They were very quick and neat. They covered my car in the drive with a tarp when they washed and painted, just in case. They were a nice crew who were timely, friendly and neat. They worked quickly. Dave Fine did the quote immediately after my request, and followed up quickly to my clarification questions. They were great to deal with because they were professional, quick and thorough. I would use again and they are highly recommended.
Description of Work: I hired them to prep and paint the outside trim, garage doors, gutters, downspouts, basically anything that had been previously painted. They were also to power wash and remove any moss or mildew on the siding. Then they did prepping which consisted of caulking where needed, sanding, and scraping.

After using this company several times for interior painting, we hired them to paint the exterior of our house. Our plan was to paint the house the same color that it already was - no changes. I relied on Dave Fine to assist in selecting these colors, as I did not have the information. That was a BIG mistake! Even though the color was totally wrong, and there were items that had not been completed, we paid them in full, noting the ''small'' items that needed to be completed on the invoice. Second BIG mistake! Since last November, this company has been ignoring messages and making appointments and then not showing up. Finally, they sent us the most hateful letter, full of lies and very rude language. My husband and I have been in business for over 30 years and have over 100 employees, and have thankfully never had contact with a company like this. They are very SCARY! They are certainly not the company they once were. This is the first negative report I have ever written!

THIS IS CLEARLY A STATEMENT OF CONTRADICTIONS AND UNTRUTHS. IF WE DID SUCH A GREAT JOB ON THE INTERIOR, WHY DID SHE HIRE US TO DO THE EXTERIOR? AS FOR THE QUESTION OF THE COLORS, I PERSONALLY MET WITH THE HUSBAND AND WIFE TO MATCH THE COLORS. SHE PERSONALLY INSPECTED A SAMPLE THAT WAS PUT ON BEFORE THE HOUSE WAS PAINTED. THEIR GUTTERS WERE THREE DIFFERENT COLORS, AS SEVERAL REPAIRS HAD BEEN MADE AT DIFFERENT TIMES, AND I SUGGESTED THAT THEY BE PAINTED FOR A UNIFORM APPEARANCE. WHEN THEY CALLED AND SAID THAT SOME TOUCH-UP WAS NEEDED IN LATE NOVEMBER, WE TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS TOO COLD TO DO ANYTHING AT THAT TIME, AND AGREED TO COME OUT IN THE SPRING. THEY CALLED TWO OR THREE TIMES DURING THE WINTER, BUT WE KEPT TELLING THEM THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WE COULD DO UNTIL WARMER WEATHER. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A WASTE OF TIME FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: THE SO-CALLED TOUCH-UP'S WERE NOT NEEDED, AS THE ISSUES WERE "PAINT COLOR," CAULKING, (WHICH WAS CLEARLY DONE) AND A JAGGED EDGE OF A BOARD THAT THEY THOUGHT WAS NOT CAULKED, BUT WAS CUT CROOKED BY WHOEVER PUT ON THEIR ROOM ADDITION. I HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR THIRTY YEARS, AND WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN OUR SERVICE AND QUALITY. WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER CONFUSED THINKING AND EMOTIONS OF PEOPLE WHO CANNOT BE PLEASED. DAVE FINE

Upon calling this company for this estimate, an appointment was scheduled right away. I liked that they had someone to answer the telephone to schedule appointments. He arrived on time for the estimate. He seemed very knowledgable regarding the jobs that needed to be done. He e-mailed the estimate for the job the next day. We chose another highly rated company to do this job only because their estimate was $900 less.
Description of Work: We received an estimate to paint the exterior of our house and to seal/stain our new deck.

Greg Rayne estimated this job. I wasn't sure what rooms I was going to have them paint, so he did an itemized quote for every room in the house. Greg was very helpful in telling me about certain colors needing primers/extra coats. The job took 1 1/2 days to complete. There was an extra charge for one room that needed 3 coats instead of 2. I was very pleased with the painted walls, but was rather upset to notice a large paint stain on the carpet. The crew thought they had cleaned it up, but I feel I should have been notified. Greg was very apologetic when I called him about it (he was not part of crew). He returned check things out and also corrected a bit of paint on some trim that I had noticed. We were having the carpets steam cleaned that day and Greg offered to pay them if they needed to do anything special to the stain. Unfortunately, the stain still remains after being cleaned twice. I'm satisfied that the effort was made, however & am not asking that anything else be done.
Description of Work: The master bedroom and bath (both with vaulted ceilings), a large basement area (stairway, theater/rec area, & kitchenette), and a bedroom were painted in an empty house. Minor drywall repair was also done as needed prior to painting.

MEMBER WAS A PLEASURE TO WORK FOR. WE DID SPILL SOME PAINT ON THE BASEMENT CARPET. THE GUYS CLEANED IT UP THE BEST THEY COULD AND THOUGHT IT LOOKED GREAT. THE NEXT MORNING YOU COULD STILL SEE THE PAINT SPILL. SHE CALLED ME AND I RUSHED OVER FIRST THING. THE CARPET CLEANERS SHE HIRED TO CLEAN ALL THE CARPET WAS ALREADY THERE. I ASKED HIM TO TAKE CARE OF THE STAIN FOR ME AND TOLD HIM I WOULD PAY THE EXTRA IF ANY. HE REPORTED BACK TO ME LATER THAT DAY AND SAID EVERYTHING LOOKED GREAT. WE ALSO PAINTED A BEDROOM THAT WAS WHITE AND WE PAINTED IT MUSTARD YELLOW. SHE HAD POINTED OUT TO ME THAT WE GOT PAINT ON HER NATURAL WOOD TRIM. I POINTED OUT THAT ALL PAINT ON THE TRIM WASN'T THE YELLOW COLOR BUT THE ORIGINAL OLD WHITE. GOOD THING IT WAS A COLOR CHANGE. ALL IN ALL MEMBER WAS A GREAT CUSTOMER. I WILL BE CONTACTING HER TO SEE IF I CAN DO ANYTHING FURTHER FOR THE CARPET.

The job was broken up in what I called Phase I & Phase II, Phase one was the downstairs, stairwell stairs and landing (we have an open concept house, with vaulted ceilings, so big space). Phase II was the upstairs. Both Phases took 3 days to complete, with a team of 3 men. Their work is exceptional, always kept areas as neat & clean as possible, careful to cover everything when spraying the ceilings. Would definitely use them again !
Description of Work: Interior of house was painted. Work included walls, doors, window jambs, baseboards and ceilings. Their was also some drywall repair performed.

I called and scheduled with a lady for someone to come look at the exterior of my house, and give me an estimate. No one ever came, and I never received the email the lady promised with an estimate. About 3 weeks after my original call, I called and left a message on their answering machine, and no one called me back. Finally about two weeks later, I called, spoke with the owner that answered the phone, and told him of my experience. I gave him my information, and he said someone would be out to give me an estimate. No one ever came, and I have not heard back from this company. I have decided to try someone else on Angies list as it is now 3 months later, and my house still needs painted.

While I have read many favorable comments about this company, I question the quality of their work if they can't keep appointments or follow up on why they couldn't.
Description of Work: Called on 3/30 and left message regarding request for quote on some interior painting. Caroline returned my call the following day and set up appointment for Saturday, 4/1 with either David or Greg to look at requested work and provide estimate. No one came at the scheduled time or call to say they couldn't make the appointment. As of today, have still had no call.

You can tell your members it was an A+ overall job for price and everything else mentioned above. I would recommend them to anyone and I believe that is why they have so many pluses regarding their workmanship. Would I use them again? Certainly would. I hope you will put this in their file as a very deserving company.
Description of Work: The Fine Painting Company just finished doing the interior of our house after doing the outside painting in the fall. It was an exceptional job: the workers were neat especially Mike and Jack who were the lead painters. The job was done quickly, neatly, professionally, courteously, and Jack came back this morning for a touch up.

Very professional in the entire quote process. I can tell they did quality work. Problem was their price was right at double of the contractor who I went with. I could not justify the price difference after reviewing Angie's List. Had him quote at the end of July 2005 and the work was done in August of 2005. Just getting to the report now. I know it is important to give feed back.
Description of Work: Entire repaint of the exterior of a two story house except the brick and the window frames. Quote was to paint and clean dirty steel siding, alum. gutters, vinyl shutters, and prefinished doors two new different colors.

As usual, they were neat and thorough and cleaned up all of their work areas every day. Bravo! The crew arrived at the time we requested (not too early) and worked quietly -- no loud radios or hollering, which we have experienced with another painters crew in the past. Dave himself is wonderfully helpful about color scheme and types of paint for our humid, shady lot and frame home.
Description of Work: The crew painted the exterior of our home, attached garage and barn. Despite the need to re place rotten window sills on 3 of our large casement windows, they completed all the work within a week.
