We scheduled the job, and Rich followed up with paint color choices. He called before the scheduled date to see if I had any questions, and to make sure we were ready for them to come.
On the first day, they pressure washed the house. We discovered a couple of trouble spots where the wood was rotten, and Rich quickly talked to us to see what our options were. He helped us to get a carpenter that came that same day to look at the problem and was able to start the work the next day, so that the job could be finished before the painters were done.
For the next three days, Rich worked along with his crew. They were very professional, thorough, attentive to detail, and a pleasure to work with. Rich also offered some suggestions on the color for the columns, and they came out great! He asked for feedback as the work took place to make sure we were happy, and to see if we had any questions or concerns.
Again, Rich and his crew were great, and the kind of people you want working around your house.
They went the extra mile to make sure we were very satisfied with the end result. On the last day, Rich did a walk-through with me around the whole house and they took care of the few issues we found.
Our house looks absolutely great, and we would definitely recommend this company. I would also like to nominate them for the
Page of Happiness.
"You were a joy to work with. We communicated every step of the way which culminated in a near flawless job. Whenever I could visually give you a choice between two colors I did-----which you really appreciated. I explained:just because a color scheme was done in your neighborhood it did not make it visually correct.Often a builder will do something color wise and everyone will continue to follow that" flawed " thinking ------without realizing there is a "better" look. My pet peeve are soffits----they should normally be painted the body color (there are exceptions) to hide or camoflage a functional item that has no architectual appeal. You took much of my advice and were very happy with the results. Thank you again for allowing me to paint your home!"
"Thank you for picking CCI to paint your home. You were extremely receptive to my color input and my suggestions on where those colors should go. We made your home look far more modern using a minimum of colors.It shows far younger than it's true age. You were happy and so was I! Enjoy the "newness" for years to come. Keep on riding your road bike and I will do the same on my mountain bike at Alifia!"
They arrived on time for the initial pressure wash (about half a day) and on the following two full days for prep and painting. They worked around my last-minute changes to woodwork, electrical, vents and plumbing and my disruption of some of their masking efforts without compaint. They also pointed out an area where soffit needed re-nailing and one screen door that should not be repainted since it already had a near-new finish that matched the trim color. As expected, applying a uniform color brought out the visual flaws in some of my earlier patchwork, but again no complaints as I would patch various spots and they followed up with another coat. We went around the house several times, but the end result was stucco where you can not tell where the holes had been, much smoother looking eaves and soffit, and an overall cleaner, more appealing look to the entire house. They hand painted most of the trim, and Rich repainted the house numbers in black. At the end, they vacuumed up the debris and left all of the remaining paint with me.
"Your triplex was a bit of a challenge due to it's age. I felt as though you were part of our crew since you worked beside us the entire time we were there! We were all working for the same result and I think between us all you got an almost new building at the completion of the job. You were a pleasure to work beside and I truly appreciate you allowing CCI to paint your home."
Like most of you on Angie's List, you read the review's and select a few of the best candidates for an estimate. Again, like many of you I selected CCI. You do pay a premium for his service, but you get what you pay for. QUALITY! What a great call on my part! Getting your house painted is an investment and you should want it done correctly! Call Rich. You will not be disappointed! Rich thanks for the BEST experience a consumer can have.

"Thank you for allowing me to paint your home AND taking the time to write such a flattering report! I truly work hard at "being a big part of the solution and not part of the problem" I strive for CCI to do meticulous work, using absolutely the best products,in an efficient time frame while being as unobtrusive as possible. As a home owner I want a contractor to do exactly what I said above-----on my home. The bottom line is we all like to see a contractor arrive but we are even happier when they leave-----with the job done correctly. We did exactly that for you and,again,we truly appreciated the opportunity!"
"Thank you for your patience and allowing CCI to paint your home.You had MANY choices and we were happy you choose us. Like you,I truly loved the color scheme we painted your home. You absolutely gave me one of the best compliments I've ever gotten from a client! You told me this was the first time you : "didn't have to listen to your husband constantly complain about the contractor working on your home.He was happy with everything you guys did." You were both a pleasure to work for and hope you enjoy your colors for many years to come. Happy New Year!!"
The work started right on time and went well. The pressure washing was done the first day and the rest of the prep and painting was completed in another three days.
Rich is not just the owner of the company but works right alongside his crew (John and Joan.) They are hard working and efficient and they function extremely well together. In addition, they are experienced, considerate, and true professionals. Rich is meticulous and attentive to detail and workmanship. He is thoughtful and responsive to questions and concerns. At the very end, he walked around the house himself, and then with me, to ensure all was good. The results exceeded my expectations. I feel like I have a beautiful, new house. In my opinion, CCI, headed by Rich Weinberg, stands above the rest in quality and I recommend this company without reservation.
"Thanks for taking the time to write such a great a report on us! You and your son were a pleasure to work with. You asked me how to make the job go as smoothly as possible for us------you then had your bushes cut back and all furniture and breakables taken out of the way.This allowed us to concentrate solely on the painting itself. We communicated by email a good part of the time which worked extremely well. You picked colors you felt would go well on your home---- after I had explained what "dictated" the color scheme for your particular home. My only caveat to you was that you would not have had the contrast between your body color and trim color I felt you wanted. You went back to your "homework", put up more color squares and came up with a much more suitable contrasting color. I appreciated you taking my gentle hints for picking your house colors.It was gratifying to see how happy you were with the final results! You mentioned the painting of your home will be the impetus for more home improvements----- on this I wish you the best of luck. We also would like to thank you for your generous holiday gifts.Definitely above and beyond... Thank you for allowing CCI to paint your home and we wish you much health, wealth, happiness and the time to enjoy them all in the coming year!"
Rich and his crew were wonderful to work with. His expertise and kindness was apparent in his very first visit and
through every call and visit. He and his crew were always punctual, caring, kind and talented. You can tell that they really love what they do does because it is reflected in their work. I would highly recommend Rich and CCI Painting to paint your home. You will be happy with the results from start to finish:) Thank you Rich!!!
I would also like to Nominate them for the Angie's list "Page of Happiness"
"It took awhile for you to get the other portions of your home completed ------before we could start our process. Our calendar date changed a few times but in the end your home was completed and with great results! I appreciate the fact that you listened to my suggestion on where the colors should go. It modernized the whole look of your home. It was great meeting you and your dog------whom I hope is getting healthy! Thank you for allowing CCI to paint your home."
"You worried about picking the "wrong" color and asked me several times if you had picked correctly. I try very hard to explain to my clients what determines the color of a home and why. I then give my clients "homework" that ultimately allows them to nail down the correct colors. I did this with you and that's why you came up with the right colors! Thanks for allowing me to paint your home!"
Rich checked in with me a week before our job was to begin to ask if we had any questions and to let us know he would indeed be starting on the date he initially gave me. I asked him if he could come by again before that so I could show him some things and ask him some more questions. He came over that afternoon and spent 45 minutes answering my questions and offering more helpful advice.
A gentleman from Rich's crew showed up on time on the first day and pressure cleaned the house. The next day, Rich and his crew showed up on time to prep the house and started painting. They completed the painting within three days, and our house looks GREAT!! These folks are true professionals. They're hard working, focused, friendly, considerate and very skilled at what they do. I couldn't have asked for a better overall experience, and therefore, I highly recommend CCI Painting.
"Thanks for the truly kind report! Your home was a Tudor style home ----- a style that is very labor intensive and difficult to do--- correctly. Once a client has a bad experience with anther painter they are wary of whomever comes next---and rightly so. We spent a lot of time talking about what the job would entail,how we would go about it and the timing of it all. You were extremely pleasant to work with which allowed us to complete the job correctly and in a timely fashion. Thank you for allowing CCI to paint your home!"
getting ready to put it on the market and need a professional job. Not
only does the house look amazing, but the warranty transfers to the
future owners. the house sold in a week. Thanks
"I'm glad you sold your home so quickly!! I told you I knew what a home inspector would look for and we addressed all those issues. This and the neutral color we decided on to appeal to the greatest number of people assured your quick sale. Our transferable warranty was icing on that (quickly) baked cake! Thank you for allowing me to paint your home and listening to my input."
"You ladies were a blast to work for. Your home and piece of property was like coming to a nature preserve every day-------absolutely beautiful and fun to work around. You knew the direction in which you wanted to go. With a slight nudge to the "correct" color ----- you all hit a home run! You took my advise as to where the colors should go and why------for this I thank you. We were all truly happy with the final product--------and that's what I'm always striving for. You said many kind things about us and we absolutely appreciate every word. Thank you for allowing me to paint your beautiful home! P.S. I really am a decent guy-----or so my wife tells me;)"
Rich came out on time, to look at our house and address our concerns. He said he and his crew could take care of it and make our house look great. He gave us ideas on how to select the best color choices for our house to make it look the way we wanted. We followed his advice and picked our colors. When the day came for them to start, they were here early and started right in working. First John came out and pressure cleaned the whole house with a mildewcide. The next day they all arrived early and began scraping all the loose paint that was not removed by the pressure washer. They rolled on a primer and a sealer on all problem areas, which was most of the walls, and then caulked the facia where needed. John did most of the scraping, priming and sealing and Joan taped off the windows, light fixtures, and anything that was not to be painted and started painting the window and door trim. Rich did the spraying of the walls and facia. After he sprayed, John and Joan would go around the house and paint the trim with a brush and do touch ups. They are a great team and work excellent together. They also painted our storm door to match the front door, which turned out really nice. The three of them were here 3 full days from about 8:oo a.m. until 5 pm each day. After they were finishedon the 3rd day, they all waked around the entire house 2-3 times to ensure everything was done. Then they walked around the house with us to ensure every concern we had, no matter what it was, was done to our satisfaction. They did not put anything away until we ere completely satisfied.
From start to finish we have never dealt with anyone that took as much pride in what they do as Rich, John and Joan. Not only do they do an excellent job painting, but Rich can give you ideas to make your house look fantastic and stand out from others ! Our house looks great and we couldn't be happier. If you need your house painted and want it to look great, call Rich at CCI Painting.
"You were an absolute pleasure to work with. You cut the plants and bushes back.You took all of your breakable pieces off the walls and generally allowed us uninhibited movement around your home------thanks! You did your "homework" by putting color swatches up on the walls of your home.I explained what made for a great looking color on a home, and why--------you trusted my explanation on the continuity of color ------and wound up with a GREAT looking house. Thank you for your patience AND for allowing CCI to do your painting!!"
"The correct yellow is a very difficult color to pick for a home! Your choices would have been too bright and ultimately made you very unhappy. With a little "show and tell" I brought to your attention a color that looked bland on the color chip but perfect on your home. You and I both loved the final product. Thank you for being open to suggestions AND allowing me to paint your home!"
This was an extremely difficult job, consisting of a 5,300 + sq ft, 2-story home, with many roof peaks & vallys, dormers, and more.
I personally followed this job very closely, and I'm not an easy person to plaese. Of the three quotes I got for this job, CCI was the highest...........but I'm satisfied no other company could have done this well.
"Your home was truly one of the more challenging projects we have done in a while.The numerous peeks,valley's and hidden sections on the roof kept me on my toes! I really enjoyed changing the color from blue to a "richer" looking beige and cream. You were a stickler for detail but extremely fair and responsive to my daily progress "chats" with you. I know you will enjoy the new color of your home. The 10 year TRANSFERABLE warranty will help you sell it more quickly!"
"You and your dog were fun to work with. You listened to my suggestions and went with them.Your home came out looking a lot more modern with much "cleaner" lines. Thank you for allowing me to paint your home!"
"I now know more about locks,the"pins" inside them, and the keys that allow them to work than I ever could have imagined!All very interesting-----and knowledge that I won't soon forget! We do a fantastic job of painting but the final "look " was up to YOUR color choices. I explained what "dictates" color and why.You listened to my reasoning---- worked on your color choices----bounced them off me, and ultimately came to a flawless color combination. You did the mental work(colors) we did the physical work----painting. Your house came out looking wonderful!Team work is a great thing! Thank you for picking us from the many painters you could have chosen from.We truly appreciate it!"
"Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to get your home ready for us to paint. You did the "homework" I had given you---- which led to great colors AND a great looking house. You were very easy to work for and even more interesting to talk to----since you had been a Green Beret! Thank you for allowing me to paint your home and the great write up. We all loved how your home came out!"
At the time we spoke with Rich, were only collecting estimates as we were not yet prepared to have the work performed. We knew we liked Rich initially but after speaking with four other painting contractors, it was confirmed that we would call him back to do the work. His estimate was in the middle of estimates we received, however, we chose him because we felt comfortable working with him and were confident in his ability to do quality work in a timely manner. Almost four months after the estimate was given, we called CCI back to schedule. We were extremely impressed with the professionalism and quality of work performed by Rich and his two crew members. They were friendly and courteous and answered all of our questions. All of them have been in the painting business for over thirty years and it shows. They removed lighting fixtures, taped everything perfectly, painted all external surfaces and fixtures to match the house and left the house in better condition than when they arrived. Rich also painted our concrete front porch at no additional charge for the labor or paint even though it was not included in the estimate. He said he wanted to house to look beautiful and could see that it needed a fresh coat of paint.
I would highly recommend CCI Painting Services to anyone that wants to work with an honest professional to paint their home. I cannot say enough good things about them. We will be calling them back to paint a family members home when the time comes.
"Ladies!!!I don't remember paying you to write such a fantastic report!Never-the-less thank you for allowing us to paint your home AND the kind words. You were both kind,considerate and very upbeat about the job we were doing.It made working at your home more like play than work! You did your homework by painting samples on your home. In doing so you got to see what the colors truly looked like "in real life". Painting color samples on your home is the wisest thing anyone could do before painting. You were both a real treat for us!"
"Your wife was very easy to work with as well as very helpful. I had a lot of questions and she answered them or got a hold of you so you could answer them. This led to your home coming out extremely well from an aesthetics point of view.More importantly, the paint we used is the only protection the "modified cardboard" siding has to withstand this brutal environment.It will truly live up to it's reputation as "SuperPaint"! Thank you for allowing us to paint your home and choosing us from the many painters you spoke to."
"It was a pleasure to work for you.Your wife was very adamant about what,where,and how she wanted the painting done.You felt she would find fault somewhere along the way with our work.You were wrong!She was tough but was extremely fair and ultimately very happy with the job we did. I have to compliment and thank you for rescuing dogs and working at the shelters as a volunteer.Being an animal lover, I have to say, it was really a blast hanging out with you and your dogs---especially the Great Dane! Thank you for the experience and allowing us to paint your home!"
"Your mom was a pistol! She was fun to work with and her input was appreciated. I'm glad your home is looking good after five years.Sherwin Williams' Super paint is what allows me to give my clients a ten year warranty. Please thank your mom for allowing me to paint her home!"
"You guys were a blast to work with! Your wife was a bit concerned about what colors should go where.We spoke in detail about your home fitting seamlessly in with your landscaping. This made her minimalistic color choices come together beautifully-----giving her peace of mind.The end result had her dancing! You were extremely helpful by trimming the bushes back,getting all the breakables off the porch, giving us access to your pool bath and allowing us cold drinks from your refrigerator on the porch. We were really sorry to leave your home!You were a joy to speak with and work for. We truly appreciated your business!"
"We are really happy you liked the "new" mid-century modern colors you picked for your home. We don't often often use retro colors on a home.We are usually trying to modernize the look of a home. You knew what you wanted and were dead on with your choice of colors. We all especially loved the green front door.Well done!! Thank you for choosing CCI Painting from the long list of painters you could have chosen!"
"Thank you for taking the time to write such a glowing report! You are correct when you say I love painting.It is very gratifying to take a home that needs some TLC and possibly a color change and make it look better than new----in only a few days. I might be a touch more expensive than the other companies because I am actually working the job with my crew ----start to finish. Not many companies have the owner (me) actually doing the work-----AND loving it! Thank you again for picking us to paint your home!"
"You've kept your home in great condition which makes our job easier.You both had a great attitude and were a pleasure to work for. Thank you for allowing CCI to paint your home!"
