I hired Wilber's to paint the exterior of my house. Christian, the estimator, matched the price of the lowest of the other three painting estimates that I got. He also met my need to get the work done as soon as possible. In fact, after telling me that there was a two-month waiting list, once I approved the estimate, they showed up to begin the job just two days later. Not sure how that happened, but I'm not complaining. Steven, the job foreman, was very professional and highly skilled, notwithstanding his youth. Why do people I meet keep getting younger? He is a perfectionist, a virtue which you rarely encounter with home contractors. He even helped guide me with the color selection. I threw him a few curve balls during the job, and he did everything I asked him to do with a smile. He and his crew were on time every day, and were all polite, neat, and hard-working. They are acrobats on high ladders, and barely dripped a drop of paint where it didn't belong. The finished job looks great, and exceeded my expectations. It is also worth mentioning that Wilber's guarantees the durability of the paint job for three years. All the others who bid offered a two year guarantee. I can't speak to their other services, but I would hire Wilber's again for a major painting project, and recommend them. read more

the most incompetent people. the work is low level and unskilled craftsmanship. damaged my kitchen tile floor, wallpaper, hardwood floors, countertop, and sloppy work ive encountered. the best was their employee wanting to recruit me as their own client and get my entire development as clients so he may start his own company. unprofessional contractor comes in with all their issues and dysfunction into my home. the manager was a mess estimate was out of order. the entire company a mess and out of order. their prices are absurd for the work they produce not in alignment. beware if youre looking for quality work. look elsewhere!!!! read more

Wilber's Home Improvement finished painting the exterior of our home last week...nine colors! 21 windows behind the storms, and many more! What an incredibly beautiful job! They are truly talented, light hearted, accommodating, honest, and reliable. You can see the quality of their workmanship in the attached photo. Erick, Jose, and crew were super nice people to have at our home for two weeks. Thank you so much for the beautiful work. Best wishes! Joe, Laura and Arden read more

I've been a customer of Wilber's for several years. Up till now I've always found them to be reasonable in price, professional, reliable and trustworthy. I don't know what's happened but, they are no longer the company they used to be. I recently hired Wilbers to repair a loose newel post at the bottom of my stairs. When Danny the estimator came he explained that it might be an easy fix or more involved if they needed to install a new 4X4 interior post. Though I requested that he provide estimates for both scenarios he only sent the estimate for the worst case scenario. I let that go because I trusted that they would do the right thing should it prove to be an easy fix. When they arrived it turned out that all that was needed was to replace the wooden board in the basement with a 2 ft. 2x4 and tighten the bolt that runs inside the post. The workers were here for 1 hour and for this Wilber's decided that a fair price was $820. It seemed absolutely outrageous to me that they would charge me $820 to tighten a bolt so I tried reaching out to Wilber 3 times and asked that he call me back to discuss. Well he never called me back. I can only assume that he knows full well that he did is wrong and is unable to justify his outrageous pricing. It's sad that Wilber thinks this is how you should treat a loyal customer and it's certainly disappointing to discover what an unprofessional and unethical person he is. I certainly will never utilize the services of Wilbers ever again and I would caution anyone thinking of hiring them to think twice. Wilber is a man that lacks integrity and therefore someone you cannot trust to do business with. read more

Awful company! Came around my house and wasted my time for about 2 hours measuring and calculating...said they would give me an estimate to paint the outside of my home. Never heard from them again. They are like a lot of contractors nowadays, they cherry pick their jobs. Which ever job is the easiest and they can make the most profit from is the one they'll choose. Fair enough, I get it, but call and say so. Don't duck peoples calls and have them waiting around for your estimate when you've already decided you're not going to do the job. Go elsewhere folks, read some of the reviews on this outfit and you should run screaming! read more

I hired Wilbur's Painting to paint a bedroom in my house. I have been a repeat customer. They didn't put the washing machine hose back into the slop sink, and as a result the laundry room flooded. I spent several hours moping it up with an injured leg. It was a Sunday. The next day, I called them to report this and was totally ignored. I asked for a partial reimbursement. This was several weeks ago, and they are still ignoring me. I owned a business in Montclair for 36 years and I find their attitude to be very disrespectful. I will never again refer my friends, family and clients to them. Mary C. 2/13/24 read more

I think there's been a mixup on this site between a contractor named Wilber in New York, and Wilber's in Essex County, New Jersey. This review is for Wilber's in New Jersey. Israel gave me an estimate and didn't go over, and warned me where there might be problems. His crew was very hardworking and professional and did a great job, and there were no unpleasant surprises. read more

Amazing work! They just finished painting our two floor condo. They didn't leave until everything was perfect. Very happy with the results. Will be calling them again if we need anything else done in the future. Definitely recommend! read more

Wilber's is used extensively around town, but it was clear in our experience they are taking on more projects than they can responsibly take on. Our foreman dropped off two workers in the morning and never returned until the next day. He never walked around the property to inspect the work. When I asked why he showed me photos of a "big job" in Short Hills. I guess he was there all day? It was left to my wife and I to be the ones inspecting the work and advocating for ourselves. In the end, so many corners were constantly being cut that it became overwhelming having to oversee. Workers used our yard as a bathroom (never asking to use our bathroom despite us offering it multiple times), never completed the second coat which was contracted, did not clean up, did not cover windows or other areas of house properly, and damaged several areas of our property. Honestly, I feel bad for the workers as the higher ups are clearly the problem having them do jobs as quickly as possible to move onto the next. Will never use again and lost business from other homes on our street that saw first hand the lack of accountability. read more

I see that most of the reviews here are not for the actually painting! Anyway, that is what my review is about! We contacted Wilber's for a quote to paint some replacement shingles on our house and paint where we had replaced windows. It was easy to schedule a time for the estimate. They do like you to be there to walk through the project even if it's on the exterior, which can be hard for NYC commuters. It's worth it though. Victor came on time and we walked through what he would do and added a few smaller projects like our doorway molding and rails. He sent the proposal promptly which I value. I always have to follow up with contractors and it's sometimes hard to get a call back or reach a live person. Wilbers is a larger company and you can reach them with ease. The crew did a great job paint matching and the painting of the new shingles are seamless to the old paint on the house. The scraped and sanded our window frames and they look perfect too. I was unhappy with the filling of the holes around our doorway. No questions asked, and Victor came back to take a look. He agreed and his crew came back to fix it. And it looks great now. Pictures below! I definitely recommend and will not hesitate to use Wilber's again! read more

Sharing an update on the situation described above. Wilber, the owner, demonstrated a customer-first approach and offered solutions to ensure I would be happy with the result. The work is now complete and I will say it looks much better than it did initially. It was a journey to get here though, and what I expected to be a relatively quick project (one that I would have expected to take less than a week once scheduled) extended almost three months from my initial inquiry to when the work was completed in an acceptable manner. Along the way, I had to follow-up several times to understand progress and clarify what would needed from me to proceed. As a busy executive and parent (one who is not typically available to rearrange my schedule for repeated contractor meetings or to take phone calls throughout the business day while I'm in work meetings), this minor project took more of my time than I had ever envisioned and for that I can't say the experience was seamless. I'm just pleased it is complete and that I can move on with other priorities. read more

This was the first time I used Wilber's Painting & all I have to say is what a great experience it was. From the first meeting with the project manager Erick to all the workers were friendly, courteous & practiced social distancing. They got the job done & in the time frame they allocated. I highly recommend Wilber's Painting. I will be using them again for any interior or exterior paint job I have. read more

We were contacted by Wilbur's Painting to resolve our concerns. Arrangements were made to return and everything was corrected in a timely and professional manner. We were also reimbursed for the broken television. The kitchen floor looks amazing and we are pleased with the results. If these were the original results, my rating would have been five stars. read more

I had Wilbur's Painting company paint my second floor hallway, wooden rail and area leading upstairs. The gentlemen did an excellent job!! They were thorough, neat and they even vacuumed the floor and stairs when they completed the job! I wish I knew of this company in the spring when I had my house exterior painted. I have no doubt they would have done a better job. Thank you so much for a wonderful job. I will definately be calling Wilbur's painting for my next project. I've attached a couple of photos, before and after. read more

They did a good job on my trim around the house...but the painting on my windows was not neat, looked sloppy and looked very unprofessional after it was done. I was truly disappointed and am looking for another company to address my windows. read more

Highly recommend Wilbers. Erick and Oscar did a fantastic job start to finish. What drove my decision with them was the recommendations that Erick gave while I was getting a quote and estimate. Very responsive and communicative. Oscar and his team did a great job but what stood apart was that every morning they would cover what they will be doing and always check back in before they left for the day. Really helped us, my wife was very happy with that and we both felt that everyone should do that as it makes a big difference. read more

Very impressed with their work, their honesty, and they HONOR THEIR WARRANTIES. Our house was painted by Wilber's a little over 4 years ago. Recently, we noted some areas of peeling in several places. We asked CHRIS to come and take a look. After inspecting the problem areas, he said that even though the 4 year warranty had just passed, he could see that the problem started months earlier. Two weeks later, a Wilber's crew showed up, not only did they patch repair, but gave the whole house a new cover coat! WE REALLY APPRECIATE HOW CHRIS AND HIS CREW STOOD BEHIND THEIR WORK! Wilber's will continue to be our go-to painter in the future. read more

I just had my house painted by Wilber's. From rep Eddie to Project Manager Dennis and team, they all did a great job! They had great suggestions for changes, took care as best as possible with plants around the house, cleaned up each day and showed up when they said they would. Like any house project, you need to be around and give it your daily critical eye, but these guys met my picky standards and did a super job. Very happy and would recommend them whole heartedly. read more

Wilber's team has done an amazing job at my house. My house and garage look stunning after all their hard work. I can't wait for the interior of my house to get painted too! Our estimator, Nadia, was there every step of the way to guide us and respond to any of our concerns. The painting foreman and crew were very pleasant to work with also. They paid attention to detail and arrived always in time. I have to say, this has been the best experience I've had with contractors in my life and would recommend Wilber Home Improvements to all my friends and neighbors. read more

Wilber's repaired the custom mouldings and repainted our back foyer and powder room after we had a small flood. They were responsive, and Reiman did excellent prep work and painting. We are really happy with the quality of the work. When its time to repaint our living room and kitchen we'll certainly call Wilber's, and request Reiman. Great job! read more

We hired Wilbers to do exterior repairs, interior painting and carpentry. We only had a month to make the necessary repairs before we had to move in. They did an amazing job painting the interior and especially repainting our kitchen and beautifully installed new kitchen floor tiles. They were also helpful in troubleshooting last minute surprises. The work was completed on time and our home was cleared of construction debris before move in. We will be hiring them again this spring to make more exterior repairs. read more

We used Wilber's to replace our roof, complete some exterior carpentry repairs, repaint our circa 1918 house, and then replace the gutters. The company was very easy to work with. I was really impressed with the communication between their office staff and their contractors to coordinate the 4 projects and manage the timing of each step so that everything got done with the minimum of disruption. All of the teams were punctual and put in long days. They also accommodated a number of late stage color changes without complaint. read more

Great job staining the exotic hardwood siding on our house! Wilbur's was great to work with, professional, and friendly! 10/10 would recommend. read more

We had the interior of our house painted and the crew was always on time, very friendly and got the job done quicker than expected. They walked us through all the updates and asked when any relevant questions popped up that they wanted our input on. Really pleased with the work and would highly recommend them. read more

We used Wilber's to paint the exterior of our house, and Victor and his son did a great job. Eduardo, our estimator, was also readily available and answered and/or addressed our all concerns. Since completed, we've received many compliments on how our house looks, and that's a testament to the quality of their work, IMO. Finally, we're using them to paint the interior in the very near future, as well renovate our kitchen cabinets. read more

They were on time and patient with me while I decided on a color and they had the best price. Started on time and completed on time. I then hired their team to lay laminate floors in my business and they did it over the holiday so it would cause interpruption at no extra change and again very professional and reasonable price. I was relaxed and trusted them completely. FYI I'm not an easy customer at all under normal circumstance. They are now about to lay floors in my house and finish my basement. The painted my house perfectly. read more

Wilber's painted the exterior of our house including trim, detached garage, bilco doors, etc. From the initial estimate to the final walk-through, everyone we dealt with was prompt, courteous, pleasant, neat, and conscientious. We need some wood and gutters replaced and the subcontractors they used were fantastic. Our project manager Erick made the whole process seamless. He was available whenever we needed anything, and took care of all of our concerns promptly and with a "no problem" attitude. Highly recommend Wilber's! read more

Wilber's is excellent and went above and beyond what we contracted the company to do. Got three quotes from different vendors and Wilber's had the most competitive pricing. The job manager, Eric, was excellent at communicating about the work and steps needed to complete the job. Wilber's even helped to order the doors that they needed to install from a local vendor they recommended. You could not ask for more in terms of craftsmanship, communication, and consideration. For example, the workers even returned after the job to clean up an inconsiderate bird that treated my newly painted white house like a personal toilet. I would recommend the company to anyone in NJ looking to do work on their home. read more

We partnered with Wilber's for external painting and repair. This included replacing wood with composite where necessary and removal of wood shutters and replacement with polypropylene ones. What distinguished this company from others was the following: Danny S. was the estimator and initially met with my husband. Just prior to the start of the project, Danny returned with the foreman Olger A. He went through the project again with us and talked to Olger about job specifics. Olger is an amazing foreman, on time, efficient, skilled, detailed and an excellent project manager. Danny returned mid project to discuss the work with us and review a repair with Olger. They also did extra work for us not covered with the additional estimate which was handled very efficiently. Additionally, they did some picky repairs, such as reattaching a leader to the house, which was appreciated. The result was a beautiful house with great curb appeal - the result of good teamwork. We highly recommend them. read more

Just completed work with them. Pleasant, timely, clean and courteous. Part of the work was outdoors and we both were plagued with rain. Unlike other painters, they would not proceed until they were confident the previous coats had dried sufficiently. Every step along the way, the office staff was in touch. That's a service that I greatly appreciated. The price was very fair (the outdoor job was difficult) having to contend with terribly peeling Rustoleum "Deck Renew". Some additional work was added once they started. I got a call yesterday to say I had OVERPAID by $140.00 and they were mailing me a refund check. REALLY, WHO DOES THAT!? I'm a pretty precise painter myself, but this job was too much for me to tackle. The work was very well done and I would not hesitate to recommend them. read more

If you live in NJ and are looking to have your house painted, look no further! My brother and I contracted with Wilber's to paint a five bedroom home, first the exterior, then the interior. Our contractor for both jobs was Erick Granados. We were so satisfied with and grateful for our experience that we wanted to share the news with the community. Erick went out of his way to accommodate our busy schedule and deliver top quality and expedited jobs. We put the house on the market and it sold after one open house. Thank you Erick and Wilber's! read more

Use d these guys to paint a large older home in Montclair NJ. Price was the best and the crew was the best i've used in 25 years in essex county Found a few little spots that needed touch up 1 month and then 2 months after they finished and they were over here within a couple of days Highly recommended read more

I've used several painters and Wilber's was far and above the best. They were held to very high standards by their bosses. They came when they said they would and cleaned up after themselves. Their finished product was the best that I've seen anywhere. I've recommended them to friends who are also very pleased with their quality. read more

I am not pleased with the response time. The consultant I worked with canceled the appointment and then did not send a revision of the proposal after I spoke with her to revise the scope of work. I sent an email asking for the proposal after one week I still have not gotten the proposal or a call. Very unprofessional. read more

I just used Wilber's for carpentry and a full exterior paint job on my home. They did an outstanding job. The crew was professional, courteous, on time and detail-oriented. They worked tirelessly during some extremely hot days to make sure the job was completed in a timely fashion. I have a 150 year-old Victorian which was looking worn and shabby from a decade of exposure to the elements. They made the entire house shine to the point where it looks like I have a brand new home. And the amount of work the carpentry team completed in two short days was nothing short of super-human. I highly recommend Wilber's to anyway looking for a quality paint job. read more
