Painters in Pacific Palisades
Coastal canyon and bluff homes — and, since 2025, a community in rebuild after the Palisades fire. The work here runs from careful repaints to new-build exterior finishes.
Homes here
Cape Cod traditionals, mid-century moderns, contemporary canyon homes, and the new-build mix coming out of the rebuild. Lots vary from tight bluff sites to canyon estates.
Local exposure
Salt air, marine layer, and direct ocean exposure are hard on exterior finishes. Exteriors here ask for the right primer, the right top coat, and prep that takes the salt into account.
Post-fire rebuild
Fire-rebuild painting in Pacific Palisades asks for a specific sequence — sealing soot before any primer goes on, shellac-based primers where odor is the issue, careful documentation as the work moves from frame to finish, and a finish system chosen for the rebuilt substrate. We work alongside the general contractor and the insurance adjuster, and we keep the paperwork the rebuild needs.
What we paint in Pacific Palisades
Exterior repaints built for coastal exposure, careful interior work, and the prep-heavy approach that gets a finish to actually hold up in coastal conditions.

A note from Paul
The Palisades fire rebuild is personal work for anyone doing it. We sequence the painting — sealing soot, the right primers, documentation for adjusters — so the finished home is actually finished. If you're rebuilding, call me. — Paul
Questions
- Do you do post-fire rebuild and smoke-damage work in the Palisades?
- Yes. Pacific Palisades fire-rebuild work asks for specific sequencing — sealing soot before any primer, shellac-based primers where odor is the issue, and documentation for insurance adjusters along the way.
- How does coastal exposure change the exterior system?
- Salt air shortens the life of cheaper exterior coatings. Coastal exteriors here need a primer and top-coat system chosen for the exposure, not the lowest bid — and prep that takes the salt into account.
- Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
- Yes to all three — California State License Board, classification C-33, license number 713477, carried with bonding and liability insurance. Twenty-five years on file.
- What do you paint?
- Residential interiors and exteriors, commercial work, small-to-mid apartment buildings, and specialty coatings — lacquer, oil-based systems, and lead-paint remediation.
- How do estimates work?
- Written estimates after walking the property. We quote scope, not just square footage — so comparing it to another painter's bid actually makes sense.
- How much does a typical project cost?
- Most projects we run fall between $5,000 and $25,000. Specialty coatings and large-format exterior work can scale higher. We quote from the property, not from a phone call.
