Exterior Home Painting

David and crew stained my wooden garage door last year and I was so impressed I had them return this year to paint the wooden siding, brick and trim on the exterior of our home. All surfaces were painted with great attention to detail. The crew worked professionally and in a timely manner. I would use Barracuda Painting again and would recommend them to others.

Paint kitchen, living and dining room, ceiling too!

This was the second time we contacted Barracuda. David quoted us a great price, and along with his crew, the painting was done in one day...amazing! We are thrilled with the results, thanks David.

Interior painting

We used David last fall to paint our garage door and it turned out great! Recently we hired him to paint the interior of our house and David and Dan did an excellent job! They are extremely hardworking and the workmanship was top notch. We would definitely not hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anyone! T&P Howard

Paint upstairs level of house.

David and Barracuda Painting did a great job painting the upstairs level of our rental property in the Evergreen area. We were running out of time with renters moving in at the end of the week. David responded immediately, we met at the home within the hour and I had a cost estimate by the second hour. It only took them two days to complete the work and they did an impeccable job. I would recommend Barracuda painting for all jobs, big or small.

Kitchen cabinets painted

We have used Barracuda Painting on 2 previous occasions and didn't hesitate to contact them again, this time to paint our oak kitchen and bar cabinets. The cabinet doors were removed, painted and new hardware installed, all in a timely manner. Our dated kitchen was transformed into a more modern looking kitchen!

Interior painting

The price is right. The work that Barracuda Painting completed was exceptional!
Not every job is a DIY. Their efficiency and professionalism proved it to me. Would easily recommend David's work to neighbors.

Second paint job in large living room and hallway

We have had Barracuda do two paint jobs for us, this is a review for the second one. This time we were painting our large living room, kitchen, and a couple hallways, including the trim. We got about 5 quotes, and David's was very competitive. Some of them were estimators from larger companies and came with larger quotes. I also found it a bit weird not getting to meet any of the person(s) doing the job at the quote. Some other quotes tried to upsell with pamphlets with things I did not care about. In the end, there was another quote that was slightly more competitive. I asked David if he was willing to match it and he said yes. Because we knew David's quality was great from a previous job it made going with him a no-brainer.

David was friendly and professional like the last job, and did a good job with covering furniture and cleaning. We are really happy with how everything looked. At the very end, I paid in cash and accidentally overpaid by about $100. David pointed this out, which I thought was extremely honest of him (I ended up giving him a small tip for that). David is a very likable person.

Touch Ups Required to Prep for Home Sale

We needed some minor touch ups throughout our home to prepare it for sale. David responded to me the same day I contacted him and came later in the day for a quote. He came the next day and completed the job quickly and to perfection! His price was very reasonable and he was very personable. He very quickly assessed what was required and didn't over scope/quote the work that needed to be done. A very honest, no nonsense contractor is hard to come by and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Barracuda to anyone! Thank you!

Wall, closets and trim painting

I found Barracuda through Homestars because of the great reviews. We wanted to have our new home painted right away after possession, but did not have access to the house, so David provided us an estimate based off the floor plans and photos. On the first day of painting, when David was able to see the house in person, he made a suggestion to improve the looks of our baseboards. The results were fantastic, the work was done in a timely manner, and our home was left clean. I would recommend Barracuda to anyone looking for a painter.
