The three Browder painters assigned to our home did an outstanding job during their four days in our house. The first 1-1/2 days were spent masking cabinets, windows and wood trim. The senior painter did a walk-through of the house and we identified areas of the house with special need, e.g., small holes in the drywall, cracked baseboards, etc. During their work, they addressed every single point we raised. Before they completed their work we were asked to go over every room and see if there was anything they'd missed. When they'd finished the painting they cleaned up after themselves so well that the house could have passed a General's Inspection. These guys arrived on-time every day, were quiet in their work and did an outstanding job. We have additional painting work that needs to be done in our house and will call Browder to have it done. We recommend them and their work and staff without reservation.
Description of Work: The Browder crew of three professionals came to our house and did a remarkable job painting most of the interior of our home. Before they started work a Browder supervisor visited the house and went over with us and the crew what they were going to do over a four-day period.

Browder Painting Company did an excellent job from start to finish. Armando provided me with a bid that was far superior to the bids I received from other companies. It was written clearly and included so much detail that I knew exactly what services I was purchasing. I cannot say that about the other painting companies. The painters arrived on time, as promised, each work day. The supervisor, Moses, did a great job of communicating with me regularly and showing me the work on a daily basis. The painters took extra care with the details, such as removing door locks and painting the corners of the garage door. Before the painters left I took a tour around the house with Moses. They promptly and cheerfully took care of the minor details we brought to their attention. It was very pleasant to work with Moses and with his crew. In all, Browder did a great job.
Description of Work: They painted the entire exterior of my house, including doors and exterior lights.

They gave me an estimate and were very nice when they came out. They were great, professional, and very nice. They did a good job but I chose not to go ahead with them just because of their pricing.

From the initial walk-around for the bid, to the final inspection at the end, everything was handled in an exemplary manner. I cannot say enough good things about this company. Everyone who works there is extremely pleasant, knowledgeable, and very professional. The house looks brand new, and the clean up was immaculate. They achieved a real transformation. The crew was a fantastic team - Moses, our lead painter, and Bernardo, both of whom have been with Browder for many years, and Bret. They were talented, punctual, good-humored, and they were there every day, all day, until the job was done (one week). Everyone gets an A for communication skills too; Moses kept us in the loop every step of the way as to what would be happening and when. It's obvious that everyone at Browder takes pride in their work and wants the customer to be completely satisfied. And it is a joy to work with a team who like their company and each other.
Description of Work: Painted the exterior of the house which is a mixture of stucco and wood surfaces. There was much scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming necessary for preparation, as the house was in bad shape.

Our house needed exterior painting badly. Browder Painting Company did an excellent job of prepping the walls and woodwork before painting. The process went so smoothly. Painters showed up on time everyday, were very professional, and cleaned up at the end of each workday so you couldn't even tell they'd been there. Our house looks amazing now. Their work is excellent and I would recommend them to everyone. Even the neighbors have been very impressed with the results and are talking about hiring Browder Painting to make their homes look beautiful again.

The experience with Browder Painting Company Inc was good. The workmanship was good for most part. They put paint on the dark brown wood and it still shows but mostly they were okay. I had a problem with my fireplace, I thought the damper was open and it happened to be closed and the house filled with such soot and I had to have it done after that and they did a marvelous job.

Let me start by saying that painting our house is not an easy job. The house, built in 1989, is all wood exterior with a lot of decking and railing. The house was overdue for paint so a lot of prep work was required. At the back of the house the distance from the ground to the bottom of the deck is apx. 32 feet. Believe me that is a long way up when you are hanging off a ladder applying paint to the bottom of the deck structure. The other two bidders on the job were a little leary to say the least, but browder did not bat an eye about doing the job. They also came in with the lowest bid. Win, win! The crew, Jared, Pedro and Juan, did an exellent job. They showed up when they said they would, worked hard, and did not complain. They were easy to get along with and very professional. They listened to our suggestions and did everything they could to make us happy. Armando, the project manager who gave us the initial estimate, was very pleasant and easy to work with, showed up when he was supposed to and made sure the job stayed on schedule. Everyone at Browder, from the office staff, to the crew doing the work did a great job. We have had our house painted several times over the years, Browder Painting was by far the best we have ever had! We highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.
Description of Work: Complete exterior re-paint including wood exterior siding, all trim, decks(top and bottom), railings, retaining walls, with two full coats of paint. Three different colors were used in the process.

Overall, I am very happy with the results. I do not hesitate to recommend Browder Painting.
Description of Work: I was very pleased with the quality of the work done by Browder. The three young men who worked on my house were very professional and personable. I had exterior walls and trim painted plus the trim on 2 decks. No problems, they consulted me on every new decision. No loud radios, loud talking or paint messes.

Armando came out on Saturday to give us the free estimate at the time he said he would be here. He was able to give us an estimate within about 20 minutes after reviewing the structures. He clearly explained the process and that 1 person would be assigned the task to complete from start to finish. We were so impressed by the initial overall experience that I called the office on Tuesday to contract with them to do the service. Pam, their scheduler, was also very nice and was able to get us booked to start that same week. Jared was the painter assigned to our project and he did a wonderful job. He showed up every day and worked full days until the service was completed. The only delay was a day lost to rain. Jared was careful with the furniture in the gazebo and even moved the furniture back in the gazebo the day prior to the rain. This created extra work for him, but it demonstrated to us that he had consideration and care to property. We will be having the exterior of our house done likely next year and I will be contracting with this company to do that service as well. We were very impressed with their professionalism, timeliness and reasonable cost of their service.

All Browder employees were courtesy, responsive, and knowledgeable. We want to make special mention of Larry who painted our house as if it were his own. He made excellent suggestions, especially about the best paint to use on new cabinetry so it would not only have a beautiful sheen, would be easy to clean in the future. His demeanor was very professional and he supervised his assistant well. These men never stopped working and were actually easy to have in the house.Clean-up was perfect.
Description of Work: Browder did quite a bit of interior painting in the house we recently bought.

They are fabulous; I love Browder Painting. This is the second time we have used them and I would go back to them in a heartbeat. The people are fabulous; they are considerate, kind, and knowledgeable. They also are professional and friendly; I can't come up with enough adjectives for them. The work is superior; they keep their appointments and are clean and self-contained. This is the best company I have ever worked with. Their pricing is probably a little bit high but it is worth every penny. I will use them again in the future.

I decided to use them because of their professionalism and their ability to do it. They did the job in six days and I liked their timeliness. I also liked their agreement far in advance as to when they would start. They were two painters on the job and they were very professional and amiable. They were very respectful of our neighbors and were very quite. They started right on time every morning and worked right up to the time they said they would be leaving every day. They always explained as they went along what was going to happen and they did a recap at the end of the day.

We have a stucco house with a lot of wood trim and big plant shelves in front of the windows and they did all of the trim. They cleaned the eaves and took the down spouting sanded it, painted it and put it back. We had them do a couple of cosmetic things where they painted the side garage doors. The job they did was fantastic. We paid $4200 and that included several coats of paint. They had to put five coats of paint on the door as we chose the color red and its very hard to paint it. There was one place where one of the boards on one of the window ledges was dry rotted which they had to go out and replace it with new wood. They had some carpentry involved too. From the word go we were very impressed. We had no knowledge about them other than a flier that was put in front of our house. We were thinking that we had to get this painting done this summer and we thought we would call them and get an estimate from them and a couple of more people. We called them and I was just immediately struck with how professional they were. The man who came out to give us the initial estimate was just terrific. We live in a county with many towns and this company is mainly centered in the southern part of the county and they are hoping to do more business in the north part where we live and that's why they were advertising in our area. The gentleman who came over is in charge of the estimates and so forth of the north county where we live and supervising those jobs. He came over and sat down with us and talked to us about the company, their philosophy, how they work and the standards they expect from their painters. They seemed to really take the time and explain everything to us. He was here for about two hours just talking to us about the quality of paint. He asked us if we wanted the stucco painted and we said we were not sure. He gave us an estimate with the total house painted and one with just the trim. He said my stucco doesn't need it yet. He could have tried to push that and he didn't at all. My husband asked him if he could paint the doors red and he said sure. They were just real careful. The guys who did the painting were really quiet. We sleep-in late most mornings and they would get here by 7:30 and we didn't hear them. We never even knew they were here some mornings. They had a rule where they couldn't play loud music, radio and they were not even allowed to smoke. They were allowed to wear headphones and listen to music that way. They were very quiet and everything was totally cleaned up. We didn't have to do anything. We just went outside and told them what we thought about the work. The supervisor came and checked everyday of what they were doing. They did a walk through with us when they were all finished. We thought we would not be here when they were finishing and the lead guy told us that he would come back the next day which was a weekend. They really followed through and took pride in what they did. We had a lot of people tell us the house looked nice and it made a big difference to us. The house does look great now. There is not one negative thing that I can say about them. They didn't raise the estimate other than they had to charge us a little bit more when they had to replace the board. They stuck to their estimate and they got the job done within the time they said they would. They started on the day they said they were going to start. There was nothing negative. I would definitely consider having them back again. In fact we are thinking of having some inside work. I don't have anything to compare their price with. The job was more than I thought it was going to be. They use real high quality paint and they were just so thorough. They took down the down spouting and sanded it of all things. Everything got several coats of paints and it was just really well covered. We had a really bad job done several years ago and it was worth it to pay more. It was expensive. I would recommend them to anybody.

Couldn't have been better, from original estimate to job completion. Everyone was very friendly, professional and talented. They were careful to cover our swimming pool to keep the paint chips out and cleaned up the area every day. The finished project is beautiful.

Needed to pressure wash old/sand off old peeling paint, then applied two coats of paint by roller/brush. In addtion prepared and painted wooded eves on our home, doing some repair of water damage. Also color matched, repaired and painted a few cracks on stucco.
