The painter called me to schedule the work for Nov. 23. He called that morning to ask if he could come the day after instead. Not a big deal, but he didn't explain a reason for the delay so it seemed a little unprofessional. He came the next day and did the work in about 2 hours. Afterwards, I came by to inspect the work. Everything that was pressure washed looked great. The area that needed painting due to peeling paint looked good, although there was a small area near there that they hadn't done. I pointed it out and he painted it. I was disappointed that the total price was $385 ($135+$100+150). I thought it would be less because they didn't paint the new siding boards (I had already painted them). When I looked at the original contract, it did say that the painting would be $100 (for peeling boards and new boards together). I guess I should have asked about the price after I painted the new boards myself, as the painting job would then be smaller. Overall I was happy with the quality of the work. The only negative was that when I put away the paint can they used, I noticed that it was not hammered closed all the way. If I hadn't noticed that, the paint could have dried out. I would probably use Certa Pro again, but ask more explicit questions about the price quotes.

Painting reviews from real Angi homeowners in Hillsborough, NJ
Insisted to use a different paint brand than I wanted. I was willing to buy the paint; but nice that they provided paint - overestimate the amount though.
Awful. I asked that the mullions be spray painted. Nope; it was hand painted and peeled as soon as I opened a window. The cutting around doors was terrible; semi gloss was used to touch up areas that were painted in eggshell. Paint had to be scraped off woodwork. Paint around French door...

Did a very good job. Showed up late morning to avoid traffic but this did not effect quality of the job. I would recommend Vivid Painting for any paint job you may have.

"Overall, I had a great experience working with Precision Painting Plus. From a professional standpoint they were excellent — great communication, quick response time, and thorough follow-up. The painting itself looks very good, but I did notice a few spots that could have been cleaner, such as some paint on the white moldings, a drip mark, and areas around the trim that weren’t as sharp as I’d hoped. Nothing major, but worth mentioning. All in all, I would recommend them and would use them again, just with a little more attention to detail next time."

"Not well. In general, the painting was sloppy. Globs of paint were found around the trim work. Spackle was not sanded full smooth and then painted over, leaving the walls not looking smooth. Paint was splash on the cabinets, door handles and hardware, and floors. They left debris in every room that they worked in that we had to clean. They also put chalk between the ceiling and cabinets in the kitchen when it wasn't asked for and when it looked terrible, the owner removed it and scraped the ceiling significantly, then had to be asked to fix his mess. In the end, that area looked worse than it did before the job. This is not a company that respects your house and puts care into their work to make your house better."

FAQs for painting projects in Hillsborough, NJ
You should paint your home exterior every five to 10 years, on average. Climate and surroundings can affect how well paint holds up. Wood siding will likely need a fresh coat of paint every three to seven years. Paint on brick tends to last about eight to 17 years, on average.
Professional painters charge $20 to $50 per hour, on average. Hourly rate cost factors include the complexity of the paint job, the type of paint, the height of the walls and ceiling, and the type of prep and repairs needed. For example, removing wallpaper costs an additional $3 per square foot because it can be very time consuming and labor intensive. Your location will also impact the hour rate.
To estimate the cost to paint interior walls, multiply the square footage by the average price range to paint interior walls, which is $2 to $6 per square foot. For example, a 12-by-12-foot room with 8-foot tall walls is 384 square feet, meaning that the cost to paint the room will range from $768 to $2,304. Painting the ceiling and any trim will add to the overall cost, as will any repairs.
To calculate the square footage of a home exterior, painters multiply the length of the wall by the height of the wall to be painted. Then they add the total square footage for all of the walls to be painted. To calculate the price, they multiply the total square footage by their cost per square foot to prep and paint. Additional costs may factor in such as repairs, additional trim, and walls higher than the first story.
The cost to paint the exterior of a house ranges from $1,900 to $4,500 or about $1.50 to $4 per square foot, depending on the size, height, and complexity of the home layout. Other cost factors include your location, the type of siding (e.g., wood, aluminum, brick, stucco, etc.), and the kind of paint (e.g. oil-based, latex, acrylic, etc.). Painting the trim a different color or painting intricately designed trim can also increase the cost.
