Milne's Painting

Todd was punctual, professional and a pleasure to work with. Todd and his crew painted the entire inside of our home and we are extremely happy with the work they did. We would hire him again.

Todd and his crew did an excellent job that exceeded my expectations. First, he showed up on time for the estimate and give me a written estimate before end of that same day. Second, he showed up on time and worked long hours to complete that job. Todd and his crew had excellent attention to detail. His team are experienced and knows what they are doing. The house he painted belongs to my 98 year old Mother who said "....the painter did a very good job and I would recommend him to anyone. " She also added: "They are nice local people too" Praise by my Mom does not come easy! So thanks Todd, you made whole process pain free and easy for me.

Excellent! Emergency work done at time, cover the graffiti with the exactly match paint. Very nice and knowledgeable of his job

It went really well. The owner was very nice. They were very quick. They showed up on time. They really did a good job.

They were very professional. They did a lot of prep work and it turned out great.

Angie's List keeps bugging me to write a review and I keep declining. So here you are Angie. BTW, this vendor no longer exists.

The discount was great. The unreported additional costs ran high. He did a great job as far as painting.. He used 2 coats because the house hadn’t been painted. They were all very professional and friendly. They showed up when they said they would and worked the whole day. They were done in 2 ½ days.

They did a good job. That's why I let them pain my house as well. The quality of the work was nice. The owner was very dedicated to his job.

The service turned out terrible. We had them come back 3 times because they kept missing spots. They were irresponsible and unreliable. They had one guy that was actually on some kind of substance and we had him leave. It was not a good experience. It was not good. Even after they left, my husband was the one that did the touch-up. We had them come, paint and when they were cleaning up, it was a mess. It was a big deal purchase. It took about 4 to 5 days and then we had them return 3 times. My husband took care of the cost. I believe we paid them in full.

They were prompt, efficient, and very knowledgable about paint and equipment. I chose the colors, bud Tod had very good sense about how to use the colors. They were pleasant to work with. They cleaned up after themselves, and I would definitely hire them again.

It went pretty good except that they got paint on our curtains. They were going to clean them up but they never did. They were pretty sloppy. The price was good.

I purchased a big deal from Angie's List and their services turned out overall good. My only complaint is that they got a lot of overspray on my hardwood floors. It is tiny, it is not super obvious, but they just did not cover the hard wood well enough, so that is my only complaint there. I would use them again, however I will be right on it for coverage of the floor and stuff. I did not inform them of the overspray. They charged me an additional amount to do some additional work and it was a very reasonable amount for some additional work. They did a good job.

Did not have work done.

I called him in September. He said he would call back. He did not. I called him in November and finally made an appointment which he cancelled and rescheduled for December. He was here about 3 hours. He charged me an extra $100.00 and had me buy all the material,,,,,,drywall and plaster. My house is run down but that does not mean you can just leave wet plaster on the carpet. I would not use Milne Painting again. I feel like I was duped.

Work was completed in timely manor. Felt he overcharged for closet door repairs.

They were responsive and prompt, overall they did a good job but they were a little messy and that I am taking paint splatter off my hardwood floors, probably for the next year I'll be doing that. They were pleasant, they did a little extra work and I paid for it and it was reasonable, it was something they had suggested. Over all it was a good experience except there was a lot of catch up I've been doing myself also, I pay quite of attention to detail and like I said I am really struggling with the lack of covering or attention to covering the floors. It's all dark hardwood and it's white splatter everywhere. Their only drawback was the floor covering issue.

I was not happy with their service and I will not use them again in the future.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It was okay. I thought that they had rushed it. When we got the estimate, they had already told us it was going to take 2 and a half days and instead they did it in 1 day into the night and so they messed up a lot of stuff because it was dark. They had to come to do some touch up works.

Todd and his crew arrived on on time and ready to work. They were personable and easy to communicate with. Todd had already helped to pick a color that changed by fog gray house to a sunshine yellow beauty. The crew put in regular days for 2 full days and most of the 3rd day. The work was completed on schedule and the clean-up was very good.

The back of the garage and workshop gets the most sun, and the paint was deteriorating, while the rest of the house is in reasonable shape. The Angie's List offer of 1300 square feet of painting for $1299 seem like a good chance to take care of that area. It is possible I may call Milne Painting when I am ready to do the whole house, or parts of the interior.

The contractor arrived on time and performed all the work in a timely manner. The quality of the work was excellent. I would use them again.

I've waited over a month since the painting was done hoping Milne painting would get back to me to complete the job and fix the problems. I still haven't heard from them, so this review includes this fact. The deal was for 2 painters for a day- Todd came out and looked at my townhouse (988 square feet) and said it couldn't possibly be done in 2 days for $480. I asked him to send me an estimate for the entire house- he came back with an additional $1100 to do the woodwork and ceilings - I resposded to the email and said let's just do the original - $480 for 2 painters for a day. The two painters arrived at a reasonable time, and were very personable. They completed the walls in about 8 hours. I checked their work and it looked ok based on what I could see at the time. Later in the evening as lighting changed, I found they had completely missed an area in the master bedroom, about 36" long and 2-3 inches high. There was an area on a wall facing that had been missed and there were dirty fingerprints above the window. I also noticed that one of the painters did not tape any of the floorboards- and there was a lot of paint on them- already dried. In another room, they took the blinds down, but didn't put them back- and in another room, there was a section about 4" wide the length of the wall, that didn't get painted. All of the mirror edges on 3 mirrors were covered with dry paint. One of the painters was good about using drop clothes and taping off necessary areas - the other did not do so, when I asked him aobut it, he said he was able to paint fine without it. Unfortunately, that was not the case as every floorboard on the walls he painted is covered with paint. All the furniture had to be moved to the center of the room, standard practice and not a problem. But because no drop clothes were used, I have paint splashes on much of the furniture. I emailed them about the things that needed to be fixed, even sent pictures and received an automated response that they had recieved my email and would get back to me. 5 weeks later they still have not done so, which is why I'm not able to provide them with a better grade.

Todd and his crew were very hard workers, who checked with me frequently about various issues and made sure I knew what was happening at all times. The suggestions that Todd made were smart ones, that enhanced the finished product. I've never seen harder workers who, on some days, worked more than ten hours. Their dedication to making me happy with the paint job, made them by far the best painting crew I've hired in the 33 years I've lived in my home. I've had the house painted several times over the years and the Milne crew was the best! I highly recommend Milne Painting and am grateful for their dedication to doing a great job for a very reasonable price. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Bought the $1300 special Have been trying to get the final estimate. Left message with CJ Triplett on 4/25 Still no answer as of today (5/20) Got another estimate for $2600 with another contractor. Will hire the other contractor and get reimbursement for the $1300 special.

we decided to use Milnes to paint our house based on the Big Deal they were offering as well as the mostly great reviews. it took a few days to get an estimate for the job. it was more than the deal as our house was pretty big, but we expected that. when we finally started to get the job scheduled, they said the job would go from Monday through Friday but as the house was so big it might have to go to the following week starting on Wednesday as they had another job scheduled. Again, we were fine with that. where it started to go South was getting a call at 9pm on Sunday night before the job was supposed to start saying the van broke down and they would start Tuesday. due to my husbands and my schedule, I scheduled myself to take Tuesday off as we only had one car. didn't find out until Tuesday after 9am that they were not coming as the van was still broken. Todd's assistant CJ told me she left a message for me, but there was none on any of my phones (work, home or cell) Needless to say, if I knew that they were not coming, I would have scheduled my day differently. I understand things happen, but I really wish they communicated to me better. I can forgive a lot as long as you tell me things. the only time this would not have been an issue is if the it happened on the way to the job... they came on Wednesday to power wash the house. Thursday was scrape, sand and prime. Friday they showed up before 6am and woke up my husband (who wears earplugs, I had left for work already) which means I am sure they woke up my neighbors. they started painting the house and stayed until 8:30pm. they came back on Saturday and finished up things. so the job went from up to 8 days down to 3.5. they only painted one coat. they told me to get a total of 22 gallons of paint. the paint store only had 17 so that is what I picked up. a total of 14 was used so while it is good we have some extra, I am glad I didn't buy the extra paint. however if they put up the 2 coats as I was actually expecting, I wouldn't have complained. but as they did this job so fast I am wondering what corners they cut. also, these guys chat, bicker and banter all the time. there is no time when they don't talk it seems. this was a bit unnerving at times. and the last nail in the coffin was that they painted all but one window shut. we live in an older home (Craftsman) with the original sash windows. Experienced painters should know they would need to open said windows when painting. we didn't think to test the windows until later, when it was rather warm. The response we got from Todd was that he would come out 'next week'. I am sorry, but that sort of thing doesn't sit well with me and considering we already paid them, there was actually no incentive for them to come back. I asked for a date and got from CJ that she 'understood and would try'. I hated to have to do this but I informed them that we would cancel the check and reissue payment once the windows were open. I got a call 2 minutes later and was told that they would arrive Monday first thing. They came Monday and unstuck the windows, but wanted to make sure we really used the windows. as I said before. I can forgive a lot as long as I am told what to expect and in a timely fashion - I know last minute things are unavoidable, but pretty much everything that went wrong on this job could have been averted if they communicated things to us ahead of time
