The experience could not have gone better. We ended up with a beautiful color combination. And the job was fantastic. Why? It was the way they approached their work. They take a great deal pride and ownership in what they do. They treat your home like it was their own. They were meticulous beyond expectation. They worked with us through many subtle color combinations to find just the right one. They worked very closely with Sherwin Williams with whom they have a strong contractor-vendor relationship, even having them visit the property on several occasions to ensure they were using the right product for each challenge they faced on a house with many surfaces that had not been painted in 20 years. They were meticulous ensuring that the foundation was free of all flaws prior to painting.
I would not say they were cheap, nor would I say they were expensive. I got what I paid for and that was a beautiful paint job that I suspect will last many, many years and in which I can take pride. Don’t hesitate. I have never worked with a contractor who was that concerned about how much we liked their work.
We purchased this property in March 2005, and could not wait to replace the hideous blue color that was on everything--exterior and interior. We called Color Schemes right after the snow melted, and asked them to get to work ASAP. They did.
They were helpful on every aspect of the project--from initial color choices and matching, to paint selection, to the actual steam cleaning and painting. All their work was meticulous.
One of the many reasons we prefer them over other contractors is they do all their work themselves, and take full responsibility for everything they do. They do not sub out anything. They also do most of their painting work with brushes, and hand-lay all the stain. No spray painting or rollers with them. They also insist on using only the highest quality paints and stains.
Their post-painting clean up was meticulous. There were no telltale signs that they had ever been there--that is except for the stunning house color we continue to enjoy.
The end result of all their professional work is that, six years later, our home still looks great! There's been no peeling or cracking, and only minor discoloration from exposure to ultraviolet radiation that is in plentiful supply here on the mountaintop--no fault of theirs.
Since that initial exterior project, we've made them our #1 call for anything having to do with painting--including all of our interiors, two new wood fences, two new decks, and a spa/hot tub installation. It's hard for us to imagine calling anyone else. They are not and quot;bargainand quot; contractors, and they simply do not know how to, and won't, do sloppy work. They also work well with other contractors. We created a new sunroom from the old garage, installing new doors and windows. Color Schemes coordinated perfectly with them.
All in all, when you hear the old saying, and quot;You get what you pay for,and quot; nothing could apply more appropriately than to this very professional painting contractor.
Finish very even, smooth and consistent coloration.
Cleaned up carefully after the job was finished.
There were a few delays along the way, but this was no fault of the contractor, but rather weather-related challenges they had to face over which they have no control.
I called this company to perform these services because I have had consistently excellent service from them in the past.
They have performed for me first-rate exterior paining, interior painting, trim painting and deck cleaning and staining. They created a smooth and even surface on all of these jobs. I hope I don't ever have to bother with any other paint contractor. I would surely be disappointed by their service, as I have been quite spoiled by the very professional approach Color Schemes takes with all of its work, with all of its customers.
On a side note: as I was searching here for this company, I ran across a previous post, calling this company and quot;just another Pocono contractorand quot;, which baffles me why anyone would say this about Color Schemes, as my experience with them (and apparently everyone else here who has used them) has been totally the opposite.
It saddens me to see a person on here trying to use Angie's List to post false facts in an attempt to damage the reputation of a legitimate first-rate contractor--who, just to set the record straight, is definitely NOT and quot;just another Pocono contractor.and quot; We all know it's true that there are a lot of and quot;just another Pocono contractorsand quot; out there, and this can cause a lot of frustration to us homeowners in this area. But why take out one's personal frustrations about the general lack of professionalism of contractors in this area, by criticizing one of the handful of them who are really good?
Good contractors like Color Schemes need to be encouraged, not slammed unfairly because someone is frustrated in general.
This kind of slamming does not do anyone any good here at Angie's List, and in fact it only detracts unnecessarily (and untruthfully) other persons who are just like this poster, always in search of good and reliable contractors, and who have a great deal of trouble finding one.
