Get matched with top exterior painters in Fairfax Station, VA

"If you want to work with someone condescending, rude, confrontational, unprofessional, and whose contractors workmanship is probably the worst I have ever encountered in my 30 years of working with contractors, THIS IS YOUR GUY. I can ramble on about the false promises, the horrible workmanship, the constant delays, the lack of communication, the rude and confrontational text messages. I guarantee Mr. Shank will in fact respond to this review and try to flip the script and blame it all on me somehow. He talks very poorly about all his customers well at least the ones he doesn't like. Not sure what that is based on although I do have some idea what is based on. But he never made anything explicit, so I can't make accusations that he is a racist. So I am definitely not saying he is a racist because he didn't do anything racist. But if he was a racist it would explain why he didn't give two poops about doing good work for multiple projects I provided him. I also have multiple properties and was hoping to make Mr. Shank a lifelong contractor. In a nutshell, he has done 2 projects for me at 2 properties. One was installing a threshold for a glass enclosed shower stall. His crappy sub contractor (they are not employees) despite him saying they are employees, did not install any grouting on the threshold. Fast forward 1 year, and mold is popping up all around the threshold. Rather than dealing with this individual, I hired another contractor to fix up his mess. Second job, and my second mistake, I hired him for a full scale home renovation for around 50K. That project was an absolute disaster. He took 3 months to do what he promised to me verbally would be a 3 week job. I don't really want to spend 1 hour writing down all the crap he did wrong. I'll try so sum up the highlights. Ripped out old flooring, promised to make new flooring level after installing new concrete by using lasers. New flooring is totally not level and as bumpy as walking on your local trail. The shoe moldings around the flooring look like a child installed them. I had to argue with him to get him to regrout the bathroom which was in his contract in the first place. I can go on and on. For sure if you are someone that Mr. Shank likes and match his criteria of what he likes, whatever that could be I have no idea definitely not race related. He may do a great job for you and that may explain the great reviews. I myself had a horrible experience with Mr. Shank and his group of sub contractors who just plain do terrible work. Ignore my review or take it seriously, frankly this guy will keep getting business cause he's a great salesman. Even has a LinkedIN profile to show how professional he is. Epic scammer and fraud. Stay away."

"Made appointment for them to come over for an estimate (which they charge for) between 9-12 today. They are a no show. I wasted the whole morning on them. DO NOT recommend."

"Excellent work. Tub to shower conversion and bathroom remodel. Vanity, toilet, tile work was excellent. Also painted after completion. Work was done in a timely manner and it was a pleasure working with William and his team. Would highly recommend for painting and remodeling."

"He and his co-worker did a great job painting outside of house/porch. And wood/trim replacement where necessary. He has very meticulous and took his time. Which I would take any day over rush aka sloppy work. He only replaced the wood as needed and in no way try to sell us/replace more than necessary. He takes pride in his work. And final product shows."

"The entire experience with William and his crew was excellent. They were very quick to come out and give us an estimate. They handled a few last minute additions with ease. The crew was on time, polite, and friendly. The work area was kept clean. The workmanship was excellent. We will definitely look to use them again in the future with a couple more projects that we are thinking about. "

"They did an amazing job. I could not be happier with the paint job that was completed in our home. They took great care of everything, actually took things off the wall like light plates and blind frames, instead of just panting around them. They did two coats to insure none of the previous color bled through. It is perfect. We also had an unexpected water leak right before they started the job and they fixed all of the sheet rocking for us, made it so much easier for us to not have to worry about getting someone else out and you can’t even tell it ever happened!!I highly recommend ABL painting, they show up on time and get the work done. Hire them, you won’t be disappointed. "

"Outstanding work! Our home was in the care of Believing Painting for siding repair and total paint both main color and trim. Wow! He was fantastic! Excellent skill, great communication, thoughtful advice, and top notch professionalism. Believing Painting treated my home as if it were his own. I could not be happier with the process and finished result and can absolutely highly recommend this company to anyone needing home exterior siding and paint work. Very happy customer here!"

"Rogelio and his team were awesome!! They painted all of the high traffic areas in our house over several days. They provided valued guidance on colors and paint types throughout. The walls look amazing, and they protected the floors and furniture and cleaned up every day. We are very happy with the results and will definitely be calling them again for any future work."
