I strongly advise anyone considering hiring Angelo Crespo to look elsewhere. My experience with him…read morewas unprofessional, stressful, and costly. I paid him $2,800, which I can prove with canceled checks, and the work was left incomplete. In addition, he caused damage to my home: my blinds were ruined, my driveway/pavers were stained from his van's oil leak, and my bedroom furniture was left covered in dust and drops of plaster. Despite giving him the opportunity to clean or repair the pavers, the stain remained. When I asked him to take responsibility, instead of addressing the issues, he became angry, defensive, and unprofessional in both his behavior and his written communications. He even tried to shift the blame onto me and claimed I should have purchased primer so he could check for his own mistakes -- an unreasonable and unprofessional expectation. Based on my experience, I would never recommend him to anyone. I am now left with damages to repair out of my own pocket because of his lack of accountability and poor workmanship.

I am extremely happy with the service I received from A.N.K.A. Home Improvements. Angelo did an…read moreamazing job from start to finish. He repaired the turret on our 90 year old Tudor house, and did so in a timely manner. He not only replaced the wood, but also sealed around the turret and painted the stucco. He always left the work site clean and tidy at the end of each day. He definitely is a master carpenter and I couldn't be happier with his work. I would not hesitate to recommend Angelo Crespo for your home improvement project.

I was shocked to see some bad reviews for AAA Quality Preparations. We had our house painted by…read moreanother painter twice over the years, and the paint jobs didn't last as long as they should. Eric from AAA was recommended to me by a friend for whom he had done a lot of painting. He painted our house, really excellent job, and it's been way more years now than our earlier painting lasted. After that I had him paint a rental house we own, and again terrific job, and no peeling anywhere, and it's been a number of years. His guys were very good, careful cleanup. Can't say good enough good things. Ken Potter, Valley Cottage, NY.

I don't know where to begin. What started out as what seemed like a great find deteriorated…read morequickly. We asked Eric of AAA to remove our siding, do some lead abatement, patch up and paint. In the time that they were here, he disappeared without notice twice for a week at a time. Leaving someone wondering around painting things at random just to stay busy. We have random paint on our storm windows, when the gutter people came it was discovered that Eric and crew had painted on rotten wood. It had to be replace and repainted. I even had to ask the gutter people to do touch up on places that AAA missed. We also received a bill for carpentry with no explanation, just a number. Now, in less than a year, a piece of the soffit has crashed to the ground and the paint is bubbling around the house. It's awful. As we explore what our options are, I thought I'd share some of our story. I'd think twice before contracting with Eric and AAA.

One of the benefits of being a Property Manager of 50+ units is in being able to recognize a vendor…read morethat is efficient and professional and that is what we discovered in this company when we recently updated a condo in Englewood, NJ. 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.

Finding a painter was our top priority, however once we started looking we quickly came to realize how overly priced and demanding many companies were. We were recommended Wall to Wall (Larry) from a friend. From the beginning Larry was extremely friendly and accommodating. We had our hardwood floors done along with some heavy construction before our move and Larry worked around everybody's projects and communicated with the floor team/construction. We even needed him to come back a week later to finish up our staircase and he was more than happy to come back right away! When we bought our home it seemed shaded and unwelcoming with dark colors. Now, it's a very welcoming home with bright colors and beautiful transition hue's you would never be able to tell our walls were previously painted terrible color schemes. Larry has exceeded our expectations and we can not recommend him enough! If you're looking for a friendly, funny and talented painter, Larry is your guy!
