Chooz Score Insights
Hands-On Leadership
What sets Chameleon Painting Inc. apart is the father-and-son team of Juan Guillermo Jaramillo and his family running every aspect of the business. The Chooz Score's owner engagement indicators are strong: Juan is personally mentioned in the majority of reviews and actively responds to feedback. This isn't a company where you'll deal with a salesperson and never see them again:
- Juan personally handles every estimate, visits job sites daily to check progress, and works alongside his crew on projects
- The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, the owner had responded to over 97% of all reviews with personalized replies referencing specific project details
"Juan came out himself for the estimate, did the work with his crew the next week, and called a month later to make sure everything was still working perfectly. That's old-school service." - Larry R., Google Review

Additional Questions Answered
What does a first contact with Chameleon Painting look like from the homeowner's side?
Homeowners reach out by phone or through the website contact form, and Juan responds to schedule an in-home walkthrough. During that visit he takes measurements, photographs surfaces, discusses finish preferences, and reviews any prep concerns such as peeling paint or water damage. A written estimate with line-item pricing follows within days. As Lesley Sondey described, an estimate arrived quickly and work started the following week.
How does the crew protect a home's interior furnishings and finishes during a painting project?
Before any painting begins, the team covers furniture, floors, cameras, light fixtures, outlets, and even outdoor bushes in drop cloths and plastic sheeting. Workers cover their shoes when entering the home. Maureen O'Shea noted the painters were very careful with furniture, and Joanna D'Angelo praised the diligence in cleaning up at the end of each day, keeping the space spotless.
How do Juan and Felipe handle quality control across multiple active job sites?
Both Juan and Felipe visit each active project on a daily basis to inspect progress and address any homeowner concerns on the spot. This hands-on oversight was highlighted by numerous clients. Tom Lambert noted that the owners would check the progress daily, and Rena Rosenfeld confirmed that a supervisor comes by on a daily basis, keeping every detail on track.
What happens when a homeowner discovers an issue after the project wraps up?
The company encourages homeowners to flag any concerns promptly. One customer experienced delayed follow-up on a warranty matter, and the owner publicly committed to making it right. Judith McDermott reported that when her shutters came loose after staining, the crew came over and fixed everything the same day she called, showing quick resolution when issues are raised early.
What kinds of exterior surface work can Chameleon handle beyond standard house painting?
The crew offers soft washing for cedar and shingle homes, deck and fence staining, porch painting, gutter and downspout reattachment, caulking, wood plank replacement, and trim refinishing. Carolyn A described a full scope that included exterior wash, shingle staining, trim cleaning, nail hole filling, and stucco wall painting, all completed in a single engagement.
How do repeat customers describe the experience of bringing Chameleon back for new projects?
Clients who return for additional work often mention the seamless transition from one project to the next. Peggy B shared that Chameleon has completed several jobs at her home over ten years, from painting rooms and decks to transforming kitchen cabinets. Larry Rolnik called them his painters for life after a second exterior project delivered the same quality as the first.
