A big thank you to Todd Cartmel and his team at the Painter’s Edge! We purchased a second home in Westfield IN. We closed in early June and would not move in for about 8 weeks, going back to our home state in the meantime. Our new Indiana home needed wall repair and paint FOR THE ENTIRE HOME, big job. I called a few painting companies, we met with Todd and he was so knowledgeable and willing to work with our flooring company and our schedule that we hired him! We needed Todd to coordinate with our flooring company and get the job done while we were away. We had a July deadline to be back in our home. First, the home looks brand new and the Todd’s crew were completed with the job before our deadline. We could not be more pleased with the results! Todd has excellent plaster/wall repair team members who fix all of the imperfections, nail holes, nail pops, etc. If you do not do this work first the painting will not look as good when finished. His team are masters at cleaning up the walls (and our home was FULL of nail pops, only 7 years old). Next Todd helped us with the paint color – we were looking to get away from Gray, we went with warm colors – beige and Tennessee Oak floors – Todd took our color ideas, purchased the paint and it is the perfect color for us – it looks fantastic! I would also like to mention trust – we had Todd’s crew coming and going (we were not in Indiana!), working on the home, locking it up each end of day, keeping it clean. You have to trust your painting company to do the right thing and take good care of your property! Todd kept in constant contact with us and coordinated with our flooring company. I want to say the entire job exceeded our expectations. The home looks brand new and we love it. We highly recommend Todd and his team. They truly do what they say they are going to do, they are trustworthy and they are masters at their craft. Todd will be a trusted advisor and vendor to us for a long time in the future!

Todd and his teams are absolutely fabulous. They are professional, courteous, and the work is of highest quality. Every member of the team pays careful attention to detail and they are committed to ensuring their work exceeds expectations. I can't compliment the teams enough from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend The Painting Edge and plan to continue using them forward!

We just had the exterior of our home painted by The Painting Edge, and we are absolutely thrilled with the results! From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to quality that truly set them apart. We have used The Painting Edge for over 20 years for both interior and exterior painting, and are always impressed with the finished product. They painted the exterior of our home 10 years ago, and it still looked so good we knew we had to use them again! Our experience began with a prompt response from Todd Cartmel, owner of The Painting Edge. He provided a detailed estimate, that discussed the difference in price of staying with the same color or changing the color--we opted to change the color, and our house literally has been transformed! Todd was also very accommodating in replacing our outdated shutters. We showed us some options, we chose, and then he and his team took care of measuring, ordering and installing updated shutters. The painting crew, led by Jesus, arrived on schedule every day and immediately impressed us with their meticulous prep work. They took great care to power wash, scrape any loose paint, caulk cracks, where needed, and provided pictures of minor wood damage that required repair, and provided options for the repair. The painting itself was done with precision and efficiency. The team worked diligently, demonstrating skill in brushing and rolling two coats of high-quality exterior paint. They maintained a clean work area throughout the project, minimizing disruption to our daily routine. They even vacuumed our mulch at the end of the prep days to remove any and all paint chips! Impressive! We cannot recommend The Painting Edge highly enough for any painting needs. Their exceptional craftsmanship, attention to detail, professional team, and commitment to customer satisfaction made the entire experience enjoyable. We will actually miss having Jesus and his team around!

We had a wonderful experience with The Painting Edge! Todd was responsive and proactively communicated from start to finish. Richard & Luiz were detailed, polite, and kept everything clean and tidy during the week they were completing the project. We are so pleased with the finished result and will definitely use them again in the future.

1. I love this painting company! Todd, the owner of the company personally came to give us a quote and discussed any/all issues that are anticipated during the job. Very professional and very detail oriented. He made sure we had color samples in large print so we could actually view them in our room for a few days 2. While waiting for the crew to finish up a job, Todd kept us informed and when the crew came to the house he also came and introduced them 3. We knew the plan, the colors we had chosen and how many days it would take for each area. We divided the job into three areas and the crew moved all the furniture and placed it in an agreed upon area. They cleaned each area as they finished. They even cleaned the mirrors. They patched nail holes and found places where the wall board and nails separated and fixed those in every room. They protected everything in our home and there was not one mess anywhere. They hand painted the edges of every room and that in itself is impressive 4. There is no payment or down payment until the job is finished and you are satisfied...VERY CUSTOMER ORIENTED!!! 5. They have set times every day so you know when they will arrive and when they will leave and that frees you up to do what you want 6. I would highly recommend this company to anyone for inside, outside or cabinet painting. We are very pleased and found the entire crew to be quite pleasant and respectful of our needs. We can no longer paint for ourselves and they will never know what this meant to us! Thank you Todd - Owner; Paul-crew leader; Mike and Donnie crew members.

The Painting Edge just completed painting most of the interior of our home—ceilings, walls, and trim as well as our front door and surround. They did an absolutely wonderful job. Todd Cartmel was very helpful in the selection of paint colors to use. His price estimates were very competitive with other estimates we received. He inspected our house thoroughly to tell us how to prepare for each room’s work. He also scheduled the work around a family event we had coming up. His painters and drywall person were all friendly, courteous and thorough. Brian, Mike and Willie were the painters that were here the most often. Jordan, Paul and Josh were here as well. We were extremely comfortable having them in our home. They took great care preparing all of the surfaces and moving and draping the furniture and floors. They were always on time in the morning and had their work spaces clean and neat on leaving in the afternoons. They were very flexible about working around our schedule. Their drywall guy, Ray, was a superior craftsman. The sections of drywall and ceiling that he repaired are indistinguishable from the surrounding areas. Most importantly, all of our ceilings, walls and trim and our front door all look great now. Their final cost was well within their estimate. In short, we are extremely pleased with their work. We would not hesitate to call them again for any future painting needs!

Jesus and his crew did a fantastic job! All damaged wood was removed, replaced, primed on all sides and then remounted. Caulking was neatly and extensively done prior to painting with high quality paint. Even the hardware on the garage doors was removed and spray painted. The team was always on time, communicated well, and kept a neat worksite. My house looks better than new. (I also had the same company do a wonderful job of extensive interior painting)

Totally pro. From start to finish. Typical process - power wash, scrape, caulk and a coat of paint. The Painting Edge process - power wash, scrape, hand wash, power sand(!) caulk, oil-based primer coat on all surfaces, then finishing latex coat. Next up - big crew - up to 8 on some days, 6 the others so it went *fast* Five days start to finish. Great crew. Nice guys. Hard workers. If you want the best, I highly recommend.

We highly recommend The Painting Edge without question. I first reached out to Todd, the owner, on a Saturday and he promptly responded. He arranged to come out to our home to evaluate and discuss our needs and then returned again with the painter/spray tech, Kevin, to fully assess the project. We were both impressed and appreciative of this level of attention and communication. Kevin has excellent skills and gave our project exceptional attention to detail. He was meticulous, courteous and tidy. He did an amazing job and the final results far surpassed anything we were expecting. We could not be happier with the entire experience.

We bought a house in Indiana while moving from Texas. Todd was flexible to meet with me and provided a very fair price to do the work. We agreed to have the entire house, upstairs and downstairs wall's and trim painted, including the front and back exterior doors. Todd met me at the house the day his crew showed up we went over everything together. I was impressed with the professionalism of his crew. Paul, Shawn and Mike were in my home for 2 weeks painting while my wife and I were traveling back n forth between Indiana and Texas. Paul, Shawn and Mike WAY exceeded our expectations. They were very careful and even taught me a thing or 2 while there. If you are looking for a TOP Notch company and a crew that you can trust, you can NOT go wrong With Edge, Todd, Paul, Mike and Shawn. We will use them for all of our painting needs in the future.

The Painting edge was great to work with for our staining project. From the beginning with Todd, to the end with Debbie, communication was great. Debbie made sure I was completely happy with my project. I love, love, love how my stairs that used to have carpet look now with stain on them. I have included some pictures of before and after. If you need someone for your staining project, The Painting Edge is your team.

My wife and I wanted to paint the trim on our house as well as our front door. I had used The Painting Edge (TPE) before when we had a wall that needed to be repainted after experiencing some water damage. My experience with TPE on this job was wonderful, thus I had full confidence that they'd do a great job with the trim/front door painting project. Todd Cartmel is the owner of TPE and is a pleasure to work with...he performed the estimate which we accepted and then kept me well informed as to when they would perform the job. He made sure he understood what the job entailed and maintained consistent/professional communication with me all along the way up through and after the project was performed. The crew was outstanding...one individual was designated as my contact and managed the crew ensuring that they understood what we wanted and took extra care not to damage landscaping. In summary, my experience with TPE and Todd was just outstanding...I didn't have to worry that the job would be performed professionally, there would always be a manager onsite, and Todd would always be accessible if I had any issues. I will use them again for any future painting need, interior or exterior.

The Painting Edge did a tremendous job painting the basement of my new home. Great work by the painting team each day, and every communicative on expectations and an ETA of completion. If I need another room painted in the future I know who to call.

Todd’s team is incredible. Jesus is his team lead and the attention to detail was the best of the best for contractors I have recently hired. The crew took care of our house and did not damage anything and kept paint off of all items that were not supposed to be painted. Our house is pretty large, 6000 sq ft, and this crew prepped and painted in just 4 days. All wood was recaulked and painted along with our brick. Each day they let me know when they found an issue, wood rot and holes in brick mortar. All was then quoted and repaired at a very reasonable price. I would definitely hire this group again for my indoor work!

Todd Cartmel was very knowledgeable about color choice and what to look for in choosing the right color. The color consultation he provided us was invaluable. He took his time with our project. The painting crew (Mike and Brian) were impeccable painters and were as personable as they were professional. They treated our home during the three days they were here with respect and cleaned up at the end of each day. Both guys were very friendly and gentlemanly. The finished project turned out more beautiful than we anticipated. This is definitely a 5-star company.

When I first reached out to Todd at The Painting Edge he was super quick to get back to us and come out to see our space and what we were wanting. He explained in detail the process of painting cabinets and exactly what we should expect. After getting quotes from multiple contractors, we found The Painting Edge to be very reasonable. Our project began within a month and Todd made sure to be onsite that first morning to introduce his team to us. Rich and Nate were so great to work with during the duration of our project. They were friendly and very thorough not to mention timely. They accommodated my schedule each day. They worked really hard and finished a day earlier than originally planned. My kitchen cabinets look and feel beautiful. I'm so happy with their work and will absolutely use The Painting Edge again for any future work. Not to mention they were great with my dogs :)

Todd and his team are amazing to work with. I was dealing with a difficult drywall repair for a bathroom renovation, and also needed my ceiling, walls, and trim painted. Todd's crew is amazing, and they went above and beyond to fix the drywall, surpassing my expectations. His team has a lot of experience and I was very happy with the end result. The painting is professionally done, which makes a big difference vs just a jack of all trades doing the work. The crew is timely, tidy, and focused on quality. I've learned to really appreciate companies that specialize in specific areas (such as drywall and painting) to get the best results. I'm already discussing other projects with Todd and would absolutely use them again.

The owner is Todd Cartmel, who is wonderful to work with and very conscientious. I did a complete interior renovation of my house after damage from a water line leak, including all new doors and trim. After getting multiple estimates, I hired The Painting Edge to paint my interior walls in May 2021 and had them come back and paint my new doors/trim in October 2022. They also repaired drywall and painted my guest bathroom after another contractor had done an upgrade to it. His drywaller, Ray, works miracles and his painters, Shane, Mike, and Jordan are fantastic! All of them are great guys and they are the only contractors I felt comfortable enough with to leave them alone in my house when I had to be out. They may cost a little more depending on who else you get bids from, but the stress-free experience working with them and the amazing results are definitely worth it!
