I called to schedule a quote and Mike came right out (12/27) to look at what I needed. He said he'd get back to me but never did. I've followed up with a voicemail and an email, but I've not heard back. I understand if they don't want the work, but an acknowledgement and a "no thank you" isn't too much to ask.

Steve, Brian, and the crew were a joy to work with. My house looks presentable again. Thanks!

We had a great experience with CSP. Brian Kennedy helped select the quality of paint which he expertly applied. His work was neat, clean and timely with great attention to detail. He did the trim, doors and walls throughout our 2400 sq. ft. home. We remodeled several rooms and our GC and building manager had high praise for the quality job.

Steve and his crew painted our new siding and trim 3 years ago. We were very pleased with the excellent results and will certainly call on him again in future for painting needs. Steve and his staff were courteous and professional at all times and it’s gratifying to know that there are experts like CSP out there that will provide quality work at a reasonable cost. Steve’s helpful suggestions are backed by experience that inspires confidence and I would not hesitate to refer him to anyone wanting the best results for the best price.

CSP did an excellent job from start to finish. (exterior and deck of single family home) Steve was the only contractor who arrived for the estimate at the time agreed upon. He as open to my ideas and, best of all, had wonderful suggestions of his own. The prep, painting and clean up was 2nd to none and accomplished in the time promised. I could not be more pleased with the job they did and will certainly employ them again in the future. Great thanks to my neighbor who recommended Community Strength Painters to me.

CSP have done an exceptional job on each project; the entire interior and exterior together with staining extensive decks. Preparation and cleanup is very impressive. Steve certainly backs up his service, taking care of problems totally beyond his responsibility. We would never consider using any other painting service in Bellingham.

Our house was in desperate need of exterior paint and Community Strength was our choice after a friend's referral, meeting Steve, and receiving his specific and professional bid. He was educational with great follow-through, service and follow-up. We were even more impressed with his crew. Our house has been transformed and it's VERY satisfying to arrive home to the new look!

in the late last century, my old gray historic house needed a new coat of paint. After following up on referrals from friends, I found Steve Pacheco and Community Strength Painters and soon -- 'lo and behold, my treasured house became bright, cheery, and the pride of the block! Since then, I'm happy to say many of my neighbors have followed my lead! Steve and his crew were terrific -- on time, on budget, paid attention to details, always polite and helpful -- I couldn't ask for anything more. Since my first experience with Community Strength more than a decade ago, I've contracted with them to touch up a few exterior places which were damaged by hard storms, and then to repaint the inside of my house which -- when I look around it -- still makes me smile.

I am very pleased to be able to endorse Community Strength Painters, and the owner Steve Pachaco, as he has proven to be a man of his word, in delivering quality work by painters who take pride in their workmanship. As President of the Parkway Square Condominium Association, I not only have to satisfy myself, but also 23 other condo owners. One year we had all the trim on all our main buildings painted by Steve and his crew, which was a $25,000 + job, and were very pleased. Two years later we had all our garages and the clubhouse painted, and agan were very pleased. In December 2 years ago, when our area was hit with snow and very low temperatures, we had damaged interior walls and ceilings; again Steve with his senior man performed exceptionally well, by repairing and painting to everyoes expecations. I will not hesitate to call upon Steve again. It cost a little more, but it is worth it.

From initial assessment of the job through completion of the last detail, Community Strength Painters provided thorough and professional craftsmanship of the highest quality on our two-story LP siding-clad house in 2005. Steve's supervision of the job and communication with us was impressive. We appreciated his daily onsite presence and review of the work, as well as his advice and explanations. The painters were very thorough in preparing the house for painting; this is particularly crucial with LP siding. Kyle and John were outstanding for the professional and responsible approach they brought to the job each day. They were consistently on time, reliable, personable, and meticulous in their task, and they exercised care and good judgment, all of which resulted in a superb outcome. We valued their consideration of our neighbors and us while preparing and painting the house.

We had heard so many good things about Community Strength Painters through the years, that we decided to try them. Just like the friends who referred them, we were extremely pleased with their quality and professionalism.
