"Stuart was extremely responsive and reliable. He did a wonderful job cleaning and staining our deck, in addition to providing a quick and accurate estimate. I would highly recommend Summit Painting's services to anyone."

"This was a deck re-stain 3 years after a complete exterior house/deck painting job, so we are repeat customers. As before, they provided solid advice, firm quote, used quality materials, workers showed up on time with COVID masks. Very nice work on both prep [power wash] and stain, two coats applied accurately, and nice job of cleanup. These folks do an excellent job, as I see fall/winter rain hitting the deck I am especially glad we had it done right."

"My original review is below.  I am updating the review for two reasons.  The first is that after the winter when my husband and I were opening windows, we found they all had been securely painted shut.  Several were so bad my husband had to go outside with an xacto knife to break through the paint.  His father was a painter and my husband said his father would have yelled at him if he had ever done that.  

The second reason is the deplorable shape our deck is in.  We had difficulties at the time with pointing out to Clinton that the deck had not been thoroughly pressure washed.  He finally went and got the pressure washer and re-did the parts of the deck I was unhappy with so I let it go how much I disliked having to argue with him about it even though there were clearly spots that were not very clean.  My current problem is with the sealant he put on the deck.  We have always used clear sealants and never had a problem in the past.  But after the winter the deck looks as though it had never been cleaned or sealed.  

When I called Clinton to tell him, his first response was to say he had done the job he was hired to do and that was that.  The next day I received a conciliatory email offering to work things out.  But when I called to say I wanted him to pay back the cost of the deck or to redo it he said no, he had done all he could and gone "over and above" (as if he were not paid properly for the work.)  He never counter-offered any kind of a solution.  I do know that with Thompson's water sealant we have used in the past which was properly applied we could get through two winters with no problem.  I will add photos as soon as I figure out how to do that.



My original review follows: 

Clinton and the crew were here every day for over a week.  When the trim color was not quite right, Clinton went back to the store and ultimately went to a different paint store to get an exact match.  One of the boards in our steps needed replacement and again Clinton had to go to several lumber outlets to get an exact match to our other steps.
The crew spent extra time removing sealant that had been applied to every seam in our deck railings by the last contractor.  They sanded the railing and replaced a warped board before painting.  When I was not happy with the initial pressure wash on the deck, Clinton re-did it.  The job took three extra days to complete, mostly because of the deck railings and I was fine with that because I wanted the job done right. 
No one played obnoxiously loud music.
The results are good.  The 30 year old house looks new and the shrubs near the house have no damage."
