Overeducated Painters

He not only pointed out everything that he saw wrong with our 60-year-old home, but insulted the small carpentry jobs that I did myself in the house. Not a good means of ingratiating himself to gain more jobs

Over Educated painted the inside of my lower level including, sun room kitchen, living room, den and two foyers and hallways. Work was very professional and very well done.

They were on time and very respectful

Albert and his crew are fantastic. We have used them several times for interior painting.

Another review advises, "Buyer Beware." Our advice: DON'T BUY.

Albert was great- came out and gave an incredibly detailed quote which allowed me to make smart choices to align to my budget. His team of painters worked long hours and were incredibly good about details and trim. they finished a difficult job in a week and made my move that much more successful

Very well. Crew are hard workers and very polite. Only thing I suggest, they wear shoe covers as they did track dirt & leaves on my light carpet.

The team of painters were here for seven or eight days and worked diligently every day. They took their time, prepped everything well and did it right. We loved Rogelio who was in charge of the crew. He was very courteous and professional. He also really knew his stuff and corrected some of the caulking mistakes the french door installer had made. We have more windows to repalce and we will definitely call on Overeducated Painters to paint them. Our $6,000 cost of service includes the high end paint we chose.

They did a good job. They did have to come back to fix some paint behind the shutters, a minor problem, but they were very responsive and came out on short notice. The price was good.

Excellent experience!! Albert and his crew were incredibly professional. Matter of fact we were able to leave the crew in our house while we stepped away. Every crew member is completely trustworthy and they were great with our pets. Albert went through every line item of the estimate and provided us advice to help us fit our budget. Really happy with the final product. We will be using them again to paint the outside of our house next!

Albert is very friendly and responsive. He did everything he could to work in our budget, and he gave us honest advice, even if it didn't help his bottom line.

We had a tight deadline and Albert McDonald quickly assessed the space and provided a cost estimate. Two days later, he and his crew were fast at work painting the entire inside of the loft. They tackled a 40-foot wall with ease and did an excellent job painting the kitchen cabinets. He could have said no to our insane deadline, but instead he brought forth his best work with friendliness and professionalism. I would definitely hire him again.

Set an appointment for 3 days in the future for an estimate. I stayed home for the morning waiting, and they were a no-show (and no call).

Overall, a great experience. Straightforward estimate. Good communication when we ran into any problems. Very professional. Punctual and responsive.

They did a great job. Albert is very up front about cost, and suggested options to reduce the cost. In addition, he made a great suggestion to install crown molding while having this work done... which we decided to do at a very reasonable price. The crown and baseboard trim was hand painted and smooth as glass. This work was performed a several years ago and it still looks fresh, and we haven't and any problems with cracking caulk or paint.

They had to finish the job in three days because I was moving and they committed to do that. They gave me an estimate and he said that they would get the job done. They did not finish in three days, they painted the front porch the wrong color. I definitely would not recommend them. I am very unhappy with this work.

Albert responding quickly to our call, provided a detailed estimate and his team was able to start the project immediately. They took their time to complete the job right since our siding required alot more chaulking than expected. Carpenter worked with us to make any corrections. Overall, I would highly recommend this company and would use them again.

He came out, gave a great estimate and did the work. He did a teriffic job! They cleaned up very well and the job was extremely professional. There are some metal railings on my porch that previous painters did not do a great job on. He sanded it down, repainted it, and it looks great! It looks absolutely teriffic! I am a busy person and they disrupted me very, very little and I appreciated that.I am very happy with their services.

Could not finish work because had to nail 2x4s in brand new roof.

We were replacing the leaky roof and wanted to coordinate the painters to paint over the damaged interior walls. We planned on vacating our home for 5 days. We found Overeducated Painters initially from a google search. We scheduled an estimate. I was away at work but spoke with him over the phone before he arrived. We discussed what I was looking for and he met my wife at the house. Within a day he emailed me a quote and a week later I called him to schedule his services to coincide with the roofers. As the days moved closer to the start date, the set start date was slightly changing due to the fact that the roofers were tearing out the skylights and installing the studs for the painters to install the drywall. Albert was fine with this because his painters were still working on their last job and couldn't start on Monday anyway. I finalize the skylight job with the roofers by Tuesday and informed Albert he could bring his crew in any time after Tuesday. Albert wasn't able to bring in his crew until late Thursday afternoon. They completed their job by Friday Pros: The quality of work was excellent. The price was on par with most other painters. Emailed quote was nice Cons: Communication issue between requested services and what was performed. Only 1 Crew The issues I had was the quote didn't reflect what I explained to Albert. Perhaps there was some communication issue. I blame myself and Overeducated Painters. The quote was to include the drywall, ceiling color to match the walls and the paint. After the fact, the drywall was additional charge, the ceiling paint was standard white and the paint was additional to the quote. If you look carefully on the quote, it says labor only. I would assume you would want to quote a job accurately with the cost of paint in it. The other 3 painting companies did. With only a limited crew available, I had to move my family back into the house a couple days later. If you're the type who's on a schedule, this can play havoc on your timeline. I do not recommend this company. If you are going to use Overeducated painters, I recommend you have a detailed statement of work and clear expecatation written out.

Work was done on time and with detail attention.

Overall, the experience was very good. I think they handled everything professionally; timely, and provided good quality. Their price was competitive. I was very happy with their services. In fact, I'm getting ready to use them for a second property.

It went ok, no worse or better than your typical painters. I felt compelled to write this review because I was led to believe that they were the BEST painters ever, and they're just not all that. In fact, when getting the estimate, the owner made fun of the painting job that previously-used painters had done, and remarked how his guys would do such a better job. Well, I never saw the owner again, he certainly wasn't on the job site while the work was being done and didn't ever see the work after it was completed, so I'm not sure how he "knows" what a great job his guys do. And his estimate was off - we ended up paying more than what we were led to believe it would cost. His estimate had them painting only a fraction of the number of doors that needed to be painted (i.e. were in the areas that were being painted.) and somehow I missed it. If I needed painting work done again I would probably not get an estimate from them but if I did, I would know that the job that they would do would be pretty typical (I needed to point out a number of places that they missed and they don't do a good enough job protecting things, in my case newly stained stair rails) and I would judge the cost accordingly.

Work went well with good communication and scheduling. Daily and job end clean up was good. Bo was very helpful with color suggestions and selection. Will have them back for phase 2 of our remodel.

I asked Albert to give me a quote. He was knowledgeable, helpful and I really appreciated the fact that his quote was done as a spreadsheet. It made it very easy to play with the numbers. I honestly believed that he would do what he said he would and that it would be excellent work. However, his was the highest of three quotes I got, so I'm going with another painter for now. I wouldn't hesitate to consider him again.
