Vinny's Painting & Handiwork

Not well.

p

Courteous and professional.

work was performed in a careful and professional manner work was performed as promised and completed when promised painters and Vincent were courteous and responsive to our concerns

They did what they said they would do, they were professional and reasonably priced.

I called Vinnie based on his rating with Angie's. He came by the next day to give me an estimate. He was straightforward about special situations, but seemed to have a good clear knowledge of the job requirements. He was on the job the first day, introducing workers, and finalizing instructions. I tried to be as distant as I could be since I wasn't running the job. Unfortunately, Vinnie wasn't either. His painters, in spite of my direct request, chose not to completely cover the oak floors, so there ended up being paint tracked on them, and splatters from sprayers. The painters were not fluent in English, and so I couldn't be sure they understood what I was saying to them. They nodded and said "OK" to everything I said, then didn't seem to have paid attention. The worker who was to do the windows and the caulking/retouch on the exterior couldn't get the screens off the jalousies, and didn't have a long enough ladder to reach the high areas of siding (it's a two-story building). I dealt with the screens and had them off in 25 minutes. The jalousie panes had dirt on them when he left. I can only hope he actually caulked as ordered, because I can't get up on a ladder to check on his work The workmen were on site for 4 days. The 5th day Vinnie sent a "cleaner" to take care of all the issues. He did a great job (wish he'd been there all the time). After a day's work, the issues were all resolved. I met Vinnie the next day, did a walkthrough, and paid him, but pointed out some work on the porch which hadn't been completed. True to his word he sent the "cleaner" around the next day and all the points were taken care of. I'm happy with the final job, but Vinnie isn't managing his people. On the other hand, he's easy to get along with, and eager to please. But some things irk, such as not seeing him onsite for five days, and hearing him try to excuse his painters' poor customer relationships. He said he had to take jobs in another county now, because of the poor economy, which I'm sure is true. Still, that's not my problem, and shouldn't be. I don't like finishing up work I've paid for, and I'd like to see the bossman on the site more than five days after the job began. I believe Vinnie can do good work, but he was too preoccupied with other jobs to really keep an eye on mine.

I dismissed him before he finished all of the work. He used illegals. They were very messy, They did not do a good job. He was extremely difficult to work with, we ended up in a shouting match. After I told him I got him from Angie's List, he did try to make some amends and try to be more cooperative.

I called and they seemed professional. They set the appointment which for four days out for 8 A.M. and they never showed up. I called and left a message stating that he had an appointment and told him that he needed to be on time. When he called back, he never apologized for not showing up, just left his name and number which is totally unacceptable to me.

I found Vinny's painting on Angie's list, and promptly called him because of the excellent feedback that he had on this site. Within a few hours he had returned my call to set up an appointment and initial estimate. His estimate was fair, and after a few minutes, I could tell we were going to get a professional job well done. We set up the contract, and his estimate was fair and very reasonable for painting the entire interior of our 1700 square foot house. We set up a follow up appointment to arrange our final paint colors, and his workers showed up to start the job. Their task was to paint 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and our kitchen, dining room, and den area. They did so in three short days. Their staff was professional, prompt and courteous. They even fixed an accent wall that had been mispainted due to bad information, and corrected the oversight within 20 minutes. Even after they were done, my wife was not happy with the kitchen color she had picked, so they agreed to re do it for a fair price. Overall, very professional, prompt, and timely service. I would recommend this company to anyone and plan on using them again once I can save up to paint the exterior of my house. Paint lines were clean and all of our furniture was put back in its place after the painters were done. Overall, excellent job. Thanks Vinny.

Response was good from initial call. Vinny came out promptly and submitted proposal on the spot. Work was started the week following my authorization and took most of two weeks to complete. There were three days of down time while waiting for the stucco sub-contractor to get there. Stucco repair was excellent.

After giving an estimate, on a Friday the work was scheduled to begin with the carpenter making a few repairs on Monday and the painter to begin Thursday. On Monday the painter came so I showed him the stain we wanted put on a new door and he got sample chip to take to store to get the paint for the facia. He painted the facia that did not need to be repaired and stained the door. He returned the next day to put polyurthane on the door. Said he'd return to finish painting after repair was completed. The carpenter did come the following day and was to notify painter to return but I guess he forgot as I had to call Vinny .After several calls, the painter returned after about 10 days. He had painted wrong color so re-painted the front facia. I did feel that the charge for painting the facia was high since it amounted to about the same as I had painted for the kitchen walls and cabinet doors. The facia took less than 2hrs to paint.

Excellent. Vinny came out for an estimate 2 days (right on time) after contact and work started the next day. All workers were professional and cleaned up everything after they were finished. Entire house was painted in two days with all furniture moved back to the original location. All work was very neat with NO mess. Vinny checked in daily to make sure everything was being done to my satisfaction.

They were very quick. He had a good crew, but I found that some of the painters were a little sloppy. They left a section of a wall that I had a cabinet on, they never took the wallpaper down or painted, I had to call them back. They did it after that, and retouched some areas. I'd have to think about hiring them again.

I was satisfied.

I called Vinny in the afternoon and he returned my call the next morning and came out a day later to give me an estimate. That was on Friday and he had painters in our home first thing Monday morning to begin. There were three folks working and they were so very nice, competent, and quick. They wasted no time, completing the painting by mid afternoon. They then returned the next day to put new hardware on and rehang the cabinet doors. That took about an hour and a half. Andrey and his wife and son are such nice quiet folks to have working in one's home. They left the work area spotless both days.

FROM THE TIME VINNY CAME TO GIVE THE ESTIMATE THROUGH THE LAST BRUSH STROKE EVERYTHING WENT LIKE CLOCK WORK. I COULD NOT HAVE HAD A SMOOTHER OPERATION. THE CREW CAME AS SCHEDULED AND WORKED UNINTERRUPTED TO THE END OF THE DAY. THEY LEFT EVERYTHING IN ORDER AND CLEAN AND WERE TWO OF THE NICEST YOUNG MEN YOU COULD WANT WORKING IN YOUR HOME. THE WORK TOOK TWO AND A HALF DAYS, A HALF A DAY LESS THAN EXPECTED. THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT THE NEXT PAINTING PROJECT I HAVE WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED BY VINNY AND CREW.

Did a great job. Very professional. Paint job was excellent. Only problem I had was that he doesn't honor his coupons that are displayed prominently on Angie's List. His coupon is for $200 off exterior painting. His quote was $2,000 which was a fair estimate. I told him I had a coupon and he said that his price was "firm" and that he couldn't give me the $200 off. This is clearly false advertising. We agreed on $100 off and he ended up doing a great job. But a coupon is a coupon and it shouldn't be out there if it isn't honored.

Vinny gave me an estimate and was able to start the next week. The painters arrived (Andy and Nina)and set to work immediately. They worked almost non-stop for three days. No mess and no problems. I did have to buy extra paint, but no big deal.

Initially, there was several postponements, but after the job was begun the work was thorough, quick and professional.

Called Vinny's' based on Angles list rating. Did not receive a phone call back for three days. Then contractor could not arrive at our home to give an estimate for four more days. Apparently he is too busy.

The guys who sprayed on the orange peel did a nice job and the painters did a beautiful job. They both made every effort to clean after they finished. The guys who were initially supposed to install the doors and light fixtures came in and did the lights but never came back to do the doors. Vinny had to scramble to find someone else to do the job. Some damage occurred while the work was being done, but Vinny made sure that everything was fixed to my satisfaction. The job was supposed to be completed in a week and it ended up taking about three weeks. Vinny asked for no money up front. I didn't have to pay him anything until the job was almost complete and then we held back 10 percent until all the repairs were made. I would definitely hire him again for the painting, but I'm not sure that I would for handiwork.

Vinny sent a crew of four painters at the time he promised. They painted without taking more than a short lunch break and virtually finished the first day. On the second day, the added room was painted, and subsequently on the third day the plywood was replaced and painted. The clean-up was complete and everything went according to the contract. I plan to use his company to paint the interior of my house also.

We hired Vinny's to paint the inside of our business. Before that, we hired them to paint the outside of our business. Before we hired him to paint the outside of our business, we hired him to paint the outside of our home. Needless to say, we have been very happy with Vinny's Painting and Handiwork. They are always there when promised and complete the job they say they will. There are always "little things" that need to be taken care of, and this company has always done the job. We have used this company 3 times between our home and our business. This company would be the first we would call again, and we have recommended it to others.

I recommend him and I would hire him again. He kept to the proposal and his people did an excellent job.
