He offered a fair and very reasonable price for the entire job. Ray and David were prompt at the time they said they'd arrive. Ray pointed out yellowing in one of the bathroom ceilings and since I had the ceiling paint in the condo already, he offered to add this to the job without extra charge. David brought one other team member with him and they were exceptional. Very professional, super friendly, and clearly took significant pride in their work. David checked in with us periodically to make sure that everything was exactly to our specifications. He was even done an hour early! Ray came back at the end to make sure everything was good to go. I am so grateful for Ray and his team because now I can keep prepping for baby's arrival and not worry about these half finished bathrooms.

I have moved my home six times in my life, followed by hiring painters for extensive decorating. involving preparation of wall surfaces. My recent choice for painting my current home was My Colonial Painting Inc. To say the least, I was more than pleased with the results of their work. Their careful preparation was thorough and complete, followed by carefully preparing of mats and coverings to protect clean surfaces of furniture and floors. Their sensitive care in matching all new painting colors was beyond my expectations, as well as their attention to the daily and final clean up. Most important the painters where completely focused on satisfying the consumer. Always taking the time to check their work as the proceeded to the end of the task. The courtesy question, "So how is it looking now?" was a frequent happening as they worked though the day. So the next time you are faced with painting, remodeling or repair of your home; I would strongly recommend My Colonial Painting.

He blamed the wallcovering material as defective and has since indicated he filed a claim with the wallcovering manufacturer for material replacement.
