Today I dropped my car keyfob on the street and it stopped working. I thought I'd be spending the day waiting for AAA, but I went to Hastings Paint and Hardware and asked if they could help, and the man at the front desk took it apart, put it back together correctly, and didn't charge me a cent. I'm very thankful. Most of the negative reviews here on Yelp refer to the previous ownership. The people who work there now are terrific.

Cruz, was incredibly helpful in helping me figure out how to touch up my railing with the small amount of paint I had left in the bottom of the can, which was buried under a crust that had formed over the past decades. Accordingly, I was able to complete my touch up without having to buy a quart of new paint, and to finish the job with a minimal amount of work and without having to repaint the entire railing. Thanks so much!!

Do you ever wonder the frequent occasions in one's lifetime we would face the challenge of choosing…read morea paint color? As a homeowner, I have been mystified by the quest to find the perfect paint color. It seems there are just too many paints color options. The reason I believe it has become so much more difficult is because there are too many shades of colors. Such as the color white, one would be surprised the number of shades of white one can explore. Once you have decided to refresh your homes appearance with new colors, the next challenge is all the various retail stores to choose from and the choice of manufacture. Our retail paint store choice has always been Aboff's Paints, and our paint manufacturer Benjamin Moore. The service that we have received from Aboff's has always been outstanding. Our problem has always been choice of paint color, not paint manufacturer. Unfortunately, Benjamin Moore, has over 3,500 colors to choose from, which is incredible. Aboff's has been complimentary in most cases on our final choices, which does help a little bit.

They are racist, sexist, rude, and incompetent…read more I needed white paint for a bedroom, and they sold me an eggshell finish. When my painter saw the two gallons of paint, he immediately asked why the finish was in eggshell and that the walls would be super shiny. This is more for a bathroom. I called Aboff's and told them about the situation and asked if there was any way they could take it back as the paints totaled $98.00. Instead of apologizing about the inconvenience, the worker started raising his voice and said eggshell is his most popular finish and that's what he would use on his walls and that if I wanted a flat finish I should have said so. But I do not work at a paint store and do not have knowledge on this stuff, and that is why I specifically told them that it was for a bedroom and asked them what to get. Even if the finish is a personal choice, the way they spoke to me and handled the issue was horrible. Never going back.

From the first contact via Yelp, Jorge Ontiveros, owner of Century Painting LLC, provided exceptional customer service, especially in his communication with his client with regards to the project. He promptly responded to all inquiries before, during and even after the work was completed. What was impressive was he seem to intuitively understand our needs as his client and was quick to resolve any concerns we may have had. We had contacted over seven companies for the project before entrusting our condo project with Jorge and the results were fantastic! During the project, Jorge would sent updates with photos and description of what had transpired during the work, without being asked. If you appreciate such attention to detail in communication, you would absolutely appreciate this as much as we did. Jorge and his team members each seem to have their area of expertise in getting the paint work completed. Initially the project was slated to be completed in 3-4 days; however, with his team of Carlos, Mario, Sebastian and Hugo, they were able to complete the work beautifully in 2.5 days. We also appreciate their conscientious safeguarding efforts during COVID-19. Thank you for your fantastic work, Jorge! We are glad to be your first review but we are certain you will have many more to come! :) -----------------------------­--------------------­­­­-------- LOCATION: The company services Teaneck, NJ to within 25 miles of the vicinity, including New York City region. SERVICE: Exceptional communication (phone/text/photos), willing to spend time to answer questions and to requests. Pre-prep work was done well, they covered the floors and lighting well, removed all the plug plates and appliances to full painting coverage. The painters are very skilled and thorough, covered every visible (and even hard-to-see) cracks, bumps and holes for a smooth finish. Very organized and clean-up was very well done, PROS: Jorge and his team seem to take great pride in their work, and the results reflect in the remarkable results. They are legitimately registered with State of New Jersey and fully insured. Jorge will even provide you their full insurance information when you request it. CONS: They may need to use your fridge to store their lunch. :D PRICE: Price is competitive and on-par with other rates. However, their service outshines others by far, as they were chosen after couple of other vendors showed poor or questionable communication and/or paperwork. -----------------------------­--------------------­­­­---------

I was on the market for painters to help paint my entire apartment (2br 2ba including doors, trim…read moreand baseboards). After doing some research, I knew I wanted to use BJ Moore Regal Select paint which was consistently ranked as the best quality interior paint and we had our colors & finishes already selected. I reached out to 5 different painters to learn about their services, get estimates and I scheduled in-person walkthroughs for my top 2 choices. The walkthrough meeting and followup Q&A really sold me on Century Painting, we hired them and were not disappointed. Jorge (the owner) was responsive, very professional, timely and offered helpful advice about care / maintenance. I requested an initial estimate and covered the majority of questions thru Yelp, shared photos and a floor plan over text, and covered followup questions with Jorge over text and a brief walkthrough meeting I requested so I could get better acquainted with them and be completely transparent about the project scope for our specific space so there wouldn't be any surprises down the road (we have high ceilings and structural beams that might be tricky). Jorge was quick to meet and he provided a firm estimate in writing to me over email. Jorge provided a very competitive quote for the job and he required no advance deposit (most required 10-50% down). He also accepted credit card payment as an option, with full payment expected only when they completed the project (note: they were the only painter of the 5 that accepted credit cards). Jorge and Carlos showed up on time every morning, was able to provide a COI to meet my bldg's requirements, and they came ready to work with all the necessary paint and supplies. They took good care to move / cover our furniture and hardwood floors so they were protected and made sure to return everything clean and put back in place. Jorge encouraged us to identify any holes we may need patched or painting misses that needed correction - tbh, most of these things were proactively detected by them first. They really paid meticulous attention to ensure the quality of their work - and invited us to call them if we had any issues after the project (since we have furniture being delivered following the project). We fortunately had a little paint leftover so we're keeping it just in case we scuff any of the new paint in the process. They were done with the project in 2 days (others quoted me for 3-5 days with 2-4 painters). They were truly a pleasure to work with. We chose 2 dark colors and 1 light color - everything got at least 2 coats of paint but the dark colors required at least 4 coats. It came out beautifully (see pictures). I can't thank Jorge and Carlos enough. Highly recommend you check them out for yourself - I doubt you'll be disappointed.
