It's a good service. I absolutely would use them again, in fact, I recommended them to my son. There were two guys. They were sort of divided out, but there were always two. They were very professional and very ethical.

We made a good choice going with JCP How'd it go? It went well, very well! Only 2 days to complete the whole project. Our project was quite the undertaking. Larry and his crew worked hard to ensure the project was done in a timely manner as well as meeting our needs. Everyone we worked with at JCP was very prompt and helpful. Larry was very professional from the start. His original quote was higher than others we had received, but his experience and attitude had us going with JCP for our painting needs. He worked very well with us and our budget. The only reason for a 4 on Quality, is due to the wallpaper removal being an issue. Some areas still show texture from where the wallpaper glue was not fully removed and painted over. Larry did offer to have the crew come back and put a skim coat over in efforts to get rid of the texture. We were ok with how it looked, as it was difficult to see. He did guarantee that there not be any chipping or peeling. This was comforting knowing he backed his product! Many thanks to Larry and his hardworking JCP crew.

I was a little skeptical based ont he price being so much less. The other quotes I received from larger companies were for $5,500 to $5,800 including the paint. I bought the paint for our house (which was $1,050) and the all in cost ended up being $3,550 for our home. Our home is approximately 4,200 Sq ft and two stories. They had a crew of five people and took them three full days to do everything. They did an excellent job of taping and removing the tape so there was no evidence of any painting taking place around the house. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I also would recommend getting a bid from another company just so they can show you how much less they charge for the same service. I cannot think of anything more they could have done to do the job right the fist time.

They showed up on time and promptly did all the work as promised and at the cost stated up front. the porch repairs were included and performed at the price stated. They even included some extra porch spindles without extra cost.

"[member names removed] were a pleasure to work with. They were very clear on what they wanted done and the colors they had selected, so it made it easy to provide them with the results they were looking for. They were receptive and friendly to the painters working at their home, and that always makes the guys want to do their very best for the homeowners. I wish them well as they enjoy their beautiful home."

The short version: I ended up with a decent paint job on my house, but getting there was a giant, disappointing hassle.
After reading the other reviews on here, and meeting Larry when he came out to bid on the project, I felt like I was in good hands. We took a couple other bids, and this one seemed like a good value for the money. Unfortunately, the crew that ended up actually doing the work was sloppy, disrepectful of my property, and had very poor attention to detail. When the job started, I was introduced to Carlos, who would be running the job. Unfortunately, he ended up hardly ever being present, and the crew members left to do the work clearly weren't interested in doing the job right. They also didn't speak English, so I had almost no ability to communicate with them.
When scraping/power-washing the old paint off, the crew didn't use any kind of dropcloth to collect the falling paint chips. (Since my house is over 90 years old, one should generally assume it's got lead-based paint on it, right? Per my research, this appears to be a fairly serious EPA violation.) These paint chips were then stepped on and pulverized during the rest of the job, so I ended up with thousands of tiny chips EVERYWHERE. They're in the grass. They're in the multiple mulched areas I have next to the house. They're on my driveway and my patio. Even after several attempts by both JCP and myself to clean them up, they're still everywhere. Not only is this unsightly, but if our old paint was indeed lead-based, it's unsafe not only to the groundwater, but to our 17-month-old son. We still have to check every time we come inside to make sure we're not tracking in tiny paint chips he'll end up eating. Completely unacceptable.
In addition, one of the times I was out trying to communicate with the crew, I watched one of them wash out a paint bucket and throw the wastewater directly into what had been, until that moment, my vegetable garden. They got paint on my patio furniture. They oversprayed and got paint on my stone foundation in a couple spots. All in all, the crew clearly had an utter lack of respect for my property.
Our house was previously white all over; we went to blue with white trim. The crew didn't seem to pay any attention to what was supposed to be and quot;trim,and quot; and just sprayed nearly everything blue. I had to point out multiple times that certain things should be trimmed white. These weren't special/strange requests, but areas that are what I would consider and quot;standardand quot; - you could have looked at any other house on my street as a reference point. Larry ended up doing several of these areas himself at the end, as we ept finding and quot;trimand quot; areas painted blue after the crew was and quot;finished.and quot;
I feel Like Larry made the effort to help fix the problems his crew had caused, and ended up doing most of the touch-up work himself. There was some carpentry-related work that became part of this project, about which we'd had some miscommunication during the bid process, and I feel that he probably charged me less than he could have because of the issues I'd had with the crew.
I'd probably rate the paint job a B. I expect some impefections on a house this age, but I feel like there are ares that could have been given more attention and finishing detail.
Larry's efforts to correct his crew's mistakes helped, but the metaphorical hole they'd dug just wasn't something he could climb out of. I can't give the whole experience anything other than an F. Judging by the other reviews on here, it appears my experience is not the norm, and I hope actions have been taken to address the issues that occurred during my painting job. That said, I obviously couldn't recommend their services, based on my experience.

"I take no comfort in the fact that the grades received on this review are an anomaly of what we normally receive. We were unable to enthusiastically satisfy the homeowner, and for that I am truly remorseful. The crew leader, Carlos, has good communication skills and is generally very responsive and helpful during the process. Unfortunately, he had some personal issues that caused him to continually leave the job site. While the other members of the crew are good painters, they need the leadership and supervision that Carlos normally provides. What we ended up with is good production painters with undeveloped decision making skills being left to their own devices. I have spoken with Carlos about my expectations that he remain on the job at all times. I have no intention of repeating the unfortunate issues we had here and am very sorry that the member had to experience this."

They had a good price, they were on time. He fixed something that need to be fixed. It may or may not have been their mistake but he fixed it anyway. Great cleanup, fast, I would recommend them to anybody.
Response from JOHNSON COUNTY PAINTING LLC
"The member had us do some wood repairs and paint her home. The house turned out very nice, but she noticed a dent in her stucco that she didn't recall seeing before. She was very gracious while pointing it out without being accusatory. It was a simple fix and the experience had been positive, so we patched the hole and touched up the paint. I was very appreciative of the member selecting Johnson County Painting to do her home."

I found Johnson County Painting on Angie's list. I made appointments for bids with several companies listed with Angie, most of whom were very professional and well qualified. I chose Johnson County Painting based on their professionalism, great customer service, price and the personal attention of the owner, Mr. Ammerman, during the bid process.
The job was started on the day and time promised. The crew worked quickly, neatly and thoroughly. They were extremely polite, friendly, good-natured and seemed to enjoy working their craft. They were happy to accommodate special requests and did a good job cleaning up.
The goal of this company seems to be to satisfy the customer and to complete the job to the last detail. Mr. Ammerman never made me feel like the job was being rushed. He saw to every request no matter how minor. My house looks great and I feel like I got the best deal in town. At least one neighbor intends to use this company based on the quality of work she has seen.
If you're in the market for a house painting job, be sure to call this company!

"Member selected some very vibrant colors for his house and an accent that really made the house pop. He had an itemized list of repairs and modifications he wanted done, and used it to ensure we performed everything as promised. Working with Member was an enjoyable experience and now he has a beautiful home to enjoy for years to come. Thank you Member!"

I was very pleased with Larry (owner of Company). He was very responsive to questions I had, gave me several recent customers that I called who all gave very good reviews. His price was by far the lowest of the three bids I received. His team did the whole house in two days, cleaned up well, and I was very pleased with the paint job on the house (We have a 2 story colonial). Larry is very easy to work with. I also noticed he had an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. I would gladly recommend he and his company to anyone that needs their house painted. A great value for what he charged me.

Everything went very well. Larry was prompt and his crew was efficient and polite. Part way through the first day, we realized our poor decision in a paint color, and when we asked to change it, Larry was patient and understanding. The crew cleaned up well, and there was minimal plant trampling. The new paint looks fantastic, and we are so happy we went from ugliest to cutest house on the block in a day and a half.

Excellent experience, Larry for Johnson County Painting was professional at all times and kept me informed when the work would be completed. The work was finished to a high standard and afterwards Larry walked me round the house to show all of the work that was completed.

Larry can and looked over the job, asking questions as to exactly what I wanted done with the house. He gave me an excellent price for the work. Larry got all of the materials once I had decided on the paint colors and once he and his team arrived (exactly when they told me they would) and got busy, they completed the job quickly and efficiently. I was very impressed by the quality of work and the manner in which it was completed. I have had other painters before and felt that they had done a good job, but Johnson county Painting was much better than the others! i will definitely use them again

Larry provided a cost estimate that was within our expectations for the job. Larry also had great communication throughout the process, letting us know his work schedule and returning calls promptly. The crew worked quickly and Larry and the crew came back to spend as much time as required to address all touch-ups as requested. Overall, we were happy with the work and would use Johnson County Painting again.

The job went very well. We used them because the quote was right and in the ballpark. They agreed to do what we wanted which was putting two coats on. The fellow seemed knowledgeable about what he was doing and I felt very good about putting him to work. I would use them again.

The crew came out and was able to promptly replace and repair the problem areas at each end of the house and the area above our front porch. We had issues trying to obtain the correct color paint from the contractors who originally flipped the house, so there was a potential issue with matching the color. Once the job was completed, Larry called me later that day to ask us what we thought of the job and was aware the pigment was off. We were able to get the color pigment afterwards and I planned on painting it myself since our original estimate/job had been completed. We met and reviewed the work together at my home to give him payment for the work done. During this meeting I asked him how much would he charge to re-paint the off colored paint on the porch ceiling. We agreed to a price and he performed the work himself. The only negative thing I have to comment about the overall experience was that the workman who did the first round of painting on the porch neglected to pay as much attention to minimizing the paint spatter as Larry when he did the work himself.

I have referred them to a couple of friends. I worked with Larry, the owner. They did a great job and came out when they were supposed to. We had a slight issue with something they missed and they came right out the next day and fixed it. They were great to work with. They have been back out to give us bids for some other work.

We contacted Larry to paint exterior of our house and replace some lap siding. We also had some scheduling requests and he was able to accomadate our specific requests. We're more than satisfied. Our house looks brand new and his crew was very efficient and had the whole house painted in 2.5 days. Would gladly recommend him.

They did the job and then came back by about a week later and noticed the deck could use another coat. They called me to schedule another appointment to put another coat on the deck which I thought was very professional. I was pleased with their work.

This is the second time we have used Johnson Co. Painting with great results. Ron answers or returns calls promptly and provided an accurate estimate. His crew was punctual, reliable, and respectful of our property. They cleaned up their equipment every evening and left no trash. Ron came daily to check on his crew and check with me for any comments or requests. It was a real pleasure to work with such a professional, cordial business.
