Colors In Motion

Glen, the owner/operator came recommended from neighbors who have utilized his services in the past and we decided to give him an opportunity and we coordinated a date/time for an estimate. He was at our home very quickly and he was the last of 4 painters we asked for estimates from. We usually take three but we are very happy we had Glen recommended to us. In addition, it was very nice and quite settling to be able to see the quality of work he performs prior to his arrival to our home. Glen of Colors In Motion has painted 5 home exteriors in my immediate neighborhood, as well as several interiors and one home he painted the whole exterior and his work is so great, they hired him to paint the whole interior so again, great to see that level of quality before a man/company you have never dealt with even arrives knowing I will have my home painted just as nice and clean AND in all honesty, seeing his work kind of sealed the deal before he even arrived simply because I knew I was going to have a very clean, tight lined, very high quality painted home and why would I chance getting inferior work...it's our house...everyone will see it. Glen arrived, exactly when he said he was going to arrive. First thing to me is that he is punctual and he is responsive. Great Start. The compared to all other painter's we entertained, everyone else took about 5 to 10 minutes tops. Glen actually talked to me, asked me what I wanted, wanted all the details of what my expectations were, etc and from area to area he jotted down some notes..he was actually going to give me what I wanted and the way I wanted it and using his years of experience and expertise provided some recommendations I hadn't considered. He wasn't just going to slop or spray some color on the house, I got that immediately, he was a very high quality painter and don't forget I saw his work, so I was happy that I was going to be getting the same outstanding treatment. He talked and spoke with me, explained the importance of sanding some areas, cleaning other areas that needed it, how the paint works, what sheen does what, etc the projected timeline and being very detail oriented I explained I want the eaves caulked completely, every nook, cranny, crack and crevice so first I keep bugs and water out and two once painted, it was solid and would look great and I realized it was going to be a little extra due to the extra labor but again I knew what It was going to like when it was done and the painting isn't going to be needed again for a very long time. So the estimate let me know Glen had been doing this a while, knew what he was talking about, I knew for a fact he had done quality work at least 5 times in my neighborhood, and he asked for a little time and he said he would present me with a written estimate that day...sounded great to me! I did get the estimate, I had the materials already, and I decided we would hire Glen of Colors in Motion, there was no need to ponder, it wasn't a tough decision, and we made it. We shook on it and he relayed I would get the proposal of work and contract teh next day...and as you'd expect, it arrived via email...as promised...right on time. I signed and scanned it and emailed it back after reviewing it and we had hired Glen and Colors In Motion. He explained he'd be there in a few days during the estimate process once we agreed and a few days later he arrived with 2 members of his company. They started at 0830 on a Thursday as promised, they were punctual and at the end of the day, caulking had been accomplished and some priming was accomplished. At the end of the day, the area around the house was cleaned and straightened up and Glen asked if he could start a littel earlier, 0730, the next day, to beat some of the heat, of course we agreed. He arrived exactly on time and they went straight to work on Friday morning. Friday afternoon was approaching and by early afternoon they were about done, a little trim work and clean up remained. Glen and his two team members worked very well together....they have definitely worked together in the past and everyone knew their job. It was completed, it looked awesome, they did an awesome job, I was very pleased with the look of our home. They cleaned everything up, all the sidewalks around the house, the patio in the rear, the driveway and even the garage...everything. Before Glen left he ensured I was happy and let me know if I see anything to let him know. Of course I looked and I said no, it looks great but he reiterated if I needed anything I could cal him. Of course after he left I looked at all the eaves and fascia, checked the caulking again, looked at the house, walked all around...that was some d*** good work I just had done. I am just so detail oriented, I was sure something was going to stick out however, Glen really did a great job. I am very pleased with his work. I have found a painter! If/When I need a painter, Glen and Colors in Motion will be getting a call from me. The last bit of information was that on Monday, mind you, he finished on Friday afternoon, on Monday afternoon, in the mail, was a Thank you card form he and his wife, thanking us for our business. it was a great touch of class and in keeping with the level of quality and professionalism Glen and Colors in Motion possess. I ma quite satisfied with Glen, Colors In Motion, the quality of work and the way my home looks now. Thank you very much....Awesome Job Gentlemen.
