Another person bid lower than they did but they seemed very professional and I liked them. I think it was a very fair price but the other guy came underneath. They seemed like very professional and responsible painters.
Description of Work: We called them, they came over promptly for an estimate. It was for interior painting.

Description of Work: Prep'd and painted 4 bathrooms and 1 small bedroom. Excellent work. Clean cut-ins and lines; no drips. Removed light fixtures and fixed nail holes. Prompt; even worked on weekends to help meet our schedule. Would highly recommend Rick. We plan to use him for exterior painting. Very clean; even mopped the new tile floor when he was done painting. Good guy; you take his word to the bank.

Power washed railing prior to scraping off old, chipped paint off deck railing, top and bottom. Matched the current paint on the railing and did an excellent job of both painting and not leaving any residue at all. In fact, other than the railing looking excellent, you couldn't tell that they were there. Rick was recommended by a neighbor, and it was an excellent recommendation !

They made it look like a house instead of a ramshackle shack in the woods. Rick really knows his craft. My house was built in 1971 and had only been reprinted once in its life. You can guess what a mess it was. I wanted to re-side it because that was pretty patchy and I just couldn't afford it with all the other repairs. Rick said he would make it so I wouldn't feel like that, and he did! It came out so much better than I expected. Rick and Rick (other painter) did a tremendous job. Their attention to detail and their attitude of treating the house as if it were their own really shows in the end product. The first issue was the mildew that had grown over the years. He did a treatment with something that would kill it and then washed that off so it won't grow back. They did so much prep work, sanding and caulking. Then he used a special primer that bonded to the wood and sealed that old paint. Then they painted, even getting into small spaces that I wouldn't have noticed. They saw other things and fixed them as they went, always letting me know what was happening. This was not an easy job by any means and would have daunted less experienced and professional painters. Everyone but the Ricks were surprised at how good the house looks. His estimate seemed higher than most but it wasn't considering all the work that went into it. It wasn't that much higher, either. He painted my neighbors house 7 years ago and it still looks like it was just done. That's how I found out about him. He really knows how to handle places that have special weather issues, woods, seaside, etc. I'm very pleased.
Description of Work: Washed, sanded, caulked, primed and painted exterior of house.
