Everything they do is always meticulous and professional. We have known Chad for many, many years. He has worked on our home which has many rooms several times over. From a bathroom roof never attached to the roof and was floating, consequently cracking at the seems his lead guy, John, came in and attached it, sealed and painted with the utmost of quality. I now had to have work done on several rooms including repairing our fascia where squirrels worked their way in. We are giving a surprise 80th birthday for my sister in a few weeks and he managed to find time to finish the jobs before panick set in. What more can I say. They are professional, fair and you would not know they were there when finished. Nothing is too complicated for John..he is their artist and designer! It has always been a pleasure

Chad and his team are outstanding. We contacted him based on a glowing recommendation fro my daughter (the team painted the interior of her new house a year ago). They did an absolutely wonderful job for us. The price was fair and we could not be more pleased with their work. Chad is very knowledgeable about his craft and he clearly loves what he does. The team was respectful of our house. They showed up when they said they would and finished quickly. Chad and his team are a class act-a rare find! We were lucky they could fit us in to their schedule. i'd hire them again in a heartbeat. Other members rely on your review to help determine if this is the right provider

Excellent -we had Elite stain our exterior cedar siding about 3 years ago too and again that was excellent work. Chad is very knowledgeable about finishes and explains the whole procedure. His work crew are very efficient, respectful and so very good !! I would recommend Elite to anyone looking to have their home -interior or exterior - refinished.

Chad, the owner, and his crew have painted the interior of my house on two separate occasions. The current work and the work that was done over a year ago look equally beautiful. Chad is extremely knowledgeable about paint, finishes, and color. His crew is professional and hard working. You need to be patient as he schedules jobs to best utilize his team and their talents, but the finished product is worth the wait. I will be using them for an exterior job soon and I know the outcome will be fantastic!

We retained Elite Finishes for the painting of our entire first floor and two rooms on the second floor. Prior to painting, we replaced all trim and added wood feature walls, new balusters, a large fireplace mantle, and hallway lockers. Chad provided a comprehensive estimate and timeline for completion of the work. He was very responsive and available to answer our questions. Throughout the entire process, Chad was just a text or phone call away, often responding immediately or within a few hours. Due to circumstances beyond his control, Chad and his team (Jon) got started slightly later than planned, but it worked out in such a way that the team could complete large chunks of the work all at one time. Chad and Jon did an amazing job - the lines are clean and crisp, the new trim and millwork have no brush or roller lines, the ceiling is flawless, and walls are patched perfectly. We could not be happier with the quality of the work. We also relied on the team to provide input on our color selections and correct sheens for the various areas in our home. The work took roughly 3 weeks. The team was punctual, friendly, contentious and cleaned up all areas every day they were here. By the time the job was finished, Chad and Jon were like part of the family.

Chad at Elite Finishes is your go-to guy for all of your painting needs! He is professional, personable, honest and dependable. I will continue to recommend them to all of my family and friends! We decided to put our house on the market and called Elite Finishes to come paint a few rooms and staircases before listing. Chad's team was phenomenal. We already plan to use them again once we move into our new home!! If you are looking for dependable and professional painters, look no more. Call Elite Finishes, you will not be disappointed.

Chad and his team did a wonderful job painting the exterior of our 120 year old house with multi-color trim and numerous wood screens and windows. The whole team was very accommodating in color selection, detail, feedback, cleaning up each visit, etc. They worked around the weather and painted for the best long term quality of the job. Chad worked with the team to keep proper distance from each other and the home owners in response to Corona virus. We are very happy with the results and recommend Elite Finishes.

Great experience!! We had only a few weeks before we had to move in. Chad was great and enthusiastically took the job. We were so happy, now were finally moved in and we have a beautifully drywalled and freshly painted garage. The exterior is beautiful and the looks great. The whole team was very conscientious and seemed to really care how the work was done. Thanks to all of you David and Paula Turner

Chad and his Elite team did a wonderful job on my deck! It was in terrible shape from previously using a restore paint. I called a few companies and only Elite Finishes was up to the challenge to sand and stain a 700 sq ft deck. It looks brand new again! I will be using Elite for all my future painting needs. Thanks again Elite!

Amazing. The completed paint work was clean and professional; they did an awesome job. I will be working with Elite again and Chad and team were amazing to work with. They got the job done, given tough timelines in their busy season, and I appreciated the level of communication and detail that went into the project. Chad will educate you on the steps it takes for cabinet painting and it is worth-while to learn from him; my prior "not so good" experience with other painters resulted in exactly what Chad was trying to avoid and explained the logic behind the steps taken. It was very helpful. The crew worked hard, was friendly, and trustworthy. A few items were missed, it was a big project, but I know they will come back to finish those up during the next project. I would recommend them to anyone!

Chad's team Jon, Armando and his wife, did a great job. They were able to come in and take care of our furniture with professionalism and did a great job prepping and then painting. they worked very hard and worked later when necessary and then on Saturday when required. The end result was a wonderfully painted house and Jon's carpentry worked out great on the outside trim and drywall. Chad worked with us to get the job done, when necessary. Thanks Chad, Jon and Armando and wife - Great Job

Chad and his crew will be our painters going forward! I was left in a lurch by a painter who said he was going to do the job and then flaked. I called Chad at the last minute and he showed up the next day to walk the job and thoroughly described in detail what they would do. Chad is very loquacious. His crew showed up on time every day with attention to detail and great energy. They did exactly what they said they would do and the paint job has been complimented by our general contractor, electricians and friends who came over. His prices were reasonable and he explained how he came to his pricing which is helpful. Thanks Chad, you will be recommended to everyone we know!

Very well. Chad is very professional and responsive. The crew was thorough, very clean and professional - Jonathan especially was outstanding at patching. Price was very competitive with the other quotes we received and when we wanted to add more colors Chad's reply was "no problem" without additional cost. The work was completed in a very timely manner. Would use them again and highly recommend.

Very good experience. Chad (owner) came out a couple days after I contacted him, reviewed my house, and gave me a quote on the spot. After I signed a contract, I wanted to change colors and Chad had a color wheel waiting for me at a paint store in our neighborhood so my wife and I could pick a color we wanted. The painters showed up on time, were very friendly and efficient. They spent a whole day (4 people) caulking the cedar (many cracks, in between boards, and then painted two coats of stain, and fixed a few woodpecker holes. Everyone involved answered all my questions, and we could not have been happier with the quality of the work. I will use Elite Finishes for all my future painting needs.

Wonderful experience! This is the first time we ever hired painters to paint the inside of our house. I am so glad I decided to call Elite Finishes. Chad and his team were awesome. Chad is extremely easy to work worth, knowledgeable, friendly and very responsive. He came out to give us a quote right away and we hired him on the spot. There was a little bit of a mix up with the color in the bedrooms, but once we seen it we decided to keep it because it looked great and changed the color of the rest of the house. Chad was very accommodating and it wasn’t a problem at all. They are super trust worthy as well. We were able to have our house painted while at work. The painters came in through the garage and made sure to lock up. We also had some patch work done and drywall seams repaired that were showing through on very high ceilings. Chad’s crew is amazing. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. My house looks brand new! We would definitely hire them again and recommend them to friends.
