Painting a 157 Year-Old Home in Winters with Farrow & Ball Paint

Project Spotlight

Brooks Painting just wrapped up a 5-week project painting the interior of Park Winters. This home was originally built in 1865, and it still maintains a lot of the original charm. We were hired by SNW Construction in conjunction with the owners of Park Winters to work on this project while the venue closed down from Christmas until the end of January. It's a very popular and beautiful wedding venue, and boutique bed and breakfast in Yolo County. We were honored to have been trusted with this 157 year-old home, and we were excited to add this project to our portfolio.

What started as a smaller project, quickly morphed into painting the entire inside of the historic home. The owner requested we use Farrow & Ball paint for this project. Farrow & Ball is a British manufacturer of paints and wallpapers largely based upon historic color palettes and archives. The company is particularly well known for the unusual names of its products. This was our first time using this paint, and it was a pleasure to work with. The colors are rich and have a depth that is simply amazing. This paint brand is not readily available as their only local store is in Berkeley. However, the staff was easy to work with, and we easily got our paint shipped to the job site in three days.

Our Crew Leader, Mark, did an amazing job balancing the growing scope of work, added staff, and other trades. With the venue being closed for just five weeks, we had to efficiently work alongside many other trades during throughout the project. It is not an easy task to have a nice paint finish when others are creating dust or are in your way. Mark handled the stress with poise, and he and his crew produced a quality paint job.

Brooks Painting has be in business a long time in our area. As a native resident we have seen and heard of their professional & quality painting. In looking for bids on painting our house Brooks was referred numerous times. When Jeremy came out to meet us we were sold on using their services and looked no further. Every aspect of this company was very upfront, professional and made us feel safe, valued and comfortable hiring them. The office staff kept good communication with us. The color matching was perfect. The crew showed up on time, were respectful and did a great job from prep to the final end of the project. The warranty offered was a plus and the liability coverage gave us peace of mind also. The price was well worth all that was included in the project so we had little to do but move our stuff away from the house. Thank you Brooks painting, crew and staff for making our home new again :)

Chris and Gabriel were amazing. Corey was patient and helpful in answering questions and while I decided on colors. The office was easy to contact and had good follow-through. Thank you so much to Brooks for a job I could not possibly be happier with. Feel free to use me as a reference!

We are long time happy customers with many positive experiences with Brooks Painting. We have appreciated the assistance (and patience) with selecting paint colors, the professionalism of the staff and the high quality of workmanship. We recently had some interior painting done and the crew was on time, neat, careful inside the house and very easy to work with. They also cheerfully handled some unexpected drywall repair. I highly recommend Brooks Painting.

Teri Greenfield

Hiring Brooks Painting was an easy and professional process the whole way through, from the estimate to the completion of having my very high walls edged, where I was unable to reach them. Crew Leader Eric was prompt and super capable, which was a relief since he had to maneuver and climb a very tall ladder. He was also in the process of teaching a newer painter and I admired his positive and encouraging manner. In addition, he was willing to respond to my requests with ease. No regrets here! The edging looks amazing and only took 4 hours to complete.

Great job in every way- quality of work to customer service.

Debbie M.

Very professional, I appreciate the time they took to make sure everything was taken care of for my house! I really liked that Jaime stepped up and told me not to paint my front door like the house and then chose a color that worked great. Thank you!

Dale S.

It was fun working with Chris and his crew. I’ve never had a contracted job go so smoothly from start to finish. The office was responsive to my needs, Corey was patient and helpful while I made color choices, and Chris made sure I was happy with the crew’s work every step of the way. Gabriel does amazing work as well. Very much a perfectionist like Chris. I don’t have a bad thing to say. The job is absolutely stunning and I’ve had so many neighbors tell me it’s beautiful. I’m happy to put one of your signs in my front yard if you’d like so people know as they drive by who did the work. Thank you Brooks Painting. I will be recommending you to anybody who asks.
