Interior house painting

This is the third time we have used About Painting. This time we repainted almost every room in the house including a basement bathroom and freezer room. The job also involved removing two 18 year old wall paper borders and painting the interior of every closet in the house as well as the pantry. We also used their complimentary colour consultant who was very helpful in refining our paint choices.
The foreman Blair and various crew were on time every morning and the job was complete in only 3 1/2 days. All were very professional and we are very pleased with the quality of the work. Payment is not due until an inspection is done and any touch ups required are complete. Highly recommended.

Interior and exterior

I (we) have used About Painting for all our painting needs since 2003. We were initially impressed with the prompt service relating to our very first quote. We found their prices to be favourable (we did check with other services). Their efficiency, attitude and their friendliness is second to none.
I am not being paid for this endorsement. I highly recommend this company for any and all your painting needs.

Paint complete 2-Bedroom Condo in preparation for sale

I hired About Painting to paint a 2-Bedroom, 1.5 Bath estate condominium that required significant repair to the drywall in several rooms, in addition to repair/repaint to two kitchen cupboards that had been damaged. I feel About Painting went above and beyond to ensure the walls were in good condition before painting took place - the final product is excellent, with no evidence of prior damage. The painters were quiet, diligent, and left no mess behind. The work was completed ahead of schedule. The follow-up meeting was great and Bill even repaired a small scrape to one wall that was left by another contracting company, for no additional charge. Chris was responsive and accessible to answer my questions. I couldn't be happier with the service I received and the professionalism and customer service provided throughout this project. I would highly recommend About Painting to anyone in search of painting services.

interior and exterior painting

About Painting has painted our houses for over 10 years. Each job was immaculately done, reasonably priced and the service is top grade. Our latest house has high ceilings and some irregular walls - no problem for About Painting. They go above and beyond expectations. We've recommended them to a number of friends who have all been very satisfied.

Interior Painting

I was very pleased with About Painting. They were able to come out and give me a quote quickly. They quoted me a best case scenario and worst case; I had two really dark walls that might have needed 3 coats. So I knew exactly what to expect. The painters were on time, professional, and did an exceptional job. I plan on using them again for future projects.

Exterior house and garage painting

Gregg was very knowledgeable and honest and gave a very competitive quote (over 20% less than a competitor that was also very highly rated on HomeStars). James and his crew were very professional and did a great job that exceeded our expectations. We also appreciated the post-job inspection which allowed us to address any problems before we paid.

Hello Don,
I appreciate you taking the time to write a great review. Sometimes the less experienced painters and painting companies are a little worried about anything high and a little more difficult and raise there prices to compensate for it. We are not normally the cheapest,
we do good work and charge accordingly.
Again thank you for the great review.

Gyproc filling and interior painting.

This contractor was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The estimator was prompt, courteous and efficient. He prepared and delivered a quote onsite. Further, he answered all questions that we had regarding minor repairs, touch ups, etc.
Similarly, the 2-man crew arrived promptly at the scheduled time and displayed a courteous and respectful attitude. They completed the job to an excellent standard in much less time than we ever anticipated. There's no doubt that if a need arises for similar services in the future, About Painting would be first on our list. And Bill, the touch up man is a true painting magician.

Stucco Painting

Spray painted two coats on two external stucco walls damaged due to hail storm. Another great job, done expediently and at a competitive price. Have used them previously on both internal and external walls with same satisfactory results. Would definitely recommend their service.
