Fine Painting Inc

THEY TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO EVEN SHOW UP TO DO THE WORK. THEY ONLY DID PART OF THE FRONT THRESHOLD AND HAD TO COME BACK TO FINISH THE JOB, AND WANTED TO ARGUE ABOUT WHAT THE THRESHOLD ACTUALLY WAS. THE RAILINGS WERE NOT PAINTED UNDERNEATH THE RAILS, AND AGAIN I HAD TO ARGUE WITH THE MAN, BECAUSE HE SAID THE UNDERSIDE THEY USUALLY DON'T PAINT. THEY DID COME BACK OUT AND PAINT THE UNDERSIDE. FOR THE MONEY I THOUGHT THE CALIBER OF THE WORK WAS POOR.

OUR INITIAL PHONE CALL WAS IMMEDIATELY RESPONDED TO. THE ESTIMATE WAS EFFICIENT AND FAIR. ALL WORK, INCLUDING REPLACING THE DRYWALL CUTOUT, RE-TEXTURING THE CEILING AND PAINTING THE ENTIRE CEILING WAS EXCELLENT AND COMPLETED IN ONE DAY. YOU CANNOT EVEN TELL THAT PART OF THE CEILING WAS ONCE CUT OUT. THE ESTIMATOR EVEN GAVE US HINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE SOME DRYWALL DEFECTS IN OUR FAMILY ROOM.

EXCELLENT JOB WITH CARE SPENT ON CLEAN UP. EVEN PAINTED DOORS DESPITE NOT BEING IN ESTIMATE.

THE ESTIMATE WAS EQUIVALENT TO TWO OTHER ESTIMATES I RECEIVED. THE PAINTERS WERE VERY COURTEOUS AND DID A VERY PROFESSIONAL JOB.

I AM VERY UNHAPPY! WHEN WE MET, I LET THEM KNOW I WANTED A WASHABLE PAINT. HE LET US KNOW HE RECOMMENDS SHERWIN WILLIAMS. HE RECOMMENDED SATINS IN THE BATHROOMS, FLATS IN THE OTHER ROOMS. HE ASSURED ME IT WOULD BE FINE. WHEN THEY WERE WRAPPING UP, MY HUSBAND DROPPED A BOTTLE OF WATER AND IT SPLASHED ON THE WALL. THE SPOT NEVER DISAPPEARED. WE CALLED THEM AND WE SHOWED HIM THE PROBLEM. THEY TOUCHED UP THE AREAS THAT WERE SPOTTED. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A CURING PROBLEM. I HAD THEM BRING OUT A SHERWIN WILLIAMS REPRESENTATIVE. WE MADE APPOINTMENTS FOR THEM TO COME AND CHECK AFTER 2 WEEKS. HE DID NOT SHOW UP. THE PAINT STILL WAS STAINING. MR FINE STOPPED RETURNING OUR PHONE CALLS. WE RECEIVED A LIEN FROM MR FINE. WE RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT HE IS FORECLOSING ON OUR HOME! WE HAVE BEEN NEGOTIATING ALL ALONG TO FIX THE PROBLEM IN GOOD FAITH. I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD PAY EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR $1,000 UNTIL IT IS RESOLVED. HE DID NOT HONOR OUR VERBAL AGREEMENT. THEY STAINED THE CARPET.

THEIR WORK IS WONDERFUL AND I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO EVERYONE.

THE PAINTING CREW WAS VERY FAST AND CLEANED UP AFTER THEMSELVES. THE ACTUAL COST WAS EVEN LESS THAN THEIR ESTIMATE!. WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO OTHERS.

THEY DID NOT POWER WASH THE SIDING PROPERLY THE FIRST TIME. WE CALLED THEM AND THEY CAME OUT AND DID A GOOD JOB THE SECOND TIME. WE WERE PLEASED WITH THE FINISHED PRODUCT.

I CALLED HIM THIS FEBRUARY, ABOUT PEELING PAINT AND GOT NO FOLLOW UP. MY NEW WOOD WAS NOT PRIMED. I WAS TOLD THERE IS A BUILT IN PRIMER IN THE SHERWIN WILLIAMS PAINT. I CALLED SHERWIN WILLIAMS AND THEY AGREED THAT ALL NEW WOOD NEEDS TO BE PRIMED AND THERE IS NO BUILT IN PRIMER IN A100 PAINT, WHICH WAS USED ON MY HOME. THEY TOLD ME "YOUR PAINTER JUST WANTS TO GET DONE FASTER." I CALLED FINE PAINTING, AND LET THEM KNOW ABOUT MY PROBLEM. I HAD SOMEONE COME OUT AND SCRAPE AND TRY TO PRIME THE BOARDS. AFTER HAVING NEW BOARDS AND NEW FIBER CEMENT SIDING ON MY HOUSE AND SPENDING $3,000 ON PAINTING, TO HAVE CORNERS CUT IS NOT APPRECIATED. THEN TO SPEND MORE MONEY HAVING SOMEONE RE-PAINT IS NOT APPRECIATED.

FINE PAINTING DID A GOOD JOB AND WERE VERY FAST. THE ACTUAL COST WAS EVEN LESS THAN THEIR ESTIMATE!. WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO OTHERS.

A VERY DISAPPOINTING CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE OVERALL. THEY WERE FABULOUS IN CONTACT AND FOLLOW UP UNTIL THEY RECEIVED THE JOB, AND MY DEPOSIT. AFTER THAT, IT WAS THE PITS. THEY ADMITTED THAT AND TRIED TO MAKE GOOD ON THIS BY PAYING FOR A PROFESSIONAL WINDOW WASHER TO COME OUT AND CLEAN THE EXTERIOR WINDOWS. HIS COMMUNICATION, OR LACK THERE OF, WAS AS POOR AS THEIRS. FINALLY, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET THEM TO COMPLETE SOME TOUCH UP WORK, I GAVE UP.

ONLY COMPANY THAT RESPONDED PROMPTLY AND CLEANED UP WELL TOO.

EASY TO WORK WITH, COMMUNICATION BETWEEN PAINTERS AND OWNERS NEEDS IMPROVEMENT.

I WAITED THREE WEEKS FOR THE ESTIMATE AND DID NOT HERE ANYTHING FROM THE COMPANY. I CALLED THEM MYSELF AND WAS TOLD I WOULD GET AN ESTIMATE RIGHT AWAY. I WAITED ANOTHER WEEK AND CALLED THEM AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THEY LOST THE NUMBERS. I TOLD THEM TO FORGET ABOUT THE WORK.

THE WORK LOOKS GOOD, THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THEY HAD A LOT OF JOBS GOING ON AT ONCE AND IT TOOK A WHILE TO GET THE LAST BIT OF THE WORK DONE. ALSO, WE ALWAYS HAD DIFFERENT PEOPLE COMING OUT. THEIR OFFICE MANAGER WAS VERY NICE AND THEY WERE QUITE PROFESSIONAL.

HE DID NOT EMAIL QUOTE. WE CALLED TO EXPLAIN THAT WE DID NOT GET THE QUOTE (PERHAPS HE WROTE THE EMAIL ADDRESS DOWN INCORRECTLY) WE HAD TO LEAVE A MESSAGE ON A MACHINE. HE DID NOT RETURN OUR CALL AND DID NOT EMAIL A QUOTE. IF HE DIDN'T WANT THE JOB, ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS SAY I AM NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR JOB. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE HE WAS HIGHLY RATED ON ANGIE'S LIST BY SEVERAL PEOPLE.

DAVE WAS VERY PLEASANT TO WORK WITH. VERY EFFICIENT AND MADE THE EXPERIENCE GO VERY SMOOTHLY.

THEY DID NOT SHOW UP AT ALL ON THE ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED DATE. THEY CAME THE FOLLOWING DAY.

RETURNED TO DO MORE TOUCH-UP WORK THAN THE MINIMUM NECESSARY; QUITE PLEASED WITH THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICE.

I HAD NOT RECEIVED THE ESTIMATE 2 WEEKS LATER AND CALLED HIM. HE THANKED ME FOR 'WORKING WITH HIM' AND SAID HE WOULD FAX IT TO ME. I NEVER RECEIVED IT.

LEFT A MESSAGE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS AGO, HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THEM.

THE PAINTERS DID A GREAT JOB, ONCE THE PERSON WHO DID THE ESTIMATE COMMUNICATED AN ORIGINAL AGREEMENT REGARDING PREP WORK/MINOR CARPENTRY THAT WAS TO BE DONE 'BEFORE' PAINTING ACTUALLY BEGAN. OCCASIONAL REMINDERS ABOUT AGREEMENTS WERE NEEDED TO KEEP PAINTERS ON TRACK.

CALLED AND LEFT A MESSAGE TO SET UP APPOINTMENT. THEY CALLED THE NEXT DAY AND SAID THEY WOULD COME OUT, BUT NEVER HAVE. I WAS AT HOME WAITING ALL EVENING BUT NO ONE SHOWED UP OR CALLED.

THE ESTIMATE WAS PROMPT AND THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL. THE PRICE WAS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF 3 ESTIMATES. MR. FINE IS VERY GOOD AT PRESENTING HIS COMPANY. THEY WERE RIGHT ON TIME. THEY FINISHED IN 3 DAYS. THEY WERE VERY CLEAN AND DIDN'T MAKE A MESS. THE WORK WAS BEAUTIFUL. ONE PROBLEM WAS THAT WE ASKED THEM TO INSTALL THE TOWEL RACKS AND THE TOILET PAPER DISPENSER. WHEN THEY INSTALLED THE DISPENSER IT WAS TOO TIGHT. SOMEONE IS COMING TO FIX THAT. THEY ALSO SEND SOMEONE OUT AT THE END OF THE JOB TO MAKE SURE THAT THE JOB IS DONE RIGHT. THEY ARE VERY POLITE AND CONSIDERATE. THEY HELP TO MOVE THINGS AROUND. THOSE ARE THE KIND OF PEOPLE YOU WANT TO WORK WITH.
