I would like to recommend a great painting team: Jorge Quintero and Lupita. They painted the inside rooms of my casa and resealed the roof. They gave me a quote of both labor and materials, were here when they said they would be, and did an excellent job throughout the house. I was very impressed with their attention to detail and their craftsmanship. Their cell phone number is 044. 624. 159.6646. Thank you. Mary Catlin 142-8087
