"In the process of scheduling in November 2016, provider had a family emergency. Clearly, being flexible was the right thing to do, so it was fine. Provider sent emails out a couple times through January 2017 updating customers on situation and assuring us service would be completed, but not saying when. Then communication stopped. I made two attempts to contact them in February and March, but received no response. Service was finally performed in late April 2017, after provider requested coming on their own schedule, and I agreed. Service was performed well, once it finally happened. But between January and April I was left wondering if I'd dropped money into a hole and would never hear from the provider again. Life happens, obviously, I just wish there had been better communication."
"Roy took on a large size job at our house. He and the crew hand skim coated, sanded, primed, sanded, primed and painted almost 80% of our home in 10 days! Roy and his team were professional, and worked late hours to overcome any obstacle they faced. The walls were beautifully painted, and my wife and I could not be happy with the amazing effort, and result in our home. Roy's team sanded and painted, and re-sanded an painted until every wall was perfect. Even areas that my wife and I though looked great were redone if they did not meet Roy's standards. Roy and his crew were incredible to have work for us, provided outstanding customer service, and left us with an end result that was BEAUTIFUL! I cannot recommend Roy and his team enough for any painting and skim coating job you may have. Roy is a stand up guy, does what he says he will do, overcomes any obstacles he meets and leaves the job with a beautiful finished product. Incredible value and quality!"
"Rick did an awesome job. He was extremely professional and on time. His work was top notch and he was very fast. This would have taken me all day! He took his shoes off when he came in which service guys usually don't do and even hung up a couple shelves in our bathroom that had fallen down (only took a few minutes) at no extra charge. I can't speak highly enough of our experience and we will absolutely have them back to do more work for us. A++++ "
