I contracted Bobby to cover popcorn ceilings in two bedrooms and a small section in my living room with sheetrock and finish with texture. I also had him frame out and finish an attic entryway in the master bedroom that had popcorn and remove an old cable jack and phone outlet on the wall, patching those areas with drywall. I found his name mentioned on a Nextdoor post from a neighbor down the street from me. After accepting his bid, he was quick to call me to set up a time to sign the contract and to look over the job site. He was able to put me on the schedule within two days of my agreeing to hire him. He worked consecutively for three days. He completed the job on a Wednesday evening around 8:30pm. It was late and dark in the rooms, and I did a quick assessment with the flashlight on my phone. I pointed out a couple areas where I could still see the seams in the drywall, and he reassured me those wouldn't be noticeable once everything had dried. I paid him the remainder of the money and we parted ways. Next day afternoon, I was able to see the finished work in daylight with a better light source, and was not pleased with the work done. I was able to see almost all of the drywall seams. The corners in the attic entryway were not clean and smooth, and there were random marks and lines in the textured ceiling. Texturing was not done evenly. The texture was so thin in some areas that I could see the sheetrock and heavy in other spots where it was dripping down more than a ¼" and casting shadows. Texturing was also done with the attic door sitting in place. The door was sealed to the attic entry where heavy texture dried. I had rip that apart to push the attic door open. The corners in the living room area were not completely filled in nor smooth looking. I was very disappointed that someone who had 13 years experience would leave me with this quality. After a couple days of phone tag, we talked on Saturday. It was a heated conversation on both ends, but we resolved he would come back on Monday to fix any issues. However, during that conversation, he openly admitted to: 1. Rushing the job because it was late, he was tired and wanted to go home and go to bed. He finished on Wednesday, yet he gave himself until Friday in the contract to complete the job. 2. Having inadequate lighting to do the job. Even though the photos that he took of his completed work looked sufficient, after seeing the photos that i had taken during the daylight and with a better light source, showing my dissatisfaction, he realized that his work was not great and blamed that on not having enough light. He was aware that neither bedroom had any lighting going into the job, yet he chose to finish the work at 8:30pm with no daylight and only one light in the room. 3. Not having the correct nozzle for his texturing machine. A better nozzle was left on another jobsite, yet he still decided to use one that he had less control of to get the job done faster. He did use the use the word "nit-picky" when I was voicing my dissatisfaction. I feel that I have a right to be nit-picky about a job in which I'm spending a large chunk of money, putting my trust in him to do good work and wanting clean looking ceilings that I will be living with for the next 5-10+ years. Bobby came back on Monday. He couldn't give me a timeframe of when he would arrive and start work because it depended on how early his guys would get out of bed and get to the job site. In the end, the work looked much better. The seams in the second bedroom were still slightly noticeable, but I made the decision to call the job complete with the idea that adding primer and paint would hide it. Unfortunately, I can still see them after painting. I can say that I will not call him again nor recommend him to a friend. read more

Bobby is trustworthy and treats you like family. He knows how to make your ideas into solidly built, sturdy reality. He tries to be transparent and clear about design changes that are necessary due to realities of construction and his team definitely went above and beyond to try and make things work exactly like we wanted. We hired Bobby and his team to install a new catio/dog run for us. While I have experience building cat furniture, overhead storage in my garage, etc, and have no fear of any DIY work, this was to be installed on the front of my house and I wanted to make sure it was professionally made and attractive. I was impressed by how into the details Bobby was during the initial design/estimate process. He outlined the exact materials he'd use, which gave me confidence that he understood the full scope of what we were looking for. I created design pictures to make it clearer what we had in mind. He had me do the leg work of finding the exact materials I had in mind for the wire mesh & lattice sections, as well as purchase the door, dog door, and door hardware to ensure they used exactly what we wanted. The entire project included: 1) Adding a new exterior door at the end of a hallway to lead into the catio (this previously was a full wall with no door). 2) Building the catio/dog run structure itself. 3) Building a door frame and hanging a door (originally we wanted him to build the door too, but due to the keycode lock we wanted he decided mid-project that we would be better off buying a door for them to install instead) for leading from the catio/dog run into the yard. 4) Adding a roof to the top of the catio/dog run to allow the pets to enjoy the outside even when it's raining. 5) Covering the outside & uncovered sections of the structure with a combination of lattice (to obscure neighbors' view of any potential dog/cat poop) and wire mesh (for better view of the nearby bird feeders for the cats) and to prevent any of the pets escape. 6) (Contracted separately by us with a landscaper, since Bobby doesn't do this himself) - Prepare/level the ground and install artificial turf for the flooring. We had this done in two parts, the ground was prepped before Bobby started, and the turf was installed once the crew was done with the worst of the stomping around for building the structure so they didn't mess up the brand new turf. This was the first time I had hired a contractor for a project with this many parts to it, so it was a bit of a learning process of how things go. Here are some of our learnings I'll share to make things easier on both sides: 1) Realize that the estimate Bobby gives at the start will NOT be the final price. We had a bit of a surprise at the end when the total project cost rose about 5K more than the estimate. Some of these were unavoidable surprises, like realizing our wall framing was 2x6, not 2x4, which meant the door we had purchased needed to be rehung on an appropriately sized frame. Others were due to the fact that Bobby is a general contractor, not a specialist, and can't perfectly predict how much work a complicated, novel project will take. He has a business to run and needs to pay his crew fairly for their time, so taking extra layers of paint to finish a wall, needing to demo more than expected due to the intricacies of your siding, etc, will be considered changes on his side from the original estimate that you'll have to square up at the end. 2) Over explain expectations. Bobby and his team are great at making things work and problem solving anything they're aware of, but they're looking at things from a builder perspective. They know how to make things easier to build, but might not realize what consequences some of those design decisions have. In our case, we didn't explicitly mention that the catio needed to be completely enclosed, and Bobby didn't know that cats could climb up to the top of an enclosure. So when we pointed out mid project "Hey, how are you closing that gap between the roof section and the wall of the house?" it took some quick thinking on Bobby's part to resolve it. He ended up closing the gap with wire mesh which accomplished the job. 3) Make sure you understand the full design that Bobby is proposing. I was a little surprised when one of the support posts was in front of our bathroom window. It's only a single post, so it doesn't obstruct the view much, but if I were to go back in time to the start of the project I would have pointed out this in my original expectations better so Bobby could adjust the design accordingly. All told, the finished project is fantastic and solidly built! There are some very minor aesthetic flaws (they used too long of nails on the roof, so they're visible on the underside, and the paint he told me to pick up for finishing up the hall isn't a perfect match), and the catio door is having some minor alignment issues now that will be easily rectified, but overall I'm thrilled with the results! Thank you! read more

My fence was literally falling down! On short notice ACGI gave me an updated and competitive bid and completed the job in about a week. The crew was fantastic and did a good job. Removed and disposed of old fence and built new (6 ft. PT and cedar). Removed other debris. I had some unique retaining wall requirements to be incorporated in the fencing project and I am very satisfied. Any concerns that came up in the project, were discussed and resolved quickly. read more

Bobby and his team did an amazing job on reinforcing the supports on our deck. The project would have been a big undertaking for a do-it-yourselfer (like myself), but I felt like were in great hands with ACGI as they gave honest opinions, feedback and consideration to our project. I would strongly recommend contacting ACGI for any and all house based projects. read more

Bobby is a great and trustworthy guy who was a pleasure to work with. He is truly sweet and thoughtful and seemed to really care about our family and getting our home ready for our new baby. He got us in quickly and at the time we needed to do a big kitchen cabinet project. In a few days he and Greg were able to transform our kitchen from a red nightmare to a lovely white and green beauty. His quote was extremely reasonable, a fraction of the cost of others we got, and he was upfront completely about the cost of the job and what it would entail. There were a few paint smudges and a couple drops on the ground when all was said and done, but they were easily fixed with some alcohol wipes within just a few minutes. We were very happy overall and we will certainly hire Bobby again in the future. read more

The Andruszko team made our house look like new in a difficult time. Given the CoVid19 month, we had to stop doing a lot but wanted to make our home feel more comfortable and improve on it too. Bobby and his crew painted our deck and made it look like brand new. He also painted our fence which brightened up our yard. The improvements were done with quality and Bobby wanted to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. His attention to quality and ensuring price was right during these hard times was above and beyond. Thank you!!! I highly suggest Andruszko Construction Group. read more

Bobby and his assistant were quick and thorough in a small project to remove some old cracked caulking in some siding trim joints that were on the higher points of my house. His quote and responses were always quick and I appreciate that the work was done within a little more than a week from first contact. read more

Bobby helped us with installing our basketball hoop on the house, he was prompt on the day of the installation and helped get almost everything done. There was some issue with not being able to get the bottom bracket fully screwed in and required that I had to go get a board to put between the house and the bracket to get it fully installed. Other than that we had a good experience with Bobby and would be comfortable leveraging him for future projects if needed. read more

Reliable, and honest. 2 qualities in a person that are hard to find, but we are glad to have found them in our contractor! Scheduled a walkthrough, and Bobby gave us a competitive quote. We were on a tight schedule, and he committed to it and was able to meet it. He did it in half the time it probably should have taken, and did not sacrifice quality! We did the final walkthrough today, and the skilled craftsmanship showed. We had a very tedious interior to paint, but not one spot on the wall was left un-painted. Even better, nothing that didn't need paint was painted. Very clean! Awesome job!! Thank you Bobby and Joey!! read more

I absolutely LOVE working with Bobby Andruszko General Contractor for Andruszko Construction Group Inc.! I have hired him multiple times in the past with great results and this time was no different! it was a late Sunday afternoon and we had this sprawling eyesore of a debris pile getting on my last nerve. I called around and got either ridiculous bids same day or good bids that could be done soon but not same day. I reached out to Bobby and, BAM, he was over in a snap, everything done extremely well, in record time for a very fair price! The thing about Bobby Andruszko is that he excels at many, MANY things so, chances are, if you need something done he's probably your best go to guy, especially if you have a time sensitive need! I am always amazed at how incredibly quick Bobby is able to get things arranged and done and not just done but done right ... every single time. Finally, Bobby's communication skills and commitment to excellence is top notch! He treats everyone like family (truly) and is incredibly dependable with a big heart to match. I can't say enough good things about Bobby and his wonderful company. Every encounter with him is a pure pleasure! I can't wait to hire him again for whatever comes up be it big or small. He's certainly the guy to make it happen! read more

In response to the owners comments 1. I'm not sure what our vacation has to do with anything. The job was started and completed prior to the vacation. The issue was that the company kept poor working hours and this persisted despite efforts to work it out. 2. The neighbors fence was not in poor condition. Our development is scarcely more than 10 years old and the fence is much newer than that. The neighbor didn't find it worth her time to pursue legal action and we instead agreed to fix the damage. 3. NONE of the overspray was cleaned, as evidenced by the photos taken after the job was completed. There was even overspray on my neighbors house. I would be happy to send photos. Additionally, I had just installed brand new screens and there is still paint on almost every screen, including a brand new $200 rear door screen. 4. My home is a newer home in a development. The paint was reaching the end of its life but had not been "neglected for years." It was originally painted with Sherwin Williams paint and that is expected to last 12-15 years. My house is just barely that old so your description is grossly exaggerated. Commutation would have greatly improved our experience in this situation. Excuses have not. read more

So we sold our house and all of a sudden we have a big crack appear on the front of the house just days before the final inspection. After reading reviews and not really sure who to call I call Bobby. Bobby tells me he will be out on Tuesday which will be the day of inspection. I agree thinking they will see we are at least trying to repair it. I get a call from Bobby on 11/31 saying he just was finishing up a job and could do the repair in a few hours if it worked for us. I told him sure knowing that we would have it done before the inspection and how much better that would be. Bobby came out and found a little more damage than what was first thought but repaired and replaced old siding and painted and caulk on Halloween night. Told him he did a great job and we would be using him in the new home. Had him out the other day to check out the projects before we move in and he is all set to start. I will update when we get done with the new home but so far he has been fair, honest and very good at getting the job done and done right. read more

WHAT A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! BEST PAINTER IN PORTLAND AREA! My review will much better with a bit of background on our project. My husband and I have been happily married now for almost two years. We learned about 8 months ago that we would be expanding our family with a beautiful baby boy! The news prompted us to move into a bigger place in anticipation for our son. My hubby has always been a "do it yourself" type. He believes he can do just about anything as good as the pros. I love him, but this is not the case :) . As we began planning out how we wanted to paint our new place we went to Sherwin Williams to pick out colors. We picked our colors and got the recommended paint and my hubster went to work! About 2 days later the majority of the project was completed. I came home from work and nearly had a meltdown! My husband is a decent painter, however, he is terrible at "cutting in." There were areas in nearly every room that his line along the ceiling and the wall looked like those scissors we were all so fond of in kindergarten. I would have to say this was the cause of my first prego meltdown :). After a bit of a "discussion" I told my husband to call Sherwin Williams and get someone to fix this! Bobby came highly recommended from the store and thank goodness they sent him our way! Despite the fact that this was not a "glamorous" paint job and was relatively small in comparison to the projects Bobby is used to, he was more than willing to help. Bobby came the next day and proceeded to fix all of my husband cut in lines. Bobby was prompt, professional, and very respectful of our home. I have never had a more positive experience a contractor! On top of the wonderful finished product we received, Bobby cut our bid in 1/2 as birthday gift to our son! This wonderful gesture combined with a wonderful paint job will make us Andruszko Painting CUSTOMERS FOR LIFE! I would recommend Bobby without hesitation to all of my family and friends! -Blair p.s. I see someone recently blew up Bobby's company on here. Although I am not in a position to discuss that review, I can tell you to take everything with a grain of salt. I have a hard time trusting the validity of that review as my experience with Andruszko Painting and Bobby is the polar opposite of what they're describing. I find it interesting that Bobby had all 5's before a 1-star rating. I think it goes back to what my father, the roofing contractor, used to tell me: "you will never be able to please every customer you work for." read more

Bobby and his team did a great job painting all the trim, gutters and doors on the Tigard Chamber building. In the walk through prior to painting, Bobby clearly communicated what prep in terms of tree trimming, etc needed to be done to prep this two story building for the paint job. This project took place over about a 10 calendar day period due to the amount of painting and 2 story work. Their prep and taping was great, and cut in work was excellent. They even went as far as replacing a trim board that they discovered had rotted and was falling apart and couldn't be painted. The work site was cleaned and picked up daily, didn't really know they had been there. Their neatness and communication ensured that the Tigard Chamber, as well as a busy coffee house and other tenants were minimally impacted. All the painting was done by brush and roller and the quality was excellent. During final walk through minor imperfections were noted and corrected. This gave our building a much needed facade improvement. read more

Bobby came out to repair a broken kitchen drawer that had come off over years of use. He called me ahead of time and got the needed measurements over the phone. He brought the replacement drawer with him the next day, he had made it in his shop before coming to replace the drawer. He was very professional and had the new drawer in place within 30 minutes read more

We had extensive trim painting to be done on 2 very tall walls of windows and a bathroom to repaint. They did both projects exceptionally well. We give them 5stars for reliability, affordability and craftsmanship. We will definitely call on them again for any future painting projects! read more

I had an issue with my subfloor. I had a contractor coming in on Monday to install laminated flooring. Not knowing anything about repairing subfloors , I called around and found Andruszko. They were able to come right over and corrected my floor problem quickly. They did a good job. read more

Andruszko Painting hired a shady, unprofessional collection agency who is constantly calling and harassing me to pay for the horrible work they did. They strayed very far from the contract and didn't use primer in many rooms as we had agreed upon. They did a lot of unauthorized work and tried to charge me for it. There are dozens of problems with the paint in every room that was done. I provided them with a specific, non toxic paint and made it clear that I did not want anything else used. When they ran out of my paint (because they wasted it by putting 4 coats over unprimed walls), they went to Sherwin Williams and bought the stuff I specifically told them not to use. Don't risk having a horrible experience like mine. Find a different painter. read more

Bobby arrived an hour late for painting and then proceeded to tell me every minute is important when I didn't remove the electrical face plates prior to his arrival. I have children at home, removing the face plates ahead of time is not a safe thing to do. When I called him on being late, he left without doing the job. He did not offer a refund. read more

We bought the living social deal and got one roomed painted for $85 dollars. Definitely was a great deal. They were super fast which was nice, but I think they didn't really do 2 full coats as there are spots where you can still see the previous color. But other then that it was a good experience. read more

My fiance and I contracted Andruszko for our new home remodeling and we are greatly satisfied and happy with the kitchen remodeling as well as the exterior and interior painting. They are very professional, punctual and without a doubt the best in the area. Their bid was kept and very competitive. We are happy to recommend this company through Yelp! read more

I can't say more about how happy I am after the work Bobby and his crew did for me. I needed some painting done on the exterior of my office building, and requested bids from several different painters. Andruzko Painting was the quickest to respond, and provided me with the most reasonable bid. The work was prompt, professional, and in good quality. I would recommend Bobby to anyone who needs painting done. read more

Bobby and his crew came out on short notice, and did fantastic work, for a very reasonable price. I will definitely be calling him out when I need additional work done! Thanks guys!!! read more

Bobby did great work for a reasonable price. We needed some posts and 2 very heavy beams holding up the patio roof replaced. Bobby worked with our schedule, resolved problems, and did a great job. Thank you Bobby and crew! read more

Bobby did quick efficient work on my water damage at a fraction of the price of other contractors estimated. He also got in within a week of our initial contact. read more

I had a very high ceiling fan that needed replacement lightbulbs, and I called around different handyperson companies. Of the few that responded (it's not the handsomest of jobs, to be honest), Bobby Andruszko came at the lower end of quotes. He showed up, realized he needed a taller ladder, went and purchased it, then came back to take the bulbs out. Realizing I had my hands full with the kids, he made a second trip to the store to purchase the necessary bulbs. Though the job went over budget, I gotta say he fixed my problem promptly and efficiently. Would not hesitate to recommend his services. read more

Bobby did great work of which we are pleased with. Would recommend this company for your painting and contracting needs.

Bobby and team came out to pressure wash and paint. Communication was good as we waited for a dry paint day. Sun came out and bobby showed as promised. Our house has not looked better. read more

Bobby and his team did a fantastic job painting the exterior of my house. I needed the job done quickly and he went out of his way to make sure it got done on time and that it was done well. He was easy to work with and very professional. I would definitely recommend him and use him again. read more

Andruszko's painting crew did a fantastic job! Came prepared with all the right tools and got the job done. Bobby went the extra mile to trim my hedges for his painters to access the area they were working in. Great work and very competitive pricing! read more

Bobby did a great job re-siding and painting our new home! He was easy to get a hold of and responded quickly to any concerns we had. He really cared about the aesthetic of the siding and getting everything just right. Our house looks great and is in better condition than when we bought it. He made sure to clean up after he was done working and didn't leave a mess. Everything went back together exactly the way he found it. Bobby even took the time to walk our exterior with us after the job was done to point out other possible trouble spots and gave us advice on general upkeep. It was very helpful. My wife and I would recommend Bobby for any siding and paint jobs that you might have. read more

Bobby of Andruszko Painting was very pleasant to work with. He was very helpful in pointing out other areas of my home that could use a little attention and help. He was very eager to help out and demonstrated an earnest interest in earning my business. The fact that he used some of the latest high tech tools to assist him in performing the job gave us the impression that we were hiring someone who was committed to ensuring that he had the best equipment to enable him to perform a premier service. read more

Bobby of Andruszko Painting is a very conscientious worker that does nice work. In fact, he came back a couple months later for the job he did for me just to make sure things were all holding up well. He saw something he wanted to tweak some, and did it as part of his original bid. Would recommend Andruszko Painting for your needs. read more

I'm a new first-time homeowner and after finally getting the keys was when I truly took a closer look at the horrible paint-job the old owners had done: old paint of a different color peeking through on the ceilings, paint sloppily fallen on the trim, missing trim in the closets, etc. Easy fixes sure, but so time-consuming and difficult to do a perfect job with all those nooks and crannies! I never truly realized the amount of money it takes to just get a home painted, especially after the huge hit of actually buying the darn thing, but Bobby was really wonderful to work with in the budget department. He itemized everything so that we could pick and choose some projects to get through right away and save the rest for later down the road when we recuperated from the initial expenses. We ended up deciding to paint some of the easier rooms ourselves in 1 weekend (wow - SO MUCH WORK), but Bobby and team did some of the much more difficult items that I would never get around to doing: ripping out old trim, installing/painting new trim, painting doors, window sills, and also helping us undertake a project of ripping out the only carpet in the whole home to be replaced with some laminate flooring. They did everything in just a few short days as well and all while I was at work so the inconvenience was minimal, but at the end, the impact was huge. What a gigantic difference to just have some new paint and trim around the home to freshen it up - because of Bobby and his team, I finally started to feel like this was MY home. read more

We had what we thought might be an unusual job. We wanted trim repaired, replaced, flashing added and painting done around our exterior windows. We weren't sure how to go about hiring someone to do this, as it wasn't siding, new windows or straight painting we needed. We wanted someone licensed, bonded, insured. We began searching for a contractor. We found Bobby on Yelp. We read his reviews, checked out the Contractor's Board. We left messages with quite a few contractors but Bobby understood what we wanted. On the walk-around prior to the job to give us an estimate he had some suggestions, but didn't push any "hard sell". Hubby talked with him on the phone while I was onsite. We had him work up estimates for some other projects we may want in the future. We met for the contract signing, he was able to start work in our timeline. His hours are a little odd, but this was noticed on yelp prior to signing up with him (generally 1pm to 8-9pm). The weather situation was less than optimal for working outside (high 90s,low100s) but Bobby and his crew powered through-we just made sure they had plenty of water available. He had to miss a couple of days (one a holiday-that's a given, the other due to the terrible smoke and ash from the gorge fire), and he still came in under the project timeline per contract by 4 days! We ran into some problems (dry rot-couldn't see it until work was started as it was underneath) and had some 'add-ons' but he kept the cost in check. All items of contract were fulfilled along with some "value added extras" involving other windows, some caulking and painting we figured we would do when we have the body of the house painted. Bobby and his crew was very polite and personable. From what we witnessed, we would recommend ACGI-Andruszko Construction Group Inc. read more

It was great working with Bobby and Jamie to get my daughter's room painted. She was very particular about what she wanted, and they worked with us very well. They came in on a weekend to get it done, and the result turned out awesome! These people are friendly and genuine -- great to work with! Thanks for doing a great job! read more

A little concerned about his attitude. He called us slightly irritated that we had not returned his call concerning work to be done at our house and was pushy about it. This was on my wife's cell phone voice mail. However, we never heard of him and have never heard of his company till that phone call, so whoever was supposed to get that call may get a similar call. Despite his reviews, his attitude would make me think twice about using him. I wouldn't have written this except I see another person's review was also unhappy with his attitude. read more

Okay, it's been about 6 months since Bobby painted my living room as part of a Living Social deal. He did an amazing job and I am still pleased with the results. I recommend 100%. read more

These guys cared about how I felt about their work. Bobby takes pride in his work, his company and cleanliness. All were excellent. I would recommend him. I will use his again. read more

Bobby provided a bid on a large commercial painting project for me. he was the first contractor to respond and he did so by working late on a Friday night to meet my timing requirements. he spent an hour here and took measurements with the laser while we walked the job any other professional and detailed proposal ready the next business day. Very impressive. read more
