I have never had a better experience with any home improvement project.
I looked into 3 painters from Angle's List for this project. I didn't choose the cheapest. I chose the best.
I wouldn't hesitate to reccommend this company to anyone who wants a quality performance.
This is by far the worst company I have ever hired to do work on my house. They left the property each night a mess. Ladders up against the house sprayers uncovered and out for anyone to fall over. . They had different people on the job each time , staining my house and it is my guess that only the foreman had experience staining a house. The employees that power washed the house did a terrible job. I have vertical siding and the sprayed from left to right leaving marks in the wood siding that they tried to later fix , but is still visible.
To stain my house, they started using a sprayer, then a brush, then whatever tool they could find to stain my home. It was a comedy of errors. It took a few weeks to complete. They were not finished the last job before they started my job and then went back to many times to finish the other job not working on my house for days. I write this one year later and there are parts of the house that look like it was not stained last year, but maybe a few years ago. Most likely because some parts of the house was not stained using the same techniques as the others. Please , please shop around.
,I was flexible with the start date so they could come when I assumed they had time to complete. I understood that it was a job that was based on the weather and there were days when it rained, But there were lots of hot dry days.
The employees that came to power wash the house obviously had no idea how to do the job. Vertical siding, they went from left to right. You could clearly see where they cleaned the wood and where they missed. Like they were trying yo kill a bee with the power washer.! So when they stained the wood , the clean and unclean wood was not covered by the semi transparent stain. . It still shows. They tried to fix, but it is still obvious. My biggest complaint is that they had one man assigned to my job. A 3 story home. One or two days a helper came, but thiis was done mainly by one man. I assumed they had other jobs that they were trying to complete.
Each day I came home to ladders laid against for days my house, tools left on the ground, , tarps everywhere., pretty messy. No clean up. The only worker - Dan, was a hard worker, coming on Sat and Sunday to try to complete the job . I am not sure why he was not given some help .
I guess I expected that they would be a few more workers on the job and that it would not take about 1-2 weeks and they would do a nice job. On a scale of 1-10 I would give the completed job a 6 . They started on July 22 and finished on Aug 12. I was just glad to have them complete the job and leave.
I would not hire them again.
