Mike (the owner) bid our exterior paint/carpentry job and by the time we accepted his bid, he was ready to work! He arrived the next day (even before we chose paint colors!) to power wash the house himself although he employs other family members. This is a true family-run business – part of the reason we chose this company. Mike was at our house every day, all day, which was also impressive to us. We needed more comprehensive work done than just paint – we needed carpentry with new trim, and removal of some old air conditioners that required new drywall and paint inside and new siding on the outside with our original materials. This was not your average simple paint job, but Mike assured us that his goal was to make sure we were happy with everything he did. Everything that followed proved how much he meant this. Our home needed a lot of prep work: peeling paint, water-damaged siding, and old siding tiles needing repair and replacement. In addition, we asked Mike to add trim around all our windows and on the bottom of each wall. We own a ‘40’s government house and some of the original siding replacement was hard to find; Mike did a wonderful job matching it with newer tiles with lots of cutting. He restored our old siding, cut and replaced our old tiles, and prepped our old house so that it looked almost new even before paint! After priming the house, Mike began painting the body color – and he is quick! – he knows what he’s doing. When we came out of the house and saw our new paint job, we realized we’d made a huge mistake – even though Mike asked us if we were sure and even though we’d painted samples on the house and looked at them in different lighting, we’d chosen a color we couldn’t live with! By this time, Mike’s crew had almost finished the trim, but he barely blinked when we told him the body color had to be changed. He literally sold us the paint he’d picked up that morning to use on his own house and repainted our whole house that same day! Our mistake ended up delaying his crew by a whole day, but he never showed any frustration with us even though we’re sure he must have felt it. Our air conditioner removal project turned out beautifully – you would never know we ever had two large air conditioners in the walls. The siding tiles were placed perfectly and the interior drywall finished and paint matched expertly. Our whole house feels and looks brand new – our neighbors have been complimenting his work all week! We love Mike’s paint on our “new” house! From finish to end, all those projects took five full days. Mike and his crew work hard and work seven days a week – they only ever took a half hour lunch onsite each day, no other breaks. He arrived at 8 and left at 5, like clockwork. Mike provided all materials – he never once asked us to pick up anything for any of the projects. He threw in a couple of smaller projects at no cost that enhanced the paint job - that meant a lot to us personally. He uses quality Sherwin Williams paint – a little more expensive, but certainly worth it. We can’t say enough nice things about Mike and his crew – his word is definitely his bond. We will be asking Mike and his family back for future projects
