"We first used Lookswell more than 30 years ago when we lived in Chicago before heading out to Barrington to raise a family. We used many different painting contractors over the years in our home there. Two years ago, as empty nesters, we bought a condo in Evanston, which had recently been painted top to bottom in a dark beige. Wondering if Lookswell was still around and whether they'd make the trek to Evanston now, I googled them and was happy to see that they were indeed still in business after all those years. It was so good to meet up with Jim Scanlon again when he came out to look at the work we needed done - somehow he didn't look a day older after 30 years?! The following day Jim's office manager, Cindy, sent a detailed proposal via email and got us on the schedule. We did have to wait a month or so but were in no rush since I hadn't even picked paint colors yet. We didn't get any other bids because our experiences with Lookswell in the past had always been perfect and the price seemed very reasonable. The crew assigned to our job included a supervisor, Fernando, and an awesome group of painters - Alberto, Alex and Luis. Fermando would stop by regularly to check on the work underway. Our condo has two story ceilings which I assumed would be challenging but that Jim's crew handled with ease. Each morning they arrived at 8am and spent quite a bit of time prepping the work area with lots of protective plastic and carefully removing pictures and moving furniture. They were extremely careful and very tolerant of the fact I still hadn't selected a color (so many shades of white to choose from..) by the time they arrived to start the job. Fernando helped me pick a white that turned out to be perfect with the north light in our condo. Their next challenge was my inability to choose a shade of grey for a wide swath of wall that curves to become part of the ceiling right in the center of our living area. Fernando came to the rescue again, suggesting trying one of my choices to see if I liked it and if not, they'd repaint. I did indeed decide to go a shade darker after my first choice was up and they graciously repainted that very challenging area for me - with smiles on their faces to boot. Nothing was too much trouble - they removed lots of wall anchors and repaired all the holes left behind from shelves I'd decided would not be rehung in their previous locations. Alberto and Alex had all the tools necessary to remove any hardware necessary - every size allen wrench in existence it seemed. They somehow painted an area I didn't think could even be accessed - I have no idea how they were able to reach a deep and very narrow recessed slot where a set of floor to ceiling height glass pocket doors retract. But they did. I was out at the time they handled that challenging area so the how is still a mystery. We would not hesitate to call on Lookswell the next time we need anything painted and in fact plan to have them repaint or restain our Valcucine cabinets next. Just need to pick a color..."

"John Hutchins, founder and owner of Kent Kitchens, was professional and lovely to work with. I proposed a new kitchen design (total gut remodel), which also required a lot of electric and plumbing re-work. John measured everything and drew it out by hand; then mocked up an electronic graphic rendition. John and team were timely with correspondence, meetings, and finished my model in perfect time. I would absolutely hire his firm again for any remodeling he would do for me! Very happy with the performance of Kent Kitchens. Attached old and new kitchen photos."

"They did an amazing job on our kitchen ceiling. Very professional we will be doing business with them again."

"I hate being condescended to. Listen to what I want and then give suggestions on how I might be able to work that out in my kitchen. Don't just tell me it can't be done. I felt like I was wasting my time. I asked about a particular type of closet (not realizing it was part of a bigger cabinet...how would I know) and she told me to follow her (using her finger to me like a child) and said I couldn't have it because it was as part of a bigger piece. She could have just said that. I said if I can't make my kitchen more "usable" (less wasted space), WHY to with custom cabinets. I could just reface. The woman behind me who was waiting to ask her a question said. Listen, if you can't get what you want, I don't blame you for not spending the money. It's easy to reface. So, I called another company and, low and behold, I'm getting partial refacing and partial custom cabinets. He came and we discussed HOW I could get my carousel cabinet (uh - he suggested I go from a double to a single sink - easy peasy) AND, he came in at half the price your website suggested I might pay. It is really nice to be listened to...especially when it's MY money I'm spending."

"Luis did an excellent job painting my bathroom ceiling,kitchen and my daughter room wall. I would definitely use his service again."

"Francisco and Judy did excellent work. They repaired and painted my living room, dining room and kitchen ceilings and walls. The rooms haven't looked this good in many years. Also, the cleanup was fantastic! In addition to their professionalism, their friendliness and help made them so easy to work with. They said that they would take care of my home as if it was their own, and they did."

"This company did a great job repairing a cabinet at a very reasonable price"

"We had a backsplash project for our kitchen I'm glad we hired them. Best customer service I've had in a long time. Me and my wife are more than happy with the outcome. They go the extra mile and have great attention to detail."
