Serving Santa Monica, Los Angeles
Santa Monica homeowners know what quality looks like. This is a city where the properties are well maintained, the streets are well kept, and the bar for any contractor walking through the door is already set high before the first conversation happens.
The ocean environment here is relentless. Salt air and marine layer work on exterior surfaces year round. Homes close to the water need paint that was prepared to last in those conditions, not just applied and hoped for the best.
Zuno brings the same prep-first approach to every Santa Monica job that has built our reputation across the South Bay and Westside. The standard does not change based on the zip code.

It's all in the prep.
That phrase is not a tagline. It is how Sani has run Zuno Painting since the first job.
Any painter can open a can and roll a wall. What separates a result that looks good in photos from one that holds up for five years, through Westchester heat, coastal air, and LA sun, is everything that happens before the first coat goes on.
Most crews rush that part. We do not.
Surface cleaning. Crack repair. Caulking gaps that would show through paint if left alone. Priming the right surfaces with the right product. Taping that actually protects what it is supposed to protect. These are not extras. They are the job.
The paint is the last step. Everything before it is what makes the paint last.
Living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, ceilings. Clean lines, no mess left behind.

Real review · Santa Monica area
★★★★★
"Veteran painters Alphonso and Elmer were thorough and professional. They sanded, primed, and painted the entries, eaves, gutters, doors, and 59 window frames of our two story house. I am very pleased with the result. Sonny Bozunovich was always available for consultation and questions. A pleasure to work with."

Most crews rush that part. We do not.
Surface cleaning. Crack repair. Proper priming. These are not extras. They are the job.
The paint is the last step. Everything before it is what makes the paint last.
