Scott was very helpful with planning the areas to accent vs base color. Mark and his team were always on time, professional and polite. They did exceptional work and have a great eye for detail. Everything went incredibly smooth! I would definitely hire them again for any other painting needs and highly recommend to my friends and family.

The work turned out better than expected. No one can believe the cabinets were painted when I tell them. The team works very hard and shows up on time every day. This was literally my best experience with any contractors I have ever worked with. Highly recommend.

Scott and his crew arrived on time the first day, and every day thereafter Jerry was also prompt. Scott took the door's and drawers with him and left Jerry behind to paint the cabinet frames. They applied two coats of primer and two coats of "Italian High Performance " top coat poly on everything. The whole process took 4 days. They were very professional, diligent and thorough. My kitchen looks beautiful now, I would very strongly highly recommend the "Giant Painter". I also liked that their work came with a one year guarantee!!

Scott and his employees did an excellent job on our kitchen.  It was a challenging project due to the way our cabinets were originally installed.  Scott and his crew worked diligently to ensure that our kitchen not only looks beautiful, but that the cabinets function well.  I interviewed 5 painters because it was an important and costly home improvement project and we are very particular.  While he wasn't the least expensive bid, in the end I went with my instincts and made a great decision.  Scott is extremely meticulous and takes pride in his work.  We couldn't be happier with our kitchen and highly recommend Giant Painters.

We had a terrific experience using Giant Painters. They communicated well. Their bid was fare for the work being done. They kept to their timeframe working long days. They were incredibly clean and hardworking. I was nervous about how they could get a smooth finish without taking cabinet fronts to a shop, but they have it down to a science.. Great attention to detail. They look like new!

I would recommend Scott and his team in the highest possible way.  He was extremely timely when I first contacted him to obtain a quote, provided a detailed and prompt quote to us and was extremely responsive to our questions.

When the project began, Scott and his crew were on time each day and worked with only  a lunch break.  Scott kept me posted about the progress as the job progressed and they finished earlier than the original quote. 

This was an extensive project and the level of preparation was impressive.   There was a great deal of effort taken by Scott to drape and protect our belongings, and at the end of the job, our kitchen and surrounding rooms were immaculate. 

Most importantly, our kitchen looks magnificent.  The room is entirely changed and the cabinets look new.  We could not be more thrilled and we recommend Giant Painters highly.

This is a wonderful company to work with. Scott is the owner. He is very well organized, professional, and meticulous in his work. When I initially contacted him about the project (about four weeks ago), he came out to the house that evening and got an estimate to us by the next business day as promised. He promptly scheduled the job for about two weeks later once we accepted the estimate. He arrived with crew that morning at 7:00 a.m. as he said he would. He and his crew worked non-stop for the next six days (excluding Sunday). Scott was very good about communicating their work schedule to me. He finished the project in the time he told me it would take -- five to six days.
This is a hard working group who really take pride in what they do. We are absolutely thrilled with the results. It's like our kitchen got the greatest facelift for a fraction of what brand new cabinetry would cost! Another bonus: Scott guarantees his company's work for two years, so he clearly believes in his product and his process.

Scott did a fantastic job painting our existing cabinetry.  I'm happy with the quality of work and would be happy to speak with anyone, at anytime, about our experience.

Scott and his team at Giant Painters did an excellent job painting my kitchen cabinets and master bathroom vanity.  We bought a house built in the late 1990?s with nice flush mount, shaker style, cherry hardwood cabinets that when originally
purchased were very expensive.  However, the color was a little dated and my wife and I wanted a white kitchen.  Instead of replacing the cabinets, we decided to hire Scott to repaint the cabinets, which saved us ~$15K over new cabinets.  Our friends had recently used Scott to paint their kitchen cabinets, so we had a good point of reference and knew he did
high quality work.  In the end, we couldn?t be happier with our decision.  The cabinets turned out beautiful!  From the
start we could tell that Scott was a pro. He completely covered all floors, walls and surfaces with paper and plastic to prevent any errant paint from getting on those surfaces.  After covering everything, they spent a full day cleaning my cabinets and filling any dents and nicks with a wood filler/bonding agent.  After sanding all the doors, drawers and base cabinets, they put on four separate coats of paint?first a primer, then two coats of paint, and finally a clear protective coat.  All paint coats were done with a sprayer, which made for a perfectly even finish.  The finish is extremely durable and hard (harder than trim paint), and the
cabinets turned out like they came right from the factory.  Scott?s price also beat the other quotes we received.  I think one of the reasons Scott can price his work so competitively is because he does everything right on site, and doesn?t have a lot of overhead. 
Other painters we talked to have to take all your doors and drawers back to their shop, and this usually takes two+ weeks to complete.  Scott and his team finished my kitchen and bathroom vanity in five days, right on site. All in all, we highly recommend Scott and Giant painters!

My husband and I are happy to give Giant Painters our highest recommendation. A few months
ago we purchased our dream home on a beautiful lake. The house has the perfect
white kitchen with all the latest stainless Viking appliances. The only problem
was that the white cabinets had yellowed slightly over the years. We considered
replacing the cabinets. But they are of superior quality and replacing them
would have been hugely expensive and unnecessary. So we decided to repaint
them. With that goal in mind, we interviewed several painters. It quickly
became clear to us the Giant Painters is a step above everyone else. As with
any successful painting project, preparation is the key?and these people are
professional beyond professional. They thoroughly washed the cabinets then removed
the doors and drawers, as well as all the hardware, which we wanted to replace
with more modern hardware. Then they taped off everything that abuts the
cabinet frames and sealed off the room from the rest of the house so well that
it resembled a surgical clean room. They then sanded, primed and bake-sprayed. The
process, including installing new hardware, took over a week but when all was
said and done the cabinets had a factory finish that looks brand new. Thank you
Giant Painters for a job amazingly well done. My husband and I just love our
kitchen!

Scott did a fantastic job on turning my dark kitchen into a brand new looking light kitchen! My cabinets were walnut stained, and I went to white. My stainless steel appliances pop now!
I was impressed by the care he took masking off everything before he began his work. It is top notch and I love it!

Giant Painters were very professional from the start to the end. After our phone conversation, Scott stopped by to provide us with a detailed estimate. Scott made great recommendation on the type of paint finish we should choose, which was very helpful.



A week later a crew of 2 arrived to begin the work. They were both very professional throughout the project and make sure everything was properly covered and protected in preparation for the painting. They took their time to make sure that every bump on the wall was removed and every hole patched up.



After the project was completed, all the rooms looked great! The paint looked even and the transitions from the ceiling to the walls were very sharp and straight. Thank you Giant Painters for doing such a great job. We will call you again for our next project.

My experience with Giant Painters was excellent. Scott came to my house to look at what I wanted painted, and in a couple of days I had my estimate. I had gotten a few other estimates from other painters and his was the best, plus I got a 20% discount for having the painting done in winter. He showed up on time and was always professional.
Everything turned out beautiful, and when he was done everything was put back in place. I would highly recommend Giant Painters to anyone looking for a painter.

Scott and his crew did an outstanding job. They arrived on time each day and cleaned up each evening before leaving. We never felt like we were living in a construction zone. They moved the furniture out of the way and made sure it was covered. They also did a fantastic job protecting our wood flooring, something we were worried about. They worked efficiently and the entire project was finished when promised. I was so pleased to notice that Scott replaced a broken trim around one of the windows. It was not included in the original proposal but Scott replaced it at no additional cost. We were so happy with the finished product that we also hired Giant Painters to re-stain our deck. I will recommend them to all my family and friends because I know they will provide exceptional service.
