Contrary to a prior report on Angies list which was negative, I found Olde World Painters to be very professional. Olde World Painters assigned a team to my job and that team worked each weather free day to complete the job. They removed and stored the mahogany lumber from my old deck, they added joists that were necessary to achieve the correct spacing for Trex and finally they completed the job on time creating a very professional deck. I expect to ask Olde World Painters to do more work in the future.

Terrible experience. By using unlicensed plumbers, electricians I had
Gas leaks by outdoor kitchen , fireplace , firepit. Faulty electric work. Leaking
Roof. Men were careless and no concern for completing job properly. Lewis never came
To check on how his men were doing. Only to deliver supplies and collect a check
From me. SWEET TALKER but is out to screw you!!!!! DO NOT USE HIM. Worst contractor
That has ever walked through my doors

They came back about two months later and were supposed to be here in January to repair the work they did. They never showed. I called them in three times and they never came back. I would never advice anyone, to deal with them. All the work done by them reoccurred again within 2 months. They were back to look in at re-caulking and re-repair the crown moldings, which they caulked and painted. We were sure they would come out and I had another job to do that time. They not only didn't come out for the repair; but they also did not come out to do the job, I was contracting and I did not give them money. I called them three times and they never returned my call. They did not stand by their words. They were not reliable and backing up with what they did, even within a 90 day period of time. The guy actually came out and had a look over the problem. He told he'll fix it and gave us the date in January to repair from the garage, which was a new contract. They never returned my call and never acknowledged the fact that; he told he was going to repair. He was supposed to do a small job, which I wanted him to do with the exterior work of the house. Their price wasn't the most expensive; but wasn't the cheapest either. They have done previous two jobs in our house, which was the reason I contacted him again. He painted our exterior twice over the period of 4-5 years. I needed some interior work so I rehired him because the work had been pretty good. Except for the fact that when we contracted for painting interior, my wife told that paint had to be washable, which turned out not to be. The quality of work was not what it was. Indeed he painted the outside of the house. The exterior paints started to separate early probably indicated that they didn't clean the wood properly, before cleaning or didn't use good quality primer. I think some of the problem looking backward may have been, the greater the paint that he may have used. Some of the aspects were good and some were poor. The main problem was either standing by his poor work he had done for the short period and the kind of paint that was supposed to be used, it wasn't. I went through the contract and looking back at it was kind of vague. There wasn't anything legally I could have done about it because it was well specified. I can't take the track record but someone who I felt was pretty good, after a while it gets to be less than good. They were here every morning on time. They showed up and they did their job. They cleaned up well after themselves.
Response from OLDE WORLD PAINTING OF MARYLAND, INC

"The work performed at the member's house was performed in a timely and professional manner. We were paid in full and heard no complaints from the customer at all. About 2 months after the work was completed we received a call asking us to come and take a look at their garage door jam, which the customer broke by driving into it. I had indicated that we could come and replace the door jam at an extra cost, but that they would have to let me know when they would be ready to have the work done. I did mention at the time that we wouldbe available in January but I never got confirmation that they wanted to do the work. We had performed services for this customer before with glowing reports, that it why they hired us again. I'm not sure where things went wrong but I am always willing to fix any contracted work, always. The issues with the painting I am hearing about for the first time today, this is my first time logging into this page. The issue about the garage door jam was an extra job that maybe they wanted to have done, but there never was contract created to do that work, so I'm not sure why there's a complaint about it. We've been in business for over 30 years and we have 1000's of happy customers."

We were completely satisfied by the work of Olde World Painting of Maryland. Not only did they repair the damages done by a contractor, who refused to repair the damages and complete the work, but they did an outstanding job of completing the work. They were on-time. The work was done for exactly what they said the work would cost, and without need for my supervision and double-checking. They picked up all work-related trash, and left the worksite neat and clean.
