After a few year of going back and forth they hired a new person in charge of customer service and oddly they ganged the position to the one guy that sold me the service and product he reached out didn't even know what was happening and to my surprise o wasn't expecting a call I let it go but he called me told me what's going on sent him all the proof and he was appalled of the outcome sent out a crew went beyond what they were supposed to repair so I can say I'm happy now the downfall is the new fixed work looks better than the previous work but it's a pass it still looks good so I'm happy you see it's easy when you have the right people in charge of customer service thank you Tim

I highly recommend Life Coat if you are considering repainting your property. My house is over 30 years old, all wood paneling, the paint was fading, starting to flake and I had some wood rot appearing in places which needed to be taken care of. So I contacted Life Coat, my property is quite large, and I really liked the idea of not having to repaint again in a few years! Tim was quick to respond to my enquiry and came to visit and assess my property. He did a thorough job of explaining the Life Coat process and why their process is far superior to any other house paint out there and he answered all my questions. Tim measured up my property and provided a quote on the spot. Now be prepared, Life Coat is not inexpensive, far more than a standard exterior paint job BUT as they say this is the last time you will have to paint your house, so in the long run this is a far better investment. The work crew were great, starting with a complete power wash and then priming everything (they prime before they do any repairs or prep work - which was a little confusing for me, but I could see why, the priming process highlights all the imperfections and where they need to repair and prep) Most of the time is spend in the prep work not painting, they identify anything which needs to be replaced / patched or worked on and they fix it. If any additional building materials are needed (like wood) then you will need to pay extra for that. I had areas where rot had to be fixed so there was some extra to spend, but it was worth it, all areas with rot were cut out and replaced, excellent work. You have a seemingly infinite number of choices when it comes to color, Jenifer and Philip came on site with a complete set of color Swatches and helped us select the perfect combination of colors for our house. The entire process start to finish took about two and half weeks and our property now looks incredible, like new, the attention to detail is amazing. They say the paint is 10-12 times thicker than normal house paint, and I can attest to that, it just feels like a thick quality covering. Time will tell if the claims are true about not having to repaint again, but so far I am thoroughly impressed, and there is a "lifetime guarantee" against chipping, peeling, flaking and cracking, so I feel very confident in my decision to use Life Coat.

Great Product at a Great Price !!!!! Worth the Price and work done on Homes built after the 1906 Earthquake !!!! Price Reasonable when you take in that the Prep work needed on homes over 100 Years old. Darn near rebuilt the Detached garage during the prep period. you get what you pay for!! If you want quality you go with Deluxe Lifecote !!! If you want short cuts ??? take your chances with the competition. be kind to the house you live in !!!! It will take care of you for many Generations !!!

We needed to have our house painted, and a lot of prep work was needed, such as fixing cracks, scraping and sanding wood trim and garage, replacing threshholds, replacing wood in eaves, etc. We were unhappy with work done by previous painters, who did not prep properly. and painting was needed again within 2 years. A friend referred us to Deluxe Lifecote, and they were wonderful! Tim showed us what to expect and Victor told us everything they were going to do, and worked through the weekend to ensure that everything was done before the rains began. And they cleaned up everything each night before they left. Our old house looks new again, and this should last years longer than any previous paint job. Very satisfied!

My wife and I bought a fixer upper a few years ago. From the inside to the outside we had work to do. We had to get new windows for our dining room. We had several bids however California Deluxe Windows was the only Company that manufactured windows to our specifications. Lastly we needed the outside of our house painted and restored. Again several bids however Deluxe Life Coat was the only Company that we trusted. We had some questions and our go to guy is Tim Belknap. Mr. Belknao contacted Abel his Painting Manager and their team constructed and completed what my wife and I considered over and above what we had anticipated. When couples consider staying at five (5) Star Hotels or restaurants, I believe there should be a rating by Forbes for Five (5) Star Businesses. California Deluxe Windows and Deluxe Life Coat should both be in Forbes as Best Businesses in the Home Beatification Industry. Before I forget, none of this would have happened if not for Mr. Emmanuel Mann the traveling Sales representative who told us about both companies.

Excellent job on our old 1963 home. We had dry rot in various places. The team initially power washed the home to clear all old patches and to reveal weak stucco and cracks. They sealed those cracks, redid the stucco as needed looking exactly like our original pattern. They replaced a few beams that were severely dry rot. Sanded all wood areas. Then applied the Lifecote patented primer on the house to seal and waterproof everything before applying the final coats of paint. The house looks like new. We've been getting comments from neighbors on how great the house looks. Initially I called Deluxe Lifecote after hearing the ad on the radio. Tim Belknap came out from the company and reviewed all that was going to happen and how this product never needs repainted over again for the life of the home. We never need to paint again. Tim worked with us on pricing and got us a great deal. Milton was the lead rep for the work crew and always kept us informed on progress as the work was done. Mauricio was the on site rep leading the actual work team and was always responsive to any questions or concerns we had. We are super happy with the result and recommend the company to anyone who needs their house painted for the last time ever.

Let me start by saying.....Look no further!! Deluxe Lifecote puts all others to shame. We are new home owners and in the last 3 years we have dealt with many companies, contractors, handy men and let's just say it's very difficult to find professional, thorough and caring people. The very best investment we have ever made. Our house looks amazing. We started with Tim Belknap who took his time to explain everything and walked around our property with us. We never felt pressured or that all he cared about was the sale. He actually was caring and made us feel at ease. Milton was great too. We were happy to have him leading the work to be done. Ishmael and crew were talented and very accommodating. When we had concerns or needed something fixed, they did it right away and were very nice about it. They all showed up when they said. They were completely done in 5 days. We are beyond pleased and would do it all over again. Thank you all for a job well done.

The entire process was friendly and efficient. Tim and his entire team were knowledgeable and always kept me informed and up to date. We had a short timeline to complete the process due to having a big backyard party. I was worried about the rain. Victor and Jennifer helped me calm down. Everything was done on time AND they even helped us get rid of a bunch of cardboard boxes. I strongly recommend this business and their entire team!!

We had our house painted by Deluxe Cote. The quality is outstanding! Everything went smoothly and as promised by the salesman and crew. They were always great with communication and I can't say enough about the crew. They did a phenomenal job preparing and completing our home. They were detail oriented and very clean. We couldn't be happier. This is a quality company. The absolute best result is a lifetime guarantee that we will never have to paint our home again.

Tim was extremely knowledgeable. He along with Milton, Enrique and the other two workers are great examples on how a business should be run. They keep you informed throughout the whole process and answer any questions you may have plus they even take your phone calls. Impressive!

They did great! We have a house in front, a detached garage and a 2-unit 2 story apartment. It had to be done in 2 stages because of all the "stuff" we had around the place. They were able to work this in quite well. The painters arrived on time as scheduled and finished up as scheduled. The cost was reasonable and there were no surprise extra costs in the end. There was a final walk through to look for any things that may have been missed. There were a couple of items that needed to be touched up and those were taken care of the same day before they left. I wish I had taken some before and after photos to post but unfortunately, I did not.

Meeting with Tim was great, he was upfront and honest about the LifeCote product. Now my house looks brand new. Enrique and his crew were a pleasure to work with. The inside of my house is so much cooler with this product protecting us from the hot desert heat.

The Deluxe Lifecote team did a great job from beginning to end on restoring and painting our house! We hadn’t painted the exterior of our home for over 20 years. We came across Deluxe Lifecote at a home show and arranged for an estimate. Tim Belknap contacted us shortly thereafter and came by to provide us with a very thorough presentation on the benefits of the DLC product and process as well as what the cost would be for our home. We decided to do it that day and the process moved very quickly after that. Milton and his crew started their work soon and it took about 9 days to complete the job. The two main crew members Ismael and Hector did great detailed work and were super nice. Much needed repairs to stucco and cracks were also done and the house looks great! Thanks to Tim, Milton, Ismael, Hector and the whole DLC team. The cost was substantially higher than a regular paint job but worth it and looking forward to never having to paint again.

The service and attention given to my home by the team at Deluxe Lifecote was exceptional. Despite some early hiccups caused by the supply-side issues all are facing, Tim and Alan beautifully coordinated the work to be performed at my home. Kudos specially to Jack who did the work. His diligence, initiative and professionalism in ensuring I was satisfied with the color issue made the matter less stressful. The color on my house was particularly an issue as I had agonized about its tone, hue and finish for a long time prior to having the work done in 2016. Given that and the substantial layout involved in the original project that reached close to $30K-- in tandem with wonderfully customized windows by California Deluxe Windows (CDW)—it was no small detail that I wished to overlook when performing the repairs on various small cracks and other general and natural deterioration of the woodwork and stucco work done. As more fully expressed to Tim, it is refreshing to do business with individuals in a company that holds to the old tenet of “doing” rather than talking about doing. As so often is the case now. In the end it all worked out great and just before the rains go here too. I hope to live in my home for several decades more and perhaps leave it to the next generation. I hope Lifecote and CDW remain successful for that time and beyond so my family can rely on their courteous and conscientious services for many more years to come. Keep up the good work Tim, Alan, Jack and Bikram. All the best from our family in the newly radiant Casa Calabasa. Gracias Amigos.
