This guy is not a painter!!! he is a thief and a con!!! he uses old paint mixed with water, blaims all bad reviews on his brother-in-law... a five day job took him 21 days and still did not complete... I had to keep telling him what he was doing was not acceptable... bad all around!!! he always had excuses why he could not make it on some days!!!! I had hidden camera and he would show up at 9 and leave by 11. I did give him first deposit... then the second payment was not full payment... I was onto his game!!!! constantly changing his phone number... currently it is 973-570-6200. I did a background check on him.... his house not in his name... his brown mini van not in his name... I used my resources from work to get his info... he does not show up in court... he has judgments against him, but you will not get anything when he shows no assests... just a heads up, if you want to get scammed he is your guy!!! read more

Total scam! Also goes by Joe Anthony & Pro Paint. Red flags all over! Couldn't finish half exterior of house in 60 days. Covered up paint labels on can. He used cheaper grade of paint that was stated in contract! Had to use 1 star to post review! He deserves 0. He is not a painter, strictly a scam artist!! read more

DO NOT PAY THIS OWNER - JOE. The reviews on here are spot on and I can prove it. We are in the middle of a new construction job locally and the owner Joe just quit the job. QUIT THE JOB! Not only did he not complete the job, he rolled out paint WITHOUT throwing down tarps thus getting paint spatter all over our brand new tile bathrooms!! He has our money and supplies at this point. That is just the beginning... I dare you to try and have this guy pick up his phone and get him on the job. I will post the entire text message conversation so you can see for yourselves. Joe tried telling me that the paint splatter could be due to 'other contractors' working in the house - I am guessing the plumber and electrician!!! Get out of here, don't even think twice about hiring this guy OR paying him. And DON'T FEEL BAD about it. He is a scammer through and through. Joe from Anthony's Painting is deceptive, unreliable and most importantly a SUB PAR CONTRACTOR. ATTENTION ALL CONTRACTORS AND HOMEOWNERS; do not hire this company EVER. Too bad I can't pick a half star or even quarter of a star to rate him. All the negative reviews couldn't be more spot on. read more

Update: I am continuing to find poor workmanship. I also discovered he wasn't using the paint we agreed upon and that I paid extra for. He was using home depot cheap paint. Scam artist. He will not complete your job. He took our 3rd payment, painted for 1 day and then disappeared for 2 weeks. Then said that he cannot complete the job. 1/2 of my house is painted. The low price is to get you to sign the contract, he just wont finish. DO NOT USE THIS GUY. 0 stars read more

This person has been impossible to work with. We started our contract with him almost ONE YEAR AGO and we are still hounding him down to complete the job he was paid to do. He is unresponsive to phone calls and will only respond to text messages after many days have passed, just to give us the run around and more excuses. He is extremely unprofessional, unreliable, and dishonest. He has pretty much walked away with our money. Please do not make the same mistake we did and stay away from this crook! read more

This co. Does not complete work that they have started. Once they are paid they may say they will come back to complete job and never do! They are crooks. Do not use them ! read more

We too were screwed by Joe Cacciato of Joe Anthony's Painting! He also goes by: Anthony's Painting, Paintnewjersey.com , Bricktown Painting, Pro Paint. His work is sloppy at best! My husband hired him because he's the only painter who called us back and he was cheap. We have globby drips of paint dried on our walls, and after he had painted our ceiling he must've accidently hit the ceiling while doing the wall because he tried to go over it, and now part of our ceiling doesn't match, it's clearly discolored! My bathroom is a mess from him cleaning out his tray and brushes, paint splatter that did not come off of the wall and floor tiles. The paint peels off of the wall like rubber, and he did not cover micro thin rub off type decals in my child's room, he ONLY does ONE coat of paint at HIS discretion! What a load of CRAP! Needless to say, we had to hire someone else to re-do the mess he created! He also didn't finish the job, and when I emailed him about it, he got nasty with me and never even offered to refund me! Oh, and by the way, he scores a BIG FAT "F" with the Better Business Bureau! I'll include a link to that at the bottom. He'll tell you he's a church goer and his wife is involved with the homeschooling co-op in Wall N.J. (Child care in the nursery). I wonder if she knows what a winner her husband is! http://www.bbb.org/new-jersey/business-reviews/painting-contractors/anthony-s-painting-in-brick-nj-90095165/ STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM THIS CROOK AS POSSIBLE! IF YOU'VE HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE WITH HIM, POST POST POST WHEREVER YOU CAN SO NO ONE ELSE BECOMES A VICTIM!!! read more

We called Anthony's Painting and he came by and gave us an estimate for powerwashing and painting our home. We gave him a 575.00 deposit as he said he would buy the paint and start immediately. After he had our deposit he completely blew us off and wouldn't return our phone calls or return our deposit. He said he used the deposit to buy paint under his business account at Home Depot and they were holding the paint for him, though when we called Home Depot they had never heard of him and both the manager of the store and manager of the paint department said there was no paint on hold. At this point we knew we were being scammed and started the Small Claims Court Filing. He did not show up for court and we won the case, though he has never returned our deposit or contacted us back in anyway. It is a shame he took advatage of us and in the future i will warn all people in the community to stay away from Anthony's Plumbing, Anthony Cacciato, http://www.paintnewjersey.com or any other name he goes by to take advantage of people. read more

Stay away from this painter! Colors mismatched and disappeared before the job was finished.

This painter came recommended through localpainterquotes.com. He gave us what we thought was a fair estimate and told him we would be starting the job in the next few months, no need for him to juggle his schedule around. He called weekly for the next two months to see when we would start. When we were finally ready we called him back up, agreed on dates to do the work, and he told us he would be sending us a contract the next morning through email. It never arrived. A week later I emailed him, no response. I called a couple of days later, less than one week before the scheduled start date, he did not answer. We then received a short email saying simply he would not paint our house. I guess he found a higher paying job and dumped us last minute. Worst of all, I had already scheduled a day out of work for him. Very unprofessional way to deal with a customer, if you are going to cancel a job at least have the decency to call. If I hadn't called him I wonder if he would have contacted me at all or just not shown up on the morning of the job. read more
