cabinets and walls painted in 3 days!! Justin, Robert and the amazing crew at J Brown…THANK YOU. You have made a customer for life.

I am reposting my review of this fabulous company because my initial review never showed up.This company did an amazing job! Justin is great and has a fantastic crew! Robert, the on-site manager, is flexible, extremely helpful, and knowledgeable. And Aaron, oh Aaron, the office manager, is absolutely fantastic, he keeps all the wheels rolling. You won’t be sorry if you hire J Brown Painting for your project, I assure you! Don’t bother going anywhere else, this is the company you want to hire.

The J Brown Painting team did a fantastic job painting my wooden cabinets white. They look brand new! The owner Justin is very communicative and spent extra time with me answering questions and setting expectations. All costs were very clear upfront as well as the schedule. The painters were on time each day, professional, treated my belongings with care, and the outcome is flawless. I recommend J Brown Painting one hundred percent!

I just had Justin and his amazing team paint our outdated cherry kitchen cabinets. Anyone can paint kitchen cabinets, but to do it well, it takes a very experienced and knowledgeable team. The finished product exceeded expectations; our kitchen has a new lease on life. The team was courteous and professional and kept the job site clean and orderly. In addition to the cabinets, J Brown patched drywall, painted two rooms and repaired and painted a set of outside stairs. The quality was consistent throughout. I highly recommend J Brown Painting if you are looking for a high-quality job.

I had reached out to J. Brown Painting to update my kitchen from dark walnut to a brighter white finish. I cannot say enough great things about the entire process. Justin was very responsive, providing an estimate almost immediately, and we had the contract and start date set within a matter of days. The foreman, Robert, and the rest of the crew were punctual, pleasant, and efficiently got the job done. The overall paint job was flawless and I am extremely happy with the final result.

I'm a first time home owner. I selected J Brown because of the personal and quick response when I asked for an estimate online. And they were the best estimate too!They did a great job. Half of my cabinets were new and unfinished, and the other half was old cabinets, in okay shape. J Brown Painting did an awesome job painting them and finished in the time they quoted.I couldn't be happier with the results. As friends or family see them for the first time, it is always....wow! Thank you Justin, Robert and the team.

I reached out to J Brown Painting since I wanted to repaint several rooms of my condo. This definitely wasn't the cheapest bid, but I didn't want to go with the lowest bidder when it comes to my place. The responsiveness, scheduling and receiving a bid was an easy process to follow and made this painting company that much more worth the extra expense. I highly recommend using this painting contractor if you want a nice finish and quality work. I was squeezed in on a weekend, and I got the job done ahead of schedule thanks to Robert and two additional painters coming to paint.

The experience of working with Justin and his crew could not have been any better. Justin was personable, quick to respond, knowledgeable, and very professional. He was able to get the liability insurance for my condos HOA, where as other prior contractors were not able to fulfill it.My condo came out absolutely phenomenal after they finished painting. The trim came out very crisp and the colors Justin recommended truly transformed my condo. I highly recommend Justin and his company, and look forward to doing business with them again in the future!

Justin, the owner of J Brown Painting, is an extremely professional person. He answered all of our detailed questions, worked with our HOA, and kept his crew safe. His foreman, Robert worked with the team everyday overseeing all the details of our specific painting needs, discussing each portion of the project with his crew and keeping everyone safe. Our building demanded high standards, teamwork, specific painting details which included high railings, trim, doors, fencing, gutters/downspouts, and rooftops. The building looks brand new, absolutely fantastic! We will always use Justin...J Brown Painting and his team anytime we need painting!

I am a carpentry and painting contractor that worked on the same job as J.Brown Painting and I was very impressed with Justin and his crews ability to work together and communicate. They took every precaution to protect the homeowners possessions from overspray and I could tell the homeowner felt very relaxed the entire time.

Justin was recommended to me by our contractor who remodeled our condo a year and a half ago. He obviously thinks highly of Justin's work, and now, so do we! Justin is a professional. He & his team are very detail oriented, not to mention friendly and a pleasure to work with. He painted all of the cabinets throughout our condo and we are amazed with the transformation. Thank you Justin!

Justin is an honest and high quality painter that I have recommended to clients on a number of homes I have sold. He really blew me away on one home in particular recently in Point Loma. A beautiful home that had high ceilings, unique trim work, and required strict attention to detail. He did such a great job and finished on time. I highly recommend J Brown Painting.

We had the BEST experience with Justin (via personal referral and honestly thank goodness) as we just purchased our first home and didn't even know where to start with getting our walls re-painted!Not only was he so quick to respond, give us an accurate quote, and get the job done quickly, he also went above and beyond with suggestions of paint colors, fixing some windows that needed a little TLC around the edges, and made sure he face-timed us and sent picture of everything prior to finishing the job.I was so nervous to find the right painters, especially doing it remotely in the time of COVID, but can't say enough great things about Justin and his team. Thank you SO much Justin! Our place looks great and we are so thankful we found your team.If you're looking for a paint job in San Diego this is your place! I promise.

By way of a personal referral, Justin painted most of the inside of our first floor. We couldn't have hired a better, more professional painter. Justin ain't the cheapest but if I wanted cheap I would have handed a paint brush to my wife.My wife comes from a family of painters. So she's picky with paint. She looked at Justin's work tonite and said "I sure did pick out some good colors." I said "You're right dear but it was Justin who took those colors and made our walls look great."If you're looking for a good painter, Justin is your guy. He takes painting seriously and does a great job. Thank you Justin.

Justin and Jeff were so great to work with. When getting the bids Justin was the most responsive. We hired them to paint our deck and cabinets. They were very patient with us during the process since we were not sure on the color for our deck. The end result is great. They are super nice, professional, always on time and got the job done when promised.

And couldn't be happier. :) Same nice, professional guy doing an exceptional job!It's hard to find a good painter in San Diego. Justin is everything you'd want in a contractor: timely, friendly, dependable, and affordable. And clean! We worked with him to paint the interior of our old home, plus the kitchen cabinets and recently had him clean the windows of our new home. We plan to use him again to paint the inside and exterior of our new home soon too. Highly recommend!
