Easy to work with. Good communication skills. Got the job done on-time and well. Am getting a quote from Tony on another job.

This company did not stand behind their work. We used them to paint several of our rooms, after the work wasfinished we found several places that had not been painted, the old color was still seen and several placeson our woodwork had paint on it. They use cheap paint and do not stand behind there work. I would neverhire them again.
Response from MODERN DECORATORS
"It is unfortunate that this customer had to come online to make up a lie. I've been working for her for 7 yrs. painted the inside multiple times and went out of my way to put her ahead of others. When it came time to repaint the exterior her husband was unhappy with my price. I apologizes and told him that I use the best paint I could buy. In the mean time I repainted their master bed and bath for the third time (because they like a different color every few years). The member is the kind of customer I just kept her number in my phone because I did so much work for her so she knows if there was ever a missed spot or paint on the trim I'd always be there in a heart beat to fix it. So her comment holds no water. Also $1500 to paint bed and bath? I don't think so the cost was more like $500. It's to bad she couldn't just call me and have a discussion instead of taking to the Internet. I invite anyone to walk into the Glidden professional paint store in west des moines and ask them about what kind of products tony the painter buys. I buy their best products available always have. I very much assume she didn't write this post it was her husband since he's the one who didn't like my price to repaint the exterior of the house after 7 yrs. I wish them both the best of luck with their new painter. I enjoyed doing work for the member and discussing new and fun colors."

I've had several rooms painted by Modern Decorators and have been happy with the results.

Tony was very quick to call and schedule an estimate which was very reasonable. He quickly set up a time to do the painting and did a wonderful job! He was very prompt, courteous and professional.

The company did an amazing job with everything. We particularly appreciated the color suggestion and the attention paid to the detail work on the trim.

Overall, I'd say it was a good experience. Tony was extremely fair with the price he charged and the house looks better than it has for years.

The house looks great and they were here when they said they were going to be here. They cleaned up each night when they were done for the day. It took about one week to finish. Some of the repair on the stucco could be done a little bit different, but overall it looks very good. On the last day he went around the house with me to look for anything that needed to be touched up or areas that were missed. We found a couple of touch up area and they quickly took care of the problem. I would hire Tony again.

The company was recommended to us by a family member. Tony, the owner, showed up on time to give us an estimate. The estimate was very competitive. We scheduled the work about a month after getting the estimate and we were still able to get the house painted within one month. The crew got the job done in the time estimated and Tony checked back with us personally to ensure the work was done to our satisfaction. We were very pleased.

Great! Did work on schedule and on budget. Also recommended and managed a contractor to do siding repair prior to the job.

Terrible: Do not hire them. Splattered paint on hardwood floors all over the house, damaged brand new windows which I had to pay for, voided warranty on windows because they took them apart, wasn't able to match stain at all for all woodwork, paint on windows looked terrible, brush strokes everywhere. Overall, terrible experience with them charging 1000 over the bid, even though they did a terrible job. Owner was Tony Eckman, who was nice but not capable for this type of job.
