5 Best Painters in Los Lunas, NM - Chooz Score Ranked

About New Mexico's Painting Specialists

When Dra Elizabeth needed her entire Albuquerque home painted quickly, New Mexico's Painting Specialists completed every room in just one day with results she called "absolutely stunning." The crew's attention to detail was "unreal" with every edge, corner, and surface treated with care and precision. She felt "completely at ease" having them work throughout her home. This combination of speed, quality, and trustworthiness defines how owners Amanda Loudenback and Edmund Gaxiola run their operation.

That single-day transformation represents typical execution for the team. Since launching in January 2022, they've built their perfect 5.0-star rating across over 50 Google reviews through consistent practices. Painters Christian, Mekhi, Eddie, Riley, and Chris handle projects ranging from kitchen cabinet refinishing to complete exterior transformations. Tracy C's 3200-square-foot home saw Christian, Oscar, and Riley match kitchen cabinet colors perfectly and complete everything on schedule. Taren Minion watched Chris and Riley not only repaint her exterior but replace damaged soffit, repair a water-damaged door frame, and remove obsolete wiring (all without extra charges). The crew left her home looking "brand new" and transformed it into "the premier house on the block."

Multiple customers mention the company operates primarily through word-of-mouth referrals. Carol Howard hired them for cabinet painting, loved the results, then immediately booked them again for trim and baseboard work. Rachel Canales completed multiple projects (cabinets, wood staining, interior, exterior) and expressed disappointment only because they're leaving the area and won't be able to use the company again. The A+ BBB rating and perfect Google average reflect something beyond technical skill. They capture a contractor who shows up on time daily, responds to inquiries within hours, maintains constant communication through Amanda's project coordination, and consistently delivers results that turn first-time customers into repeat clients and vocal advocates.

About Desert Winds Painting

When Elise Bayles hired Desert Winds Painting for extremely tall kitchen walls, the job took several days longer than expected and consumed far more paint and primer than anticipated. The final bill remained exactly what was quoted. Painter John spent extra time caulking and filling holes, refusing to rush work despite extended timelines.

That kitchen project represents typical execution. Owner Chris and project coordinator Micah have built their 4.8-star rating with over 100 Google reviews through consistent practices. Morning confirmation texts before arrivals, furniture protection using multiple layers, addressing discovered issues like damaged trim without change orders. From their Farmington base, crews handle projects across Albuquerque, Durango, and surrounding New Mexico and Colorado areas. Customers mention daily progress updates, crews greeting them at arrival and departure, Chris personally intervening when scheduling problems arise.

Desert Winds operates primarily through word-of-mouth. Teresa Gaebler hired them across state lines specifically because they returned phone calls, describing this as "unheard of" among contractors. When Christine Boehringer expressed frustration after months of scheduling delays, Chris responded late Friday evening, apologized without excuses, and promised to handle the work personally rather than letting her attempt it in cold weather. The over 100 reviews since 2018 reflect something beyond technical skill. They capture a contractor who treats timelines seriously, maintains communication through coordinators, and delivers reliability that turns first-time customers into repeat clients.
