We were unable to meet this customers need in the time frame that she needed the work done. I appreciate the purchase and appreciate Angie's List for refunding her money because we could not get to her job in a timely manner because we have been so covered up with work.

Description of Work: The job site was inspected prior to any work and we were told it would take 2 gallons of paint, we bought 3 just to make sure there would be enough. The 3 gallons of paint was used and we had to supply a 4th gallon to complete the job. They did not report to work at 9:00 AM, it was more like 9:20. It took longer than the two days so we were charge an additional fee. We also got complaints about the low hourly rate being paid on the $400.00 deal that was offered and we accepted. I don't know for sure but I think they were busy and didn't have enough man power to cover their work so they rotated men from job to job. The work started on a Monday and everything was finally finished on the following Saturday. They borrowed a heat gun and vacuum cleaner from us. We got to the point that we just wanted the work finished and to get them out of our house.

Response from Bradford Painting
Please read my other reviews. We used a lot of sheetrock mud to repair walls that were damaged and to float some new sheetrock. The mud did not dry very fast . As I recall it was damp and raining a lot at that time. This created more trips to the job site and it did take quite a bit longer than I expected because of the sheetrock not drying properly . I did request additional money and an estimate is an estimate. Sometimes there are things that are not foreseen when you estimate a job . By and large I stay within the parameters of my estimate this was a difficult situation . My workers nor I enjoyed working for this couple. They were not pleasant to be around . I would not do business with this customer again under any circumstance. My reviews speak for themselves however we did not feel welcomed in this home from the very first day. I am sorry this customer feels this way about the job that we did

Description of Work: Earlier in 2015 I hired Bradford painting. A very professional couple was sent. They painted hall, bathroom, and bedroom - walls and ceiling. They did a very good job and I was very pleased. So, when I was ready for more painting I called Bradford again. I was expecting the same level of work and I was extremely disappointed. The second job was for kitchen, hall, office, bedroom, and bathroom - walls and ceiling. It was a totally different experience the 2nd time. Here is a snippet of the letter I sent to Bradford painting with a partial payment. I ask for the owner to come and see the problems on more than one occasion, but he never came, nor did I receive a response to my letter. |1. The mess. Some of it was texture, some of it was paint, but I have spent several hours cleaning up paint. From my less than a week old hardwood floors in the office, to the stove, microwave, cabinets, light fixtures (in every room), hardware in the bathroom, and TV cabinet in the master bedroom. |2. The trash. In the master bedroom, when we went to move the desk back to the office ourselves, there were fast food bags and wrappers crumpled up on the desk, soda cups with liquid in them, water bottles both empty and still with water, power drinks or Gatorade type drinks left sitting around half full. Leaving this kind of trash anywhere is not professional, but eating in a client's house (bedroom) is beyond anything I've ever experienced. |3. The bathroom and hall that Nick came back to finish are still unfinished. Where before the 2nd coat was missing, it is now streaked and just areas that need the 2nd coat. |4. When surveying the job and what he was to do, I specifically pointed out 2 places where he was to leave the screws in the wall for a mirror and a shelf that were going back up. We specifically spoke about he was to remove all other nails, screws, things like that from the walls and fill in the holes. He did not do that. He painted right over them. |5. The towel racks, hooks, and lights were not pulled away from the walls before painting, but were just painted around. This has left paint on brand new light fixtures and hardware and the old stuff too. When previous crew was here they pulled everything away from wall to be painted and then returned when done. I will now have to scrape the paint off lights and fixtures. |6. You pointed out hours logged in your text message. The hours you have logged are different than the hours I have logged. First day Nick was late, was here about 5 minutes and left for court. This court appearance was known before you scheduled me to have painting done on the same day. We busted out and were prepared and ready for painters 8:00 am Monday morning. He returned after 11:00 am, and wanted to work late, but we had previous plans, so he left at 5:00 pm. The second day, his brother did show up before Nick, approximately 9:15, but he waited for Nick arriving to start work, about a half an hour after he arrived. In fact I didn't see the brother working at all. The times I saw him he was sitting. They also took an hour lunch break that day, that wasn't considered in the hours. They left shortly after 5:00. Wednesday it was Nick alone, arriving between 12:15 and 12:30 pm. He left shortly after 5:00 pm. You had told me 2-3 days for the job, I assumed 7 hours during normal business hours. Instead this disrupted our lives for the week and will be disruptive still until I can arrange to have painting completed. | |The first day he painted he covered and tarped everything before he started. The rest of the days he did not. I don't know why the change in procedure. And the fix he provided on Friday was done hurriedly and after paint drying it is not good. It is hideous. | |The job was never completed as the small hallway and master bathroom still need to be finished. Please feel free to stop and look at the unfinished mess left in my hall and master bathroom. It will be a few days before I can have it fixed. I truly did not get a professional painting job and so do not feel I should be charged professional painting prices. | |Turns out when they came to fix the mess in the bathroom and hall, they cleaned their equipment in my master bathroom sink and tub and did not clean it up. It was a gray paint. Equipment was not cleaned thoroughly and so gray streaks were left in all areas they 'fixed'. |

Please read my other reviews. We did have some problems on this particular job .my apologies to this former customer. She did end up paying a lot less than what the job was worth. I did not respond to much to her because I felt like it was a losing battle. I did send him back over there to fix things serval times but we never were able to make her. The same painter does have a lot of positive reviews I don't know if he was having a bad time personally at that point or what. This is my second negative review where we have actually done work on a job. Most of my reviews are positive and most of the time my painters do very good work. My apologies again to this customer

Description of Work: Bradford Painting employees pressure washed the aluminum siding on my house then painted the siding and wood trim. Trey, Nick and Jake were young men who were very hard workers, polite, conscientious, and cleaned up after themselves. They did a fantastic job and the finished product is highly satisfactory. Owner Les Bradford was very dependable and easy to work with. He was accessible by phone or text. The price was reasonable for the work performed. I would definitely recommend them for exterior painting. In fact, I have already given Bradford's contact information to a friend!

They did a great job painting, and we were very happy with the quality of their work! My wife and I had picked out all of our colors and bought the paint, thinking that we would try to do the paint job ourselves. After getting a phone call that our brand new carpet was being installed earlier than expected, we called Bradford Painting and were so glad that we did. Les came out to our home and gave us a price range quote, and Casey and Angie did the actual painting. Casey had tons of experience, and his freehand lines were very straight. Angie was new and learning from Casey, but she did a good job. They were quick and fair priced, and we would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs a painter.

Les was very professional and friendly from the beginning. He returned my call within 20 minutes and met me as soon as we both could to give me a quote. The price was fair and Les was open about how he came to that price. One of his men, Casey, came to do all of the painting. He did a wonderful job and used the paint that I had provided them with no complaints. He was quick and did an excellent job. If he had any question on how to proceed, he didn't hesitate to ask me before continuing. I will definitely call them to do the finishing painting before we move in. Highly recommended!

I made an inquiry on the Bradford Painting website about 5 pm one afternoon. By 8 am the next morning I had a return call from Les. I told him the details and since it was a small job he gave me a price over the phone. It was beyond reasonable. They got to the job quickly. They showed up exactly when they said they would. I was replacing a dark color with a light color and Les advised me on what kind of paint would cover it in two coats. The kitchen looks great now and the price he gave me was even slightly less than the quote. Les stayed in contact with me to schedule a date that would work for both of us. A couple of phones calls and several text messages. Bradford painting was fantastic and I'm already planning to have them paint my bathrooms, laundry room and some trim after my kitchen remodel is finished. I highly recommend them.

Les was awesome! First, Les came highly recommended. I also saw him on Angie's List. He was very prompt to respond to my email inquiry from his website. He showed up when he said he would, started when he said he would and did an absolute wonderful job. He made sure that everything was perfect including trim work that needed touching up. I totally trust him in the house when I wasn't there and the job only took 7 days. I will be having my bathrooms done next year and without a doubt I will use him. I highly recommend him. Price was awesome, much less than I thought it would be.

I contacted Les at the recommendation of a relative who had used his company for interior painting and was happy with the results. I was looking for an estimate for exterior painting and the repair of some deteriorating windows. In some cases the glazing was cracked and falling away from the windows. I found Les easy to talk to and we discussed various options for how to approach the repair job. Les provided me with some recommendations for siding companies as well as window replacement companies so that I could get estimates from them as well and then make an informed decision about the direction we wanted to go in. After collecting the estimates, and taking into consideration the age of the house, etc., we decided to take the cheaper route and have Les repair and paint the exterior of the house - there was some rotted wood - and repair any windows that needed re-glazing - quite a few. It was a difficult job, but Les stuck with it and stayed in close communication with us throughout the process so that we kept track of his labor and material costs, etc. The job took longer than we were anticipating, but again, Les stuck with it until we were satisfied and all items were complete. His worker - John - did a great job completing the work by scraping the windows and thoroughly cleaning the windows and the work area after the paint and repair work was done.

We had a rather large hole in the wallpapered ceiling of our bathroom. Les gave us an estimate and came out and did the work in a timely manner. We couldn't tell the extent of the damage because of the wallpaper, and it ended up being more extensive than we originally thought, but Les was still able to complete the work in a timely manner and within the parameters of his original estimate. He repaired the ceiling and repainted it. A good job.

I am repainting the interior of my house and was looking for somone that would be reasonable on price and do a quality job. So I began to research painters and came upon Bradford painting and called Les to give me a price quote. When he came out to my house to give me an estimate I let him know right away that I was on a tight budget. He was extremely easy to talk to and gave me many options on how we could work the job to be the most reasonable while maintaining quality. What sold me on him was his customer service and obvious vast knowledge in this business as well as his willingness to help me save money. I was shocked that he was ready to do what it took for me to meet my budget. Every other price quote I had gotten at that point was well above what I talked about with Les and I did not get the same sense that the other companies were wanting to help me nearly as much as Les. Sold! Setting up a time to get the job started was also easy, we worked out the best time for us both which was only about a week or so after he gave me the estimate. The job took about 7 days and that was to paint the entire house, every room to include all ceilings, trim, cabinets, doors, window frames and kitchen. Not to mention, Les went above and beyond just painting and fixed an issue with one of our celings that had been a blemish to our home for years. When it comes to payment, he was again extremely reasonable and I am still blown away at just how reasonable and easy this process was for such an overwhelming job. Not to mention, my husband and I were able to work within our budget which was very low and the next lowest estimate that I had recieved from another company was at least double what I paid using Les. Again, I highly recommend Les Bradford with Bradford painting.
Description of Work: Les is a professional in every way he runs his business not to mention very easy to work with. The quality of work and the customer service are outstanding and pricing is extremely reasonable. I would absolutely use him again in the future and I highly recommend him.
