CRYSTAL SPRINGS PAINTING CO INC

The bid did not go well at all. Their bid was quite a bit more expensive than the competing bids. The person who came was on time but it took much longer than I anticipated to get the actual bid. There wasn?t much feedback and there wasn?t much personal interest; they didn?t do much to show that they care.

They do have one challenge and that is that they are popular. Therefore, you have to wait a while to get them out to do the work you want. It is thorough work though and very neat. They do a beautiful job. They even direct you to what paints to buy since they only work with certain ones that they believe are the best.

I selected for this company because they do both the carpentry and the painting. They took a long time to get to my job; I thought they had forgotten about me. The carpentry was excellent; they dealt well with my old uneven walls and were responsive to my requests. I was not as pleased with the painting. They appeared not to know how to do repairs on knock down texture (tapestry) and I had them do it over in one area and only settled for the result. They painted over spots on doors that I would have patched before painting. One door and one trim piece got no final coat but the lighting in the hall is poor and I didn't notice it in my walkthrough. The workmen were courteous and left the house neat and usable for the days that they were here.
