ERNST Painting & Fine Finishes

We used Ernst to refinish our kitchen cabinets. They installed new hardware, replaced the hinges and repainted the cabinet doors and drawers fronts. The work was performed punctually and with minimal disruption. They were affordable, easy to work with and the quality was very good. The cabinets look great.

We have used Ernst painting repeatedly for our home painting and wallpaper needs. We enjoy the interaction with the entire team and have marveled at the finished product. Ernst has brought our home to life. We would not use anyone else...highly recommended! Park Ridge, IL

The whole process, from beginning to end, was handled professionally, courteously, and expeditiously. I was very satisfied with the process, the quality of the work, the follow-up, the gentlemen that performed the work, and the owner Bill. Job well done! Would highly recommend Ernst and would definitely use them again.

Fantastic. Guys showed up at 8a each morning and worked straight through to 5p each night for a week. Felt completely comfortable leaving them there alone all day. The progress from day to day was amazing. They took the drawers and doors with them to their shop for about a week, and sprayed them and they look factory level on the finish. Because the cabinets were solid ash wood the doors and drawers were not smooth on the surface, so they sprayed and sanded them 7 times to get to a smooth finish (without charging me extra!). Very responsive and trustworthy, and great value for the money. I've seen other neighbor's refinished white kitchens, and on the edges and corners you could see line from the brush or roller, but not with these guys, the boxes (bases of the cabinets) look like they came right from the factory. Will use these guys again to do our next home and have recommended them to family and friends. You just choose the color and they take it from there.

It went great. They did a beautiful job. They showed up on time, worked quickly and good finished product.

We are extremely pleased with the work Ernst Painting did for us. The drywall work and painting looks great! Just as important to us as the quality of the work was Ernst's professionalism; they wanted to be sure that we were completed satisfied with their work and took extra steps to make sure it was done right. Also, it was easy to communicate with their project manager (Vasyl) on a daily basis about the progress of the job. We definitely would use them again!

It went great! The team was very communicative and flexible with their schedules.

I have a large white painted kitchen that showed a lot of wear and tear on the lower cabinets. i need to repaint my kitchen cabinets for resale. Bill gave me the best price of three different contractors. He managed to perfectly match the color. We agreed on the date. The painters were professional and on time - 7 am on the dot. Mike came and spent 3 days meticulously sanding and painting the lower cabinets. The doors and drawers were spray painted at the shop. Mike was very neat and left the job site spotless every day. My kitchen looks great! The real estate agents can't believe how good they look. If you are thinking of painting your kitchen cabinets....I would highly recommend them. Best team of painters I have ever worked with!

Vasyl, Edgar and Abraham arrived promptly at 7:00 on 9/21/15. Vasyl was the estimator for the job and took the two painters all the way through the project pointing out what needed to be done. Fortunately we had all of the original paint still available from when we had the entire condo painted in 2012. Edgar was a PROFESSIONAL painter while Abraham was his assistant, but also a very proficient painter himself at his young age. I was not expecting such extensive patching and sanding, but the two of them were very meticulous in finding repairs to be done that I had not noticed. What I THOUGHT would be a short project stretched into a day and a half but it was well worth the inconvenience of drop clothes, paint trays, etc during the time they were working. In the end our place is like it was freshly painted from the get-go when we first moved in in 2012. Were it not for the fact that we are re-locating to CA, Ernst Painting & Decorating would have a regular customer for any painting work to be done. I thoroughly recommend them.

It went great. The painter was on time and one of the most respectful contractors I've ever hired. He did a great job. Cleaned up any mess that was made and overall it was a great experience.

Worker showed up 10 minutes early which I always appreciate but rarely happens when dealing with tradesmen. Worker was extremely courteous and worked hard/fast while he was at my home and I was very happy with the quality of work as well. Would highly recommend and hire again.

It is more like what what was not done. Purchased deal $258 for painting of trim in my kitchen in February. Bill came out to look at kitchen an give bid on painting the entire kitchen. I found other options for the painting of the kitchen. In May and June, I emailed, called and texted Bill to say I was ready for the trim to be painted and Bill never responded.

Good job done by the painter. On time and professional

very very pleased with the work. painter was courteous and professional.

We needed to have a couple of bedrooms updated before we listed our home for sale. The work was completed as quoted, very timely and great result. No mess, no need to follow up! Rooms looked great!

Bill did a great job in resurfacing our cabinets from a traditional cherry to a white finish. They look brand new and his work thusfar appears flawless. Bill also took it out of his time to stop by twice after completion to adjust some things for me. All in all, he did a great job and it was well worth it.

terrific work! They were reliable, painted the walls without adding to the cost and did excellent work on the cabinets. I was trying to match a bank of new cabinets by painting the original oak almond with a hazelnut glaze and can honestly say the painted cabinets look as good or better than the brand new, high end cabinets.

I have no idea of the quality of his work, but would never hire someone who was so unresponsive.

workman left house spotless each day. took great care to avoid paint spills, left essentially no sanding dust from doing kitchen cabinets. removed all waste. were always extremely polite. half the price of other quotes. Would use again anytime!!

I was very happy with the job. Quick and clean.

The cabinets look great, and Bill was very conscientious about making sure I was pleased with the service, offering to return for touch-ups if anything got dinged, etc.

Outstanding! Friendly, professional and high quality guidance and work.'

There were a few scheduling issues, but they were ultimately very accommodating. Angel did the work, and he was very professional and pleasant. The trim looked great when he was done, and he worked efficiently and finished more than I expected for one day's work. I used a daily deal for this service, which made it reasonably priced. Not sure whether I would have paid the full price.

The painters did a wonderful job. They sanded and prepped the walls as required and paid great attention to detail. I have used a painters in the past and I must say that I will not be changing painters again. My wife and I were more than pleased. We would highly recommend this service to anyone.

Ernst painting and decorating did excellent work on helping with the updating the look of a condo we recently purchased. Couple of highlights from the process: Estimate/Negotiation Process: Bill (the owner) came out for an estimate very quickly and listened to what we had planned for the new look of our place. He walked me through the cabinet refinished process from start to finish and answered all of the questions that I had. His pricing was very fair compared to some other vendors we had come through (I had 4 or 5 estimates come through for cabinet refinishing). He wasn't the cheapest, but I think we were able to get great value for our money and the work shows the quality of the craftsmanship Work that was done: Due to our tight time frame Bill's team was very flexible and accommodated our schedule to fit in the upgrades before we moved in. In all it took them about 5 working days to complete the work and this was around the New Year's Eve holiday. There were two painters that came through and did an excellent job. They paid special attention to protecting the floors and making sure we got the exact look we were going for in terms of the paint and trim. In addition the cabinets look phenomenal, the work for the doors themselves were done offsite, and they painted frames were done in the condo. They took them from a light oak color to white and we have had many compliments on the new look from people coming through our place. The work done was great and I would highly recommend Bill's crew (and actually already have to a co-worker).
