TEN STARS!! I wanted my single story house repainted, and selected Scott Smith based on his excellent Angie's List rating, competitive price quote, and his friendly and knowledgeable demeanor when he presented his proposal. My house needed significant woodwork repair, and Scott recommended PRO-CON, a licensed Class B contractor which did an excellent job (see separate review). After the repairs were completed, I scheduled Scott to start painting on a Tuesday, which was completed by Friday (I let Scott determine the schedule). Scott and his assistants Ely and Mike always arrived early and cleaned up the property daily before leaving. Scott has 40+ years experience painting and did a perfect job. He takes pride in his work and has great attention to detail, and I could not find anything that needed correction after our final walkaround inspection. I highly recommend Scott Smith (SLS Painting) for any painting job.

Scott painted the exterior of my home several years ago and I was very happy, so I hired him to do my interior after a kitchen and bath renovation. Scott and his crew did a great job--he said it would take three days and they were in and out within that time frame. They arrived everyday on time, and I really appreciated Scott's advice on paint color and answering all my questions and concerns. Scott is really down to earth, very conscientious and and I was thrilled with the job.

His schedule due to the rain last fall didn’t work out and I haven’t heard anything from him since. It started raining in the fall last year and it kept getting delayed and delayed and it finally got into the winter, and I just haven’t heard anything back from him. There was no cost for the estimate. He was very thorough, it was easy to understand and the price was fair. I would use him if he comes back out to do it, I just haven’t heard from him. The price was good and the references I got on him were good, so overall it was satisfactory. That is why I went with him.
Description of Work: We had contracted him to paint our house. He came out and did an estimate. It was to paint the entire exterior.

He did a good job. I was pleased with that. I let him know that I do anticipate doing the entire house here very soon, so my guess is I will have him come back and bid on the project once we reach that point. The service was about $400, it was just 2 doorways. We negotiated the cost ahead of time, so I knew what it would be and he maintained that price. He was pretty booked in trying to get everything done, he had a lot going on and he was able to work the schedule. So, I was very happy with that. I definitely will discuss the project and if it looks like he is responsive in cost and availability, I will probably use him. I will be looking into getting a number of bids on it. It was a pretty basically job, refinishing 2 doorways and it was very well done.
Description of Work: I did have Scott do some work on my house. Fairly minor work. I had some doors that needed repainted.

We purchased an Angie's list deal for a painter for a day. Scott was very responsive and came out to the house to take a look at the job before our scheduled date. He recommended the type and amount of paint we should purchase. On our scheduled date of service, he was on time and worked all day. He removed the blinds before painting and reinstalled them when he was finished. The rooms looked great. We will use Scott again when we paint the exterior of the house.
Description of Work: Scott painted the walls and baseboards in 2 bedrooms.

After viewing the property and understanding our needs, Scott proposed to save us significant money by doing a "freshening up" rather than a complete repainting job. He was able to paint the areas where needed in such a way that they matched adjacent original wall. Moreover, he was able to meet my short time schedule for completion. Scott and his crew of 2 others were pleasant to work with and they left the job site very clean, not to mention tremendously more attractive. I am very pleased with their work.
Description of Work: Interior painting of 3 BR rental house (1150 sq ft) to make property ready for new tenants (9 years since complete interior painting). The job included painting most walls due to scuff marks, patched holes, etc. plus significant touch-up work on cabinets, doors, jambs and baseboards.

We hired Scott off an Angies List Deal of the Day - plus there was an additional $5 off coupon. He was quick to respond, friendly and professional. He wanted to meet right away because of the recent rains he had a lull in his schedule. He met with my husband and I on a Saturday morning. He was prompt and courteous. We had painted our master bedroom a dark chocolate brown a few years ago, and while still a pretty color, it just made our room too dark. We also don't have an overly large MB so the dark color really made the room feel small. We had been discussing when we wanted to repaint but neither of us had the desire or motivation to paint it ourselves. When this deal came along, and I read the reviews for Scott, I decided to go ahead and try his services out. At first when we explained what we wanted to do, he didn't have a problem painting the room itself, but was adamant he couldn't move our furniture on his own. He explained he really didn't have other painters who worked for him except one or two other guys possibly. We have hardwood floors so I thought he could simply push everything into the middle of the room and then move it back. When he explained he couldn't do that I was a bit put off (came across a bit gruff), but my husband said we could move the nightstands, etc out into the dining room and we would move the dresser & bed around ourselves. No big deal. We planned on Monday to have him come out since he had an opening due to the rain. He showed up promptly - if not a few minutes early - and got to work right away. We had gone to Lowes that Saturday and bought the new paint color and we bought an extra gallon just in case since the wall color was so dark. Scott was friendly, professional and got to work right away taping stuff off, getting out his fans, covering our floor, etc. Outside of checking progress from time to time I left him alone. He took a lunch break and then went right back to work. Scott did a great job in painting our entire room including the door trim to our closets. He cleaned up everything and just advised not hanging anything on the walls until the next day. We were very pleased with his work and it was a great A.L. deal that saved us the headache of doing it ourselves. Now our MB feels and looks brighter and larger. Very happy.

This man boasted that he was the owner,so we were getting the pro himself. The guy was a very sloppy painter, and he spread his stuff everywhere leaving no walkway anywhere. He was extremely slow, cursed a lot and talked on his cell phone much of his 8 hours of work. This was not a deal - even at $199.00 for 8 hours !! I wouldn't recommend him.

Response from Scott L Smith Professional Painting
This is a case where the exterior of the house was in Terrible shape The trim was peeling very badly everywhere It had not been painted in maybe 20 years It was my opinion that it could not be scraped / sanded / repaired And then primed and painted in only one day I did not want to do a poor job in only one day I explained to [member name removed] I would be happy to do whatever he wanted to do but he declined To give a poor grade when I explained everything to him is rather strange

It went exactly how he suggested. He repaired and sanded the Kitchen cabinents before painting. On the last day he used a coat of clear to make sure the paint would stay and to keep tiny little smudges from our little nieces and nephews off the cabinets. What a lifesaver that is.
Description of Work: This is a wonderful painter. He not only painted our Kitchen Cabinets but also the walls between the Kitchen and dining room. In a 60+ year old house in SoCal , the cabinets turned out so well.. He used just the right paint and color and turned our old cabinets into new ones. He was nice to work with and we'd love to use him again

Scott did a wonderful job! He arrived promptly and got right to work. Our living room looks so much better and now we are ready to wallpaper and carpet to finish off the room. He even gave us pointers on how to wallpaper. He is a very personable fellow who seems to enjoy his job and he is an excellent painter. I cannot recommend him highly enough!! We will probably have him back to help with our family room and kitchen remodeling also. You will be pleased if you hire him.
Description of Work: He painted the ceiling and fireplace plus all the door mouldings.
