"On or about September 25, 2025, I contacted Angi to hire a professional painter to paint the exterior of my home. Later that day I received a call from Kelly from Atlanta Painting Company and set a date for September 26, 2025 @ noon for a free estimate. On September 26, 2025, I received a text from Michael C. Goodin stating that he could come at 11: 00 am and conduct the estimate. Michael walked around my property and quoted an estimate of $3,375.82, I thought that was high from simply painting the trim of my home, but the HOA was involved, and I needed to get this done, so I agreed. I received an email from Allysa Escalante from Atlanta Painting Company stating that they would like to start the work on Tuesday September 30, 2025. I received another emailed that same day from Cynthia Hendry from Atlanta Painting Company stating that the crew would arrive on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, the length of the job would take three days, requested the $1,013.95 deposit and other related information. I thought it was odd that Michael texted me later that day pushing for the $1,013.95 deposit as this was a Friday, so I sent the deposit. On Monday September 29, 2025, I received an email from Jorge Arredondo, (project manager), for Atlanta Painting Company stating that he and the painting crew would arrive on Tuesday September 30, 2025, between 8:30 to 9:30 am to start the job. On September 30, 2025, at about 9:30, a two-man crew that did not speak English showed up, no Jorge Arredondo, (the English-speaking project manager) and attempted to communicate with me requesting I do a walk around my property to verify the estimate. This was something I could not do as I am a disabled veteran with a total knee replacement, and I told Michael about this. I contacted Michael by text and asked him why Jorge was not here, and he could not give me an answer other than Jorge was calling my phone as we texted. I told Michael to have Jorge leave a message. On that same day, Jorge left a message stating that he would be at my home the next day at 9:30 am and we would discuss why he failed to communicate with me. On October 1, 2025, @ 9:30 am the two-man crew that did not speak English showed up, no Jorge. I text Jorge about his lateness and lack of communication. I informed him that I was not happy with the quality of service, and I would speak to Michael about this. I contact Michael and stated that I have a big problem with Jorge’s lateness, lack of communication and quality of service. Michael stated that I should give Jorge another chance and that he vouches for this guy, I told Michael that’s not going to happen. You only get one chance to make a good impression. I when on to discuss items on the estimate the was either not done or should have been removed prior to September 30, 2025. These items were the back basement door; it should not have been on the estimate because I didn’t ask for that work to be done and the removal of the cost concerning the vinyl windows as they cannot be painted. I also requested an itemization of the estimate and how he came to the $3,375.82 quote. Michael stated that his company does not individually itemize their estimates. I informed Michael that we need to go over the numbers before reaching a final payment, he agreed. I also asked Michael are you just a salesman or are you the contractor? Michael never responded. Later that day, the two-man, non-English-speaking crew asked for final payment. I don’t know if they understood me when I told them I would speak to Michael and Jorge concerning that. These two men waited outside my property for about 30 minutes. I contact Michael again via text and asked why they are still here, what are they waiting for and do I need to call the police? I received no reply from Michael and the two men left shortly after.Angi It was my understanding that Michael and I would go over the estimate and agree on a lower price since there was no contract for the final payment, and that never happen. I am unsure if the work was properly done, since Michael and Jorge stopped communicating with me and the Atlanta Painting Company just disappeared. [Non first hand experience redacted] There was no supervision by Jorge to ensure the job with done right and, I believe the two painters were un-documented. I contacted Angi to avoid issues like this. I really don’t know who came to my home and why it got weird when I asked more questions. I set my home security system each night as I fear for the safety of myself and family because of this interaction. I expect a full refund of my deposit of $1,013.95 and no further communications anyone from Atlanta Painting Company"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Absolutely Outstanding Work I was blown away by how skilled, professional, and efficient JJ & K Painting LLC was. From start to finish, the experience was incredible. Me and my wife couldn’t be happier with the results. They pressure washed, fully prepped, and protected everything—including covering both of our cars with plastic for extra peace of mind. Every step was done with care and respect. The crew was extremely courteous, respectful, and clearly took pride in their work. Their pricing was very competitive, especially considering the quality and speed. My home is two stories with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and they completed the entire exterior in about two days—and it looks amazing.

"Jose Orozco did not bother to replace rotten cedar siding before he painted over them. Then on walkthrough he admitted that there were some panels that needed to be replaced. He said he would be back in the spring to replace and paint the bad wood. He has refused to answer my calls and texts. I would not recommend this painting company."

"I'm a real customer, sharing a real review. I have to admit, I went into this project with skepticism about finding a reliable painter to do the job. After receiving a few estimates from various painters, I recognized a significant difference (in a positive way) in how That 1 Painter did business. Even before I agreed to use them, they were responsive, professional and very easy to talk with. Although they weren't the cheapest in price, they were certainly top notch, and - as the old saying goes - you get what you pay for. I am very happy with the results- they did an excellent job on the exterior of my home. From Michael, to Parker, to Jesus (the actual painter), everyone went out of their way to make this job a pleasant experience. I will definitely use them again."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

If you’re looking for durability or outdoor use, opt for enamel paint. Enamel paint is typically oil- or lacquer-based, so it dries hard and it’s ideal for exposure to the elements. Latex paint is water-based and has more flexibility when it dries so it won’t hold up as well to changes in temperature or exposure to wind, sun, or rain.

Whether you use a brush or roller depends on the size, shape, and amount of tiles. Rollers are easier to maneuver over large areas and can apply a more even coat of paint in a shorter time frame with no visible brushstrokes. Brushes are best for precision work, particularly in very small areas. If you don't want visible brushstrokes on your painted tiles, you can paint details with small foam brushes instead of bristled paint brushes.

Renting a sprayer is the easiest way to paint a barn, but for detailed areas, you’ll want to use a hand brush to get the job done. If you don’t wish to rent a sprayer, you can also use a roller to hand-paint your barn, but this will add time to your project.

You'll need at least two coats of paint when painting your stair railings, despite some manufacturers' claims of single-coat coverage. This is necessary mostly because there are often many corners and details that make it difficult to cover all surfaces evenly with a single coat. Adding a second coat evens out the finish and provides added durability.

Painting over stucco is a great idea when done correctly. It provides an opportunity to refresh and protect the exterior, improving a home's curb appeal. Moreover, it adds a protective layer against the elements, preventing moisture infiltration and reducing the risk of stucco damage. However, proper preparation, including cleaning, repairing cracks, and applying the appropriate primer, is crucial for a successful outcome. Using high-quality paint is also essential for long-lasting results. When done with care and attention to detail, painting over stucco can be a cost-effective way to transform and maintain your home's exterior.
