Led by owner James Beran and his wife Kyla, MobileHome Painting Specialist has served San Diego County's mobile home communities for over 12 years. This family-owned company specializes in mobile home and manufactured home painting, handling everything from complete exterior transformations to interior refreshes, cabinet refinishing, and elastomeric aluminum roof coatings.
James conducts estimates himself, often applying paint samples in both sunlight and shaded areas to help customers visualize their color choices. His crew includes foreman Bobby and painter Martin, with the team handling metal siding, vinyl siding, wood siding, stucco, paneling, and specialty coatings. The company emphasizes thorough preparation before any painting begins, including power washing, sanding, caulking, and wood repair.
The fully licensed and insured team holds a California C33 Painting and Decorating License with a $25,000 contractor's bond. Based in Tierrasanta, they serve all of San Diego County and surrounding areas, offering free consultations and pledging to beat any written estimate from another licensed and insured contractor.
