My living room has a cathedral ceiling that needed repairs and repainting--a difficult job requiring scaffolding, etc. Chicago Painters did excellent work! Their crew was prompt, courteous, and thoroughly professional. Very pleased. read more

I had several estimates done and Chicago Painters was one of the most reasonable for cost. They were very communicative, very responsive and got the entire job completed in a day and a half, which was a lot less time than expected. They did an amazing job, and the paint job is super neat/clean. They are pros! I would highly recommend them! read more

I can't get enough of these guys. We had the crew at Chicago Painters repaint our entire condo - from the walls to the ceilings to the trim on all doors and windows. We have 12 foot ceilings, so there was a great deal of detail work with all of the trim. I'm very picky, but these guys nailed it. The crew was highly professional and led by a very talented lead painter. They were timely, courteous, humorous, and helpful in general, not to mention meticulous. It was a pleasure to have them in our home and the end result looks fantastic! Then, we had them come back a few weeks later to tackle our rooftop deck. The job was much faster than they anticipated and the owner Jim gave us a discount because the job was so speedy. Honest contractors in Chicago? Now that's just outrageous! Finally, our Association is considering them for our multi-story egress staircase and back decking - a large job. I hope they land it - they deserve it. Can't recommend Chicago Painters enough. THANK YOU! read more

Update: CPI really showed their dedication to customer service. After my previous review, the owner contacted me right away with a thoughtful email, and offered to have someone come out to do the necessary touch ups. Very professional, and I appreciated the follow up. I will definitely use them again! read more

Second time we have trusted Chicago Painters Inc and we are utterly thrilled with the quality of work, professionalism and service. This time we needed our baby room/office slash everything room painted before we had family in for thanksgiving...5 days later we have a fresh, bright room ready for guests! Thanks you! read more

How do I love thee, Chicago Painters? Let me count the ways. Truly, words cannot express what an amazing experience I had with this group. I wanted my new place painted prior to moving in. I received several estimates and chose Chicago Painters for several reasons. First, they were very competitively priced, but they weren't the lowest bid I received (though they were close). I ended up picking them anyway because they are adored by so many Yelpers, because their 30-day free touch-up policy is fantastic, and because I just had a really good feeling about them after talking with Clay, who did the estimate for me (thanks, Clay!). Great decision on my part. First, props to Jim and Cheryl in the office. Cheryl was so great getting everything set up for me, and answering my questions along the way. Jim called me the day before the start of the job to go over everything and also to clarify some of my paint finish choices. I am so glad he took the time to do this because otherwise I would have ended up with something I wasn't expecting. Flash forward to the actual job: Danny and Ricardo were the two painters who worked on this project. THEY. WERE. AWESOME! Always on time, every time (I was the one who was late once...sorry!). They were so nice and professional and did an AMAZING job, and cleaned up after themselves very well. I could not be happier with the quality of their work. Here's my biggest reason for praising Chicago Painters: I made a poor color choice. Unfortunately I didn't realize this until an entire hallway had already been painted. I called Cheryl freaking out, and said I wanted to change colors. They took on the extra work with no problem, at a VERY minimal additional cost, and still managed to finish the entire job EARLY! I mean, wow. What a great experience. I know they'll be back to touch up anything the movers scuff when they move all my stuff in (please movers, do not scuff the pretty paint, PLEASE!). I would use Chicago Painters again in a heartbeat, and I strongly recommend them to everyone. Thanks so much for going above and beyond and doing such a wonderful job! read more

Our cabinets look incredible! They were incredibly professional and were able to work with us around a hectic schedule. I would def recommend! read more

These guys were great when I needed someone to repaint an entire house I just bought. They were available within a couple days of booking. There were tons of colors to cover and they managed to do it well! Everyone was super professional and I am very satisfied with their work. They won't be the cheapest quote you get, but with painting you typically get what you pay for, and in this case, I'm glad I did. read more

So excited about my new paint job. Painters were prompt, showed up on time, cleaned up better than I would!! The work is excellent, communication with the main office superb. Can't say enough good about this company. read more

HIGHY RECOMMMAND!!! We had previously painted all 1,200 sq ft ourselves 12 years ago. We decided we're to old to that now, so our friend recommended Chicago Painters. There was an initial scheduling mix up, but when they started, WOW!!! They were quiet, professional, and on time. We do a lot of color blocking, which requires a fair amount of cut ins when painting. They were able to accommodate that and delivery crisp, straight lines, without using tape. The price was reasonable for the amount of work needed, and it included moving heavy furniture, and a 30 day touch up guarantee. read more

I picked Chicago Painters for a commercial painting job in the city. They were quick with their estimate, priced right, and started promptly. The experience was great because they communicated well, worked on my timeline (Started at 6AM to ensure business operations were not interrupted), and completed the job to perfection. Painters were, as many have noted, professional, helpful and courteous. When one of our paints didn't match, they made an extra trip to the store for no charge to get the correct color. We will use them again. read more

Professional- courteous- kind- swift- honest- affordable! From start to finish this was a great and easy process with outstanding results. Paint can make a difference when selling a condo- BUT a great paint job can make a BIG $$$$$$$$$ difference!!! Thanks for giving us a competitive edge read more

We are repeat customers of Chicago Painters. We tried to paint our own porch and got about 40% of the way done before giving up and getting a bid on finishing the rest because I figured it would take another three months to finish it myself while completely neglecting my family!!!!!!! Jason worked us into a very very busy schedule with horrible weather for outdoor projects (constant rain and humidity). Kris, one of his best painters, headed up the project. It turned out gorgeous. Their guys worked cleanly, efficiently, and were absolute professionals. You can't go wrong with this Chicago Painters!! read more

We moved into a new home that badly needed paint/updating. We received a fair quote rather quickly from this company and the service only continued to exceed our expectations. Our lead painter, Oscar, was fantastic. Very clean and professional, not to mention super quick. The job was done quicker than expected. The paint job was flawless. They offer a 30 day free touch up warranty, we didn't need to use it because everything was perfect but we liked having that reassurance. Highly recommend. read more

Thank you very much for the exception job your painters did to our condo. They were prompt, courteous and clean. I would highly recommend Chicago painters. read more

They did a wonderful job painting our entire home. The work was finished within the quoted timeframe, they even worked on a Saturday to ensure final touch-ups were handled effectively. Everything was perfectly done, no mess, no problems. Best of all, they allowed us to stay on site while they did the work. Couldn't be happier with the job they did. read more

We wanted our entire home repainted prior to moving in and the crew made sure it happened! They were very clean, thorough and did an amazing job. I also want to give a shoutout to Cheryl who assisted in coordinating everything for our paint job. Cheryl was a delight to work with and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy & the job would get done in time. THANK YOU!! read more

Just had my living room and dining room painted by this exceptional group. It came together without a hitch. I am so pleased with how everything looks. The color change has made the rooms feel joyful. The painters didn't bat an eyelash when I said I wanted 3 different colors. They were professional and worked non-stop for 2 days. Cheryl and all employees were helpful and attentive to every detail. You will not be disappointed with their work. read more

Great job. The painters were professional, detailed and courteous. I made a mistake in the color for one wall and they did it over without making me feel like a jerk. And dealing with Cheryl was a pleasure. She is kind and has a heart. All in all, a good experience. I would use them again in a heartbeat. read more

For quote: showed up with mask and very courteous of taking off shoes and giving an estimate (took 15 minutes- quick and easy). A few days later, appointment was made. Cheryl and Maureen were very helpful, organized, and professional. The painter, Salvador, arrived on time and had everything needed for the bathroom paint job! Salvador did such an incredible job that I didn't have to take advantage of the 30 day free touch up (and believe me I looked!!). Everything from beginning to end was phenomenal! I thought $240 for the single bathroom was very reasonable and again the team/company are highly recommended! read more

This is my third time using Chicago Painters for painting projects, and I won't go anywhere else. They have painted 14 foot walls in our condo with ease, navigated second-floor cathedral ceilings in our new home and been available on short notice to accommodate a last-minute painting request. Every part of Chicago Painters process is seamless. After filling out the job request form, Bill patiently explains what goes into the estimate and possible scenarios, making sure to note that costs above and beyond the estimate will not happen without your consent first. After confirming the project, Jim calls to confirm details and is available to talk through options (from paint finishes to color decisions, timing, etc.), as well as accommodating schedules so the job works with our activities. Finally, the painters we had for our latest job, Eduardo and Ramiro, were the best yet. They showed up on time, wore masks and were very respectful of our space. In addition, they were SO efficient - I couldn't believe how quickly they completed two coats. After finishing, they helped my husband clean up / move furniture, leaving no trace that there had been a major painting project moments before. Thank you, Jim and team - we love our results! read more

Professional and fair. Online payment and invoicing was seamless.

In every house we've had, I've always done my own painting. But with our current home's small downstairs bath I finally met my match (incredibly cramped space, too small for a roller brush in most places, and covering up a hideous grasshopper dark green color). I was pretty leery of hiring a painting service but the Yelp page for Chicago Painters made me feel comfortable taking the plunge. This is definitely a case of well-deserved 5 star status, and I'm sooooo happy that I decided to let the professionals handle this particular headache. Arranging the appointment was fast and easy. My painter arrived right on time, was very courteous, and incredibly speedy. I had planned to work from home the entire day, but he was in and out in about 2 hours (and that included set up and clean up). Best of all, the bathroom looks great! So much better than I could have ever done myself. If you've got a headache room to paint too, it is so worth the money to just let the pros handle it. read more

Chicago Painters did a beautiful job of painting the lobbies in our association's buildings. They also painted an owner's entire condominium. Most important their level of professionalism, friendliness, customer contact was outstanding. They keep you informed throughout the whole project, you never have to guess about what's going on. We will definitely call on them again. I highly recommend them. Christine - Board Member read more

The painters pried opened a cabinet file and stole $1,000 that was locked up in it. No help from the owner to get it resolved. WARNING: DO NOT LET THEM IN YOUR HOUSE!!! Nice response. Trying to blame the kids or other family members to steal their own money. You guys are pathetic!! It's a secure building and nobody else entered the home. There was no conflicting stories. They didn't check if the money was there right away because they didn't even think of that happening. You say you know other people were in the unit, please let us know who that was. You think they pay you $5000 for the job and try to scam you for $1000?? They are not gonna go far with that scam. You should take responsibility for your employees actions. I'm pretty sure they denied everything, that's what criminals do. How about this theory since you're big on that, maybe your employees tried to steal at other locations but never found anything or never got caught. Obviously you haven't thought things through and didn't want to be responsible for the theft... Good luck with that. read more

Chicago Painters recently painted my condo. They were able to give me a virtual estimate based off of the real estate listing before I closed. The owner called me the night before the job began to confirm the colors and all of the details. The team did an amazing job, especially with all of the trim and detailing. I'm super happy with the work and would highly recommend them. read more

Fast, responsive, reasonably priced, and very professional. Will absolutely consider for all future painting work.

Unfortunately, after a decent painting job, we noticed our locked filing cabinet had been pried open which contained our children's wallets. Of course, the cash was gone and our filing cabinets damaged. We offered to deal with this directly, but after an agreement verbally to correct the ALLEGED situation. Nothing was done. If you use them, make sure nothing of value is left in your home, so you can avoid any ALLEGED situations too. read more

Chicago Painters was an absolutely fabulous company to work with! We had bought a new house and this was our first time dealing with a painting project so we had a ton of questions and felt a little overwhelmed by the whole thing. Enter Chicago Park Painters to the rescue! The owner Jim is responsive, informative, patient, and professional and the entire team was top notch. My painting crew was so great-- listening to all my many questions and handling every request with ease. Martin-- the crew lead made sure everything was percect and our project manager Maureen was extremely responsive day or night. They even offer a color consultation with a designer which saves HOURS of angst over picking the right color and ensured our color choices would be perfect. The best part is they offer a 30 day touch up so you don't have to worry about anything. AND I found their prices to be very fair/competitive especially for the quality of service you receive. If you need a painting project done-- look no further than Chicago painters! read more

Everything looks great! Eduardo and his team did a fantastic job and were very easy to work with. They left the area clean after each day and wore masks the whole time. We will definitely be using them again! read more

We really appreciated the timely estimates and initiation of our painting projects as we just moved to our new condo. We hired Chicago Painters twice after discovering some additional cracks and drywall damage in a separate room from the first project, and both times the folks with Chicago Painters were amazing and professional. They were quick and always cleaned up afterwards. We're very happy with the service and their competitive pricing. Special shoutout to Zyggi, who went the extra mile and painted additional areas with the paint we bought for this project. read more

Absolutely perfect! We recently purchased a condo with some interesting (read very dark) paint choices. Our realtor had given us a name but they didn't call back. A quick Yelp search later and we found Chicago Painters. We initially called because they are veteran owned. Both being veterans we wanted to support the community. We stuck with it because they were FAST. Cheryl is quick and super responsive. The guys worked overtime to get our project done before our move in date. They worked with the heavy color and were always detailed in explaining their estimates. I walked into the condo half way through the job and was just astounded with how great it looked. I cannot rave about Chicago Painters enough. they will be our first call if we ever need painters again! read more

Chicago Painters painted my condo which I rent out. I needed someone to do the job quickly, so I could show the condo. They were able to schedule and complete the job within 1 weeks time, and they did a perfect job! I also had some plaster that was cracking, and they repaired it perfectly. My condo really looks beautiful now, and I've gotten a great response in potential renters because it looks so good. read more

We are so impressed and love the work done by Chicago painters. We had the exterior of our farm house paint with 3 colors and stain and the place looks phenomenal! The painters showed up earlier and worked hard every day. We would highly recommend them for all paining needs! read more

In the end, it was a positive experience working with Chicago Painters Inc., however, there were definitely a lot of issues. On day 1, the painter (Mike) who came worked fairly slow so what was supposed to be a one day project ran over into the next day. The next day, he never showed up and the company could not get ahold of him. He was supposed to arrive at 8AM. Cheryl, the main point of contact was extremely rude to me on the phone and actually called me and yelled at me about my negative Yelp review. This was very unprofessional and surprising, especially based on other reviews. She offered no resolution to our problem and was not sympathetic to the fact that we had rooms halfway painted, furniture moved out of rooms and were waiting to put our house back in order. Eventually I got in touch with Jim and from that point on, the experience was nothing but positive. He was able to send in painters to come immediately and they did a great job and worked quickly. Within three hours, the job was done. At the end of the day, I would use them again, so long as I would not have to deal with Cheryl or Mike. The other three painters and Jim we worked with were great and professional. Jim went out of his way to make up for the initial unpleasant experience and I thank him for that. read more

I have used them before and they did a great job. Just used them again to paint my apartment and they did another excellent job. Also had them patch a pretty serious hole in my stairwell and you can't even tell there was a hole there now. Great customer service, they get back to you fast for a quote. Also reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again. read more

Highly recommend this team! Professional, clean, responsive. I'm redoing my office and since I work from home, I only had certain time frames available for them to work. Incredibly accommodating and respectful. read more

They stained the decks for our entire condo - stairs and balconies. Did a fantastic job - professional, polite and very good proactive follow up. A real gem that I would strongly recommend. read more

Everything and everyone from estimate to the paint job was professional and top quality. Would definitely use Chicago Painters again!

I contacted Chicago Painter's before the pandemic to get an estimate. They were quick to reply and schedule an estimate in home. I ended up waiting a couple months to see how everything would work out with the pandemic. I contacted Chicago Painters for a new estimate about two weeks ago because I had done some painting in the meantime. Again, they were quick to schedule a new estimate (in home, which I preferred) and painters were out to my home in the next few days. They painted the living room, dining room and short hallway. It only took 8 hours and they called when they were nearly finished. I am happy with the results and so glad to finally have all the walls done. read more
