He did a very good job. That was excellent. He showed up on time and worked accordingly with the quote provided. Overall, he has an A.
Upon calling Mr. Shaw he immediately told me he would come back and wash up all the screens and windows and replace the AC coils with a new cover, which he did. I also requested that he touch up a few paint spots the sprayer didn't entirely cover and he had no problems completing all of my requests. I was very satisfied over all! I completely trust Mr. Shaw to be a man of his word and will not hesitate to use Shaw painting again!
I was not disappointed. I had a friend that agreed to meet with him and let him in the house for estimate and work. He was prompt and helpful and paid close attention to what I wanted. He was quick with my estimate and thou he was a little higher that others, his kindness and honesty lead me choose him.
He knew I had a quick deadline and he was there right away. The stairs were a tasking but he was able to make them look seamless. He cleaned everything up in the house when he was done and you could not tell that there had been a major project done there only two days before move in.
I can not stress how wonderful his work and professional his work and his attitude were. He will be my first contact for any work in the future.
They started with the ceilings. However, they applied the paint to a small section of the ceiling as a test area and asked me to check to make sure if the colour was to my liking before proceeding because the shade colour seemed slightly darker than the shad I had selected and purchased for the ceilings. When John and I looked again at the PPG paint sample in their colour catalogue and compared it to the paint on the ceiling, we both concluded that the shade on the wall was somewhat a darker shade that the colour sample. It may have been possilbe that the person mixing the paint at the store might have made an error. John wanted to make sure I would be completely satisfied with the result and promptly offered to return the paint and get specifically what was ordered. Even though the shade was slightly darker, I actually liked it and instructed John to use the paint and continue painting the ceilings.
John's on site work crew consisted of his son, John Jr., and his helper, Valentin. Both guys are extremely hard workers and very professional, friendly, courteous, and trustworthy young men. John would drop by at least once everyday to see how they were doing and touch base with me to give me an update. He also instructed his guys in front of me that they should ask me if they have any questions or doubts about how I want something done to make sure I am happy with it. I had given John Jr. one of the garage door openers for the unit so they could let themselves in and out the unit. Every day before they left they made sure the unit was locked and secure and let me know they were leaving.
If memory serves, the guys finished the work Friday evening or they make have done so on Saturday morning. I have to say I was surprised to see how quickly just two guys were able to paint the entire area so quiclkly and professionally. They did everything free had and did not have to tape anything. Now that is the sign of an excellent painter in my books.
When they were finished, John Shaw came over to review the completed job and then contacted me to review the work product with him in detail to make sure I was completely satisfied. I checked out every room in detail and was very pleased with the work. I even noticed that the guys even cleaned all the electrical cover plates and heating vents before they replaced them and installed a new one in the Master Bath because it had rusted somewhat because of humidity. The work site was also left very clean.
After I reviewed the completed work with John, I met with him privately to square up with him and pay him for the job. I issued him a check for $4,175.00, and he sincerely thanked me for giving him the work and told me to call him if I had questions or concerns later on and to call him in the future if he could help me.
In short, John Shaw's work is excellent and he is a very honest and trustworthy man. I highly recommend him to anyone.
He also did not use the type of window that I asked him to use. This one is a cheaper variety than our other windows.
He installed the lights and did a good job but there is joint compound on each light that I am having trouble cleaning off. These lights are the rubbed bronze and the joint compound is very visible. In addition they left old drywall and trash on the breakfast bar.
Overall, his work was good. The window is in well. It's just a lower quality window and the mess was astounding.
