Pickett's painting is a testament to how much you can get away with when you have an affable personality, DON'T BE FOOLED. I hired Ron in March 2023 and red flags flew pretty quickly when he and his helper tracked snow in many times, taped or draped nothing and dragged furniture away from walls rather than carrying. By the end of the job we had paint along carpet in all three room's trim he painted, paint on bedding, broken furniture supports from dragging, paint on outlets and light fixtures (he removed no plate or trim covers), drip marks, missed spots in all rooms, very patchy paint coverage on trim, unpatched holes, a mess left where they rinsed brushes and massive disappointment. Pickett's is a landlord special, don't hire him if you have an ounce of care for your space or value for a dollar.

Ok except for a MAJOR defect that they would not return to fix without weeks of hassle. When they finally fixed the work they were rude and unprofessional.

They were prompt, professional, very speedy (3.5 hrs - 3 men), reasonable and overall did an amazing job. There were just a couple of spots where the wall paint was on the trim but with a modular homes, lines are not straight anyway, so I certainly understand the occassional unevenous. Overall they did an amazing job and I would recommend them and will probably hire them to finish the other 3 unused rooms once we get settled in.

The job was quoted promptly and the work completed was excellent. The job consisted of power washing one day and two coats of paint sprayed on an aluminum sided house the next day.

I called Pickett's Painting to give us a quote on refinishing/painting our outdoor pergola and small concrete pad. Rob Pickett was prompt in his response and came right over to give us the quote on 4/24/16. His quote was extremely reasonable and less than all of the other quotes. He told us he would have the work done by the end of May. He called us on May 15th and asked if he could come on Tuesday and do the work. Rob and his crew arrived promptly on Tuesday morning. They were professional and very courteous. They had the pergola and pad done that day and they did a beautiful job. They exceeded our expectations. They did such a great job - 2 of our neighbors have hired them to paint the exterior of their homes. I would absolutely hire Pickett's Painting for future work and I would recommend them to anyone that wants high quality, professional work done at a very reasonable price.

Pickett's painting did an excellent job. They were prompt. They cleared everything up. They even painted our billco basement doors with the left over paint at no charge. Super Job!

I waited 2 1/2 months for them to do the work, but it was worth the wait. The work was beautifully done and I am very satisfied. Exactly what was written in the estimate and the contract was done. Cleaned up afterward. Completed the work in a timely manner. One of the few companies I would trust in the future.

"It was a pleasure working for you. I'm sorry it took so long to complete - as you can imagine, the short exterior painting season gets booked very early. Thank you for your patience and for being our customer!"

Painted 2 story foyer and ceiling, we supplied the paint, floors were really dirty when they were done. Their cloths had a lot of dirt and debris that was left behind, along with some paint on our hardwood. I swept and washed the floor twice when they were gone.
|Good quality painters and very nice.

"Thank you for your review! Based on your feedback we will be picking up new drops to use for the interior season to prevent this from happening again. Please let me know if there is anything we can do for you going forward! Ron"

Ron was very responsive and easy to work with. He loaned me his color wheel to save me from running around, he kept me posted on the progress and everything was done exactly to specification! It wasn't 'cheap' but you get what you pay for and I woudl definitely use them again.

We've used dozens of contractors in the past few years, and Ron Pickett and his crew are absolutely the best. The estimate was immediate, the price was affordable, the interactions were professional, the work was fast (3 days from beginning to end), and the result is spectacular. The only challenge is getting on the schedule: this talented crew is busy, and if you are thinking of having your house painted you need to contact them well in advance in order to get on their schedule.

RON OR ROB WERE IN TOUCH WITH US REGULARLY TO KEEP US APPRISED OF WHEN THEY WOULD BEGIN THE JOB. THEY ACCOMODATED ALL OF OUR REQUESTS, FOLLOWED UP ON ANY DETAILS WE WISHED TO CHANGE OR MODIFY. PLEASANT, POLITE, EFFICIENT (THEY PAINTED OUR HOUSE IN ONE DAY!) AND BEST OF ALL, REASONABLE!

I had used this group paint another house I own around 1999. I was pleased then and I am pleased now.

I just had some remodeling work done on my kitchen/family room - which are now connected. I got an estimate from Pickett's painting to do just the family room, but once the kitchen was done, it was clear it need to be painted too. They gave me a quote right away (and even gave me a "returning customer" discount!!) and actually stayed right on site to finish the kitchen at the same time as the family room. They were outstanding, friendly, helpful, (great suggestions on paint colors!) and professional. I highly recommend them .... I already have an estimate from them to paint the outside of my house next spring!

They were careful with the furniture and flooring; making sure everything was covered. Neat and excellent painters. There is more painting i have decided to have done. They will be back in the Spring to take care of it for me. Very pleasant to work with.

He responded to everything. He did good work. The product that he used to paint was not good. He had to come back and do some patching and he did that. The patch was not everywhere. It may not be his fault necessarily. He came back the next year. He didn’t charge me for that. We still have some problem. He cleaned up everything. I would use him in the future.
