Affordable Weaver is truly affordable. Their cost estimate was 40% less than the other 2 quotes. The team of 4 arrived promptly at 7:30 am and finished the job in 1 day.

"I contacted Nick on January 30th via email around 9pm.   He called me by Noon the next day, which was a Sunday.  I explained everything I was looking to have done and asked him to come and give me an estimate.  We made plans for 6pm on Tuesday, 2/2/16.  He called before the appointment to confirm my address and to ensure I was still expecting him.  He arrived on time.  First thing he did was hand me his card, so that was sure I was letting the right person in my home.  I showed him around, introduced him to my brother, who lives with me, and to all my various pets - 3 dogs and 2 cats.  He was friendly to all the animals even though they were a bit of a bother as we walked the house.  

As we walked room to room, I explained all I would like to have done and Nick took notes.  I explained imperfections and how I knew that if I had enough money walls should be replaced, but at this time I could only afford to have painting done.  I showed him rooms that the previous owners painted over wallpaper - again should be removed and walls redone from scratch, but I did not have money for that.  Nick did not press me about getting it done.  He understood, that I was looking for a cosmetic update and that I just wanted the place repainted as it was last done in 2007.  Nick asked the right questions about woodwork and finishes.  He explained the difference a finish could have on a color.  He advised me on which finish to use in which room, which would be best with the pets, etc.  

He shared paint color boards for Benjamin Moore.  He told me which store he uses to supply his work.  He did a final walk thru.  I asked him questions like who does the work - him or does he hire teams; I asked about how to handle the animals when he was here; I asked him what I needed to do to prepare.  He had answers for everything.  He understood my concerns about the pets.  He left telling me he'd be in touch with an estimate.  I did not give Nick any idea of what I was willing to pay before he left.

The following day, 2/3, Nick called me and gave me an estimate.  He went over everything we discussed the day before in full detail.  His price came in under what I had in mind.  I was extremely pleased.  I even considered adding on the bathroom, since I was under budget.  He said he'd look when he came and we could talk more then.  He instructed me to go find my colors, he suggested getting test quarts so I was sure I liked the colors.  

I went to the Ben Moore store he suggested on 2/6.  They were awesome. They totally matched the colors I wanted.  They took their time with me as I picked for each room.  One match is 100% spot on to the throw pillow I brought in for comparison.  Once the colors were tested and picked, I called Nick and gave him the numbers on 2/8.   He said he'd be in touch the following week to tell me exactly what day he could start.

On 2/15, Nick called and said he'd be at my house at 7am on Wednesday morning.  He would pick up all the paint before hand.  We discussed how he expected payment - half up front; half upon completion.  He asked that I take pictures from the walls.  And that he'd move any heavy stuff.

Wednesday morning 2/17 came.  Nick and his associates were out front at 6:50am, but did not come in until 7am, which I really appreciated as I needed to round up and lock up the pets.  He came in, introduced his team- Nick and two others.  They went about putting down drop clothes and removing switch plates.  Nick reviewed the colors with me and where each was going.  At that time, since the estimate was below budget, I asked Nick if he'd look at the bathroom.  I showed him how the ceiling needed to be scraped and painted and that parts of the walls needed some TLC.  He asked if I wanted him to add it on to the job.  I was so excited that he could immediately do this.  I said yes and picked the color from his chart.  He said he'd get it that afternoon and bring it with him the next day.

My brother stayed at the house with the pets while I went to work and Nick painted.  When I came home that day, the entire house had a first coat.  The living room and hallway was done.  The ceilings were done.  The border in the kitchen removed, the spackling done, the house was left in good shape.  Nick said he'd be back the next morning at 7am to finish up.  And same as before, he waited until 7am exactly to come in.

On day 2, there was only Nick and one other person.  Nick said they'd finish that day.  I worked from home, tucked away in my bedroom with the cats.  My brother in his room with the dogs.  At 11am, Nick asked me to take a look as see if there was anything I was not happy with.  I asked that the kitchen get one more coat.  They were covering a dark wall with a light paint and I swore I still saw the old green.  He did that without hesitation.  Everything else looked great.  They went about folding up the drop clothes, cleaning any specks they found, sweeping up, etc.  Just afternoon, I gave Nick the second half due and he was off!   Easiest service transaction ever!

The house looks great!  So bright and so fresh.  It all feels new again.  I'd recommend Nick to anyone who needs a painter.  If I had more rooms, I'd surely bring him back!

"Rudy and his partner did an excellent job painting my master bathroom and my daughter's bedroom for a very reasonable price. He did a very professional job and was a pleasure to do business with and I would certainly hire him again."

"I was given Larry’s name by a family friend to quote re-doing my living room and bedroom ceiling. Larry was quick to get back to my phone call as well as begin the work. His quote was fair, better than two others I had received! Larry worked quickly and did an amazing job. He kept me informed throughout the entire job and was so easy to talk to. After meeting him, I trusted him to be in my home alone, using a lock box, which allowed for him to come on his schedule without me having to be there. Larry did a wonderful job, going above and beyond to touch up some imperfections on my walls as well. I would 100% recommend Larry to anyone looking for drywall/Sheetrock work done! Thanks again Larry!"

"Although he ran late for our initial appointment, when I met Luis to get an estimate for the work involved I was impressed by his thoroughness, product knowledge and his detailed note taking about the job. Previous painters who had come by had been abrupt and lacked the detailed focus. I had made up a pretty detailed questionnaire so I could thoroughly assess each painters input about the job. When I asked Luis about the nail pops showing in some ceiling areas he assured me that they would fix them with 2 screws on either side removing the offending nail. Right answer. I was impressed. He also reviewed the steps taken in prep--plastic over the cabinets, paper covering floors, patching, sanding, priming, taping, chaulking etc. Because I had wallpaper glue issues from a previously poorly done paint job he assured me walls would be sanded, patched and then primed with an oil based primer to seal in the glue. That is what paint experts had recommended. Again I was impressed. The written up estimate detailing the job arrived a few days later via email. We communicated and revised the proposal back and forth until I was pleased that it incorporated all the details of the job including paint brands to be used. Although English is not Luis' first language we communicated fairly well via phone and email. He assured me that at least someone on the job would be able to communicate as well as he. I liked Luis, was impressed by the high ratings on Angie's List and found him to be more respectful and customer satisfaction oriented than other painters I had spoken to for an estimate. He also gave me the best price to do the job, particularly with the Angie's List discount. So I decided to go with his firm of which he is the principal owner. Scheduling the job went pretty smoothly working to accommodate my desire to get the job done in October before the holidays. On the first day two painters arrived more than 2.5 hours later than I had been told to expect them. Only one spoke a reasonable amount of English, the other very little. Both were very nice guys, for the most part diligent workers, with no attitude, but communication would end up being a real problem. They spent the first day prepping the kitchen area and other two rooms. Next 3 days they arrived on time around 9am and worked until about 6pm. They didn't take long lunches or breaks. The job was taking longer than Luis had calculated based on the prep required. My husband and I at the end of each day found issues in their prep--mostly careless patching, sanding or lack of. Their lack of attention to detail was disappointing, but they kept a positive attitude. During the job I received follow-up phone calls and emails from Luis asking for feedback. Twice a "supervisor" stopped by, but I didn't see much value. He first showed up midafternoon on the second day. His English was not good, so my communication with him was poor. I couldn't understand what he was saying to the painters, but it did not seem to me that he was insuring that a protocol of company standards or that the details of our written estimate were being followed. During the last couple days of the job, the painter who was doing the outside painting job spent alot of time on his handheld cell phone apparently having personal conversations while propped up on a ladder. I also discovered that he wasn't waiting the 4 hours between coats required by the manufacturer and had to point it out to him and Luis. Luis had assured me during the estimate that they followed the manufacturer reco. (I had previously experienced this problem with another painter resulting in a poor job.) Although I was home working, I had decided to be mostly hands-off on the job relying on the detailed written proposal to insure that the job was done according to specifications. The only thing I checked on was that they were using the right paint, finish and color for each element to be painted. Big mistake. When the job was done and they had left, the next day I found the remaining paint cans in the garage where I'd asked them to leave them. I discovered that they had used a latex primer rather than the specified oil-based primer on the walls. Then it hit me, I had never heard the power drill going to screw down the areas where there had been nail pops. I couldn't believe it. I was very upset. Took me several days to reach out to Luis with a detailed email expressing my grievances. Luis had told me the day they finished not to pay them, but to take a day or two to check out the work. I was glad I had that leverage. We found some spots bleeding through, a wall area missing it's second coat of paint, places where patches were not sanded enough or primed before painting so their finish was different calling attention to the patch, areas on the kitchen walls were there was still alligatored patches from previous wallpaper glue that was suppose to have been removed, and areas of trim where the paint was reflecting lack of a second coat of paint. I told Luis I wanted him to come by and see the work for himself and discuss the possible remedies. About a week later Luis met with me to review the job. He was very apologetic. For 3 weeks we lived with the main floor of our house in disarray. He brought the same painters with him and they worked through the remedies that day. He offered to completely redo the kitchen with the oil-based primer, but I agreed that fixing the areas pointed out and extending my warranty would suffice. I couldn't go another couple of days. I think Luis needs to provide better training and supervision of his workers. The workers should have gone over the details of the signed proposal with me when they arrived to make it clear they understood the requirements of the job. I also think they need to improve their English and communication skills."
