I have held off for a while making this review. I do believe that the people who work here are very nice people, but I still feel the need to share our experience. We hired Great Expectations to paint our interior of our house in November 2021. At first, the experience was good. Lief was the person who came out to give estimates and check out what we needed done. He is very nice, friendly, & seemed knowledgable. We broke the project up into two portions, the main floor & bedrooms/bathrooms, and then the basement. I will note that they were accommodating to a schedule change we had to do last minute, due to an unexpected hospital visit (thank you for that). The basement was done first. Rob was the lead painter on the job. They claimed him to be the "most experienced interior painter" that they had. He had help from 2 other (questionably sketchy) workers on most days, though some days he was alone. Some days the workers would say they would be there at X time, and would just not show up. Everything in the basement was to be painted EXCEPT our wooden windowsills, and two rooms (which we had stored our furniture and our belongings in. The rest of the basement was virtually empty other than a couch which they covered and our king bed). Well, Rob did not properly close off the two rooms where our belongings were held. There was overspray on EVERYTHING. My bed, my comforter, suitcases, my clothes & blankets, furniture. They said they would compensate us for whatever we had receipts for... I've owned my things for years and don't have receipts for everything and only was able to be compensated for roughly a $100 comforter. When we complained about the overspray Lief said that Rob would clean it, but he didn't. I watched him "clean" the front of the rooms near the openings but the overspray went clear to the back of the room too. It's been 2 years and I am still finding and cleaning overspray. Just laziness and complete disregard for others things. 5 minutes of prep time to really seal off those rooms could have saved all of my belongings from being dusted with white paint. (I wish that was the last of the overspray saga, but they dusted our washer and dryer upstairs as well.) Then there was a "miscommunication" between Lief and Rob, and they painted over our beautiful wooden windowsills with white. I balled like a baby ya'll. Like really, really cried. We always checked every night the progress - and were able to somehow get the paint off of the windowsills with warm water and hours and hours of scrubbing. There is still white that we just can't get off. (They said they would fix them but obviously never did). One day, one of the painting assistant decided to just bring his girlfriend to work. I turned the corner to a complete stranger standing in my hallway looking around my house (at areas they weren't even painting in, mind you). That was enough for me to hide all our medications. Just really not a comforting feeling to be left out of the loop on who is in your house. All It would've taken was to ask, instead I was left feeling sketched out. Overall, the house does look nice - but the experience to get us to this point was truly not something I would recommend. When you are paying "Professionals" you expect a certain level of professionalism & care, and I just don't feel like we got that. I'm not making this review to shame anyone, just hope it's helpful for the business owner & future customers alike. read more

Be aware that this company takes advantage of people. We got a quote from them to paint our rental condo. He knew we were in a hurry so we could get it painted quickly so we could get a new tenant in asap. He quoted us over 8k to paint a two story condo that is only 1200 square feet. Said he could start immediately so we said okay. After speaking with friends they advised us to get a second opinion.. That quote ( from someone we used before) was 3k.. When we called to cancel they rudely said that they had already ordered the paint and we would need to pay for it.. We never signed a contract.. BE aware!!! read more

Excellent job, did everything they said, work wasn't perfect initially but they came back and made everything right and made sure we were happy. Would highly recommend them. read more

We've had Great Expectations out to do a few different paint projects, both inside and outside painting. they do a great job, very thorough, with attention to detail. They are our go to painters for all of our home projects. We have a few more projects ahead and we will be calling them again. We recommend that you do too. read more

We looked at a few companies and regular guys but after speaking and meeting the team at Great Expectations we knew they were the Pros. Since meeting them we have had them do another place for us too. Very professional and helpful. We highly recommend them to everyone we know or meet. Give them a call for your next paining needs. read more

Lack of communication, unprofessional staff and took much longer to finish than what was planned at time of estimate. The completed project was satisfactory but not extraordinary. read more

I would have liked to given them a good review, but they never showed up for the appointment that they scheduled with me...they didn't even call to cancel read more

My husband and I had Great Expectations paint the exterior of our house and stain our deck and they did a beautiful job. They were on time, paid attention to detail and got the job done in a timely manner. We are highly satisfied! My dogs even liked them lol. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Definitely give them a call for your painting needs you wont be disappointed! read more

Great Expectations painted our shop/out building. Leith responded quickly when we called them and he was out to take a look at the job the next day and gave us a very reasonable quote. They scheduled the work within 10 days and sent a young man, Josh, who was very professional, well mannered, and he worked quickly, capably, efficiently, and conscientiously. He did all the prep work and completed the job beautifully in 3 days. Josh and Leith were even very patient with me when I started to go wobbly on the color, but I love the way it turned out. read more

I want to put MINUS 10 stars for this company. Do not and I repeat DO NOT USE THEM....Over the years I've used many painting companies and I have to say a three year old child would do a better job. We have a big deck and we were assured it would look pristine. 2 months later and many headaches and it is crap..When they say they will come they NEVER do. Don't be fooled by a guy named Leaf. Talks a good game but is fake as hell. These people have no painting experience. They show pictures on their website that can't be real. They probably went and found a home that looked good and said they did it. I could go on and on but what's the point. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.... read more
