Alamo Painting Comparative Summary

What most people—and even many contractors—don’t understand about professional painting is that much of the real work happens before anyone ever picks up a brush.

Alamo Painting knows that better than anyone, says owner Roger Hill. With its keen attention to planning and research, you’re ensured top quality and years of enjoyment from your paint job, he says. Alamo has also developed a precise formula for calculating the scope of every job, one that accounts for manpower and materials at every stage of the process. So when you get your free estimate—detailed down to the specifics of each surface to be painted—Mr. Hill ensures that you can feel 100 percent confident that it’s accurate, fair, and leaves nothing to chance. There’s no cutting corners, he says; no use of sub-premium products or renegotiating your contract.

Since founding Alamo in 1990, partners Roger Hill and Bradley Horton have committed themselves to quality workmanship and service in every aspect of the business, from preparation through final clean up. Their hard work and love of their craft has made Alamo the East Bay Area's leading authority on residential and commercial interior and exterior painting, explains Mr. Hill.

All Alamo employees are full-time professionals who work for the company exclusively, says Mr. Hill. They attend regular seminars, workshops and training programs to stay up-to-date on the latest techniques and processes.

Alamo’s design professionals are always happy to offer advice, sample paint-outs, and even digital photos of various color schemes. With an array of refinishing techniques at its disposal, they can revive tired old wood on doors, cabinets, stairways or decks. Alamo also offers power washing to remove dirt or mildew. Whatever the painting project, you’ll be impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and commitment to open communication, says Mr. Hill.

Alamo will happily provide a list of references who can attest to the company’s professionalism. Mr. Hill invites you to review their credentials with the Better Business Bureau, the Concord Chamber of Commerce and the Painting and Decorating Contractors Association.
