Professional and trustworthy, Joe Tamborra is a painter we would easily refer to our friends and neighbors. He painted both the exterior of our home and several interior rooms, including ceilings and cabinetry. We have been more than pleased with his work and found him to be reasonable in his pricing and reliable in his scheduling. His work is topnotch!

Joe and his team are extremely professional and did a great job. My house looks great and I am more than satisfied. Joe and his crew were on time and did what he said they would. No problems at all. I would highly recommend Joe Tambour Painting Co and I would use him again.

We needed to get our house ready sale as soon as possible due to a sudden relocation because of our job. Joe Tamborra was recommended to us by a friend who had also used their service. We were very pleased with the service they provided. Friendly, trustworthy, and reasonable prices. Tyler, his foreman, made sure any concerns we had about the timeline was on the top priority list along with the best quality painting. Highly suggest Joe for all your painting needs!

After speaking to Joe several times about our job my husband I decided to hire him. He asked to meet at the house to give him 1/2 down and begin powerwashing. I met him at the house, my husband was on his way. The moment I was about to sign the contract and write the check he sold it to Phil Ogden (oddly, one of his reviewers?). Although Joe remained involved from the side lines (ie; when Phil tried charging me $1800 more, Joe took care of it), when the work started to come out poorly and I paid for work that had not been completed, Joe did not want anything to do with it. Bottom Line: If you hire Joe, make sure that he does not sell in the moment you sign the contract.

Response from JOE TAMBORRA PAINTING CO.
I understand that you are unhappy with my referral to Phil Ogden and his Painting company. It was not hidden from you that Ogden would be your Contractor. You knew that you were signing a Contract with Ogden, and you even issued all payments in Ogden's name. I did not perform any work at your property. Your grievance is with Phil Ogden, NOT Joe Tamborra Painting Co. Perhaps this review would be better placed on his profile not mine, as I have done you no harm!

Joe and his team have painted almost all of my interior (seven rooms and two-and-a-half baths) walls and ceilings in stages over the previous two years. They are meticulous, honest, efficient, and friendly professionals. Joe provided me fair estimates, on-the-mark timelines, and courteous service. I enthusiastically recommend his work.

He is very honest. He comes when he says he's gonna come. And if he is coming late, he will inform. I've had other estimates and they were never as good as his.

Polite and punctual workers. However the work was messy and sloppy. Workers did not come equipped with everything they needed. Several areas had to be repainted by us.

So sorry, [Member Name Removed] that you were dissatisfied with the work performed at your home. I assume this was the only job we ever did for you because I do not remember you from your comments here and your name. We do so many jobs each year, it is hard to remember all the people we work for.

Terrible work, they got paint on everything. Do not show up when promised and constantly have excuses. They got paint all over our brand new (2 weeks old) downspouts. Reluctantly finished the job complaining all the time, which took 5 weeks to complete. Never again will I use Tamborra painting.

So sorry [Member Name Removed] you were unhappy with all the hard work we put into painting your home. I do not agree that it was terrible work and we got paint all over everything. I believe we fulfilled our obligation to you and finished by the deadline we agreed upon when undertaking your job. As far as reluctantly finishing; you were the one reluctant about letting me finish the work; and if there were any complaints spoken of; it was about the poor treatment we received when you became adversarial. Concerning paint that got on your new down spouts; I accepted the responsibility that we did; and agreed to repaint them or take money off your bill. You accepted a reduction in price, and I assumed that was satisfactory. Joe T.

The painter did a fairly good job however we had to call him a couple of times as his workers did not show up on some of the days they were suppose to be here and the owner was out of town so we had to wait. But all in all,it was a decent job for what we paid for. He was the cheapest contractor that was available at the time. They rinsed their paint buckets on our black top driveway.
