Started out with 4 companies. Got it down to 2. Chose Creative. Made the right choice. Alex and his crew were very pleasant to work with. Very happy with the work they did. Painted interior and exterior. Was concerned by one review. Asked Alex about it. It was from the previous owner. Alex has taken over the company and from my experience you can't go wrong. Showed up on time and left everything cleaned up. read more

Creative Painting Systems did an excellent job on our home in Heritage Wake Forest! We needed painting done on the exterior and interior of our home. We needed it done in a timely manner and they came through for us. Phyllis is great to work with, and their crew was nice and worked hard. They are very skilled at what they do, and we very much appreciate their services. Their free quote was reasonable. I had some additional items to add to the job that they took them on with no hesitation. They went above and beyond with their work. I would highly recommend Creative Painting Systems for any of your interior or exterior painting needs. Our house looks amazing! Thank you CPS! - Susan E. read more

Because Creative Painting Systems did an exceptional job painting the exterior of my house several years ago, I hired them to paint the interior this year. Phyllis Born worked up an estimate within days. She found several problem areas I hadn't noticed and documented the details into the estimate. She noticed that I was cleaning the baseboards in prep for the job, and she told me that wasn't necessary as the painters would do that. And when the painters arrived, indeed they were very thorough. They feather sanded surfaces, shone lights on the walls and marked areas requiring their attenion. Phyllis walked with them and pointed out items documented in the estimate. The paint job is exceptional: wavy seams were straightened, woodwork stands out and is clearly defined, water damage spots are invisible and the stencilling is gone! When I realized what a difference their craftsmanship produced, I asked Phyllis to add several small jobs,and although they increased the job time a few days, she incorporated the work and it got done. I am so impressed with this company ... in particular the cooperative staff and the competitive price .... I highly recommend them for interior or exterior painting. read more

This review is solely based on my interaction with the company and not actual work. We recently purchased a new home and were in need of having the interior painted. I lined up a handful of painters based on reviews from around the internet. The saving grace in this instance is the Owner's wife. I dealt with via email and she was always quick to reply and seemed friendly. Meeting the actual owner? That's a totally different story. I had high hopes because most of his reviews are pretty glowing. He came to the house and immediately rubbed my husband the wrong way. He looked like he was angry. He came into the house and didn't bother really making small talk. Like I said, he apparently was angry. Maybe because he had called to move our appointment up and unfortunately I could not accommodate him. He got his tools, measured the house, wrote up an estimate and left. He barely shook my husband's hand on the way out. Even with glowing reviews and a good price, I could not in good conscience give him our business. You only have one time to make a great impression and he failed. read more

What an amazing transformation! The crew from CPS were very professional and kept their work areas very tidy. The work was impeccable. We could not be happier! Thank you George and Phyllis for putting together a great crew! read more

I just had my house exterior painted by Creative Painting Systems this week and it looks great! I must say, after reading the other 2 star review here, I have to totally disagree with Melisa S. I don't expect a contractor to be my best friend at the door, but be a professional business person and be confident in his/her product/skills, which is what George is. What he promised, he delivered..plus some! In fact, the other person reviewed a company without actually have them doing the work, which in my opinion isn't a company review at all. So here is a review from someone who actually had their house painted. The owner George is one of the most caring contractors I have met. I wish there were more like him. He's a family man; he's served our country in the US Armed Forces; he holds his company and employees to the highest standards and cares for them greatly. He went well beyond to please me as his client and help me make smart, educated choices as we moved through the project. George was on the job daily to make sure all was going as he desired and that I was continually pleased. His attention to detail was beyond my expectations and his crew is fantastic. In fact, I even gave George specific instructions regarding his careful attention to my next door neighbors lawn, as our houses are very close together, as well as washout areas and equipment storage, and he followed my wishes exactly, taking the extra time every day to meet my needs. George and his crew located rotten boards on my home that I was not aware of and replaced them without any addition to the quote. I had my previous house painted before by a different contractor who's quote was low and so I took the job. But the difference between a low cost paint job and a professional paint job is night and day. Spending the right money the first time is going to save me a lot of headache and costs down the road. I am fully confident that this paint job is going to last a long time. So, if you want a new friend, try a meet-up group. If you want your house painted superbly by a professional company, I highly recommend Creative Painting Systems, George, and his entire crew. The thing I DO agree about with regard the other reviewer is that yes, George's wife, like George, is also on top of her game. The quote was presented to me on time, professionally and she communicated with me very quickly and triple checked with me about paint color choices and the timing of the services provided. She told me a start date well in advance and they started the very day they stated, even after endless days of rain. For a painter, that takes a sharp team and careful planning/estimating to stay on time in this summer's kind of weather. Scott C. read more

Creative Painting Systems run by George Born is an outstanding company if you want a super job done on painting your house inside or out. I have used other painters and they do not meet the quality that this company delivers. Whole interior of house was painted and it is like having a new house - only far better than when the house was built. They caulk and prep everywhere and the results are wonderful. I had gaps in crown moldings and window moldings, popped screws in sheetrock especially in the stairway and badly 'skinned' walls from moving furniture. Now all the sins are removed. read more

I rarely post reviews on Yelp but these guys deserve some props. We wanted to have the ceilings throughout our house repainted a lighter color. Creative was recommended to us by a neighbor as was another contractor and although Creative was the higher bidder, we felt confident that they would do better work. We were right. George and his crew did an outstanding job. They were super careful about protecting our walls, floors, and furniture. Their painting was impeccable, and they gladly accommodated a couple of special requests that were outside of the agreed scope of work. They also finished well ahead of schedule. We wouldn't hesitate to hire Creative Painting again in the future. Highly recommended! read more

George and his team are simply awesome. Not only were they the most responsive and timely in coming out to do an estimate for us, they were also the most reasonably priced. George and Phyllis are on top of their game when it comes to following up and providing detailed estimates on the expected timeline - if not earlier. This is something that I've found to be particularly rare when it comes to contractors of any kind. We had the exterior of our home painted (including some rotted siding and woodwork replaced) as well as some interior work done. Chris came out and power washed the house the week before the crew was scheduled to paint. Very courteous and did a great job. George came out to the site every day that his crew was on the job to make sure that we were completely satisfied and that all work met his high standards (5 days total). Johnny was the site manager for the week and he was fantastic. Very professional, courteous, and most of all - skilled. Same goes for Tony. Great guys. If anything didn't meet their standards on the first pass or they just didn't like how the paint looked in a certain place, they put another coat on until it was up to par. These guys truly stand behind their work. My neighbors have already asked for George's info to schedule the crew to come out and do some work for them. We feel confident about the exterior of our house now, especially knowing that it is backed by the 7 year warranty that George extends for all of his work. If you need any painting done - interior, exterior, or both - don't hesitate to give these guys a call. I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

We interviewed 3 different painters and right away decided on Creative Painting because George was genuine and up front with all the questions we asked and there were a lot. He and his crew were polite and easy to work with. The job started when George quoted and all the workers showed up on time and left the lot clean of all debris. I would highly recommend Creative Painting for all of your painting and associated home repairs. These people are quick to respond and trustworthy. read more

I don't know if it's even possible to get better service and quality painting than this! It's been a month since Alex and his team painted the first floor in my house. I still havent put up the art work since I'm enjoying the painted walls. It's that good. Fair price, quick, professional work and super nice team. I will be a returning customer for sure. read more

Creative Painting is just finishing my home and have to say this was the best experience ever. When I contracted with them I asked about a deposit and George said "not required when we are done pay me". The painters showed up at 7:30 in the morning and worked just about non-stop each day. After three days they were finished and they did an excellent job. There is nothing I could complain about and with the other reviewer, for all future painting need I will contact Creative Painting Systems. read more

I couldn't be happier with the job that George and his crew did. Our house looks great! They were very communicative and always showed up on time. Everyone who worked on the house was professional, polite, and efficient. They cleaned up every day and never left our house or yard a mess. I'll definitely be calling Creative Painting Systems the next time I need work done. read more
