"Contractor painted 18 ft high foyer and family room. Installed glass mosaic tile backsplash in kitchen. Very professional work. Project was done faster than expected. Price was reasonable. Very pleased with end results. Would hire again for additional projects."
"Went wonderful with the contractor. They were great to work with and helped us navigate a very troublesome insurance company. They drove from northern Virginia to silver spring to do the work as well, not any easy task and a long commute in traffic. They were just great."
