Great experience with Kelly Brothers. I had heard from friends (including architects & interior designers) that Kelly Brothers is the best, but also expensive. We found their pricing to be competitive with other quotes, and the work, indeed, is great. They were flexible, responsive, and it turned out beautifully. We did take advantage of the "color consultation" for help choosing an accent color and approach to wood staining and that was very helpful. Also, they have folks who can repair stucco, which is incredibly hard to find in the Truckee area. Now we can't even tell where they did stucco repairs, it blends totally seamlessly into the existing stucco.
Response from the owner:Hi, Eliza. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

Kelly Brothers went above and beyond. They stained/painted my house and did a great job. There was an issue when power washing my house. It turned out the spigot hose was broken inside the walls unbeknownst to anyone. Fortunately, I was home and realized quickly because within a couple minutes, it had completely flooded one of my downstairs bedrooms. They stopped immediately. And while the break and subsequent flood was not their fault, Kevin Kelly and Sergio and his team did more to help then I ever could have hoped for. Kevin was at my house within 30 minutes of the issue and they moved the furniture out of the room quickly. I was planning on removing and replacing the carpet in the next couple of months anyway, so instead of trying to save it, they pulled it out and took it to the dump for me. Kevin also helped me connect to a plumber and get some drywall fixed by his guys and all at a good price. I ended up not getting my insurance involved because with the help from Kelly brothers, everything cost less then my deductable. And also, they made everything easy when the idea of dealing with insurance and finding people to fix everything felt overwhelming. Also, Todd the carpenter did a phenomenal job fixing wood trim and other odds and ends on the outside of the house before it was painted. Thank Kevin, Todd, Sergio and the rest of your team.
Response from the owner:Hi, Deborah. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
