G.S. Custom Painting

Also found Sam & GS Painting thru Unilocal’s reviews. We had contacted a few other painters but the first time we met Sam we were ready to sign up! He is very detailed oriented, concerned about the homeowner comfort and happiness, and goes above and beyond with the quality of paint and workmanship.
When he said they would be at our home to begin at 8am, they were there at 8am. We had our entire place painted, walls, doors, baseboards and trim. Also had some drywall work done in the bathrooms. All the work done was very high quality and the finished product is outstanding!
Like previous comments we agree that it says a lot when employees have been with a company for 12+ yrs, they work like a fine tuned machine. The crew was polite, and friendly. They cleaned up after themselves and on the last day had us check around to make sure we were happy before they left and before Sam returned. Very very impressed, would highly recommend and will definitely use again! Thanks Sam!

The team is very pleasant to work with. Sam and his brother are wonderful to deal with. The painters are very polite and did an excellent job. We have used G.S. Painting on two houses in Oceanside and highly recommend them!

Sam and his brother did a great job painting our living room walls. Sam was professional, on time and very affordable for such high quality work. We were a little unsure on the paint color and Sam helped us pick out the perfect color, giving his professional opinion on how it would look with the other walls in the house and against the crown molding. We could not be happier with the result. We’ll be using G.S. Custom Painting for all our painting needs in the future.

Sam and his team are simply the best in the area. Friendly, on-​time, hard-​working and the work is absolutely perfect every time. We most recently had them paint some raw mouldings in addition to our walls and everyone (including the mouldings installer) commented on how amazing their detail work was. Thank you, Sam!

Sam and his team did a great job on our house. Will definitely use them again. Many thanks!!!

Sam is not only running a great company with a great crew, he’s professional, smart & a super nice guy. He and his crew show up on time, do great work & Sam is very patient with helping with color selection. He wrote up a proposal on the spot, went over all the details, answered questions & continued to explain things & answer questions throughout the process. This is the kind of painter we dreamed of finding to paint the outside of our home– and we found him!!! I’m HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!

I saw the reviews of G.S. on Unilocal in 2013. I hired Sam to paint my company’s office and then my house in early 2014. Fantastic work. Sam is first class and is very organized and detailed. He keeps you informed the whole time. After those two jobs we moved and have hired Sam again and as expected, his team did a 1^st class job.
I highly recommend GS for any painting jobs you have!

Sam painted our baby’s room for us, and it turned out great! He also worked around some minor issues without charging us extra. I gave him a paint swatch to match, and he took it to Home Depot. The first layer he painted (like a primer over a VERY dark red) was too blue for our girl’s nursery, so he took it back to H.D. and they remixed it to a near-​perfect match. When he put the second coat on, you could not even tell it had been bluer. The color match was spot on with the «Barely Blue» shade of gray we had selected.
What I loved about Sam was that he didn’t make excuses, he just jumped on it, fixed the color issue, and did a great job carefully covering every trace of red, with excellent paint lines as well. He was punctual, and cleaned up the work nicely. His prices are comparable with other highly recommended painters in the area, and worth it. We love the result! Definitely recommend.

Sam and his guys were great!!! We will definitely be calling them again for phase 2 of our home painting project.

Sam and his crew are awesome! They just finished painting our entire house and we are more than pleased. My husband and I are neat freaks and we never thought that anyone could paint our house and do all of the caulking and getting behind things, etc to our standards, but Sam’s crew did! We have a lot of white trim and all of it was done beautifully. The price was very fair for the huge amount of work that was done and Sam checked with us on every aspect of the job. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

Hired Sam and his team for a small interior paint job. Was pleased with how quickly he responded to my initial inquiry. His communication was great throughout the process.
He was the only contractor I contacted who actually came to my house to see what the job entailed. GS’s prices were very reasonable and the work was completed to our satisfaction. I’d definitely hire them again, and refer them to others.

Due to the stellar review on Unilocal regarding GS painting, I decided to give them a call for an exterior house painting estimate. I talked to Sam and we agreed on a specific time and date. Upon viewing my home, he promised to email the quote. Guess what, he never did! Never heard from him again. Just like the previous reviewer Esther, he did the same thing to me as he had done to her. If SAM cannot follow through with such a small task, then I get the impression that he won’t be dependable on the bigger task. I find that very unprofessional!

We had Sam and his crew paint our master bedroom and bathroom and were extremely pleased with the finished product! He was able to get the job done just days after giving us a quote and was more reasonably priced than other options we had looked in to. When we have any painting jobs in the future we will definitely be hiring Sam!

Sam is the best painting experience I had had.
Just a real small job, but he was as professional, prompt, reasonably priced as anyone could hope for. His reputation is very important to him and it shows.
As long as he stays in business, he will get all my painting work, and anyone who asks me for a recommendation I will have zero reservation about giving out his name!

Sam and his crew are FANTASTIC! They are very professional, considerate, and talented! If that isn’t enough, they are very fair and reasonably priced! Sam and his crew painted my entire house (four different colors with at LEAST two coats!) and it looks better than I could’ve dreamed. We are thrilled with the service we received from G.S. Custom Painting (so much so that we’ve already asked them back to paint an armoire!) and we HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone who wants their house to look and feel like a dream home. :) Thank you, Sam!

I needed to repaint my house and decided to go with G.S. Custom Painting based on user reviews here on Unilocal,and boy am I happy I made that decision because they did a fantastic job all around; not only did they paint it, but they also spray washed it through and through and fixed all the cracks or crevices in the stucco before applying the paint… They are true professionals and Sam was extremely nice and fair.
Their pricing was very reasonable: $ 1900 for a 3300 sq. ft. home including paint and materials (if you do a little research you’ll find out that they are extremely competitive with their prices).
I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a paint job…
My house looks amazing… I’m one very happy customer… Thanks Sam and God Bless!

Sam is a perfect professional. On time for the quote, he gave us a very good price compared to others. And the others were very impressive as well.
He worked in our small job (bedroom and bath) within a week and he showed up with his crew, told me it would be done in a day and showed up afterward to inspect and personally correct a few inconsistencies that I didn’t even notice.
The finished job is perfect and my wife and I couldn’t be happier.
Thanks Sam!

Our daughter wanted to have her room repainted. I thought about doing it myself but the room was full of furnitures and a lot had to happen before I can even start.
Other than our daughter’s room, we had a few other places that needed repair and touch up. A few corners had dents, a big hole in the wall thanks to our dog, and a few bad patch work by the previous owner. The color was another problem, it was custom and Home Depot was never able to match it close enough.
We found Sam on Unilocal and gave him a call, he responded really fast and gave us a very reasonable quote on the spot. He treated us like big customers even though it was really a small job (one room plus patch and touch up).
Sam and his crew showed up on time at the prearranged date, did everything he said he would do. The workmanship is first class. The color matching was perfect. We couldn’t be any happier with the results.
In short, he took on a small job of repainting a room full of furnitures and did it superbly.
We are happy to recommend G.S. Custom Painting.

I called Sam to get a quote for our paint job after reading his positive reviews here on Unilocal.He called me back quickly and we made an appointment so that he can take a look at the place and provide us with a free estimate. He was on time and very knowledgeable about painting. Our high ceilings and stairways without baseboards were no problem at all and he mentioned that the do this all the time. We also have some Spanish looking architecture on the inside with these round open doorways and rounded corners. His crew was on time and did a great job. The work is performed very clean and everything is done perfectly. His crew was also able to fix some of the drywall that was cut out for a surround system. Overall we are very happy with the outcome and Sam stuck with his original quote. We would definitely use him again in the future and highly recommend him and his crews!

The painting is finally finished in my new place. Wow. That;‘s all I can say for Sam and his crew. Not only is Sam patient, helpful, polite, efficient and professional, the work done by his crew is absolutely top notch.
It’s hard to see what the colors really are but I posted a few photos. One of the difficulties (aside from me not being able to decide what colors I wanted) was the rounded corners on all the walls. No sharp angles that make it easy to paint. The finished work is beautiful, truly Architectural-​Digest-​perfect.
I can recommend Sam wholeheartedly.
