Our dedication to these values allowed M&E Painting to grow quickly from a startup working out of a condo to a well-established painting company and community leader.

M&E ruined our brand new and very expensive deck because of the inferior product they recommended as a "stain". Within months the product began bubbling, cracking, and peeling. And the stain job was never right from day one...M&E and their workers seemed puzzled by how many coats it took to complete the job, which took longer than expected, and still there remained some areas that were unevenly stained. And, no prep work whatsoever (sanding etc.) was done. Then the cracking began, and now the stain even brushes off with the simple sweep of a broom. It is clear that the wood was not stained, but more like painted. We located a detailed evaluation of this product which concluded "Benjamin Moore’s Arborcoat is prone to peeling in cold weather states...and did not perform well on a newly built deck". It was also stated that within months "the Arborcoat had peeled significantly on the brand-new pine deck. Patches of the finish had peeled off the wood in strips. You could peel back large sections of stain with your fingers. The product did not seem to have penetrated into the wood at all." M&E initially responded by coming back on two separate occasions to paint over the areas that had peeled away, which was completely ineffective and did nothing to prevent future deterioration. M&E offered to come out a third time, which we initially declined. As matters continued to worsen, we contacted M&E once more, upon which they responded "You left this issue to get worse and not be addressed when we were willing to address it, and due to this, that issue is now between you and the manufacturer". M&E, I'm sure if you had come out a third time, our problems would be magically solved? So I guess it's our fault now. We trusted M&E to recommend the right product for the job, based on their experience, but they failed, and now we will have to pay another company thousands more $$ to refinish the deck using a suitable stain, since M&E has not offered to do so. Or, maybe I should be thanking M&E for going beyond the call of duty to come up and paint over a few cracked spots, since they do not warranty decks. Lesson learned and buyer beware!

Response from M & E Painting LLC
"[Member Name Removed], thank you for your review. When we originally met with you in 2021 to discuss the staining of your deck, our estimator Kevin explained to you and your wife exactly which product we would be applying to your deck. We discussed how it would coat the deck and appear once completed. We also explained verbally and in writing in our contract that we do not warranty decks. You are correct that after the initial application, the deck was in need of additional stain which we came out to apply. When you contacted us after we stained the deck to inspect and evaluate some of the initial cracking and peeling that occurred we came back out to address the issues. You contacted us a second time and we came out to meet with you and address your concerns. Your wife contacted us a third time in September of 2022, stating you had further issues. When she contacted us, we replied immediately and recommended we come back out with the Benjamin Moore manufacturers rep. Your wife declined further help from us. She then stated, “we will be hiring another company to come out to address our deck.” You emailed us on December 9th (three months after your wife declined our third offer to help) to let us know you were “giving us one more chance.” You are correct in the response we replied with. You declined our offer to help, you let the issues with the deck worsen, and you stated you would be hiring another company. We were more than reasonable with you throughout this process and went above and beyond to respond to your requests."

The estimator was very thorough in explaining the details of what they would do. They sent someone to power wash a few days before the painting. After the painting, another man came to look for areas that needed touching up, and those then were completed right away.

Not all windows were scraped, no masking done, clean up was so so, and a can was left with unknown fluid. The window frames are painted. However a small window, not included in estimate, was painted in a professional way.
Response from M & E Painting LLC
"Hi [Member Name Removed], We are sorry to hear that your experiences with our company were not up to our standards. We would be happy to come back out and pick up the can that we left. Please also feel free to give us a call with any touch ups. (970) 207-1005. The M&E Painting Team"

Kept us informed as to what was happening if times changed. They we very professional, friendly and helpful. Accommodated our requests very professionally and returned to redo some trim work that we found not quite to our standards. They were punctual and did an excellent job. The house looks good and have other neighbors ask who did our painting.

Excellent response to calls for everything from estimates to questions. Quality workmanship. Workman were on time & management gave ample notice of potential weather delays. Management responded immediately to a problem and went to extra lengths to correct it. Extremely pleased and have already made multiple recommendations. Neighbor across the street was so pleased with seeing our results that they have had M & E paint their house too.

Just rejoined Angies list, so there's a lot of little things I probably don't clearly remember.
They used Sherwin Williams and I had a custom color mixed.
It's hard to tell what 2 coats really means. It's not like they cover it once and then go back over the same area after it dries.
More like all at once.
Still- this is 5 years later, and the job has held up very well.
A little chipping and cracking along some bottom edges where water and weather take a toll, or vertically where the siding has expanded and contracted, but nothing we can't just touch up.
So- a long lasting job for this climate and the cost.
I do remember that on last day we found a couple small places that the crew totally missed, but the foreman was very
cheerful about making sure it was done to our satisfaction.
