Dave was recommended by a colleague who has used his painting service for years.  He is a fine painter, detail oriented and concerned with the quality of the outcome.  He repainted a bedroom when I chose the wrong color the first time, advised on what kind of paint to buy, and saved me money by not adding an unnecessary second coat.  He met the challenge of mixing a custom color to match some old, oil-based paint on the closet doors beautifully; you cannot tell where the patch paint has been applied.  He also painted interior doors, trim and baseboards.  Dave is a busy guy, but worth waiting for.  He's also personable and easy to have around if you are home while he's working.  I felt very comfortable leaving the house in his care when I had to go to work.  And he's reasonable.  Dave also enjoys "faux" painting and has an album of styles to choose from, though I haven't done this yet.  Highly recommended.   (Painting cost was included in a larger contract so I don't know the exact amount.)
