Hi Mark,

Enrique and Santiago left yesterday and I will miss them. Their gentle-sweetness and attention to every detail made these 2-1/2 weeks a pleasure.

Thank you for sending such caring people whose pride in their expertise shows in every inch of their work. They have left something of themselves behind in the beauty that I will enjoy everyday — making my home sing again. These aged 1928 wood windows look better than new and the dark-green has proudly been brought back to life with all its sheen and depth of color with Cysimo’s and your help.

Over the almost 45 years that I have lived here, overseeing two previous remodels and an addition, this has been the best experience ever — and we all know the horror stories that abound. Trust and integrity are qualities that can be in short supply and I appreciate the quality of your steady hand in guiding me through what can at times be a daunting process.

Michelle Shrikian

I wholeheartedly recommend Mark Whaley and his team at Mr. Paint Inc. for several reasons. They arrived for appointments on time, they took samples from my home to ensure that they matched the finish of my other cabinets, they showed up on time to do the work, Mark supervised the work with daily visits, the employees were friendly and maintained a very clean work environment inside and outside my house and the work they did was flawless. Their invoice was very detailed and included a receipt from the paint store for their supplies. They truly were professionals in every sense of the word and that is a rare thing to find these days in the world of subcontractors. Honestly, just showing up on time and on the day they say they are going to arrive and completing the job in a timely manner without any excuses earned my respect, not to mention the quality of the work was outstanding. You can never go wrong with their services and I would use them again in the future.

Mark,

Thank you for another beautiful job. Your team is really very special and so professional in all that they do. I appreciate your flexibility in working with an ever changing schedule due to the window contractor being less than disciplined in performing their work. Always a pleasure to work with you and your team.

Thanks again,

Steve Lewis

Mark:
It is always such a pleasure to have your talented and hardworking crew tend to my interior and exterior painting needs at my Laguna Beach home. We have had an amazing 25 year plus run where you have taken care of all my painting needs both for my commercial building and residence. Your guidance as to the best approach for the painting projects is always right on target and then the execution by your Mr. Paint colleagues is second to none. Whether the job is exterior or interior your paint crew always keeps the work area net and clean and the quality of their work is always at the highest level. I have some additional painting needs and will be calling you soon to schedule when you can begin the job.
Thank you for all your great work for all these years. You and your crew are “true professionals.”

Susan Nelson

Mark Whaley (AKA Mr. Paint), has been managing our interior and exterior painting needs at two Newport Beach residences for 25 years. I would never consider using anyone else. Mark manages every detail, resolving and repairing problems, always considerate of property and personal schedules. His team is never intrusive, always polite and professional.

Mr. Paint is the best painting company in Orange County.

Braddie Dooley

Mark Whaley (Mr. Paint) has been our painting contractor since 1986, painting the interior and exterior of our home multiple times. In addition to being very personable, Mark has been the consummate professional throughout every phase of each project. His attention to detail and his commitment to excellence consistently shine through all aspects of the work. We have been impressed with the quality of his paint crews who have adhered closely to the painting schedules, have conducted the preparations for painting and painted with great care using quality paint, and have cleaned-up the work sites meticulously. (It is noteworthy that some of Mark’s fine workers have stayed with him for many years.) Some projects have required repair or replacement of wood boards, and Mark has managed this as well as the painting. Mark inspects the work closely as it proceeds and has a very thorough walk-through for the final inspection. We have been very grateful to have found Mark and grateful that we have been on his client list for the past 28 years. We have recommended Mr. Paint without reservation to friends who then share our appreciation of Mark, of the company that he has built, and of the work done by his excellent team. Mr. Paint, Inc. is simply the best!

Peggy Cherry

Mark painted my duplex in Laguna Beach 15 years ago and did such a good job he was the first person I thought of when I recently wanted to have it repainted. He was honest and kind enough to tell me the back side of the property that does not face the sun does not need to be repainted. His employees showed up every day on time. They did a very thorough job prepping and also repaired damaged stucco. I could not be happier with the outcome … the new paint looks great. His crew also did a good job of cleaning up. I highly recommend Mark and his crew. They have a great work ethic and Mark’s prices are very reasonable.

Thank you!

Gary Daichendt

It has been my pleasure to work with Mr. Paint over the past 12 years. The quality of workmanship, attention to detail, and professional expertise are nothing short of outstanding. However, as I have stated to you multiple times before, the finest attribute of your company is the integrity with which you operate. As you know, I am not a builder, but having moved several times in the past 12 years, I genuinely appreciate that we can rely on you for both the large and small jobs, whether it is during the construction phase or maintenance phase. Your special expertise in dealing with the unique coastal weather conditions and selecting/applying the correct materials is also greatly appreciated.

Sam and Larry Ewing

I am happy to be a reference anytime and wish you continued success with the business. We have used Mr. Paint for a number of projects at our home, both interior and exterior. We keep coming back because Mark is great to work with; he really cares that we are fully satisfied with his work. He is responsive and honest (our last job came in under budget). His workmen are professional, courteous, efficient and neat. Highly recommended!

Laurie and Dave Lane

Hello Mark — Thank you for the opportunity to share with you our great appreciation for the excellent work performed by you and your staff on our recent house painting adventure. You came highly recommended by our contractor… and we quickly learned the reason for his enthusiastic referral. Your prompt return phone call to our inquiry was just the beginning of the most professional and pleasant painting experiences we have had. Your estimate was easy to understand as it delineated the various projects under consideration. Given that we were under a tight time frame, your ability to begin the work right away was particularly valuable to us. Then when Pablo and Daniel showed up and began their work, we were more than sold on your service. Those two gentlemen were prompt, tidy, detail oriented, friendly and professional. They wanted our feedback along the way and were more than willing to give additional attention to areas that
we felt needed it due to the newly applied stucco. Even though we made changes to the work order along the way, your estimate was right on target and we felt we more than got our money’s worth.

Thank you again, Mark, for a beautiful job!

Jim Warmington, Jr.

Mr. Paint has repainted, repaired and touched up the interior and exterior of my house, including the wood floors, walls, decks, etc for over 12 years. His team is quick, clean and respectful. When they are done, it is as of they were never there. My house looks as new now as when we moved in.

Gary & Debbie Hourihan

We have worked with Mark Whaley (Mr. Paint) for over ten years. We have been extremely impressed with the attention to details in both the interior and exterior painting of our house. From start to finish the quality of the work has been excellent. The crews have always been neat, courteous and professional. Mark Whaley is very hands on, making sure that the job is finished in a timely fashion and that you are completely satisfied with all the work.

We have never been disappointed with the work done and would highly recommend Mr. Paint to anyone who is looking for an excellent painting team! Thanks so much Mark!!!

Judy Lyons

It is my great pleasure to recommend Mark. He and his outstanding crew painted not only the outside (twice) but all the interior. In addition there were shelving and cabinets in the library,hall and one bathroom that now look like pieces of furniture. Beautiful craftsmanship and very durable. In addition to the interior the staircase was stained and painted. Again, it turned out beyond my expectations. My husband and I have known and worked with Mark for several years and hope to continue so in the future. He and his amazing crew are to be admired for their many skills (Mark can match any color!). Thanks for everything.

Mary Jandro

I have used Mr. Paint to paint the exterior of my home on Newport Bay. When Mr. Paint was finished with the job the old house sparkled. I have recommended Mr. Paint to my friends and neighbors who have used him and they also have been very pleased with his work.

Leonard Lyons

Dear Mr. Whaley:

Thank you for stepping in at the last minute and taking on my master bedroom and bathroom renovation. I’m very pleased with the results. I’m impressed by the courtesy and professionalism of you and your crew. The job was completed on time, on budget and with minimal inconvenience. Alex and the other workmen were quiet, neat, and meticulous. The result is a beautiful paint job I know I will enjoy for years to come.

This is just the first of a three-phase renovation project planned for the house. I’m grateful to know a paint company I can trust and respect. I hope you will consider working with me on phases 2 and 3. In the meantime, thank you for the skill, craftsmanship, and integrity you and your team brought to my job.

Sincerely,

Leonard Lyons
