Phinney Ridge Painting

We hired Phinney Ridge to clean and refinish the wooden soffits of our mid-century home. The process turned out to be more complex than they thought, but they stuck it out and completed the project with no change orders. PM Jarrod and lead painter Roberto were excellent communicators throughout. It looks great and feels like an excellent investment in the restoration of this home.

This was our third interior painting project working with Phinney Ridge. Previously we did ceilings, cabinet work, and this time we got two office/bedrooms done and a large theater room. Every time, the crews have had strong attention to detail and the project managers/estimators have been very nice to work with, so we hired them again. Falco, who was the painter on the project, did a great job of the rooms and was very efficient. I'd recommend them for paint projects in the Seattle area.

From our initial estimate meeting to final completion, we were very happy we chose Phinney Ridge Painting for our exterior painting project on our 1937 home. With almost 90 years of paint on our cedar shakes, we thought we might have to replace the siding on our house. Phinney Ridge assured us that we shouldn't touch our virgin cedar and that it was in good shape beneath all the paint. They were able to shave the paint off in the places that looked rough using all the proper safety precautions. Then their carpentry team was able to fix the very few places that did indeed need replacing. Finally, their painting team did a beautiful job. Everyone was communicative and friendly and they finished our project in the time promised. We highly recommend them.

We had our back decking and two gates into our yard replaced, and some repairs done on our basement windows by Phinney Ridge Painting. The crew was easy to work with and the quality of the work was excellent, especially Wesley's precise deck replacement. We have contracted with them for additional work. We wholeheartedly recommend PRP for exterior work.

Phinney Ridge Painting did a fantastic job painting our house and handling the small carpentry job that went with it. The prep crew, Vidal and Zaria, did a great job being careful and thorough. The painting crew, Poli and especially Irvin, were awesome too and they made our house look incredible. Julio was our carpenter and he took care of business, no fuss, no muss, no bother, even though our older house threw in some surprises. We are very pleased!

Phinney Ridge Painting is really good. We have a 100 year old victorian in ballard that had been through multiple paint jobs of dubious quality. We had the exterior fully repainted (taken down to bare wood in many parts). They also scrubbed down our decks, redid the porch paint, and helped restore our antique front door.

On the painting side, erica and her crew were probably one of the most meticulous and thorough contracting crews I've ever watched. They came through, did an _amazingly_ thorough prep job around the entire house, fixed/replaced up rotted wood everywhere, and then came through again to prep, tape, and paint. I swear they worked overtime on multiple days getting things just right, were always friendly, and worked around our comings/goings with kids etc.

Complementing them on carpentry side, Nick and his team were super thorough and thoughtful. They even pointed me at a possible ant incursion and stair safety issues which they noticed while working.

Coordination was also top notch. Both Ryan M and Ryan A are responsive managers that are on top of quality with an eye for detail.

As others have said, Phinney Ridge painting bids higher than most, but the work you're getting is a different level.

It's rare to pick the higher end of multiple bids and then walk away thinking "wow... given the work that is being done, I think I actually got a deal."

That happened here.

If you're looking to get things done right, Phinney Ridge Painting is a good company.

Thank you for taking care of our house!

These folks were wonderful to work with and did a great job on our house. I’m especially grateful to the teams that prepped, repaired, and painted. They all went above and beyond while they were working and left the place cleaner than they found it. Thank you!

I had been told that Phinney Ridge Painting was really good. After having my kitchen painted I think they are better than that. They are excellent. The job was started and finished as scheduled. My kitchen turned out perfect. I will definitely use them for my next painting project.

I am new to Seattle and looking for a painter to paint the front door of my new home. Phinney Ridge couldn't get to my job for awhile and referred me to Jason Yim at 20/20 Vision Painting, who was able to work me in sooner and did a wonderful job.

Five stars all around... Always on time, super friendly, and they put so much work into prep that the final look came out great.
They won't be your cheapest bid but will probably be your best work.

Excellent work! Our painters, Noah and Colin ,were skilled, responsible, and delightful to have on site. And, Luis managed the project flawlessly. A terrific experience with a great company.

We chose Phinney Ridge Painting (PRP) despite not being the lowest cost because of how they described how the job would be done, in particular regarding dealing with lead paint.

They started in the early spring of 2025 prepping my house. They paint-shaved to remove all of the lead paint and did tight lead abatement control. They went the extra mile to allay concerns of our neighbors who have an infant.

They came back in dry weather to do the painting using top-of-the-line quality paint products sourced from different vendors. The primer they used (XIM Peel Bond) is a special formulation I was not familiar with that seemed to do a really good job and a high quality product.

Throughout the whole process, everyone at PRP was pleasant - the estimator, Ned; the project manager, Ryan; and especially the field crew Javier & Evan (my spanish improved). Javier & Evan were very pleasant and did excellent, detailed work. They kept the job site well-organized and clean.

We are very happy with our newly-painted house!

Phinney has been helping us with our craftsman home since day one. They are committed to meticulous paint work. Our latest project was exterior - front door varnish, corbel repair, shingle primer/repaint and window trim. Our home looks beautiful! Grateful for this team of hard working folks who take pride in really great work. Thank you Ryan, Luis, Colin, Noah!!

We had a great experience from bid to the completion of the project. Friendly service and top workmanship. They are obviously busy for as reason.

Phinney Ridge Painting completed an exterior paint job for us this spring and our experience was fantastic from start to finish.

We found every member of the team to be kind, communicative, and experienced. They had exceptional attention to detail and the finished product exceeded our expectations.

We will absolutely be using Phinney Ridge Painting again.

Phinney Ridge Painting did a great job on our recent exterior house painting project. Although they were not the lowest bid we received, we felt confident in their communication and presentation, and that confidence was rewarded throughout the process. Simon provided a thorough and clear estimate, Israel began our project then handed off to Jarrod seamlessly, then Nacho, Juan and Fernando executed the job skillfully, always cleaning up our property at the end of each day and being very polite and remarkably unobtrusive. Phinney Ridge matched our existing colors with ease and made some good recommendations for our cedar shingles that should make them last a bit better this time. We highly recommend them and hope to work with PRP in the future!

Phinney Ridge Painting did an amazing job when they took on our 1926 home. Both the paint and carpentry teams were presented with a wide set of challenges including years of lead paint to manage along with several critical repair projects. We knew buying an older home a year ago would be full of discoveries, both good and bad, and when new challenges were uncovered, Phinney Ridge painted provided sound plans and clear communication on each set up the project. They graciously accommodated our shifting timeline due to weather and color selection challenges with outside consultants. When the dust and paint settled, the neighborhood ur in love with the new color and life brought back to this home. Thanks to their craftsmanship and professionalism, this house is on track to last another 100 years.

From the get go to the end we experienced competence from Phinney Ridge Painting over the course of three projects. Their communication skills and work detail will bring us back when we next have a need for their services. They even patched a hole in the ceiling that occurred after the project was done, and throughout went beyond the strict letter of the contract to make sure a quality job was done. They do it right.

Phinney Ridge Painting uses experienced, friendly crews that do a great job. They painted my house beautifully, were efficient, and informed me of what to expect every day. I recommend them!

I would highly recommend working with Phinny Ridge Painting. They did a complete restoration of the old wood siding at my house and it looks amazing. Erica was my lead painter and her and her team are just fantstic. Ryan was my project lead and he is also fantastic to work with. Really high level of customer service, attention to detail, and craftsmanship.

I couldn’t have asked for an easier process and a better outcome for our interior painting work that Phinney Ridge Painting completed in record time. We had days to complete the painting of our new living space before our move was scheduled and they finished earlier than promised and did an outstanding job. The team was wonderful and responsive, with an eye entirely on quality control. I would not hesitate to call on them again!

As President of the 1300 Alki Condominium Association, I’m pleased to share our strong endorsement of Phinney Ridge Painting Company. Our Association has engaged the Company for two separate interior painting projects within our building, and on both occasions, we were thoroughly impressed by the professionalism, efficiency, and quality of their work.
Sam Bennett-Cumming, who co-owns the company, was our primary point of contact and provided clear, detailed proposals and scopes of work for both projects. He remained directly involved throughout, ensuring the work was carried out exactly as specified. The projects were completed on schedule, with minimal disruption, and to a standard that exceeded expectations.
Many residents - including myself - were so pleased with the results that we hired Phinney Ridge Painting to do additional work in our individual units. The feedback from our owners has been unanimously positive, and it’s clear that the team takes real pride in what they do.
We would not hesitate to work with them again and highly recommend Phinney Ridge Painting Company to any property owner or association looking for dependable, high-quality painting services.
Sincerely,
Robert Van Siclen
President, 1300 Alki Condominium Association

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Phinney Ridge Painting! They were easy to work with, extremely responsive, and very friendly. Even when I second-guessed my paint color choice, they were patient and supportive throughout the process. The crew was also very respectful, thorough and kind. I would highly highly recommend them! and will definitely be using them again the future.

Phinney Ridge Painting was recommended to me by a personal friend that had the interior of their house painted recently. I have been very happy with the service. The first phase of the project was to paint my living room/dining room and Luis and Noah did a great job, even moving the furniture. Then I had new carpeting installed. The second phase was to paint the kitchen and back entry, and to touch up any problems from the carpet install. Falco also did a great job and went out of his way to help me re-install the blind in my kitchen window. All of them were very personable and friendly, and competent at their job. They showed up on time and got right to work. I would definitely work with any of them again.

Phinney Ridge Painters painted a bedroom, living room, and bathroom for us over 5 days and did an excellent job. They spent 3 days of the 5 preparing the walls (old house!), and the finish is superb. They also worked hard to meet us on our schedule, coming to the house at 7:50 am as we left with the kids for school and also following instructions on where to leave the keys, etc. We plan to keep painting the house, and we will return to them. We got quotes from three painters, and their prices were super competitive. No concerns at all.....

The workers were very accommodating when working in our main hallway. They were friendly and organized. They left everything clean and beautiful!

Prompt. Efficient. Detail oriented. Clean. The work and crew are above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Phinney Ridge Painting.

An excellent experience in all ways. Quality advice, prep work (wall repairs, taping, protection of furniture and floors, etc.), painting, clean-up, timeliness. Our team in particular was Ryan, Lalo, and Elder.

Phinney Ridge did an outstanding job on our recent interior painting project. The work was complicated by having to protect and paint around extensive trim and many built-in components that were not being painted. They figured out the best way to proceed, took great care with our stuff, and finished in 4 days vs. 5-6 days targeted, with no surprises on the final invoice. Would highly recommend them!

Rarely is one met with great customer service, followed by professional quality work and a quick timing—but in this case—Phinney Ridge Painters achieved all three. They were willing to work with my tight schedule and surprised me by completing the entire job days ahead of time. I appreciated their smart advice on paint applications and appropriate sheens and I was delighted with the outcome in the end. And the small crew of painters were professional and conscientious with their prep and clean-up, which gave me the confidence all would go just as planned—and it did! Having that peace of mind is entirely worth it!

I hired Phinney to demo old acoustic ceiling tiles and replace them with new drywall and a crown. They were a bit more expensive than the other companies I engaged, but considerably more thorough and collaborative in the bidding process. The attention to detail and excellent communication continued throughout the project. Both the Ryans were stellar PMs with regular check-ins to make sure stuff was on track. Special shout out to Sebastian and Javier, who did an impeccable job with the drywall + paint + clean up, worked extra long days to get stuff done on my timeline, and were generally just a pleasure to be around.

Very professional and great quality work. We worked with Jarrod, Adrian, and Elmer and all three were punctual, professional, and respectful of our home. The attention to detail is high and I am beyond satisfied with the work. 10/10

We had new windows put in and had Phinney Ridge Painting do the indoor trim. Lallo did an exceptionally good job, with meticulous work and detail. The color matching was difficult with the existing paint, but Ryan hit it perfectly as well. I am sure the exterior will be equally great...once the weather allows :)
Highest recommendation possible, and very competitive pricing!

We couldn't be happier with Phinney Ridge Painting! Their commitment to quality and customer service is extraordinary. VERY highly recommended!

I’m finally getting around to offering some feedback on our exterior paint job. The delay had NOTHING to do with dissatisfaction with the job, just the weirdness and distractions of the past couple of months.

We so appreciated working with Phinney Ridge on the job. From Ned’s really helpful initial walk about and estimation to Ashley’s color consult. Lalo and Elder were great. So careful, so good at showing up in a timely manner, setting up and cleaning up – and of course the hard work of prep and application. Ryan Arnold and Jemelle – the carpentry crew – were also prompt and professional; made short work of their part. And you, Ryan, were so relentless in making sure the paint job was up to your standards – even with fall rains and the coverage issues over the old paint. (Sorry you have to come back for the Tufflex balcony stuff in the spring – but happy you want to get it right.)

We’re so pleased. I’ve talked to most of the immediate neighbors and some strangers who really like how bold we and you went with the orange/blue/cream color scheme.

Thanks again.

The Phinney Ridge team did a terrific job. Their work was excellent, they were thoughtful, and careful of my home. With these projects surprises happen. I truly appreciated their positive approach to dealing with the unexpected. The next time I have a painting project I will not hesitate to call Phinney Ridge Painting.

We recently used Phinney Ridge Painting for indoor wall and ceiling painting, and they did a phenomenal job. They were meticulous in their prep, ensuring all furniture, windows, and paneling were sealed before the work. The job was great, and the communication worked well with our busy schedules. I highly recommend and will use their services again.

We recently hired Phinney Ridge
Painting to repaint our doors and trim after having our floors refinished due to water damage, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The project manager, Ryan, and lead painter Erica and crew were professional, punctual, and highly skilled, even going beyond the call of duty. They took the time to understand our needs and provided valuable suggestions to enhance the project's overall look.
The quality of their work is outstanding. The paint job is flawless, and the attention to detail is evident in every corner. They used high-quality materials that gave it a fresh, vibrant look. The crew respected our property, ensuring everything was prepped before and cleaned up at the end of the project.
What impressed us the most was their commitment to customer satisfaction. They were always available to answer our questions and address our concerns. The project was completed on time and within the budget we had agreed upon.
We highly recommend Phinney Painting to anyone seeking top-notch painting services. Their dedication to excellence and customer service truly sets them apart.

We just finished a large whole house interior paint job with Phinney Ridge and could not be happier with the results and how well the process went. The team was entirely professional and communicated thoroughly along the way. We ran into an issue with a paint and the team advised on a new plan with detail and calm. They handled all of the change themselves and managed the process with ease and grace. So very grateful for their patience and ability to pivot without disrupting the end goal.

Phinney Ridge was the best and we would recommend them to anyone looking to hire a paint company.

We recently hired Phinney Ridge Painting for a project, and we couldn't be more satisfied with the results. From start to finish, the entire team demonstrated professionalism and expertise.

Simon, the estimator, was knowledgeable and thorough, ensuring that we understood every aspect of the project. Our project manager, Ryan, was a fantastic communicator, making multiple trips to the job site to check in and ensure everything was on track. He was incredibly flexible with our changing scope, which we greatly appreciated.

The painters, Josiah and Michael, were outstanding. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they kept the work area extremely clean. We are absolutely thrilled with the quality of their work!

We would not hesitate to hire Phinney Ridge Painting again and highly recommend them to anyone in need of painting services!

We had our house and doors painted this summer and they did a nice job. Everyone was pleasant to work with. They were responsive to concerns we raised. We appreciated the walk through they did with us when they were almost finished to identify specific items that needed corrections or adjustments. We are very happy with the new color.

Phinney Ridge Painting did a great, fast, professional job making my home look beautiful inside and out. Can't recommend highly enough the great team. Smiles and friendly conversation, hard work, eye for detail, and multiple rounds of making everything "just so."

Phinney Ridge is an expert level organization companywide. From their project managers to their field teams, every step of the way you are in professional hands. Their work is extremely high quality. They offer competitive rates and take care of their employees. I highly recommend Phinney Ridge Paint for painting, carpentry, and small sheetrock projects. You will love the result AND the process!
