Painting a 157 Year-Old Home in Winters with Farrow & Ball Paint

Project Spotlight

Brooks Painting just wrapped up a 5-week project painting the interior of Park Winters. This home was originally built in 1865, and it still maintains a lot of the original charm. We were hired by SNW Construction in conjunction with the owners of Park Winters to work on this project while the venue closed down from Christmas until the end of January. It's a very popular and beautiful wedding venue, and boutique bed and breakfast in Yolo County. We were honored to have been trusted with this 157 year-old home, and we were excited to add this project to our portfolio.

What started as a smaller project, quickly morphed into painting the entire inside of the historic home. The owner requested we use Farrow & Ball paint for this project. Farrow & Ball is a British manufacturer of paints and wallpapers largely based upon historic color palettes and archives. The company is particularly well known for the unusual names of its products. This was our first time using this paint, and it was a pleasure to work with. The colors are rich and have a depth that is simply amazing. This paint brand is not readily available as their only local store is in Berkeley. However, the staff was easy to work with, and we easily got our paint shipped to the job site in three days.

Our Crew Leader, Mark, did an amazing job balancing the growing scope of work, added staff, and other trades. With the venue being closed for just five weeks, we had to efficiently work alongside many other trades during throughout the project. It is not an easy task to have a nice paint finish when others are creating dust or are in your way. Mark handled the stress with poise, and he and his crew produced a quality paint job.

Juan C., C.H.P.

Hiring Brooks Painting was an easy and professional process the whole way through, from the estimate to the completion of having my very high walls edged, where I was unable to reach them. Crew Leader Eric was prompt and super capable, which was a relief since he had to maneuver and climb a very tall ladder. He was also in the process of teaching a newer painter and I admired his positive and encouraging manner. In addition, he was willing to respond to my requests with ease. No regrets here! The edging looks amazing and only took 4 hours to complete.

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!

Bud was always available and extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to go that extra step and also explain things thoroughly.

I wanted to have my kitchen cabinets painted but knew that that was a job that required skill and expertise. I called Brooks Painting and the experience from start to finish was perfect! Everyone I dealt with was personable and good at their jobs. They spent time answering questions, explaining the exact process, and did the work precisely as promised. They even did a few other small jobs (repairing and painting 2 water damaged ceilings) to perfection. And everything was neat and clean when they left! And the cabinets – better than I could have hoped for. Esteban is a master craftsman who was meticulous in every aspect of his work. The finish is smooth as glass with no imperfections. I couldn’t be happier!

We chose Brooks Painting based on their excellent reputation. It was an excellent choice! We had them do a complete exterior and almost complete interior painting of our two story house. They were done separately, while we were out of town. We are very pleased with the quality of the work. They even fixed up a few mistakes made by a crew that painted a portion of our interior ceilings a month prior (removal of asbestos popcorn ceiling), at no extra charge. Cleanup was great, also. They repaired some dry rot that was uncovered (extra charge, but worth it), and they even moved furniture back into place as well as put back the curtain rods that I had taken down, which wasn't expected. I highly recommend them, and will use them again for any future paint jobs.

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!

Mark and the team from Brook’s Painting are exceptional at their jobs. We recently renovated a 5000sqft home and they did all the painting. Their attention to detail and investment in our project is so appreciated, and we knew we were in good hands with them. The value they add by identifying issues, making suggestions and going the extra mile to deliver quality work and make sure we are happy with our home is such a breath of fresh air. I would hire this team and company for any future work in a heartbeat and can’t say enough how amazing they are!
