Across its review profiles, the company held over 90 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating, along with 5.0 stars on Yelp across over 30 reviews, 4.9 stars on Angi across over 40 reviews, and 100% recommended on Facebook across 4 reviews. Perfect averages on two platforms at once, each with a meaningful review count, are rare, and the Angi profile trails by only a tenth of a star.
Mario Meza is named in most of the reviews we analyzed, giving the quote himself and returning after the job to inspect the work, and reviewers name Luis, Pablo, Jose, Gustavo, and Alicia. We found at least two reviewers describing the crew coming back after completion to correct something, in one case after the bill had been paid. Clear communication is the quality mentioned most often. An owner who quotes the job, inspects it afterward, and sends the crew back for anything short of his standard is the pattern that recurs most.
"Mario came over afterwards to inspect, spotted a few things he didn't think were 100% perfect, and had his crew come back to redo those things, at no additional cost to me. Mario's concern for perfection is rare in the trades." - J K., Google Review
Advice For Future Customers
Several reviewers describe Mario working through the plan at the estimate, from product and finish choices to preparation details, and one says his approach produced the best plan among about ten quotes, so it pays to bring your questions to that first visit. If you are on a tight timeline, say so early. Reviewers describe emergency and move-in jobs completed on short notice, in one case a water damage repair finished in a single day, and one notes extra painters were brought in to meet a move-in date.
