ACCENT ON PAINTING

He did a terrible job, left drip marks down the walls, did not paint all the trim like he was contracted to do.  It was a terrible job.  We ended up in small claims court to get our money back and won the case.  We still have not received our money because he filed bankruptcy.  I was told, after he finished painting that he was retiring from painting.  In court he said this company was defunct, so I am surprised I am being asked for a review.  I would avoid having work done by this company.

My experience with them was awful.  Basically, the man who owns the company did not do what he was contracted to do.  We ended up with a half-finished job.  He tripped down our wall, painted all over our filling and we ended up getting our money back.  I would never use them again.

it was great. he did all of the work himself. while the more expensive options would have done a more thorough painting of the cabinets, this was perfect for what i needed and the cabinets look great. i couldnt believe the quality for the price. other estimates were double what i paid. he cleaned up afterwards and even did a small unrelated  odd job for me at no charge. great experience.

He does excellent work overall from start to finish.  This includes his interior and exterior painting and work as a "handyman".

I  have recommended him to several people. He is very reliable and reasonable. He is also a very honest man. I am very pleased with him.

He does very good work at a resonable price.

John Reece from Accent on Painting is completely unprofessional. After I took a day off of work so he could come and paint the inside of my house, I noticed that several things need to be fixed. He did not use painters tape to tape off the doors/trim or light fixture. We found paint on the trim as well as on the light fixture and wooden staircase. Also, we found several spots that did not have a first coat of paint as well as the spots that are peeling. He did not remove painting hooks, and chose to paint over them. He also did not sand the ceiling where he applied mud to a crack before painting. I mentioned that I wanted everything painted white, so he used flat ceiling paint. I am deeply upset that we hired him. He took our money and ruined our walls. I have several pictures if you would like to see his 'workmanship' and now we'll have to pay more money just to fix what he did. I spent months trying to get him to come back out and finish, but only have gotten emails from "Emma" saying that he is under medical care of a out of state doctor and will contact me when he gets back. After months of being avoided, I had my friend call asking if he was available, and he said he is “working on construction right now and would love to take an interior paint job.” At 8 ½ months pregnant and a 14 month old at home, I was struggling with going to small claims court over this. Instead, once I contacted ServiceMagic, the site I found him on, he eventually paid me back half($200 of $400). He even tried to send me an email telling me that I actually owed him money but that he was willing to ‘forgive’ that. He has stolen from me and my family. I did not have $200 to throw away on someone I trusted.
