"Great company. The owner, Ken, went above and beyond the call of duty, coming out on a Saturday when we wanted to add a couple interior spaces to the (very reasonable) estimate for painting the exterior of the house. Jesus ran the job and was very accommodating and polite. All the painters were. They made a couple last-minute changes as well, with a smile. I..." Read more

"The negative reviews on Yelp for this company really surprise me. How can it even be the same company? We have used them three times in the last 15 years because they are very responsive, allocate a full crew (not just one guy!) to the job and are very professional. Most recently they did a wallpaper removal and kitchen painting job that really transforme..." Read more

"They sent out their first crew to fix things but all they had were excuses on why they did what they did, I sent that crew away. It took them over a Month to get back around to us but they did finally fix everything to our satisfaction. Very unprofessional, cracks were not textured, they varnished over the dirt on the doors, did not remove plug and switch..." Read more

"These painters are skilled craftsmen. Wow, what a great team of people. We were giving our home a much needed exterior paint job after 22 years and El Gato really came through. For years I have seen coupons for the company and was worried that perhaps they would not do a top quality job as they were always offering discounts. After getting quotes from 5 comp..." Read more

"Like others, I got bids from 3 companies. El Gato was the middle bid, but they were all fairly close. The staff on the phone were pleasant and helpful. The guy who gave me the quote was knowledgable and thorough...and on time. He gave me the detailed quote before he left. The painters did a great job on preparation and application. They did the whole ho..." Read more

"Great Job! Like others, we got 3 bids. El Gato was not the cheapest but I think you need to be leery of the cheep quotes out there. Ken & his team of painters are very professional. Ken makes an excellent presentation; in the package is a copy of his license info on paint colors his quote etc. We were very please with the quality of the work. My husband..." Read more

"I really like this company. They are neat, tidy, on-time, pleasant to have around, and do a good job. Plus, they have put up with our strange schedule of having to divide up the painting into three different stages due to the staged replacement of windows and siding."

"I had to call them twice to get anyone to come to my house to discuss external house painting. After the interview, the representative said he would email me the bid. Nothing ever came nor any follow up communication. They lost out to an equally known competitor."

"El Gato Painting just finished painting the exterior of our home and we are thrilled and soooooo happy with the work them did. The guys who came out to do the job were wonderful, helpful and respectful. They kindly answered all my questions. We had picked out a color and it was not the right one (my bad) but found one that I wanted. Julio went out to t..." Read more

"El Gato just finished painting the exterior of my house in Pleasanton, and I couldn't be happier with the process or the results. I was given an estimate that detailed all of the prep work they would do, which was extensive. The estimator also pointed out that my garage door needed to be repainted, as it was starting to powder, and suggested painting the gu..." Read more

"We called 3 different painters for estimates. El Gato was not the cheapest- but you dont get a good job with "cheap". We chose El Gato in Mt View because we liked the presentation of the estimate, the company has been around a long time. They did an EXCELLENT job!! We had painting done inside the house, and the outside of the house. It looks great- several..." Read more

"They came highly recommended by someone I trust. I had a coupon from ValPack. I was ready to feel the love. The guy never showed up to estimate. Had my cell phone number. Never used it. Must not need the biz."

"Would not recommend this business for it's poor business attitude. We had our house repainted by this company after 4 years since we decided to change our house color. Once they were done, we paid them, but then noticed after the paint dried that on the areas where the trim paint had gotten on the house body dark color, their attempt to "touch up" left the..."
