EXCELLENT Based on 628 reviews Posted on Beth Smith1 April 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a very positive experience with Zarazua Painting. Our new (old) home needed complete exterior painting and extensive wood repair. The crew was diligent, efficient, and extremely hard working. They did a lot of necessary prep and repaired/replaced all damaged wood. They really went above and beyond. They paid attention to detail and cleaned the site at the end of each day. Our contact Erick kept in touch and insured throughout the project that we were satisfied with everything. The work was excellent – the house looks amazing - a total transformation! Would highly recommend.

Best regards, Zarazua Painting Team #622Posted on Gregory Montalvo23 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zarazua completed remodeling work for me recently. I've lived in my home 20+ years, and it was in dire need of a refresh. We replaced the entire first floor with LVP. We took down a ton if wallpaper, and painted the entire house. As the appearance improved, there were a number of additional items that looked out of place and needed to be addressed. For each part of the project, Zarazua was clear about pricing and work to be completed. Many of the extra "little details" were completed as part of the job, even though not originally scoped. Payment was not requested until the job was complete, and I was satisfied. tldr: Working with Zarazua was refreshing and I would not hesitate to use them again.

Best regards, Zarazua Painting Team #621Posted on Gregory Herschlag14 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were working with a contractor on a complicated and time-sensitive renovation for my infirmed MIL. Zarazua was a sub-contractor, mostly doing painting and interior work. They were the bright spot in the entire process, working patiently with us in a fraught time. They also did incredible work. Would highly recommend and be more than happy to work with them again.

The price was reasonable, the work was accomplished in a timely fashion, and the painting was exceptionally well done. When problems emerged in the course of the work - the painters explained what was needed to fix it and managed to get it all done on schedule. The painters were also extremely professional and kind. I can’t recommend Zarazua more highly.

Best regards, Zarazua Painting Team #619Posted on Caitlin Mullen26 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We reached out to Zarazua at our neighbor's recommendation. We'd started a small bedroom renovation and were in over our heads. The folks at Zarazua were incredibly fast and responsive and were able to take care of our job within 3 days of our initial contact! I had a calculation error when ordering materials and the crew was amazingly accommodating in coming back to finish when my extra materials arrived. Next time I won't try to do it myself, I'll just jump straight to calling Zarazua again!

I’m already looking forward to hiring them for additional home projects! 100/10 recommend!

Best regards, Zarazua Painting Team #618Posted on Ray Cobb24 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a loft enclosed at the top of our stairs which required extending a half wall to the ceiling and installing a door. We could not be more pleased with the result. Zarazua was prompt, professional and paid attention to every detail. It was clear they cared about the end result as much as we did as the homeowners. The room looks like it’s always been here.

Best regards, Zarazua Painting Team #617Posted on Nikolas Bravo20 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juan Ramon (LVP floor installer), Mario (drywall man), and Juan Damian's painting crew did an excellent job completing the space above my garage. It looks amazing! They were professional and diligent. As a whole, my only recommendation for improvement is communication, but to be fair, I probably could have communicated better myself. However, I am very happy with the space and would consider using them again.
Owner's reply

We’re glad to hear you’re very happy with how the space above your garage turned out and that Juan Ramon, Mario, Juan Damian, and the crew delivered work you’re pleased with.
