From meeting with Nick Bontempo for an estimate, to the final job completed, they were wonderful. The crew, especially Freddy who led the crew, were awesome. They were very professional, precise, courteous, and did a fantastic job prepping and priming the walls. If we had questions or concerns, they were happy to ensure we were satisfied. Clean up every day was very thorough We have scheduled them to re-stain our deck now and will use them in the future for jobs we need done. We feel like we bought a new house.

Pricey but worth it. The Mrs and I just moved into our Upper Marlboro townhome. Originally we were…read morethinking of repainting the entire home but when we realized how expensive that would be, we chose a more modest project. We add Hazel accent walls in both the family room and nursery and repainted our entire master bedroom Underseas (mainly the walls and inner wall of the tray ceiling). After collecting various quotes, chose Annapolis Painting because Severn, who conducted my estimate, demonstrated great knowledge and professionalism. Ended up paying $100 more than another painter, but I was able to let them in before work and come in that evening to a job well done. The only "complaint" I have is that they didn't leave the leftover paint. But I'm still happy with their work, would use them again, and simply ask them to leave the paint from the start.

My usual painter painted the front of the house and side of the garage but could not go on because of time constraints. It rained the week they were to start and they came a day later. I asked if it was dry enough and they said no problem. I had talked with Cabot Stain people and explained that the house had an oil stain on it and they would have to prime with something that would make paint adhere. The men that worked were very nice. One year later the paint was pealing off in sheets and continues to do so. Josh, the owner tried to blame it all on bad wood. Not so, it is ultra expensive cypress meant to last lifetime and any wood that had to be replaced was fixed before they began. The saleman they use advised me to blame it on the paint. The only place their work is not peeling is where my other painter had painted. That should tell you something. Bottom line the reason the paint job failed and continues to fail is poor preparation not using a separate primer and possible moisture from the rain when they rushed their schedule. Josh does not answer any e-mails and the salesman said "I thought you said you were selling the house in 3 years" That ought to tell you something.

It was clear on the first day that we had chosen the right people for the job. They did excellent work. Our ceilings, walls, trim, and doors look fantastic. They also patched a few larger holes in the walls/ceilings and you cannot tell where the holes were before. The price was very fair for the amount of work. They also cleaned up well each night. We would recommend Focus Painting to anyone looking for a painter, and would definitely use them again in the future.

We did this based on an excellent experience in our previous home in Annapolis, MD where they did a large basement renovation project for it. They helped us install a beverage refrigerator in a wet bar, put recessed lighting into multiple rooms, and installed ceiling fans. The work was extremely well done. We also had them do all the work while we were away and we came home to the work 100% finished and the project areas spotlessly clean. During the entire process our project manager communicated clearly via email and text messages about our project. Their communication and professionalism is unmatched. If you are looking for a contractor to assist with a renovation, remodel, or addition, I'd highly recommend you contact Bohan Contracting!

According to several subcontractors, Bohan was a good company initially, but they became greedy and took on too many projects. According to subcontractors in the area we have consulted with, superior Annapolis contractors refuse to work for them, in a few cases calling out their "designer" Jaime Esposito in particular. Bohan parked a huge dumpster in our driveway, insisted that we be out of our house in early January 2022, though the work on our house didn't start for MONTHS. Bohan's trucks from other parts of town would arrive nightly to dump their garbage. Bohan's workers told us they weren't allowed to dispose of refuse in the other neighborhoods in which they were working. That speaks to the consistent mistreatment of us and another family on our street who hired Bohan, judging our neighborhood to be not worth prioritizing. They are still not finished with either project! They've left us twisting in the wind -- but have had no problem collecting money from us. We were told we would be out of our house for 5 - 6 months and it turned out to be almost 16 months! The cost was almost TWICE their quote. Bohan's workers barely spoke English, were sloppy, didn't measure anything and were completely unskilled. On one visit to the site, they had to find a child who spoke English to even be able to communicate with us. Every subcontractor Bohan hired appeared to be the bottom of the barrel. Every day we find mistakes and poor workmanship. It was, and continues to be, the most depressing and disappointing experience we've ever had. They refused to compensate us for any of the aggravation they put our family through. We ended up sleeping in the workshop of our carpenter son, who was unable to work for the entire 15+ months we were forced to stay there. The architect/engineer DAMES Design, who we had great hopes for, left out items such as the water heater, found egregious errors in Bohan's work (including going over her head to hire a different engineer) but then told us WE had to pay her an extra $2000+ for dealing with it! Avoid DAMES Design! Advice before renovating your house -- HAVE A LAWYER on hand to read the contract first and to be ready for litigation.

Mr. Wynes did a wonderful job and was the best home construction contractor that we have had in almost 30 years as a home owner. Mr. Wynes provided several options for completing our project and gave the pros, cons, and costs for each option. The work was completed quickly and completely. Dadestar's attention to detail, clean up and final punch list was superlative. We had a hard deadline which Dadestar met including cleanup and lawn remediation. This was the best contracting experience we have had and we highly recommend Dadestar for your contracting needs. Mr. Wynes is welcome to should his work for us to any prospective client.

From the initial meeting to discuss our plans to the 3D rendering, the process was amazing. Matt and Kevin were so knowledgeable with Calvert County codes and regulations and offered a wonderful rendering to address the codes and safety! The price was fair and we plan on making them our go-to for our quoted project and many more projects! We love that they gave us a fair price upfront and didn't bargain with us once we said we could not do the project at that time. We asked several friends who each have successful landscape companies in different states and they confirmed the quote we received from Lawn Artist was very fair. We gave Kevin and Matt several inspiration pictures and the rendering we received more than met our expectations so much so that we are putting off saving for a needed kitchen renovation to save for this project instead. Kevin was very understanding and did not make us feel bad for not having the budget to do the project right away and even gave us a great option to do the project in stages fit into our budget! We can't wait to start! By far the best company we received a quote from out of the 5 we contacted!
