DYI Dilemma - Do it yourself or bring in a professional?

This year has been a different year for us all. 2020 has forced homeowners specifically stuck at home, staring at their walls, ceilings, trim, cabinets, or maybe even all the above. Some have decided to tackle the projects themselves, while others have sought out the help of professionals.

Which category have you fallen into? Do you have especially tall ceilings? Do you have so much trim, that the thought of cutting around it makes you dizzy? Did you try to paint the wall yourself and now you can't stop staring at the crooked lines and bleeding over of colors?

We have all been there. A truly professional paint job takes time and skill. It takes experience. And that is why Brooks Painting has been around for 24 years. Whether you are looking to have one-bedroom wall painted, or an entire home, we are here to help. We can even help you choose your color or colors. Give us a call and schedule your free consultation today (530)753-5074. We service Yolo, Solano, Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado counties. You can trust Brooks Painting to make your project beautiful and long lasting.

Brooks did a fantastic job on our exterior and interior paint jobs. Quality was high, price was reasonable, and the team was extremely professional and detail-oriented. Mark was our crew lead and the team performed a number of exterior wood repairs, a door re-stain, interior and exterior painting. Mark clearly takes a lot of pride in his work and went above and beyond to ensure the work was high-quality, including finding exact matching siding to fix dry rot, and performing minor repairs that weren't even included in the quote. He and the team were all consistently positive and personable, joking with each other throughout the day, while also genuinely complimenting each other on the quality of their work. It was great to see, and that positivity definitely showed through the work they did. We couldn't be happier with the end result.

The crew is as neat and reliable as the actual painting job and paint used. No boom boxes!! Cordial staff spoke English. The crew got along with each other and worked as a team. The actual finish is / was beautiful. We would like to use Brooks again!

Very professional, I appreciate the time they took to make sure everything was taken care of for my house! I really liked that Jaime stepped up and told me not to paint my front door like the house and then chose a color that worked great. Thank you!

Chris and Gabriel were amazing. Corey was patient and helpful in answering questions and while I decided on colors. The office was easy to contact and had good follow-through. Thank you so much to Brooks for a job I could not possibly be happier with. Feel free to use me as a reference!
