Alex and team did a fantastic job! Their attention to detail and preparation are second to none…read more We had the entire exterior of our home stained and painted by them. They took their time ensuring the surface was prepped properly, which ensured a great finish product. As we were looking to make a color change, Alex worked with us to find the right color and sample it on the house before moving forward. Alex is timely in his communication, managed expectations for the day and is often visiting the job to ensure it is on track. We highly recommend Alex and his team.

The crew was on time, well prepared, polite, did great work and finished per the deadline.

They're also very competitive on their quotes.

Just say no to this operation until Nathan figures out how to run his business. I had a horrid…read moreexperience with his company. By the looks of it, Living Social is giving him a lot of business and unfortunately he doesn't have the crew or organization skills to handle the volume of work. At first, it was extremely hard to even get a confirmed time to paint my place once Nathan came in and gave me an estimate. There was a lot of talk and promises to get back to me ASAP which never happened until I nagged over and over to please put something on the calendar. I don't think this business has a calendar. Appointments are handled via text and need constant babysitting/reminders to make sure that they actually happen. Don't get me wrong, Nathan is a nice person but is simply incapable of executing. He told me that he didn't have enough people to do the work and that he was hiring more contractors. I was annoyed but content thinking that it must mean his company does great work. Right? Wrong. When I finally had the appointment finalIzed, 2 guys showed up who clearly did not want to be there. They took breaks to smoke and relax and complained about the amount of work they have to do. Like what? Weren't you hired to do the work and aren't you getting paid for it? Mind you, it's not a 5 bedroom mansion we are talking about. I have a 1 bedroom apartment that is 810 sq ft. Ok, complain away as long as the quality of work was good, right? Wrong again. I am attaching the pics of their work for you to see, just so that you know I'm not just venting. I have hardwood floors and it was splattered with paint because they didn't have enough coverings to protect the floor. In fact they arrived with NO floor covers at all and had to leave to bring them. What painting pros get to the work site without basic necessities to do the job? The paint drops were alsoon my bathroom window, tiles and sinks. They also messed up my coat rack because instead of taking it off the wall, they decided to paint around it and of course painted directly on the mahogany wood of the rack. When I noticed what they did, they promptly removed the rack and tried to remove said paint and when all of it didn't come off, they gave me an advice on how to remove it myself. There were so many spots on walls that weren't painted through, I stopped counting and pointing them out. By 5pm one of the contractors faded entirely and just sat there talking about what he's going to do when he gets home and what type of food he's going to eat. So I paid them, saw them out and immersed myself in paint removal off the floor and other surfaces. I texted Nathan the next day and told him about my experience. I sent him the pics of the shoddy work. He appeared to be furious and straight out said "You're absolutely right. I just don't see how they did such crappy work... I'm going to give them a call to see what hell... That's just pure laziness and carelessness." I was being understanding and told him that he should probably reconsider hiring these guys again if he cares about the reputation of his business as much as he says he does. He promised to come out and fix everything as soon as possible. We scheduled for Friday afternoon and... I didn't hear from him. Two Friday's later, I sent him a text and told him that he obviously doesn't care about the company's reputation and that I don't even want to deal with this anymore. Needless to say, I do not recommend this business to anyone. Stay away.

He offers a full range of interior, faux painting, decorative painting as well as light remodeling and repair work. Company founder, John Michaels Decorating was established in 1989. Initially doing straight painting and wallpaper hanging, John quickly learned the finer points of the painting business through his association with the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America (PDCA.) As a graduate of Contractor College through the PDCA, and many years of membership, John learned the proper way to run a contracting business. JMD is known for professionalism, integrity, thoroughness, quality work and neatness.

Sean Smith is excellent, and after two huge jobs, and one small one, I was inspired to write this…read morereview. I commend Sean personally and those who work for him. Sean is an excellent and clear communicator, and has high standards and attention to detail. The work done on the interior of our house was top-notch, and most recently they made my old wooden front door and dull rusting black railings outside look better than new. Sean's men leave everything in pristine condition. I've had a not-so-good experience with a contractor years ago, so I know from experience that Sean and his team deliver really top-notch quality work. I found his pricing entirely reasonable, and we worry about our pets and were entirely confident that he and his crew followed our instructions about doors/windows/exits to the letter! Eliz T.

They did not tape anything, they did not put floor protection, they painted over the trim, they did not do 2 coats, and the best of all was Sean saying it was not the greatest outcome but he would not fix it or charge less. Result was that I had to hire someone else to redo the work properly. Kudos to Sean for his honesty, but really? I will never hire him again, and, of course, will never recommend him.
