Hired them...areas were clearly not covered enough and you could see major brush strokes and other areas the paint was already coming off around the sink. Asked them to fix and they would not. Would never recommend them to anyone unless you want to waste your money...

Lisa and her crew did a great job painting the entire inside of our house. They were very courteous and careful and their professionalism was beyond reproach. I would have no problem recommending them to anyone who is looking for painters that care about the customer more than the money.

The folks came on time, were easy to deal with a very pleasant attitude, made adjustments as requested, paid attention to detail, totally neat and cleaned up everything. Couldn't ask for a better company. Highly recommended. Will hire them again when it's time to do the outside.

We hired them to do touch up work on our house, and they led us to believe that they would do work that they later claimed was impossible for them to do. I would not hire them or recommend them. In fact, they left totally untouched one of the very things that we hired them to do, and then discounted our bill by just over 3%. I would avoid them in the future. Lots of miscommunications and frustration and we waited for months and months to have this work done. Now I'm STILL going to have to do it myself or hire someone else who is willing to take the time to do good work.
Response from Augusta Steam It
"First things first. Your home was painted years ago with a less then quality paint. the paint had faded from sun exposure, and the one coat paint job that you had done offered no viable chips to get an accurate sample from. Going from the original paint chip showed that the color was brown to start with, and is no so faded that a touch up will give you brown conduit on a extremely faded wall, verses the white conduit you now have. to remedy this, you will need to consider a full repaint of the foundation area, which in this case is the entire first floor siding. Your Quote was for specific areas on your home. these areas were done and completed. the remaining areas on your house now stand out as being dirty, one coat cheap paint job. the front porch for example has holidays, you can see where the one coat applied before was spread too thin and has streaks, and the paint used was not mildew resistant and is totally covered in black mildew. We are always reluctant to accept touch up projects because of these issues. I can not help but wonder why you did not call the painters that did the project in the first place for you? We left a full gallon of the original foundation paint there. Should you desire, I will personally come out and paint that conduit, BUT I will assume no liability when your conduit is then factory fresh in the original color and your foundation is 5 shades different. your 3% discount was for 3 % of the job, we made the judgement call that it would look worse had we painted it pink.... we left you that gallon of paint. I strive for satisfaction in every job. Instead of posting online, you are free to first call me directly at 540-448-1475 and we can attempt to resolve this issue. AS a foot note, to date, this is my first inkling that you were not satisfied, as you remitted the check for the quoted work, . In the future, before you go posting bad reviews, try communicating with me. Respectfully, Lisa Coles. Owner at Augusta Steam-It Painting Contractors My sons reply is as follows; Hi [Consumer name withheld at their request] I am sorry you feel that I took too long to arrive at your project. A lot of our projects schedule up to a year or more in advance. From the time I received your wife's phone to call confirm the project we completed the work less then 4 weeks later. We had previously painted a rental home of yours that you were very satisfied with, satisfied enough in fact to re-hire us. The one small thing that we did not paint was a simple judgement call on aesthetics of the house. I used all of the color samples provided"

What a delight to experience exceptional customer service, exceptional communication, and friendly and considerate interactions. The project was started and completed in an extremely efficient and timely manner with GREAT attention to detail. I'm very pleased with the results! Moreover, I'm pleased to have found a small business that is exceptional in both products AND services! Lisa and Ray Coles are a delight to work with. If you wan to be confident in the job being performed and relieved at knowing you will be informed at each step along the way, have "August Steam It" complete your project!

Our experience with Lisa, her husband and son could not have been any more wonderful!! Our house was nothing but problems and Lisas' response to all of them was, "No problem". They totally redid our house and helped us make it a home. They were professional, courteous, kind, respectful, efficient and tidy!! Hire them, you won't regret it!! Their work is guaranteed but you won't need it.

I made an appointment with Augusta Steam It for an estimate, which they kept promptly. They gave us an estimate on the spot. We explained we would like to get our banquet room painted as soon as possible. Inclement weather was around so Lisa and her crew started working as soon as the rain started. Lisa is more than willing to work with the customer and realizes that time has a definite value to the customer. The job was professional and work completed as agreed. Lisa is knowledgeable and helpful with current laws. I would rehire and recommend others use Augusta Steam It. Thanks Lisa
