I was very pleased with Jim's ability to work with us on the timing and colors. He and another person who works with him were able to get the job done prior to our move in date. His prices were very fair and they did a wonderful job- they cleaned up after themselves, and the painting looks great. I would definitely reccomend All Aspects to others.

Project ran long and cost more.  This effort cost significantly more than estimated by Genesis.  Make certain you ask for a FIXED PRICE!!
I won't do business with them again.

UPDATE:  I just reviewed the Genesis Painting response.  The additional costs were not discussed upfront; rather, 3 days into the job the painter told me it was taking longer than he anticipated and I had to absorb the additional time and materials cost.  There was no drywall patching.  This clearly was a bait and switch; buyer beware.
Response from Genesis Painting
"We do have fixed price proposals, and have for over 20 years. Our proposals are generally considered to be easy to understand and thorough. We rarely have additional costs and when we do, customers are always discussed up front. When we remove wallpaper we let our customers know that sometimes the wallpaper we are removing was glued down wrong and originally installed improperly, In that case, the drywall needs additional patching since it rips up the drywall removing the glue. This is the case in about one out of five jobs. That additional work and risk is discussed upfront. We also let customers know during the job if it will need patching. The only other alternative is to assume that every wallpaper job was installed wrong, and then add in several hours to the four out five jobs that don't require the patch work. That just doesn't make sense. It's unfortunate that patching is an extra cost, but clearly it is beyond our control or any other painting companies."

This was our second major project working with Genesis Painting this year. And once again, we had the pleasure of having Jake's team of Mario and Bobby on the job. As expected, the work was absolutely amazing. They truly went above and beyond in order to make sure our 1962 home with the old lead paint look like new. And now it does! Their attention to detail was second to none. 
All in all, the guys were always friendly, professional, punctual, and addressed all of our concerns. We couldn't have asked for more from them.
 We have a couple of interior drywall and painting projects coming up in the near future and  hope to get Jake's team again.

Jim is very reasonably priced and has done a great job in everything he has done for us.  This is the 2nd room he has painted for us and both times he has done a great job.  The first room was our basement.  He was very helpful in helping us decide which colors would look good together.  He sat with me for a long time going through the color wheel and really caring about how it would turn out.  Then once we decided he painted our basement and it turned out great!  He took his time and he did a wonderful job! 
The 2nd room he painted was for my daughter.  She wanted 2 stripes all the way around the room.  He made sure every inch of the stripes were even and made sure the colors turned out just the way she wanted them.  When she walked in to see her room for the first time she was so excited!  It turned out great! 
Jim was referred to us by my sister who has has painted many rooms in their home and has done a great job also!   I would highly recommend him!

"the homeowners were very easy to work with i give them all A ' s after a lot of work the stripes looked prety good but the daughter loved them ,made it all worth while and then some........."

Rooms had not been painted in over 20 years.  Painter did an excellent job prepping the rooms for painting.  Consulted with us as he went along to assure our satisfaction.  He did redo a couple wall cracks that he was not happy with.  Rooms were painted twice.  Furnishings and floors and woodwork was protected while he painted.  He was very gracious and respectful to us and the house.
He left the room cleaner than he found it and the walls and ceiling look Great!

The job went very well.  Jim had an 'assistant' with the painting - Victor, who works full time for Genesis Painting did an outstanding job.  Jim and Victor worked very well together.  They were organized and tidy.  Their work was excellent.  I couldn't ask for anything more.
Backing up a bit, I was very appreciative of the options Jim offered when he made his 'bid'.  He provided several options for dealing with the light switch - some much less expensive than others.  Jim's ideas on the project made the results a success - details like the caulking and ways to handle trim in different parts of the room.

They did an EXCEPTIONAL job!! Jim and Victor are very talented painters who have an incredible attention to detail. Jim and Victor work well together and they finished in 2 days. They were well prepared for the job, showed up on time and did a fantastic job of leaving our home clean. They even swept the front sidewalk!! I will definitely refer All Aspects Painting to family, friends and anyone who is looking to hire a painter (In fact, I already have). They are real masters of their trade.

Jeff provided an expert assessment of the problems and detailed explanation of the process.  Jason communicated repeatedly regarding when the project could be started based on the weather.  Jason and crew did an excellent job and made everything tidy at the end of each day.

This is the second time Jim has painted our home this year.  Jim was referred to us by a friend who had hired him to paint some areas in their home.  She had many good things to say about him and his work.  From the minute you talk with him on the phone, you know he is a great guy! He first painted our kitchen and living room and most recently our 3 bedrooms.  Both times he came to paint we had been out of town and both times when we had returned home we were amazed at the great job he had done.   He is so meticulous with his work and he really takes the time to talk with you and answer any questions you have and gives great color advice as to what he thinks will work or not work for the look you are trying to achieve.  We have received so many compliments on the painting/colors in our house, especially our living room, which has 3 different colors!  We have nothing but nice things to say about Jim and we have referred Jim to neighbors, friends and family and would definitely call him again for any of our painting needs.

The project was outstanding from start to finish.  Jim is a true professional.  The results were amazing and made my wife and I very happy.  Jim Vincent is a person you will enjoy having in your home.  He is friendly and extremely trust worthy.  You can learn many valuable tips if you asked Jim questions and just watch him work..  Jim started on a Monday and was finished by the end of the week.
He still stopped back to do the finishing touches a couple times the next week.  Jim is a perfectionist and prides himself on outstanding results.  This is the third time Jim Vincent has done a project for my wife and I.  We highly recommend Jim and will use him in the near future.

They did a good job, they were professional, courteous and very flexible. The deal was for 3 rooms, but 1 of rooms did not require painting but needed touch up work instead so they were very accommodating to that.

We selected Genesis Painting based on reviews and their reputation. We are happy we did. Not only was their price estimate lower than the all others we received, but the work was superb. We were pleased with the entire crew (Jeff the estimator, Jake the project manager, and Mario the painter/drywaller) Everyone was friendly, attentive, and professional. But first and foremost the work was just beautiful. We highly recommend them and will be using them in the future.

Painted a bedroom that hasn't been painted in over 15 years. Paint two different wall colors per customers request. Cleaned area before painting, and it needed it. His price included a total of three paint color (walls (2), ceiling, and inside closest) He also repaired any holes and such. As we observed the painting process in the bedroom we requested him to "repaint" a bathroom. He repainted the bathroom, which was a "sandy" paint job, it is beautiful.

Worked steady until done. Very knowledgable. First time our deck door has been fixed correctly. Jim quickly recognized the problem and fixed it so it would STAY FIXED. Jim showed up when he said he would and worked steady until done each day. While the bathrooms were our main project, he was able to do several other small projects including indoor electrical and outdoor lighting. We would have written this review sooner except for an unanticipated broken arm. We are very pleased with Jim's work.

I had high cathedral peak ceilings and they put drop cloths over everything. They did an excellent job and did not take breaks. They left nothing behind to clean and the paint job was perfect. I have had people that look at the work who give them a 10. I will definitely use them again and I would highly recommend them.

Genesis did an excellent job, were extremely professional and paid lots of attention to detail. Never felt they were in a rush to leave or that they were cutting corners. I was hoping for a lower overall cost, but in the end I am very happy with the outcome and feel like what I got was worth every penny. Would definitely refer them to a friend (and have)!

Great company to work with....from estimate to finished product the team was always responsive and followed through on all promises.  My home is a 148 year old Victorian.  It was long overdue for painting and also needed significant wood replacement.  Genesis did an amazing job and stuck to all their estimates.  Strongly recommend them for quality of work and customer service.

Jim came to the house the same day I called to give an estimate.  We scheduled the work for one week later.
He arrived on time with all needed materials, as we had discussed on the day of the estimate.
He carefully prepped the room for painting.  (I had spackled nail holes the day before.)
While the first coat dried he installed our Rubbermaid closet shelving.  
Then he painted the second coat.
Finally, he added legs to adjust our headboard and fixed the towel hanger in the bedroom.  
I am very pleased with the work he did, and I could not possibly have done it all myself in such a short time.

Great experience and great work!  Jim took the time to fully understand my expectations, calculated material cost accurately and  got the painting done while I was out of town. Workmanship was impeccable!  Corners where different colors met were very sharp.  After this experience would not use another painter ever!
