What painter did you use?
I used these guys:https://www.facebook.com/OCPaint
The managers name is Danny (Older Korean guy who gives the quotes but doesn't do the painting).
Their page is really outdated but they don't have their own webpage. Anyhow, if you call them or use them, make sure you get the painter named "Sotero", he will come and bring his wife (don't worry she's really good too), and usually brings one other guy with him but they've always been good.
If Sotero works the whole job I don't think you'll have any issues - anything you want him to fix or touch up just point it out to him and he will redo it until you're satisfied. I had him re-do a few things in both the houses they painted for me and he didn't complain.
These guys spent 4 days painting my 5 bedroom house and charged only $2.3k, (I picked about 5 colors) they came early and worked until dark. I'm pretty sure material alone cost them around $600. They prefer you use Dunn Edwards but I asked them to use Behr (Satin Finish) and they were OK with it.
After the material cost you divide $1,700 by 4 days and 2-3 workers per day, doesn't come out to much at all. Last I used them was about 4 months ago so they may have increased prices, but as long as they're not super busy you can get a good deal.
