A & B Painting Inc
A painting contractor's Santa Clara office on Walsh Avenue, with Bert Valdez listed as president.
About
A & B Painting Inc is a painting contractor with an office at 672 Walsh Avenue in Santa Clara, and the chamber's records list Bert Valdez as its president. Contractor directories describe a regional firm doing commercial painting from offices in San Francisco and Oakland as well as this one, though the company has not confirmed that for this page. This listing was compiled from public business records and is awaiting the owner's confirmation.
Work a painting contractor usually takes on
A firm of this kind in Santa Clara County usually handles interior and exterior painting for offices, shops, apartment buildings and houses. Much of the labour is preparation rather than painting: patching drywall, scraping, sanding, caulking and priming so the finish coat lasts. Larger contractors often add specialty coatings, wallcovering and scheduled repaints for property managers, while wallpaper removal and cabinet refinishing are typical on the residential side.
Getting an estimate
Ask for a site visit and a written estimate that names the surfaces, the number of coats, the paint brand and product line, and who moves furniture and protects floors. Contractor directories cite a state contractor licence number, 311439, for the company. Look it up yourself at cslb.ca.gov, where the Contractors State License Board shows whether a licence is active and which classifications it covers. Request proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage before anyone starts. California law caps the down payment on a home improvement contract, so ask for a payment schedule tied to finished stages of the job. On commercial work, settle who pulls any permits, how the crew will work around occupied space and whether painting can happen after hours.
Where the company works
An office on Walsh Avenue is well placed for jobs in Santa Clara, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Campbell, Milpitas, Mountain View and Los Altos, all in Santa Clara County. The directories' mention of other offices suggests the firm also works farther up the Bay, so confirm the service area for your project when you call.
Call 408-727-4915 to request an estimate. Bert Valdez or another officer of the company can claim this listing through the chamber and add the firm's own account of its work.
Services
Typical for this type of businessWalls, ceilings, trim and doors in offices, shops and homes, including the patching, sanding and priming that decide how long the finish lasts.
Siding, stucco, trim and fascia, with scraping, caulking and priming first; Santa Clara's dry summers set the usual season for outdoor work.
Painting for office buildings, retail spaces and apartment complexes, often scheduled around tenants or after hours to keep disruption low.
Patching holes and cracks and matching wall texture before painting, a routine part of preparation on both commercial and residential jobs.
Stripping old wallpaper, repairing the wall surface underneath and hanging new wallcovering where a project calls for it.
Cleaning, sanding and repainting kitchen or bath cabinets as a lower-cost alternative to replacement; ask about the coating and drying time.

Common questions
Typical for this type of businessHow does a painting estimate usually work?
A contractor visits the site, measures the surfaces and notes the preparation needed, then provides a written estimate. Compare estimates on the same scope: surfaces, coats, paint product and who handles furniture and cleanup.
How do I check a painting contractor's licence?
Search the licence number or company name at cslb.ca.gov, the Contractors State License Board site. It shows whether the licence is active, its classifications, and bond and workers' compensation information.
What warranty should I expect on paint work?
Warranty terms vary by contractor and by job. Ask for the terms in writing, including how long they last, what they cover, such as peeling or blistering, and what they exclude.
How long does an interior repaint take?
A few rooms in a house can take a few days including preparation and drying time, while a commercial space depends on size and access. Ask for a schedule with the written estimate.
