Terrible...his paint job hasn't lasted2 years! See pictures which show just a few of the spots left after his touch up crew "finished". This guy is a real crook.

"Worst customer we've had in 30 years. Are you going to leave a new bad review for me each week? Really? All F's? Perhaps you are the problem..."

Zeisler is the kind of company that picks up guys from the labor pool, sticks a paintbrush in their hand and calls them a painter. He'll take your money and butcher your house and when you complain he'll blame prior paint jobs, mildew, the age of the house (and then he'll call you crazy and inreasonable) In a nutshell, his painters are good at slapping the paint on but Prep work is beyond them. Feel free to contact me directly.

"The painters she is referring to have been with us for years. Everyone of them that worked on her house refused to go back. Never happened with any other customer. The kind of horrible that make me shake when I think about what we all went through, and the money I spent trying to make them happy only to have her post TWO complaints on this site. Again if all the other customers are thrilled with us (please read all my other reviews) then the problem is most likely with her. Do give her a call - [Member Info Removed] and see how normal and sober she is. Go see the paint job that every one else would be happy with. Also, my carpenter who everyone loves, after so much torture told her to keep her d*** money; $750 worth. He would rather work for free..."

They did an excellent job. We had some issues with timing as I was traveling a lot during the job and would have preferred to be here. However, everything went well so it didn't turn out to be a problem. They were fast, efficient and we were very happy with the quality of the work. I have used them in the past for interior painting which I would describe as miraculous in matching the colors I wanted. Jeff Wright (Project Manager) is a miracle worker at matching colors and a terrific guy to boot. They did leave several large bags of trash, painting stuff, for us to dispose of which I thought wasn't appropriate but, a minor inconvenience.

They are unquestionably our go to painters and I will surely be using them again in the future. I would highly recommend them.

I'm a fairly picky consumer when it comes to home services (we all know the efforts associated with getting estimates and then getting the work completed.) 
Steve did the right job at the right price.  His team was detail oriented, friendly and conscientious about the work they performed. and were spotless on the clean-up. Would look forward to using them again.

Steve Zeisler's crew did a terrific job painting the exterior of my house! It was power-washed and sanded before the painting began. There was quite a bit of repair work that needed to be done on exterior woodwork and shutters, and the men repaired/replaced whatever was needed. The size of the crew varied from two men to four or five, depending upon the stage of the job they had reached. I had asked the painters to be careful about opening doors and windows of the house because of my two cats and, for the most part, they were. The men were cooperative about any task I asked them to complete. They were hard workers and always appeared when they were supposed to. Because they could not paint if it had rained within six hours of starting time, the job took longer than I had expected, but that was understandable. Tom, the manager of the team, was available in person, by phone, or by text if I had any concerns or questions. The only downside of using this company was that most of this crew did not speak very much English, so communications were mainly through the foreman, who was on the job every day. I was totally pleased with the neat, careful, professional job that Steve Zeisler's Painting did for me and I intend to use this company again!

Great, good professional team. Good job, Minor areas still need small touch up as the carpenter did not finish these areas while painting was happening. Very minor.

Steve was prompt in returning my initial call and submitting an estimate. Once we decided to move forward, Steve's crew contacted me shortly and was able to complete the work in a timely manner. The guys were professional, courteous, and very good at their jobs. We were very pleased with how everything turned out, and would likely use Steve in the future.

It is the busiest time of year, so it was no surprise it took a month from the time the contract was agreed to and the service was performed. The guys arrived as scheduled and did the work as requested, with no collateral damage. The results were beyond my expectations. The power washing completely removed all the green and black algae from the house and the moss from the shed. The whole place looks infinitely better.

Steve Zeisler was very prompt and business-like. in getting the estimate done. I negotiated the price byless than 5% because it was already reasonable.
His partner later dropped by to see the site and recommend the paint that would suit our needs.
They first power washed my trim and cedar shake siding on our 5 berm 2-storey house using a peroxide-based solution that wouldn't harm our landscaping.
 After that had dried, three pleasant professional painters arrived on time with all ladders, etc and began to sand  the trim (by hand and power). Despite some very awkward heights and intruding holly trees, they methodically painted all the trim and the small true-divided light windows  without splashing paint anywhere. NO muss, no fuss--just very quietly professional. A real pleasure .  I have had many paint jobs by many painters over the past 40 years--these were easily the best. And the painted trim looks great.

Started out doing an excellent job - painters worked carefully.  Toward end the painters appeared to rush and they ended up leaving the trim in one room unpainted.  They returned to complete that room when requested but left portion unpainted and work was sloppy. 
Also, they use a cheap paint and the color in one room in particular is not at all close to the sample.

"On 12/12/12 emailed back: I was just alerted by Angie’s list about (member name removed)’s complaint. Last I knew, you were happy to be a reference. Is there something that you’d like us to fix? Please let me know. No reply from the customer. And we never use cheap paint..."

The workers are very good and they clean up well before they leave. They finished the project in one week. They did a good job.

"I'm sorry I didn't let you know that your large dog's tail rubbing on the paint could mess it up. I figured this was implied in life. As far as the porch goes, floors, decks,fences and rails are the only areas that fall outside my garantee because I guarantee they will fail no matter who paints them. As far as the price goes, my prices are always fair. Sincerely, Steve"

They were actually able to do the work sooner than anticipated.  Furthermore, they were timely, professional, and charged a competitive price.  They made the entire process very easy.

Everything went well.  It's a local company, has a good reputation in the area, and it did a good job with the painting.

they did an excellent job (so far as I could tell) but they asked for (and received) an extra 2k because, they said, there was more work than they expected. I felt that if I didn't pay it they would do a crummy job (they were half way through at the time).
Response from STEVE ZEISLER PAINTING & POWER WASHING
"We did the painting job in question in september of 02. The member's house was peeling massively. She opted for a tourough spot sanding, spot priming and repainting. If we did ask for more money (I don't show any record of that, but it was so long ago, my computer records were not that great) it was because we ended up spending way more hours sanding than I bid for at the time. Unfortunately all the areas that were not peeling when we did the job, started to peel later due to a horrible original paint job. We have a 3 year guarantee. If the member called me within the 3 years we would have (and possibly did) touch it up gladly. I don't recall ever hearing from the member, than to my utmost surprise 9 or 10 years later, the member posted a complaint about my company. I even visited her last fall to explain and ask that she dismiss this complaint of almost 10 years. Since then, our reference list has grown by thousands. What else can I do?"
