        A Deck Transformed: American Classic Painters Deliver! My old deck was looking tired and faded, but thanks to American Classic Painters, it's now a showstopper! They did an amazing job staining my deck, transforming it from a dull eyesore to a vibrant and welcoming space. From the initial consultation with Nick to the final cleanup, the entire process was professional and efficient. The project manager Gabriel was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, answering all my questions and providing expert advice on the best stain options for my needs. They were also very respectful of my property, covering everything carefully and cleaning up thoroughly when the job was finished. The quality of the work done by Olger is truly impressive. The stain application was flawless, with even coverage and a beautiful, rich color. My deck is now protected from the elements and looks absolutely stunning. I highly recommend American Classic Painters to anyone looking for top-notch deck staining services. Their expertise, professionalism, and attention to detail make them a clear choice for anyone wanting a beautiful and durable deck. **Pros:** * Professional and knowledgeable team * Excellent communication and customer service * Flawless stain application and beautiful results * Respectful and careful with property * Thorough cleanup **Cons:** * None! I couldn't fault them on anything.

        We were very happy with the job American Classic painters did! Gabriel and his team were very easy and accommodating to work with. We even had to some last minute add ons that they were able to work into the project. Additionally, they were very reasonably priced in comparison to others that we received quotes from. We would absolutely work with them again!

        I was very grateful to work with American Classic Painters, specifically with Denis and Bataa, on a variety of house projects we'd had on our list for years (drywalling, baseboard painting, wall paint matching and painting). They were very communicative, kept things on time and on budget and we were very happy with the results. I'd definitely recommend this team for your home painting needs!

        FYI : If your home is in need of painting, we would highly recommend American Classic Painters out of Issaquah. Carlos and his crew did an outstanding job on our home. Their bid was very competitive and communication was superb before and during the job. 5 days start to finish even with rain this week.

      • Emily S.

        Seattle, WA

        Everything was wonderful start to finish! Gabriel and his team were communicative, vey fast, and did a great job painting my house. The job was priced very competitively and I would definitely contact them again for jobs in the future.

      • Ben

        Seattle, WA

        We are very satisfied from start to finish working with ACP on our exterior wall paints. Denis, the sales manager, was the most professional and thorough and gave the most competitive quote among other 5 companies we quoted. Denis followed up diligently. We asked for minor changes and additions to the quote and Denis also updated them very promptly on the contract. Project manager Gabriel supervised the 4 day long project, handling the communications very well. He made sure all questions and requests we have are properly addressed by the team. We wanted more water resistance. He recommended us to go with low luster instead satin which turned out to be the absolute right decision. William, the head painter, and his team, did an overall great job, made sure small imperfections we spotted were done right before they left. We were very happy on the final result. The house looked like new after the work.

          I have nothing but praise for American Classic Painters, who recently painted my house's exterior and trim. Their workmanship was excellent, masking impeccable, and cleanup perfect. They showed up on time as expected, and project Manager Gabriel checked in daily, often visiting my house as we worked though exactly what we wanted done and to check for any issues or blockages (there were none.) They power washed the whole house, then replaced some dry-rotted lap siding, caulked all the windows and gaps, masked all the windows, doors, fixtures and ground, and painted. I couldn't ask for more. This is tough work on a three story house in the forest, and their work is worth every penny. My house looks gorgeous.

          I was very impressed with my whole experience with American Classic Painters. Dennis, the project manager, did a very thorough job from start to finish with excellent communication. Seemed very invested in the project and making sure everything was working out as I wanted it to. Freddie headed the painting team, who was also fantastic to work with (really great attention to detail). The whole painting team did a phenomenal job. Highly recommend!

          Although I have not yet decided to paint my new home, I’ve been pleasantly impressed with the ‘care & concern’ from the leadership level. Nic truly cares about creating a first rate experience with and for his perspective clients…and that’s exactly how it should be. When the time does come to paint my home, it’ll be hard to forget Nic and his team at American Classic Painters.

          We used American Classic Painters for both the interior and exterior paint on our new house. At the beginning of the season they were available on short notice to paint the inside before we moved in and completed it in a few days. The exterior looks great and we get lots of compliments on it. When we had an issue with some caulk from the sun after the excessive heat, Nick himself came out to fix it up. They were professional and hard workers!
