I Paint
Interior and exterior house painting from a Lincoln Avenue address in Redwood City.
Acerca de
Peeling trim, a scuffed hallway or a house that needs fresh colour before it goes on the market: that is the kind of job brought to I Paint, a painting business listed at 155 Lincoln Avenue in Redwood City with Isaiah Rivera as owner. The chamber's records file it under paint and wallpaper retail, but the public listings that mention it point to residential painting rather than a shop counter, so this page describes that work. This listing was compiled from public business records and is awaiting the owner's confirmation.
Work a painter like this usually takes on
A business of this kind in Redwood City usually handles interior rooms, ceilings and trim, along with exterior siding, eaves and fences. Before any paint goes on, the crew typically washes surfaces, scrapes loose material, patches small holes and cracks in drywall, caulks gaps and sands glossy finishes so the new coat bonds. Many painters also stain decks, refinish kitchen cabinets and pressure-wash walls and walkways ahead of an exterior job.
Older homes add a step. Paint applied before 1978 may contain lead, and federal rules require firms that disturb it in homes to follow lead-safe work practices, so ask how the crew contains dust and cleans up afterwards.
Before you sign an estimate
Get at least two written estimates for the same scope, and make sure each one names the surfaces, the number of coats, the brand and sheen of paint and who moves the furniture. California requires a contractor's licence for jobs above a set dollar threshold, so ask for the licence number and look it up at cslb.ca.gov, where the record also shows bond and workers' compensation status. Request proof of liability insurance as well. Tie payments to progress, since state law caps the down payment on home improvement work, and keep a copy of the signed contract. For exteriors, ask how the crew plans around rain and morning damp, which can push a start date back by a day or two.
Homes around Redwood City
A painter working out of Lincoln Avenue can reach jobs across Redwood City and in San Carlos, Belmont, Woodside, Emerald Hills, Menlo Park, Atherton and East Palo Alto, all within San Mateo County. Ask whether travel to the farther towns, or to hillside homes with awkward access, changes the estimate.
To ask for an estimate, call 650-207-5148. If you are Isaiah Rivera, you can claim this listing through the chamber and correct anything on it.

Siding, eaves, fascia, fences and garage doors, usually preceded by washing, scraping and spot-priming so the finish holds up through seasons of sun and rain.
Filling nail holes and cracks, patching small drywall damage, caulking joints and sanding glossy surfaces before painting, the step that decides how long a paint job lasts.
Cleaning, sanding, priming and repainting kitchen or bathroom cabinet boxes and doors, an alternative to replacing cabinets when the boxes are still sound.
Stain or clear sealer on decks, fences and wood trim, applied after cleaning and drying so the wood absorbs it evenly and resists weathering.

Preguntas frecuentes
Típico de este tipo de negocioHow long does it take to paint the inside of a house?
A single room often takes a day or two including prep. A whole interior can run a week or more depending on size, repairs and how many colours are involved. Ask the painter for a written schedule.
Do I need to move my own furniture?
Painters usually push furniture to the middle of the room and cover it, but they may ask you to pack small items, artwork and electronics. Confirm who does what in the estimate so nothing is left out.
What should a painting estimate include?
The surfaces to be painted, the prep work, the number of coats, the paint brand, line and sheen, the colours, cleanup, start and finish dates and a payment schedule. Compare estimates line by line, not just by total.
How do I check a painting contractor in California?
Look up the licence number on the Contractors State License Board site, cslb.ca.gov. The record shows whether the licence is active, its classification, the bond and whether workers' compensation coverage is on file.
