They did a great job. Chris was able to hang the dining room botanical print wall paper quickly, neatly and efficiently. The striped wallpaper I selected for the bathroom turned out to be a bad choice on my part as the walls are all crooked in the bathroom. Chris had to spend a lot of time trying to get it straight.
Description of Work: Two projects: 1. We needed a dining room wallpapered above a chair rail. 2. In a bathroom, wallpaper removed and then new wall paper applied; the ceiling needed nail pops dealt with and a fresh coat of paint.

This job could not have gone better. We are so pleased with the results. From the very beginning when Chris came to evaluate the work to be done, right up to today when the last bit of touching up was finished, it has been a real pleasure to have Tolbert and Sons in our home. Avery and Kevin were real pros, arriving on time, going right to work, and giving us great service while they treated our house with great care. Anything we asked of Chris and his team was met with a smile, and a "we're here for you" attitude. Thanks so much, guys. You are the best. Five stars to every one of you.

The garage turned out well. There were a few things done that was not perfect. They painted over some light bulbs and covers. The basement turned out great as well. There were several guys that came out and completed the project (including a ridiculous amount of nail pops) in just 3 days. This was the quaility of work I expected for the main 2 floors. The interior was another story. I was told when I received the bid that it would be a project that was squeezed in since they were very booked. Price was lower than the competitors so we hired. The company sent out 1 man to conduct the job. He was all over the place, missed spots and I was getting very stressed out. He fixed some nail pops but didn’t complete all of them. Additionally we would come home and see furniture and new carpet had not been covered up. Brush lines are still visable in spots along with paint runs. The home was empty and without furniture for 1 month. They were unable to complete the job while it was empty. The company had to come out after the pervious sub contractor was complete to try and fix and better the quality of the final product. Additionally, not everything was as it should be when final payment was made. There are stilll definite brush marks and color differences along all the corners and seems. Due to furniture being delivered that was too heavy to move, I will have to ask them to come out when we move again to see if they can finish some spots. The crew that came out to fix the job did well but there was so much space to cover they didn’t get everything. We are still noticing spots along the home that weren’t caught.

As always, Chris and his team did a superb job. My garage is beautiful! Chris and his team were professional, on time, cleaned up each day, honest and reliable. Chris charges fair prices and he is responsive to all inquiries and/or concerns. I will be using Tolbert and Sons for future projects.

Excellent. Very happy with the work that was done. We had Avery doing the paint for the ceiling, walls and trim work. Avery did a terrific job. Nice guy and very personable. He paid attention to detail and made sure all furniture was covered. At end of day everything was cleaned up. Chris came in and looked everything over and asked if we were pleased with the work. We would definitely give Chris and his crew a 5 star rating. Thank You so much

Excellent. They moved everything, sanded and prepped all surfaces and applied two coats of paint. When we discussed the job I forgot to ask him to paint the front door inside and outside so it wasn’t in the contract. I offered to pay extra, Chris said don’t worry about it and even bought the paint for the exterior of the door! The end result is a truly custom paint job that looks wonderful.

Had work done approx 8 months ago. Power wash first. Killed several expensive plants. Missed some areas when painting. Asked him to use exterior semi-gloss and he used flat. Now paint is peeling off after less than a year application......Cheap unnamed paint brand, poorly prepped resulted in poor result.

Every aspect was professionally handled. I was very satisfied with their work. Chris was very attentive to detains and made sure that all aspects were to my complete satisfaction. Earnie was one of a kind worker who is very experienced and hard working. I would definitely recommend their company and would consider using their company for my future painting projects.
Description of Work: They sealed and painted with epoxy my entire basement floor. Moving entire basement contents from side to side. They also removed and replaced the stairs after sealing and applying epoxy to a few sections of y cinder block walls. Painted almost all of my upstairs interior of my house. They removed wallpaper from the walls if two bedrooms and prepared the walls before painting. They moved furniture in the rooms before painting and replaced the furniture when finished.

This is the second time I have used Tolbert & Sons and, once again, I was completely pleased with their work. Chris is honest, gives fair estimates, keeps his word, is patient, and his crew has the same values as Chris. Their work is first rate--absolutely beautiful! Their prep and paint quality are outstanding, as well. Chris and his team are pleasant, respectful, cause the absolute minimum of disruption, and they clean up at the end of each day. Their goal is to have a happy client--and they succeed!. When I was at work and when I was out of town, I had no worries at all about having Tolbert & Sons painters in my house. I will definitely use them again!

Tolbert and Sons were very courteous, professional and punctual. I can't tell you how important it is to have at least two of these qualities today. I'm a very picky person and sometimes you have to have the patience of Job to deal with me. Trust me, they have patience! Much to my satisfaction, I was very pleased with the outcome. My bedroom walls look like a million bucks without being taken to the bank! I have a tray ceiling, which was painted white and the cut between the color of the walls and the ceiling was so precise it was ridiculous. No taping or small brush, a 3 inch BRUSH! I know. They did such a good job now I can't stand the other two bedrooms. Well... I guess I'll have to hire them again; and I will in a heartbeat. HIRE THEM. You won't be disappointed.

The 2 gentleman, his staff; did most of the work. They covered everything with plastic. I had moved my furniture out of my bedroom. I was very pleased that the dust was limited. They came each day early. They took very little time off, and worked 8-4 pm. They did come 1 Saturday to do some work. When they were finished, they made sure I had a pathway in my house that was uncovered to walk around. I had a very good rapor with the staff (a father & son team). The owner, Chris kept in touch by phone and stopped by to make sure things were done the way he wanted. I was very pleased with the work they did!
Description of Work: They painted my ceilings and 4 rooms and my stairwell and my small bathroom. They also did some repair work on the cracks in the ceilings.
