Fine Painting Inc

THEY ARE VERY NEAT PAINTERS AND CLEANED UP WELL.

VERY DETAIL-HELPFUL WITH PAINT SELECTION. JOB WAS WORTH EVERY DOLLAR.

JEFF AND JENNIFER, 2 FOLKS ON DAVE FINE'S CREW WERE VERY PERSONABLE, VERY DETAILED, AND GREAT TO WORK WITH. THEY TOOK GREAT CARE IN REPAINTING THE OUTSIDE OF OUR HOUSE, REGLAZING THE WINDOWS, AND DID SOME MINOR REPAIRS TO THE OVERHANGS. THE ONLY SUGGESTION FOR IMPROVEMENT I CAN OFFER TO DAVE IS COMMUNICATION. DAVE WAS GREAT ABOUT COMMUNICATING WITH ME ON OBTAINING A QUOTE AND DELIVERING THE QUOTE. JEFF & JENN WERE GREAT ABOUT LETTING ME KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON WHILE PERFORMING THEIR WORK. HOWEVER, THE OFFICE STAFF DID NOT COMMUNICATE WITH ME AT ALL. WHEN I CALLED TO SCHEDULE THE JOB, MY CALL WAS TAKEN BY SOMEONE IN THE OFFICE. I DID NOT RECEIVE A CALL BACK LETTING ME KNOW WHEN IT WAS SCHEDULED. APPROX 2 WEEKS LATER, JEFF & JENN ARRIVED TO PERFORM THE WORK. I AM GRATEFUL THEY WERE ABLE TO PERFORM THE WORK, BUT NOT KNOWING I WAS ''ON THE BOOKS'' WAS SOMEWHAT FRUSTRATING.

THE FIRM WAS WILLING TO WORK WITH US WHEN OUR PROJECT RAN INTO SNAGS. EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION AMONG MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES NEEDS WORK, AS DOES THE FIRM'S ABILITY TO SUPPLY NECESSARY EQUIPMENT TO LINE PERSONNEL. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WORKERS WERE UNCLEAR AS TO THEIR JOB OBJECTIVES. IN ONE INSTANCE, MATERIALS LEFT FOR A WORKER WERE NOT SUFFICIENT TO COMPLETE THE JOB. ALSO, FINE DIDN'T SUPPLY ADEQUATE LIGHTING; WE HAD TO SUPPLY A DROP LIGHT FOR THEM. ONE WORKER DIDN'T WEAR HIS GLASSES AND COULDN'T READ THE CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS. THIS LACK OF GLASSES PROBABLY ALSO CONTRIBUTED TO SUBSTANDARD DRYWALL WORK BY THIS PERSON, WHICH LATER HAD TO BE REPAIRED AND REPAINTED AT NO EXTRA COST. ALTHOUGH CONTRACTED TO PAINT ENTIRE KITCHEN, WORKERS LEFT AREAS THEY ANTICIPATED TO BE COVERED BY NEW CABINETS UNPAINTED, NECESSITATING RETURN WORK. WE FIND ONE MUST CLOSELY MONITOR THEIR WORK AND SPEAK UP WHEN NOT SATISFIED.

DAVE AND HIS CREW WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH. WE RECEIVED AN ACCURATE AND COMPLETE ESTIMATE OF THE WORK TO BE PERFORMED AND DAVE WAS AGREEABLE TO USE THE PAINT MANUFACTURED OF MY CHOICE. DONNIE AND THE REST OF THE WORK CREW, WAS VERY COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL. THEY WERE THERE EVERY MORNING AT A REASONABLE TIME AND WORKED THROUGH THE END OF THE DAY, JUST BREAKING FOR LUNCH. THEY DID A GREAT PROFESSIONAL JOB AND CLEANED UP VERY NICELY. VERY EASY TO WORK WITH. I WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND THEM. AND I RECEIVED A DISCOUNT ON LABOR BECAUSE I WAS AN ANGIE'S LIST MEMBER.

I RECEIVED AN ESTIMATE ON 9/19/05 FROM FINE PAINTING FOR A SMALL COMMERCIAL EXTERIOR PAINTING JOB, WHICH INCLUDED SOME REPAIRS. I STRESSED TO MR. RAYNE AND MR. FINE THAT THE JOB NEEDED TO BE DONE THIS YEAR. BOTH MEN ASSURED ME THAT THE COMPANY COULD SCHEDULE THE WORK BEFORE THE END OF OCTOBER. HOWEVER, I HAD TO MAKE SEVERAL PHONE CALLS TO THE COMPANY TO TRY AND SCHEDULE THE JOB. I WAS AGAIN ASSURED BY MR. RAYNE THE JOB WOULD BE COMPLETED AND IT WAS SCHEDULED FOR THE LAST WEEK IN OCTOBER. I DIDN'T HIRE ANOTHER CONTRACTOR, AS I DEPENDED ON FINE PAINTING TO DO THE JOB BEFORE COLD WEATHER. THEY NEVER SHOWED, CALLED OR GAVE AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THEY DIDN'T DO THIS JOB. THIS HAS CAUSED MY COMPANY INCONVENIENCE AND FRUSTRATION. I WOULD NOT CONSIDER HIRING THIS COMPANY. VERY DISAPPOINTING.

ON TIME EVERYDAY. GARY THE CREW LEADER WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AS WELL AS OTHER MEMBERS OF THE TEAM. WORKED VERY WELL WITH ME AS I HAD FLOORING GOING DOWN TOWARDS THE END OF THE JOB. CAME BACK AND FINISHED AFTER THE FLOORING WAS IN. PRICE WAS VERY HIGH, BUT THE JOB THEY DID WAS WELL WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY. I WILL USE THEM AGAIN TO FINISH THE REST OF THE HOUSE IN 2006.

GOOD EXPERIENCE. FINE PAINTING INFORMED ME THAT THEY HIRE SUBS FOR THE OUTSIDE WORK. THE CREW THEY SUPPLIED WERE NICE, CLEANED UP END OF EVERYDAY. THE FRONT DOOR WAS NOT PAINTED CORRECTLY, BUT GREG FROM FINE CAME OUT AND AGREED, AND REPAINTED TO SATISFACTION. THEY COULD IMPROVE QUOTING PROCEDURE AND INVOICING. I HIRED THEM FOR THE INSIDE WORK AS WELL. HIGHER PRICE THAN MOST, BUT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR WITH RESPECT TO WORK ETHIC AND QUALITY.

AT THE TIME I DO NOT THINK THAT THERE WAS ENOUGH PEOPLE ON THE JOB BECAUSE THEY WERE SO BUSY. HOWEVER, THE ONE GENTLEMEN WHO CAME EVERYDAY, KEVIN, WAS EXCELLENT.

MOST OF THE WORK WAS DONE BY KEVIN AND RYAN WHO WERE VERY CONSCIENTIOUS OF THEIR WORK. SOME OF THE OTHER PAINTERS WERE NOT AS NEAT, BUT KEVIN ALWAYS CLEANED UP THEIR GOOFS. I WAS DISAPPOINTED WHEN THE OFFICE MGR. (AFTER DISCUSSIONS ON THE STAIN I WANTED AND WHERE TO GET IT) HAD THEM GET ANOTHER STAIN WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. I CAUGHT THE MISTAKE AND MADE CORRECTIONS BEFORE THE STAINING STARTED.

KEVIN AND RYAN DID ALL OF THE CLEANING AND MOST OF THE STAINING. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB - THE DECK CAME OUT LOOKING BETTER THAN I HAD IMAGINED. I AM IMPRESSED WITH THE CABOT DECK STAIN (WHICH I HAD RESEARCHED AND SPECIFIED FOR THE JOB) AND NOW WANT TO SEE IF IT LASTS AS LONG AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. THE PAINTERS DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF BRUSHING IT IN.

MISSED ESTIMATE, WASTED 1 HOUR OF MY MORNING.

THE GUYS THAT ARRIVED TO DO THE WORK WERE GREAT. PERSONABLE, PROFESSIONAL, AND FAST. THEY DID A GREAT JOB AND CLEANED EVERYTHING UP AND MOVED FURNITURE BACK INTO PLACE. WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!

VERY QUICK AND PROFESSIONAL. REASONABLE PRICE. WE WENT WITH ANOTHER COMPANY THAT WAS COMPARABLE IN PRICE BUT WAS SLIGHTLY LESS AND COULD START THE JOB SOONER. I WOULD HAVE FELT COMFORTABLE HAVING THEM DO THE JOB.

EXCELLENT. I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE COMPANY EXCEPT THE PRICE. I KNOW THAT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR WITH A JOB LIKE INTERIOR PAINTING, BUT FINE PAINTING WAS STILL DOUBLE THE OTHER BIDS. THEY WERE PROMPT IN RETURNING MY CALLS AND GAVE ME A LOT OF INFO WHEN THEY CAME OUT TO DO THE ESTIMATE. THE ONLY REASON I DIDN'T HIRE THEM WAS PRICE--I HAD ANOTHER PAINTER WHOM I LIKED ALSO, WHO WAS WILLING TO GIVE ME A DISCOUNT IF I DELAYED THE WORK UNTIL WINTER TIME WHEN HIS COMPANY WAS LESS BUSY AND HAD MORE DOWN TIME.

FINE PAINTING DID AN EXCELLENT JOB EXCEPT FOR ONE ERROR WHICH THEY RETURNED AND FIXED TOTALLY TO MY SATISFACTION. THEIR CREW WAS CAREFUL, POLITE, AND PROMPT. THOUGH THEY WERE MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OTHERS, THEIR LEVEL OF EXCELLENCE WAS WORTH IT. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE FINISHED PRODUCT.

DAVID FINE, OWNER, CAME TO MY HOUSE. HE WAS PROMPT, PROFESSIONAL, AND VERY HONEST. WE CHANGED THE COLOR OF MY EXTERIOR WOOD SIDING AND IT LOOKS GREAT. THE JOB WAS DONE VERY PROFESSIONALLY. IT WAS DONE ON A WEEKEND WHILE I WAS OUT OF TOWN. THERE WAS NO MESS OR SPILLAGE ANYWHERE IN SIGHT. I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH HIS WORK. COMPARED TO OTHER QUOTES HE WAS FAIR ON HIS PRICE

ASKED FOR A QUOTE. GENTLEMAN CAME OUT TO GIVE ME A QUOTE. SENT QUOTE VIA E-MAIL AND NEVER FOLLOWED UP. NO SALES ATTEMPT WAS MADE AT ALL. QUOTE GIVEN WAS ALMOST TWICE THE PRICE OF 4 OTHER COMPANIES I RECEIVED QUOTES FROM.

THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. THEY WERE PUNCTUAL, NEAT AND POLITE. WE WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN.

DID SPRAY WORK INSTEAD OF BRUSH WORK. SPRAYED SHUT THE WINDOWS. MR. FINE IS A GENTLEMAN THOUGH, AND HE TOOK CARE OF EVERYTHING. CAN'T ASK FOR A BETTER GUARANTEE.

DAVID FINE WAS VERY RESPONSIVE TO GET A PROPOSAL TO US. VERY PROFESSIONAL, SAID WHAT HE WAS GOING TO DO AND WHEN HE WAS GOING TO DO IT, AND MET EACH ONE OF HIS SELF PROPOSED TIMELINES. UNFORTUNATELY WE GOT A LITTLE BIT OF A LOWER PRICE, AND MAYBE A LITTLE LESSER QUALITY. SO BASED ON MY BRIEF EXPERIENCE WITH MR. FINE, I WOULD SAY HIS PRICE IS WORTH IT.

JOB 1: THEY DID A GREAT JOB. THEY MOVED THE FURNITURE AND PAINTING. THEY ARE VERY METICULOUS. JOB 2: I HAVE USED THE ABOVE COMPANY TWICE. FIRST TIME $1200. PRICE IS GOOD, WORK IS EXCELLENT, I WILL USE THEM AGAIN. HONEST PEOPLE.

THEY WORKED ME INTO THEIR SCHEDULE AND WERE REALLY FAST.

WE AGREED ON A PRICE, THEN THE CREW CAME OUT THAT DAY AND BEGAN PRESSURE WASHING THE HOUSE. THEY WORKED STEADILY EXCEPT FOR A RAINY DAY AND COMPLETED THE ENTIRE JOB WITHIN A WEEK. THEY CLEANED UP AFTER THEMSELVES AND WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL IN THEIR BEHAVIOR. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. EVEN MY HUSBAND, WHO IS A PERFECTIONIST, COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG!

THE CRACK IN THE CEILING WOULDN'T HOLD THE "MUD". AN INSPECTION TOLD A 2X4(?) HAD TO BE PUT IN- WHICH THE PAINTERS DID. THEY COVERED ALL FURNITURE AND THE FLOORS SO NO PAINT GOT ON ANYTHING. THEY CLEANED UP THEIR MESS. I AM VERY IMPRESSED WITH THIS COMPANY.
