    "We hired Purple to paint the interior of our condo after remodeling and we could not be happier with the results. Working with them was a pleasure, from the initial walk-through & estimating process to the final touch-ups. Everyone was professional, respectful of our schedule and helpful in addressing the unique challenges of our project. Thank you first of all to owners Kendall and Kareem. Conor (sales) was a rock star. He worked within our budget and offered a wealth of knowledge and guidance when it came to selecting finishes and color matching. Both Conor and Jose, our Project Manager were always accessible and communicative. Management and crew all get an A+ for attention to detail. Go Team Purple!"

    "We had a great experience working with Purple Painting on a recent client bathroom renovation! Their team handled both the painting and wallpaper installation, and the results turned out beautifully. They were professional, detail-oriented, and easy to work with throughout the process. As designers, we really appreciate trades who take pride in their craftsmanship and pay attention to the finishing details. We look forward to working with them again on future projects. Highly recommend!"

    "Loved working with Kendall and the team to get our house repainted. They were thorough, professional, and timely. We had to schedule around window installation and they were so flexible and accommodating. The painting team was kind, tidy, and completed the job on time! We are so so pleased with the color and work done- could not recommended them enough. We’re happy to be the blue house on the block!"

    "Outstanding customer service and expert craftsmanship. Purple Painting has done three projects for us and our home is the better for it. They are careful and they care. Once you have them do a job for you, they will become your “go to” painting contractor. A local and family oriented family-run business. Highly recommend!"

    "Hands down, the best painting company in Santa Barbara! I worked directly with Conor, who brings decades of experience, and Jose, who did an incredible job. They went above and beyond to accommodate a last minute project for my clients, completing everything in just one day! The attention to detail was excellent, the lines were flawless, and the pricing was very reasonable. My clients couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend Purple Painting!"

    "Purple Painting was amazing! When we needed help quickly, they stepped in and got the job done lightning-fast. They visited the site, met with our client, and provided an offer they couldn’t refuse. They even worked through the weekend to complete everything on time, and the final result was magnificent. Their team was incredibly collaborative and communicated seamlessly with ours throughout the entire process. We would absolutely recommend Purple Painting to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality painting services. Thank you again to the entire Purple Painting team. Great job!"
