Strokes of Genius Painting

I hired a painter on the recommendation of another contractor. After 6 days and a few mishaps (falling off the ladder and spilling paint all over my uncovered possessions for one) I realized that contrary to the first eta of 'about 2 weeks' the painter was settling in for the long haul alla Murphy Brown. I did a quick calculation of how many walls were partially finished vs how many were still to go, and realized a month was probably being a conservative eta for completion.

After a search on Homestars I called Daniel at Strokes of Genius. He came right over, looked at the job, put a quote on the table with an all-in number and a guaranteed end date and I signed on it right on the spot. Dan cleared a place in their schedule for the next week. He even sent Sabrina, a colour consultant over to help me make my final choices. She was really great help. She sent all the info to SOG and they showed up on time, on the day, with their materials, ready to go to work. Steve and the guys worked like the pro's they are and finished the job one day before schedule.

My husband and I are artists with a combined 60+ years experience in our business. We both have sharply trained eyes for judging a bad line or teeny inconsistency in colour. I can only say Steve has one of the steadiest hands I have seen for cutting a colour and all the crew worked to the highest standards.

I am not someone who tollerates people in my house while I am working either but I was impressed at how professional and personable the crew was - I was shocked to find I didn't mind them being there at all. Steve was in charge and lovely to deal with - he patiently listened to all my comments, answered questions and kept me well informed. Dan was in the background making sure everything went well and on time - even after a couple of colour changes they still came in a day early! I knew I could call him with any little detail and he would address it seriously.

I would recommend this company for any job big or small. They know their stuff and they get it done on time. A rare experience these days! So refreshing! I will always call on SOG when I need a paint job done!
