I hired this company to paint the trim on a rental home that I own. Only the fronts of the trim were painted. When I emailed to ask for the underside of the trim to be painted they argued that this was french cutting and was too time consuming and difficult for them so it was not done. They did come back to the house and completed the french cutting after I challenged them. Some of the trim was painted the same colour as the house which was a communication error but the paint was slopped over onto the stucco and not just a bit it was 1 inches or greater. Due to these short cuts I do not trust that the trim was primed or puttied the windows appropriately only time will tell. They were asked not to complete part of the job and only reduced their rate by 50 dollars. When asked how they came to this number they stated that it would take 15 minutes for one worker to complete the work. So they assume that their going rate is $200/hr? These discussions are documented on email and there are photos corresponding to my concerns. I paid them in full was for legal reasons. I did send a review to the company when asked by them and almost 3 months later have not had any reply or follow up. I was left wishing that I had done the job myself and will have to touch up their work in spring.

They did a fantastic job in setting up, painting and cleaning up. They taped up all the appropriate spots (windows, doors, framed, base boards, cabinets, appliances, furniture, light fixtures, knobs etc. They were professional and well mannered.

They did our deck and fence work and stained the trim on my front porch. They had to do a lot of scraping to get things ready and they did an excellent job. I was very satisfied. The crew were college kids and very good.
