    Painted my entire exterior home 3 years. But now, one side paint is peeling bad. Will need to repair and retouch.

    Stubbins did an excellent job painting the outside of my 1920 Craftsman house all new colors. Their workmanship was excellent, and their service was outstanding! They were always professional, polite and punctual. Great job, great service, great price! I highly recommend them.

    that is paint, not dust.

    I really didn't want to write this review as the owner is very nice and easy to work with. However I continue to find issues weeks later that cannot be overlooked. We had the entire interior repainted and we're not told until the first day of the job that we could not stay in the home and had to scramble to find a hotel (for 7 people), which was fine, we dealt with it. At first glance the paint job was fine. However after they left I found some terrible, messy spots that they clearly rushed and didn't prep or paint correctly. They came back to fix it, but I could not be there to babysit, and despite me sending pictures and marking the places that needed refinishing they did not fix it all. Now weeks later I am still finding messy spots. Also, they did not sheet anything to protect it. Our pantry door was painted and there is a film of paint over everything in there. I think if you can be in your home to micro manage the crew they are probably fine, but, if you are busy like me and wanting the job taken care of quickly and without incident I would look elsewhere.

    Communication with the team at Stubbins Painting was outstanding. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, they were attentive, responsive, and always ready to address any questions or concerns my wife and I had. The quality of the job was excellent, and the painting in all areas is clean and very good. One piece of advice for potential customers, is to make sure any changes to the original proposal is documented and clarified. We ran into some miscommunication with the final invoice, but the team at Stubbins was very attentive and took care to resolve any issues.

    DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY! Avoid this company to save yourself costly damage to your home! I had a horrible experience with this company. I paid a small fortune to have the entire interior and ceiling of my home painted. I also had the kitchen cabinets and cabinets in the house repainted as well. The crew was at my home for almost 2 weeks. When I came back, I was surprised to find overspray damage throughout my house, including my new appliances! This includes my new fridge, my new washer/dryer, and microwave, and my newly installed faucets. Also, my dining set and kitchen dining set were ruined due to overspray. They did not properly mask and protect my belongings! I communicated these issues to the owner Mike and there has been nothing done to address the damage to my home and furniture. Go with a different company, one that is more professional and respects/protects your belongings!

    I'm not changing my 5-star review of Parker Painting. I just want to add to my 5-star review to…read morereiterate to folks looking for honest workmanship and business dealings that you won't be disappointed by going with Parker Painting. My husband and I had a nightmare project of a house remodel. There were many low points and frustrations and some very very bad experiences with some contractors. So when we worked with contractors that actually did what they said they were going to do and then did the work with the utmost in workmanship and integrity, well, then I am just compelled to let the Yelp community know about them. So here is my second 5-star review of Parker Painting. I am so happy I hired Parker Painting. We were doing a remodel on an old house we inherited, and one of the bright notes of this giant and difficult project was Parker Painting. The price quoted was the lowest bid from all the other painting companies we contacted. Often times I'm afraid to take the lowest bid because I'm afraid of shoddy workmanship, but because they had such high ratings on both Yelp and Google, I gambled and we hit the jackpot. The paint job entailed: 1) exterior painting of stucco walls, all the trim on the outside, the metal garage door, the side door into the garage, and the patio wood patio cover, and 2) interior painting of all walls, ceilings and interior doors including the front door. The exterior work was done several months before the interior simply because the interior was waiting for other projects to finish first. Parker Painting worked with our schedule which helped take the pressure off us. So the exterior work went smoothly. Then it was time to paint the inside. Don't worry; it's all good. Because we had extensive repair work to the interior walls and because we had popcorn ceiling removed, there was a lot of raw wall board with new texture applied, which meant that this new texture absorbed primer and paint like crazy. Plus, there were several areas with water damage which required extra strength primer to cover up the water stains and keep them from leaking through the paint. Jason, the owner and the person who gave us the quote, admitted to me that he underestimated the amount of primer, paint and labor that the interior required, and applying these extra coats of primer and paint added to his labor cost. He told me that he was just breaking even on the interior painting in regards to labor, but all he asked from us was if we would pay (we did) for the extra amount of paint, primer and extra strength primer that was required to do the job correctly. He did not ask us for more for the extra cost of labor. I call that integrity in business. Throughout all this, the work effort and quality of work remained top quality. The work crew were meticulous in taping off parts that were not to be painted. The quality of work was/is top notch. As a matter of fact, our electrical contractor asked me who we hired to paint the house and then took a business card I had on me for his own reference. His comment about the quality of the paint job was that he's seen A LOT of paint jobs and this was one of the finest he has seen. He told me he's seen a lot of slop work and that this job was top quality and well done. Parker Painting also painted the interior of my brother's home. He and his wife were both pleased with the bid price and with the quality of work. The work crew are friendly, approachable, cleaned up the work site before they left each day, and showed the utmost in workmanship. Parker Painting is in my permanent contact list of contractors to hire and I would absolutely recommend them to friends, family, and the Yelp community. If you want a great price, quality work, and honest people, then Parker Painting is the painting company you need to hire.

    The guys at Parker Painting did an amazing job!! Very professional and very fair pricing. Jason…read morecame over and gave us a free in person estimate. They were on time and easy to communicate with. The work was quality and I felt they went above and beyond in what we asked for. Very knowledgeable guys in their field. We are doing some of our own home painting job and they didn't mind giving us advice and explained to us how texturing and stuff works! We would definitely consider them again, especially for the more difficult projects!

There's nothing wrong with the paint crew itself: they are hard working and professional. Unfortunately, they are not properly informed by the owner who conveniently forgets to tell them to paint areas included in the estimates, even after collecting the money for the job. The problem is with the owner Frank who, either because of old age or because of too much partying, is neglectful, forgetful and scatter-brained, to the point where four times, I had to bring back the crew because Frank (and no one else) forgot to tell them to do a segment that was included in the contract. And so, I recorded our conversation and took pictures and films of the areas to do last summer only to...come back and find that Frank forgot once again to tell the crew to do a whole side of the house that was left unpainted. Frank called it "miscommunication" even after I showed evidence it was included in our agreement, and said "we'll do it for sure "next time". Problem is, I already paid for a job that was incomplete and, because of Frank's lack of professionalism and consistency, I decided there won't be a "next time", because I'm sure he'll forget again this time and blame it on too much wine or not enough sleep. And what's worse is the insistence to do what was supposed to be done another time when I decide to do another segment, and he'll "throw this last one in too". I now completely veer away from this company, will never use again, and totally advise against using by ANYONE as too many mistakes, too many recalls and too many times did he simply "forget" to tell his crew to do one or other side, or other segment, one or other fascia, one corner etc... I'd rather avoid the headache and the argument and go somewhere else, even though he still owes me for a corner that was included in the previous estimate and bill, that was paid for, but was never completed. I would definitely not recommend this company, end of story. Frank does however, get an A+ at being a BS artist and salesman, not so at being consistent and professional.
