Arevalo Plastering

We had a stucco chimney built by another contractor who failed to finish and did a very poor job. Contact a few contractors and solicited quotes. Arevalo not only swooped in to the rescue. Not only did the repair the previous work, but finished it better than I could have hoped.

Chris M was spot on. We just had work done after the last heavy rain be fore the one we just had. They did a great job in 2 days. Read his/​her review and ditto on all he/​she wrote

Exceptional work for a great price. We had a 1905 house with lathe & plaster walls that needed repair or recoating throughout — many thousands of square feet of walls & ceiling, cove ceilings, repair of holes and channels made for electrical work — and Arnoldo gave us a good price (much cheaper than drywalling, and drywall wouldn’t be right for this house anyway). Prior to talking to him I had been very worried that the plasterwork was going to bust our budget, but it was very reasonable. When his crew arrived I don’t even know how many guys were there, they worked very carefully and very hard, got everything done in just a few days, and I’m really happy with the work. They even did some extra pieces in closets and our basement stairs that we’d specifically excluded from the contract. The work looks great, every time I look at our smooth & clean walls and ceiling I appreciate it.

Arnaldo did a small stucco repair job for me, removing some
really cracked areas and replacing them.
He did a super job and I would use him again. I got a very prompt response to my initial request and Susan-​Jane was very upfront about needing to fit my small job in when they had an opening and all went smoothly. Highly recommended.

Arevalo Plastering did a complete re-​stucco of our entire house, which was plagued with huge cracks and gaps in the stucco. The work was all hand done/​troweled, no spraying of stucco material. An acrylic stucco material was used, to minimize future cracking and fading.
Arnaldo Arevalo and his crew were prompt, tidy, courteous, professional, and conscientious. The pricing was extremely competitive with other bids we received, and the quality of the work was exceptional. The business side of the operation was handled in a prompt, responsive and very professional manner. There were several weather delays affecting the project, but the crew was back on the job as soon as humanly possible. They coordinated their timing with the contractor who painted the trim, so that the painters could use the Arevalo scaffolding, which resulted in a time and cost reduction to us on the paint work. The crew arrived at the job site at the appointed time each day, notified us when they arrived and departed, and tidied the site daily.
The job is complete and the stucco is beautiful in every detail; our yard is now tidier/​cleaner than when the job began. I would highly recommend this business to anyone needing stucco work.

the owner (arnaldo) came on time to do a quote for a small addition’s worth (about 180 sq. ft.) of stucco as well as a small patch above a leaky window that was done by a different stucco contractor.
we received the quote with 24 hours and it was quite reasonable. we set a date for a week away and they accepted and showed up on time.
arnaldo showed up with his brother (both of whom are fluent english/​spanish speakers) and a laborer and they went to work right away. they laid down plastic in the appropriate areas and immediately started breaking away old stucco (to tie into) and laying out the weep screed. arnaldo was around for a couple hours that first day at the beginning of the work and at the end of the day to oversee everything. they put down two layers of felt paper per the building code, flashed around two newly installed windows, installed metal lath and put on a scratch coat with a fast curing stucco mix.
the next day the crew returned on time and got to work again. they wet down the scratch coat and mixed the brown coat. they applied the brown coat and then sprayed and knocked down the texture coat. arnaldo did the texture coat himself. arnaldo and his brother do real professional work and it’s obvious they care about their job. not every stucco contractor would be onsite as much as arnaldo was. it was nice that he took pride in his work and responsibility for the final product.
speaking of the final product — it looked fantastic. i really wish we had found arevalo plastering before getting two other contractors to patch some other spots. i have no reservations recommending them.

My sister Troy already talked about what a fantastic job Arevalo Plastering did on our house. (Imagine your house looked like a broken cake and then, they cover it with a smooth coating of perfect fondant type icing — that’s what they did! Nothing short of amazing — can wait for the before and after shots) But, beyond everything she said, I just want to add that they also went out of their way to personally deal with some unpleasant situations with the occupants of neighboring dwellings. Construction is by nature noisy, messy, and tends to make those who are not directly benefitting, a bit cranky. This was above and beyond the «call,» and even required their acquistion of additional specialized scaffolding to complete the job in an incredibly narrow space. Their personal skills and willingness to problem solve were tactful, diplomatic and did wonders in establishing a more cordial tone for the future.
Wonderful work, super responsive to our needs and in dealing with «situations.» (which, I hope never comes up again for them).

WOW! Arevalo Plastering did a superb job replastering our house. At a later time I will post «before» and «after» shots so you can see the difference — words cannot describe it! Susan-​Jane and Arnaldo were easy to communite with and great to work with. The crew repaired/​replaced existing stucco work that our prior contractor «abandoned,» they did a beautiful and artistic plastering job, worked with our roofing company (Collins Roofing, Inc., Oakland, CA) to coordinate efforts, and then followed-​up to do final touch-​ups. Their bid for the work was exceptionally reasonable and I feel we received far more than we bargained for. Just great, I can’t recommend them enough!

We just purchased our house and knew that we needed plastering and waterproofing work on all of the exterior walls. I looked around and Arevalo Plastering had great Unilocal reviews, so we asked them (along with another company) to come out and give us a bid.
Not only was their bid more reasonable, but they did a really excellent job came back to review the work a week later to make sure that it had turned out well (it had). It was Arnoldo’s brother who was leading a team and he was excellent. I definitely recommend Arevalo for their honesty and high-​quality work.

Highly skilled, quick, professional, friendly and competitively priced. Arnoldo and his crew arrived on the scene to find a really poorly done sheetock job in place. They took a wreck and made it into excellent craftsmanship.
My wife and I are really happy with the high quality, cost-​effective job that was done. We wouldn’t hesitate to call them again for any future plaster work.

Arevalo Plastering did a beautiful job on our house. They worked with us to create a custom color that we loved and basically made our house look new. Arnoldo and his crew were very courteous and extremely neat throughout the process. Thanks!
