Over the 12 years of owning our house in Fredericksburg, he has been one of the most skilled painters as well as understanding how all facets of a room remodel fits together. Octavio was extremely easy to discuss ideas with and give his personal opinion. Blackwater will definitely be doing our next job.”

Every time Octavio goes above and beyond and makes me glad I hired him. He's easy to talk to, communicates schedules well and just does a great job at everything I've hired him to do.

“Octavio and his crew were able to be on site for planning on how long it would take, bring in the necessary scaffolding and tools to do the job efficiently, and have everything completed on time. This was all done through remote communication as our job site was 100 miles from his location and our company is located in Iowa! This group did a fantastic job and we won't hesitate to contact them again on any future projects that we have in the area.”
