"Cabinet Cures did a great job from start to finish. Joe and John were very meticulous in doing all the pre-measuring all the way through the construction, including the very meticulous finish work, which I need to give a shout out to Joe who is an excellent finish carpenter. Valerie was very informative when she came and gave us an estimate and was very responsive with any questions we had. The owner Pierre is very hands-on which was a very nice touch from a customer experience aspect. we had a couple tricky areas in the kitchen and due to their knowledge and experience, and they’re fine attention to detail every aspect of of the job far exceeded our expectations. we would highly recommend them and would like to thank all the crew for doing such a great job for us"

"I was thrilled that Leo from Crystal Painting could get his painters to do the work almost right away, which was what I needed. I never met them, but my tenants said they were very professional and cleaned up well after themselves. The only reason I didn't give an Excellent rating was because I did think the price was a little high. But since I didn't have much time before the re-inspection, I did not get estimates, just hired the first company I hired. So it's possible that this was a good price and in that case, I would rate excellent!"

"This is the second time we hired Ortolani & Sons. Always excellent customer service and a job well done. Thank you."

"Go with Target. I've used several painters, and I have never had the excellent level of quoting and detailed Statement of Work, customer service responsiveness, crew professionalism, quality of prep work and painting, and ability to deliver on my timeline. I am not easily impressed, but Andy, Gabriella, and team knocked it over the Green Monster!"

"This is truly a company with integrity, the kind that's quite rare. Their work ethic and attention to detail are impressive. They're punctual, professional, and courteous. But let me tell you this: having Fernando and his team at our home felt like having a friend or a family member who's happy and willing to help with whatever hurdle comes up: lines up a roofer to take a look at a newly discovered leak, takes time to build a custom shim for a light fixture that wasn't flush with the ceiling, and even proactively, and without being prompted quietly fixes a misaligned door. It would have been understandable for a contractor to say "sorry, not my problem," but this is a company that goes above and beyond, and never cuts corners to rush to another job. I look forward to working with them again."

"MS Painting was extremely fast, efficient, and fairly priced for the quality they provide. Within 24 hours of hiring them the team was priming our house. We could not be happier with the results and the timeliness of the project and will 100% use them again for any and all painting needs. As an added bonus the team was friendly and communicative throughout the entire process. 10/10 job!"

"I have nothing but great things to say about Erivan and his crew. I think it's important for everyone to know the details of my experience with him to reflect how good he is at what he does as a painter but also how genuine and helpful he is as a person. If you aren't willing to read my long review, here is the short version: Erivan is super responsive, accommodating, and truthful with his quotes. He does an AMAZING job and he is very clean. No dust, no mess and not intrusive in your living space which was impressive for me since I work from home and my office was just down the hall not too far away from the kitchen where they needed to paint. He is one of the few painters you would find to take extra time to cover and seal everything to make sure nothing gets dirty, dusty or stained by paint. Now that that's out of the way, I recommend to take couple of minutes to read what led me to hire Erivan. I needed my kitchen cabinets painted and just like most of you, I started my search by requesting quotes from painters and alike. Erivan was one of the first ones to respond. My initial strategy was to send pictures of my kitchen to people and ask for estimates to speed up the process. I contacted close to 15 people in total and some said they would need to see the kitchen in person and others said they will get back to me within day to give me a quote. Take it from me, NEVER hire anyone who gives you quotes based on pictures. They will either over-shoot their estimate - sometimes because they don't even want to bother with you - or they will start demanding more money in the middle of the job. Always pick from people who come to your house to give estimates. Fast forward few days, I had five people coming over looking at the cabinets including Erivan himself. Erivan examined everything very carefully, asked me what I specifically wanted and explained what he would be doing step by step before giving me a very reasonable and realistic quote. He took the time to explain and train me about the process and his particular choice of products for the job and why it differs from what others may choose to use. Long story short, as much as I liked Erivan and his quote, my wife and I decided to go with some other painter due to some smooth talk and overpromises both my wife and I fell for. He (the other painter, Not Erivan) made us wait three weeks and canceled on us two day before due to "personal" reasons. I have no way of knowing if true or not, but felt like a fool at that point. I contacted Erivan again. He responded almost immediately and said he would help me but needed a day or two to tell me when exactly he can schedule me for. He was in the middle of a job and had other jobs lined up so he wasn't sure if he can even squeeze me in since my residence is more than an hour away from his business. One of the the things that highly impressed me was how responsive he is and he how well he keeps his word. If he says he will call tomorrow, rest assured he certainly will. You won't have to chase him around to get an answer. Just like he promised, he called and told me he had an opening for few days before his next job and I am available first thing the next morning he can do it, Otherwise, it would have to be some other time. I agreed, He showed up at 7:15am the next morning with his worker, and yes, he comes from almost an hour and half away distance. They have done everything the proper way (no cutting corners or rushing through the job) for kitchen cabinet paining including, cleaning with special chemicals, sanding, priming and sanding again, applying stain blockers and few coats of painting. Luckily, the weather cooperated and Erivan was able to use the warm, sunny day to prime and spray the cabinet doors outside in my backyard while his worker took care of the trims and other areas in the kitchen. They both chose to stay until after 7pm that day to make the best out of what the weather offered. They came at 7:15am the next day, put back all the hinges and doors, leveled the cabinets, and even changed my cabinet handles/pulls which I said I wouldn't do. In other words, they even complied my last minute changes that added to their work since he needed to fill up the old holes on the cabinets and make new ones for the new handles my wife really wanted. The cabinets look FANTASTIC. They are nice and smooth and professionally done. He gave me specific instructions what to do and not to do after he left to ensure the cabinets are properly dried and taken care off. They were in and out in matter of two, although very long, days and barely felt their presence through out the process which is especially amazing to me since I work from home and rely on quiet nature of home office space. If the weather didn't cooperate I believe it would probably have been an additional day or two for the job to be completed. Simply put, here is the list of things you should expect from Erivan and his crew: 1) Extremely responsive. His phone doesn't stop all day and he responds to everyone equally without compromising his work time on the job 2) Work ethic is exceptional 3) Honest and genuine 4) Super capable and delivers professional results. He has close to three decades of painting experience 5) Detail oriented and due diligent 6) Very clean 7) Very careful moving stuff around like refrigerators and such and pays attention not to scratch floors 8) He will do exactly what you ask him to do but he will always recommend what's best for you since it makes no difference for him 9) He will treat your space as if it is his and no exaggeration when I say that 10) Respectful and a stand up guy I would not hesitate to hire him again although I wouldn't make him drive that distance if it isn't worth it for him. I took the time to write this long review in order to save anyone time dealing with others. He gets full score from me and I have no doubt you will feel the same if you hire him. See the before and after picture."

"Start to finish, excellent service and value delivered. Crew & team were extremely professional, great communicators, always went the extra step to ensure the project was done exactly as it was requested. We moved into a new office space and originally just wanted some touch-ups, they transformed the space into something we didn't think was possible, all while meeting our tight deadlines. Wouldn't look anywhere else for any future commercial or residential work to be done."

"My home looks like new! Very professional and thorough pressure wash of my home! Looks great!!"

"I have written this review in hopes that it provides Wander with additional advice that he can correct to provide painting services that are acceptable. I put off writing this, but believe that customer reviews are valuable to homeowners looking for services. I was willing to overlook some issues but I have spent so much time touching up the paint job from this company that I feel obligated to provide these comments. The task was to paint the entire house with two coats of paint with two walls of new clapboard requiring one coat primer before the two coats of paint. I gave the job to Multicollor Painting Plus because Wander was the owner and one of the workers, and had three painters working for him. I like the idea of the owner being on site for the entire job; easier to get things changed or fixed before it gets out of hand. His company is listed with 25 years of experience and had many 5 star ratings. Unfortunately, Angi does not verifiy any details of the contractor. In this case Wander purchased the company in early 2020; while the company he purchased had 25 years of experience, he does not. He has no experience managing a company. There was no “contract” to sign, only the email he sent listing the services provided. I was OK with that, however, I was surprised to hear he was going to spray paint the house when the email said nothing about that. I realized that spraying saves time but I’m not a big fan and reduced the agreed work to provide two coats on the new wood and only one coat on the rest of the house since the paint surface was in pretty good shape. I also deleted painting the doors and the new trim above the new siding. When he showed up to start painting he had no ladders on his truck, only a step ladder, and only had one other painter. What happened to the three painters that worked for him. Works out they were working at another site and had his ladders. He asked where the nearest Home Depot was located because he intended to by a new ladder and the rest of the supplies needed for the job. Why not purchase his materials before showing up for work? Since he was travelling an hour or so from his house to mine, they were only working a six hour day. Makes no sense. While we were discussing the time difference between brush and spray painting and I made my work reduction offer, I learned that he figured he could paint the house in four or five days. I thought that could be done with four workers, but he only showed up with one employee beside himself. The house is 1800 square foot two story house with a two car garage and he figured he could paint it in four days at six hours a day. I asked how he priced the job estimate and said he just picked a number that seemed reasonable. He had no clue. No planning experience at all. I felt sorry for him and wrote six pages of instruction on how to build a cost estimate and provided a blank spreadsheet to go with it. I also provided a spreadsheet that documented the job of painting my house with the number of hours per day, what work they did each day, costs of materials and that he should still have made some profit based on his labor and expenses. In addition, I provided notes I compiled about things that could have been done better. There was no attention to detail, or following the agreed upon work. He was to clean off all surfaces and removed all dirt and mildew. I believe he only used water in the power washer as there was no residue from soap on the ground and the walls in some places are still dirty because they weren’t painted. Caulking – fill all cracks and gaps. Some done but very sloppy. Did not caulk recessed nail heads on new clapboard. Scaping and Sanding – I spent a lot of time going around and scrapping loose paint and sanding areas that were missed and on the weekend I scraped, sanded and caulked one side of the house because I wanted it done correctly and not rushed because it was taking longer than he guessed. Painting. Very sloppy. One issue I had was that he was painting the clapboard and the edge of the trim abutting the siding with the same color. I had made a point of telling him (and the other bidding contractors) that I expected the trim to be blue on all sides and only the clapboard to be tan. Of course they intended to do it the quick way and I had him go around and paint the edge of the trim blue. He made no attempt to remove the downspouts from the walls and just painted around them until I could remove them myself, and did not detach the downspouts from the second story when he was painting there. Typically, painters start at the top and work their way down. However, Wander had one painter working off a step ladder painting a wall, then he would follow him with the longer ladder to paint the top part. Makes no sense as many drips resulted on the lower section. His and his employee(s) skills as painters are questionable. They are not careful painters, they do not pay attention when they are slapping on paint, and are not focused on details such as painting inside the lines, and painting up to the line. Wander made no attempt to review the quality of the work as it was being done. He purchased one 20 foot ladder that was sufficient for much of the house except for the ends of the house which require a 28 foot ladder. Instead of making him go buy one, I let him use my ladder, as well as my 20 foot ladder when he finally brought a third painter. I think Wander can be successful as a painter and suggest he be contacted to provide an estimate. Perhaps a whole house is beyond his present capabilities. But you should be perfectly clear on what your expectations are, have him provide a contract to sign, and hold him to it. There may be some value in contacting with a larger firm that sub-contracts the work to small painting companies, but at least there is likely to be some oversight of how work is completed."
