Speed Pro Painting Co

This was part of a major re-decorating process. We had a lot of new oak installed in the house that needed to be stained and finished - about 10 doors and door frames, the stairway bannister and rail, shelves, posts and molding throughout the public areas of the first floor. We also had the flooring replaced with tile and hardwood. We contacted SpeedPro to paint the great room, kitchen, tv room, foyer, guest bathroom, entrance hall. and upstairs hall. The great room, entrance hall and foyer have high ceilings - varying from 11 to 20 feet. Both the painters and the flooring contractor preferred to go last, fearing that the other contractor would damage their work. In order to allow the carpenter to install the base and shoe molding, we had the flooring installed first, then the molding, then the painters. Tara has a very professional air, and seemed a little insulted when we asked basic questions. My wife is a very meticulous ex-professional painter, so she had a lot of questions. We stopped asking question because it appeared that we were being over-cautious. We were very happy that Tara was able to reschedule our work from mid-December to the first week of December. That gave us more time to get the house back together for Christmas. Tara showed up with a crew of three and they worked quietly, diligently and efficiently. They always arrived on time and got straight to work. They removed socket covers from the wall and patched a lot of popped nails, nicks, and a hole from the electrician running wires. They don't use masking tape and used minimal drop cloths. Another job came up and they hustled to finish in three days. After they finished, we found that they had been good, but not perfect. There was a fair amount of spatter on the new hardwood and tile floors, stain and/or varnish on the new brass door handles, and a couple of stain marks on wall, There was also paint and stain splash marks by the laundry tub from cleaning brushes. I removed the spatter from the floors before Tara came out and did her best to remedy these problems, she even painted parts of the laundry room. Some things did not totally clean, such as the brass door handles. We also had some damage to the new hardwood floor. Moving the refrigerator left gouges in the floor, even though we had provided protective wood mats. Tara refunded $200 to have the floor fixed. We have found a few other problems after Tara's last visit. There were areas where it appears that solvent dulled the finish of the floor. There are drip marks and three hand prints in the finish of the television room floor. We hope they are fixable with some polyuerethane. We have also found paint on some of the ceiling light fixtures. In summary, they worked efficiently and professionally, but before hiring them again we would ask if they offer a higher-priced option with masking, removing door handles, and more thorough use of drop clothes.

Called for quote made an appointment for an estimate They were on time for estimate and sent it a couple of days later my email Their price was good and they communicated well. They answered all my questions I made appointment for interior painting of a 800 square foot house. Walls, ceilings, door, windows and trim There were five color plus white trim They called to tell be when they would arrive to paint. the job lasted a couple of days as planned. They did a good job and cleaned up well. They painted on their own and locked after they left. When to came to pay them when they finished the job and they fixed a few spots I found without caulk. I was satisfied with their work and would hire them again

We just bought a house and needed to repaint several rooms, as well as strip wallpaper and paint a few more. Since we were in the process of moving speed was something of an issue. I requested an estimate one Sunday evening and they were there the next day. Their estimate came in about about a thousand less than the first estimate we had (from a non-AL painter) and they had the fastest estimate for completion by far (see above). Things went great. Even with the extremely short notice everything got done and they were packing up just as our moving truck rolled in, perfect timing. We've already got tentative plans to call them back to touch some things once we're done moving in furniture and have stopped scraping walls by accident.

Tara and team were awesome!! They worked diligently, took extra care to ensure the necessary mess was contained, and cleaned up EVERYTHING...even made sure we did a walk through together before leaving to ensure I was completely satisfied. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend them...they will be doing any future work I need!!

The quote: I got a quick response including a consultation by Tara. We were able to pick a start date that worked for both. The job: the job went well over 3 days, as quoted. It started on a Thu and ended on a Monday. The painting team arrived punctually each day at the appointed time and worked efficiently. At the end of each day, they put away their tools and left the house reasonable clean - a little dust is unavoidable, I suppose. Overall it was a good experience. I will consider Speed Pro if I have another painting requirement. A couple of things I learned: - They will remove all the wall fixtures (switch covers, hand towel hooks, etc), paint, and re-install them. They even paint the switch cover plates. - They will move all the furniture away from walls and cover them with plastic sheet while painting to keep them clean. However, you will have to move all the furniture back.

Tara was very responsive to my inquiry and we were able to match schedules for her site visit. Her quote came in very quickly after her home visit. We were able to readily find a mutual agreeable time for the work to be done to coincide with floor refinishing. Tara and her crew arrived on time, worked very hard and were extremely competent, well mannered and productive. They finished the job on schedule and cleaned up so well you would never have known they had been there. The finished panting is lovely. Due to a miscommunication on my behalf painting of a fireplace was not completed. With just an email, a crew member was here the next day and the error was rectified at no cost to me. I would definitely use this company again and would recommend them to anyone who wants a painting bid well, work done on time with no mess, and your repainted home looking lovely. Please note Tara is a hands-on owner and works with her crew. She is very concerned that the job be done well and to the customer's satisfaction.

Went very well. Tara is responsive to emails and the work was quality.

Arrived on time for the quote. Arrived on time for the work, painted and patched exactly as we discussed. Final bill matched my quote to the penny. Excellent service, I will use them again.

The experience was decent. The wallpaper removal was fine, but the patching required more finishing than expected. The wallpaper removal took much longer than anticipated, and was barely completed in the time quoted. I think they underestimated the job - but we felt the price didn't.

The owner responded quickly and professionally to our request for a price to stain our deck. Once a price was established, she directed us to the local paint story to select the stain. Shortly after the stain was selected, a worker arrived and, in the course of one warm, dry day, applied two coats of stain on the walking surface of the deck and one coat on the upright parts. He was professional, responsive and competent.

Tara's professionalism, responsiveness and customer service skills are exemplary. She took the time to ensure we were satisfied with the job. Tara also helped me select paint colors. With 7 new rooms that needed to be painted, Tara's skill in color selection and coordination were indispensible. I would and WILL recommend Speed Pro to anyone - I had intial concerns because Tara's bid was below 4 other bids I received, but now understand that her team's efficiency and professionalism allow them to complete jobs effectively and efficiently, ensuring that their prices remain very competitive. Thanks Tara, Brad & your team for a job well done!

After getting several quotes from different sources, I found Speed Pro on Angie's list and contacted them via e-mail. Tara was quick to respond and we began a dialog on what services I was interested in and a directional cost to perform those services. She was extremely knowlegeable and after our discussion, I was very interested in having her come out to the house to confirm the job and pricing that she had quoted during our conversation. She showed up on-time, looked at the job and wrote up the quote. The cost was exactly as she described during our previous communications and after being able to meet her in person, I was looking forward to having Speed Pro do the work We agreed on a time for the work to begin and an approximate completion date. The crew started and completed as expected. The crew was very professional and did a fantastic job. There were never any issues and Tara's communication was great. I look forward to using Speed Pro again and would defintely recommend them to anyone looking for a professional painting company.

I don't know why everybody gave "A" to this company, but our experience at best was "D" with them. Poor job done in kitchen by owner herself. You can see white patches even after 2 coats ! third one costs extra. We just went with them because of excellent rating on Angie's, but now I think I should have shop around. They have dripped paint on carpet as well as on floor in our newly constructed house...

I could not be happier with the job done by Speed Pro Paint. I got two estimates (both Angie's list companies) before selecting Speed Pro. The first company quoted me 3 days/4 painters/$1500.00. Tara quoted me one day, two painters, $750.00. There was such a difference, I was actually concerned! I almost went with the more expensive quote because, well, if it seems to good to be true... Fortunately I used my head and went with Speed Pro. It took two painters 1 day to finish the job. About $750 including paint to do my living room, foyer, stairs and upstairs hallway (including paint!) It looks beautiful! They were professional, polite; came on time, and did a perfect job. I could not be happier. I will never paint another room again! Speed Pro has gained a customer for life. Thank you!

Initially, I had the interior of my house painted by an amateur. The result was very shoddy work...it had to be redone. I called Tara and she responded promptly to set up an estimate. When she arrived, she was a great help in picking out some bright colors that would update my new home. I'm not exactly an interior designer so it was great to have a confident opinion on my side. I ended up doing an accent wall that looks great in my living room. The work was done in a punctual manner. I had three rooms done (two coats of paint) and my ceilings in a flat white. It took less than six hours. When I came home, everything was clean and in order. Most of all, the painting looked great. I will definitely call Tara again in the future, the first time!

Speed Pro Painting came to our house and gave us an estimate promptly after I contacted them via e-mail. The owner came out for the estimate and even helped me decide on the color by bringing in lots of color charts. After this I promptly received an estimate and sent in my deposit to hold the date we agreed on. Communicating with this company via e-mail is an excellent experience. E-mails are answered right away - no waiting. The crew arrived on time on the day we agreed on and began painting our living room, dining "L", hallway - ceilings and moldings. They also closed off an old clothes chute in the hallway and dry walled over it (you cannot even tell it was there). It took the two workers a full day to complete the work, and they were very polite and worked hard. The paint job was excellent and we are very pleased. We are planning to have them back again in a couple months to paint two bedrooms. Thanks Speed Pro for a job well done!

Tara and her team at Speed Pro painting were extremely professional. Tara responded to my inquiry the next day and we scheduled a date for an estimate. Her estimate was accurate. The crew that came to do the painting were on time and professional. The area that needed patching was done very well and the lines were straight. The crew cleaned up and only trace amounts of dust were left on the floor. They were very thorough and exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend Speed Pro to anyone and will hire them again for my next painting job!

Everything went great! They provided the best quote and the best service.

I called several places to get an estimate for power washing the twenty year old deck on my house that I recently bought. I don?t know much about decks, nor this deck?s history in particular, but it looked stained and as if the finish had long been worn off. I got a couple quotes in the $400 range, and for that price I was prepared to just borrow my friend?s van and rent a power washer from Home Depot and attempt it myself. But, I later called Speed Pro and (owner?) Tara asked me to email her the dimensions and a photo, since it was hard for me to meet her just for an estimate appointment. I told her in advance that the other quotes I had obtained were beyond my current budget. She gave me a quote of $250, and that seemed within my range. When Speed Pro arrived they realized what they apparently couldn?t discern from my photo, which was that the mildew, etc., staining was very severe. They could have just power washed my wood as best they could, and moved on to the next contract. But, instead, they took it upon themselves to drive to Home Depot, buy chemicals, and then do treatments before power washing. What perhaps could have been presumed to be a ninety minute job took them the entire afternoon. The deck looks very good. Of course it doesn?t look ?just like new,? but it probably looks as good as it possibly can. I?m a little surprised that Speed Pro took so much pride in doing things as well as if it was the deck on their very own home. And, I?m even more surprised that they did all that unforecasted extra work while still holding their original quote. I don?t have a history of experience with decks, but I do now know enough that when I have to get this kind of work done in the future, the first (if not only) quote I?m going to get will be from Speed Pro.

They did a very good job. Cleanup was not the best (left tape and fixings undone), but they were punctual and the painting was fine, except for a few blank spots. Still, we will be considering them again very soon for another condo we own .

I plan on hiring this company again. Everything was superior in every way.

Provided reasonable quote. Came out and completed job as promised. Tara and crew did a great job. We are very happy with results.

Everything was done in a professional and timely manner. We found Tara and her employees to be very congenial and understanding.

Contacted the company by email to get a quote. Received an email from Tara saying she would be out the next week to provide a quote.....never heard from her again.

I unfortunately had a very bad experience using Speed-Pro Painting. I feel Tara gave me a fair price for painting the outside of my windows, which had been rebuilt by a window company. The color match to the existing color of the house was decent; and the paint, I believe, was Sherwin-Williams Duration, which I was happy with. Sadly, I found the rest of the job lacking. The windows were all painted closed. I mean, completely stuck closed! Had to be forced open. No casing painted, including half-painted windowsills. When I e-mailed Tara, a worker was sent out the next day to correct the problem. But, not all the windows were corrected, so there was a third trip out. The windows were opened, so the casing could be given a slap of paint. That's it, no prep or removing the thick ridge of paint that "glued" the windows shut. In Tara's own words she believes in "100 percent Customer Satisfaction", but not necessarily on the first time out. I can't be the only one on the planet who expects a company to provide its best service on the first visit. This was amateur work. She said she was getting out of exterior work, because "it was too much trouble,"and apologized for the inconvenience.That says it all.
