I was referred to this company for wallpaper hanging and the work exceeded my expectations! Michael and Julie were such a pleasure to work with and my part was hung perfectly and my wall was transformed!
I would highly recommend Coastal Colors for your wallpaper needs.

I have used Coastal Colors Painting Company numerous times over the past 15 years for work to my home. This includes various repairs and interior paintwork to all the rooms. I do not hesitate to recommend the owners Michael and Julie Chilton for their dedication to customer service, fair pricing, and high standard of workmanship. They are my “go to” painting company and are such nice, genuine people to work with. I will be using them again soon to paint the exterior of my house and for other projects within my home.

I am happy to share the most exciting experience. I hired Coastal Colors to repaint/repair my kitchen cabinets. In 3 days my kitchen was restored to brand new perfection. It’s like a whole new room. Coastal Colors is a professional, high level business, that is committed to excellence.

Coastal Colors painted both the exterior of our house and did some interior painting as well. We were getting ready to sell our home and wanted fresh paint before selling. They did a fabulous job and the place looked great after they painted it, so good that our house sold the first day! It is a husband and wife owned business, and I had the pleasure to deal with both Mick and Julie. They are so kind and easy to work with. I'm so glad I used Coastal Colors and highly recommend them.

Coastal Colors are absolutely fantastic! Michael and Julie (and Tanner and Jack) painted both of my condos--the first in 2015, and the second recently in April 2021. In both condos they painted all the walls and refinished all the cabinets and doors. They looked like new homes! The work is outstanding--quality double coats, beautiful trims, and superb workmanship. Michael is always on time, friendly, and so talented. They also agreed to do extra work for me with very short notice. I really love this company and their work, and could not recommend them more highly. I plan to use them for all my

Michael's work is excellent. He was very considerate and responsive. His contract featured a very good warranty, as well. We now have the look of brand new cabinets at a fraction of the cost.

This job involved painting a mobile home. Mike did a fantastic job that was minimal work on our part. He painted everything including the driveway. What was important to us was that he was bonded and insured. His quote was right in the ballpark with the other painters. He worked with me on scheduling and got it done on time and got it done right. The home had to be done by hand because spray painting in a mobile home park doesn't work.

We are in love with our kitchen transformation! Michael was wonderful to work with. He made it so easy. After the initial, socially-distanced, masked, COVID-conscious bid, we were able to secure the contract via email and schedule the work. He was very professional when he arrived and we appreciated his constant attention to social distancing and mask wearing. We could not be happier with his work, his attention to detail and his cleanliness. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to giving their kitchen cabinets a makeover!

As an Interior Designer I'm very particular about who I hire for my clients. I live in North Orange County and needed to find a painter for a client in San Diego. I chose Coastal Colors and both my clients and I are extremely happy! They are a family owned business and it shows in both their communication with me and detail in their work! Their quote was very reasonable, they worked with my schedule and completed the job on time. We are so pleased with the work done that my client asked them to come to Orange County and do a project. Micheal and Jack are a pleasure to work with. If you want

Michael refinished our kitchen cabinets from Maple to white and painted our interior house. He also installed baseboards in our bathroom. He was great to work with and within our budget. I cannot say enough good things about him. Extremely trustworthy, responsive, cost effective and does meticulous work. He showed up when he said he would and left my house was in pristine condition once he was done. I highly recommend them for any painting needs you have. Painting my kitchen cabinets completely transformed my house.

Mic and Jack did a fabulous job refinishing my wood kitchen island--it looks beautiful. They were on time, finished in three days as agreed, and the price was fair (per the written estimate). They were friendly, curious, and most importantly the craftsmanship was top quality. I certainly will have them back for more refinishing. I wholeheartedly recommend Coastal Colors.

Coastal Colors just finished smoothing the walls, installing new baseboards, and painting my living room. I was concerned that the smoothing step would result in fine dust getting all over the house, but they took great care to minimize it by closing off the room with plastic and hand-sanding. The results are beautiful, the job was done on time and competitively priced. I highly recommend them.

We came across Coastal Colors after searching for a local company to do some painting for us. We wanted to give our custom to one of the small companies in our area, rather than opting for the bigger names, and we're so pleased we did! We were treated as individuals, rather than just being a number, which is what we had experienced with the larger organizations.
Michael came round and talked us through the process, and he went into every details which was very helpful. When the work was being done, the painters were polite and courteous, and they also cleaned up really well at the end
