"While I was quite impressed with Quinn, I was disappointed with our job. In our contract, it stated that vertical cracks and gaps would be caulked (see quote screenshot) and that all siding boards would be replaced that needed it. I pointed out the ones I knew about but was relying on them to tell me what boards needed to be replaced (see email screenshot). As you can see in the pictures from our chimney inspector today (3 weeks after painting), there was no caulk replaced at all and there are at least 8 more boards we found on our chimney that need to be replaced which have HUGE gaps from warping. When I asked Quinn about those particular boards that I could see from the ground, he said his crew told him they were fine. I'm highly disappointed and now have to hire someone else to fix these issues. I chose QGC as they gave me the best "feel" that things would be done correctly. They were my most expensive quote out of 6, I went with them based on what I thought would be done."

"Had a basement door installed and needed the finish work completed. Kris came and gave us a very reasonable estimate. We contracted Kris and he started our project in a timely manner. He arrived on time with his helper and completed the job in one day. His efforts included finishing the drywall, installing woodwork and painting and staining as necessary. The work performed was outstanding and beyond my expectations. Every detail was exacting and done to perfection. He was very knowledgeable and eager to meet to meet all our needs. I highly recommend him as a true professional who knows his business. I look forward to using his services in the future."

"This review is for est. no. 13342 and the work performed on July 1, 2025. Elliot Lund and Alex Biggan will furnish endless painting spin talk. What you will "not" get is the important surface preparation work specified in the estimate. You also will "not" get a good quality paint work. If you want a painting job that looks like it had been done by your neighbor's 10 year old son, then Culver's Painting is the company for you."

All painters have at least 5 years experience, are detail oriented, well mannered and always professional. We do mostly interiors and some small exterior projects. Anything from a single room to a whole house interior, condo, or office suite. We focus on one project at a time from start to finish. No skipping from job to job. Cost is determined by the job. Prices include all labor and materials including paint. We generally use Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams paints but are also happy to use whichever paint out customers prefer. We get good prices on paint and pass our savings on to our customers. We have a long list of happy, satisfied customers. Please feel free to contact Greg via phone or email to schedule a free estimate. You will not be disappointed!

"We hired Greg through Angi and couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was on time every day, communicated clearly throughout the project, and kept everything clean and organized. Extremely professional yet easy to talk to, he struck the perfect balance between being personable and staying focused on the job. The quality of the work really shows—highly recommended!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Most primers should dry for 24 hours before painting over them, but some primers that are marketed as quick-drying may be paintable sooner. Check the manufacturer’s instructions on your primer to find out how long you should let it dry before painting.

You can test to see if your mist coat has worked by using masking tape after the drying period. Apply masking tape to an inconspicuous area of the wall after the mist coat has had at least 24 hours to dry. Then, peel off the tape. It should come up clear, with no paint residue. If it does have paint residue, you may need to remove the mist coat and try coating the plaster again with a different ratio of paint and water.

If you have a can or two of paint that's past its prime, replacing it shouldn't be too expensive. A gallon of paint costs an average of $25. You may pay more if you want a superior quality paint or if you choose oil-based paint instead of latex or acrylic. 

Buying in bulk can help you save, provided you use all the paint you purchase. For example, a 5-gallon bucket of paint tends to cost less per gallon than a pint or quart-sized can.

If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.

Unlike high or semi-gloss paint finishes, which can create an excessively reflective effect in indoor spaces, the sheen in satin is understated and right at home on interior walls. If, on the other hand, you don’t want any level of shine at all, consider opting for a flat paint or another similarly sheenless alternative like matte.
