MICHAEL CARLIN PAINTING INC

They did it on schedule and on budget.  I like the job the did.

Mike came out to give us an estimate and was very friendly and knowledgeable. We then faxed in the signed contract to begin work. Unfortunately communication was poor from this point on in the project; a voicemail or e-mail would go unanswered for days. This communication problem is my only problem with MC Painting. Once the painting began, the initial work was very quick and the quality of the painted areas was excellent. Unfortunately there were some drips on the siding and windows, and these weren't removed until 3 weeks later. But in the end these drips were removed and we are happy with the result. I would consider using MC Painting again, but I would first look for a more responsive painter.

The job went easily and extremely quickly! We have a beautiful new paint job on our house!

There was a miscommunication as to what they were supposed to paint. My side of the story is that they were supposed to paint the front porch and the back deck, except for the deck itself. They were also supposed to paint the house and trim. The controversy was about whether or not they were supposed to paint the trim on the front porch. The original contract said that they weren't going to paint the deck. To me, a front porch is not a deck. They didn't paint the front porch. I had the owner come out. They did a crummy job of painting the railings on the deck and also the front porch. We agreed on an amount to take off the original contract. The original contract was not completely adhered to. The owner came out and explained that he had problems with his foreman. There were good workers, and the owner himself was pretty good, but the man working for him was not that good. Would I have him paint for us again? Probably not. They did a pretty good job painting the house itself. The price was good as well.

We were very pleased. The craftsmen are very professional, have a great attitude and the pride in doing the job correctly. All three of them worked very hard. We have a number of plants and garden furniture, none of which was damaged. They took extreme care when masking to assure that no over spray would get on anything. At the end of both painting days they carefully collected all of the debris, repositioned our furniture and secured the gates.

Excellent. Great people, great value, high quality; like working with family.

OVERALL EXPERIENCE WITH MICHAEL CARLIN PAINTING WAS EXCEPTIONAL. WE WANTED TO PUT A NEW ROOF, GUTTERS AND PAINT THE HOUSE AND HE COORDINATED ALL OF IT. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED DURING THE WINTER MONTHS WHERE WEATHER WAS A FACTOR AT TIMES, BUT IT WAS ALL COMPLETED IN A TIMELY MANNER. MICHAEL TAKES PRIDE IN HIS WORK AND IT SHOWS. VERY HAPPY WITH WORKMANSHIP.
