John, Tenley, and Steve ("The Team") truly exceeded our expectations in several ways: 1. The work itself was impeccable with lots of tricky trim and paint touch up work to match existing colors and sheens throughout house. They also did some wallpaper removal and minor exterior painting of stair rails. The end results, in all cases, were seamless. 2. The Team was always cheerful and amenable to feedback and additional work which usually required additional time and effort to get done. Never any pushback...just a great attitude to get it done. Conducted a thorough walk thru on the last day to make sure nothing got missed. It was really cool to see the Owners actually do the work and not delegate the job to some crew with little oversight. Everything they said they'd do, they did. You can't ask for more. 3. The Team was always very professional and respectful in my home. Never an issue over three and half days sharing the house with them as they diligently worked the job while leaving the home neat and tidy at the conclusion of each work day. This is how you stay in business 30 years! They have a well-deserved reputation in Boise and it's easy to see why. I will have have them, and only them, back when I have additional painting needs in the future.

Caldwell Brothers was fantastic to work with beginning with our initial contact. John came out the morning after I called to look at the home and get us an estimate. From the day prep work began to the final cleanup they were on time, friendly and efficient. John made a recommendation on a new color for our front door which turned out beautifully. They even went above and beyond by completing some minor trim work around a newly installed vent prior to painting. I can't believe how great our home looks. My husband and I are so pleased at how quickly and professionally they got the job done and will absolutely recommend them to our friends, family and co-workers.

I was extremely pleased with the quality and professionalism of Caldwell Brothers. They worked with my remodel schedule, staying in touch with me and keeping space open in their schedule until I had a firm date for them to start painting. Their bid was also the most complete and informative among the painters I contacted and their price was very reasonable. As with most projects, I encountered an unexpected issue during my remodel that required extra painting work beyond the scope of the original painting bid. Caldwell Brothers was very gracious in helping me to figure out a cost-effective way to handle the additional work. Several neighbors have commented on the quality of their workmanship and asked for contact information so they can schedule painting. I will absolutely call Caldwell Brothers again for future projects.

The crew was on time every time. The job was done in 2 days and looks fantastic. It's now a year later and we're just as happy today as when they completed the job. A great team, a great price, great company. Very happy.
Description of Work: We wanted to update the exterior paint of our house and had read great reviews about Caldwell Bros. We contacted them and they get back to us immediately. We worked with John T and he was prompt, helpful and courteous. He helped us pick out colors after a consultation, advised us on which colors would bring out the rock columns in the front of our house but also gave us the option of color matching a home we loved a few subdivisions over. We love the new colors and it really looks amazing.

Really happy with these guys! I've hired a lot of contractors in the past year, and Caldwell Bros was the easiest to deal with and most professional by far. They went over all the details with me, matched the paint perfectly, did thorough prep work and charged exactly what they said it would cost. The garage, decks and fence look great!

From the first phone call to request a bid to the follow up visit after the job was completed, Caldwell Bros. Exceeded our expectations. John helped us with color placement and gave great advice on any issues that came up. His 26 years of experience shows in the quality of work that he does. The job was finished on time at the agreed price. Our house has never looked so good! We will definitely use Caldwell Bros again and will refer them to all our friends and family.

I coordinated with John before the paining began, and while I had already picked up some of the paint, he handled all the changes. They were completely professional, arriving on time, did an outstanding job, and left my home so clean, no one would have ever guessed that there were painters there earlier. All the paint cans were labeled, and incorporated with my previous paint. The job was done perfectly, and I couldn't have asked for more. Will certainly be using them in the future!

Everything went great. I had a short timeframe when the painting had to be accomplished. We closed on our new home on August 25th and moved in on August 27th. With cooperation from the previous owners, Caldwell Brothers were able to complete all the painting referenced above within a 3 day window. Service and accommodation of this magnitude is seldom experienced today, at least from my experiences.
Description of Work: I have used Caldwell Brothers Painting Contractors since moving to Boise in 1992. They guarantee their work and use the best product/paint available at the time of service. Over the years, Caldwell Brothers have painted the exterior of our home twice and various indoor rooms, as well. The attention to detail is second to none, the estimates are free and John is great about discussing paint options, colors, and the rationale for how and why he preps for the various jobs performed. Recently, my wife and I moved and had Caldwell brothers epoxy our garage floor and paint the walls and ceiling of the garage, too. The garage is 1250 sqft. They also painted indoors - including the following rooms: pantry, master closet, bedroom, and formal dining room. All the garage painting, including epoxy floor, and all indoor painting referenced above cost $3108. John, submitted a bid to paint the outside of my 5000 sqft stucco home, which includes caulking, prep, exterior doors, soffits, etc. The bid was for $3478 - very reasonable for the high quality of work and clean-up. John and his wife Tenley are the epitome of professional and a pleasure to work with. They're the only paint contractors I call when indoor or outdoor painting is the job at hand.

They did a fabulous job. They had to do a lot of prep work and did a great job with that. In addition to walls and a 2 story entryway they also did kitchen cabinets. John was so helpful and I appreciate all his work.

The Caldwell Brother's came to our house and gave us a estimate to paint the exterior of our house. Since it was a duplex, we also asked him to give us a bid for both houses. They came to our house within a business day, thoroughly looked at the entire exterior, pointed out what needed to be done, and explained all the details of the job. We had asked three other companies to give us a bid for the same job, the Caldwell Brothers were the most friendly, thorough, professional, and were very competitive in pricing. We wanted to change the colors of the house but were unsure what it would look like. They came to the house and painted a few areas as samples to make sure we were happy with the new color scheme. They began the job on the date we had agreed and finished in a timely manner. At all times they were professional and friendly, they answered all of our questions, and addessed all of our concerns. We would highly recommend the Caldwell Brother's for any job.

They told us exactly what the price would be and even though they had to do extra prep work (caulking above windows that were never caulked) , they stuck to their original price. They told us when they would power wash the house and did it when they said they would. They showed up early to prep and paint the house on the day they said they would. They completed the job in one day and did an excellent job. They were all so nice and did a great job. We highly recommend them. We will definitely use them again.eroner

Caldwell Painting did a great job! The bid was reasonable and timely. They communicated well with email. I had the paint colors chosen, but they were very informed and supportive. They used a good quality Sherwin Williams paint. They were amazingly fast - and the house looks beautiful! They were done in two and half days and then gave me two days to look for any misses. Then they were back as promised and touched up the few missing spots. Everything is tidy and I am very very pleased with my "new" home! Thanks John and crew!

The company gave us a no nonsense all inclusive firm bid for all the painting and supplies in the summer of 2013. We live in snow country so it was difficult to pinpoint when they could start work in the spring of 2014. When the weather broke enough to permit exterior painting one of the owners came up to McCall from Boise where the company is headquartered and power washed all 3 buildings. A few days later all 3 owners showed up and began painting the buildings, including all of the trim. They worked very hard and didn't waste any time and finished the painting in 3 1/2 days ! They were on time each day and put in long hours. They cleaned up each evening after work. There was no mess , no fuss, no fooling around. They were here to work and work they did. When they were finished they cleaned up their work areas and left us with 3 beautifully painted buildings on our property. They were friendly, professional and just plain nice people. We would hire them again without question. Top flight folks ! We recommend them highly. They even saved our tomato plant that we had forgotten to uncover. If it wasn't for them noticing it, the plant would have fried. We really think that was nice. Terry and Nancy, McCall , Idaho
Description of Work: The provider painted the exteriors of our house, our river cabin and our huge garage/shop on our property in McCall, Idaho. They also painted the steel roof on the house. Caldwell Brothers is a family owned and operated painting contractor. The owners are wonderful people and very hard workers. It was the owners themselves who painted our buildings.

We used Caldwell Brothers to paint our rental property last fall and were very pleased with the job. We hired them again to paint our house. We didn't have an exact paint for them, but had found a house in town who's color we wanted to match. John color matched the house perfectly. We went from white to sage green with white trim and a crimson front door. Absolutely gorgeous.

John and his partner did a fine job. The home was a foreclosure property, so we wanted the entire interior changed from all-white to a color on the walls and ceilings, with a darker color on the baseboards and doors. They unhung all doors and took off all hardware; everything was sprayed twice and the job went as planned, on budget and on time. As part of our contract, they came back after the carpeting was installed and performed their touch-ups along with door re-installations. The company was professional and easy to work with; no complaints. Will certainly call them for the next property.

I could not have been more pleased with the paint job done in my home by the Caldwell Brothers. I received 4 estimates in total and the one received by the Caldwell Brothers was not only the most competitive but the most thorough as well. John is the consummate professional and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. He and his staff are very meticulous. I was struck by the fact that when John and his staff entered my home he introduced every who would be in my home that day working- an easy step that is often overlooked. All of the furniture was moved out of the way, covered and moved back in to place. Aside from my freshly painted walls, I couldn't even tell they were there. They care about their customers and it shows. I've had 4 homes painted now and this by far was the best experience I ever had. Thank you Caldwell Brothers!

When I asked for a bid, Caldwell Brothers were very prompt in going to the house, surveying and providing me a complete written estimate of their services. They gave me a color wheel to choose from and were great about offering suggestions for paint colors. Once I selected a timeframe to have the house painted, they worked with my schedule. I have a tenant in the house, so we also had to work around her schedule. Caldwell Brothers were very considerate of the tenant and accommodating of her availability. They prepped the first day, taking down lattice, filling holes from nails and power washed the house. On the second day they painted the entire house, fascia and trim (along with the garden shed too). The house looks beautiful and now stands out as one of the nicest looking ones in the neighborhood. We are going to have them paint our primary house next year as well as our kitchen cabinets.

They were very prompt and professional all the way through. They really went the extra mile to make sure that we were their #1 concern. They did an excellent job of prep work, as well as the painting itself. They showed up right on time and stayed until the work day was done, (approx 8-9 hours). This covered the span of 2-3 days. They were very thorough in making sure that their mess was cleaned up, what little there was, and made sure that no paint was left anywhere it wasn't supposed to be. I can't say enough about their professionalism and care. I would HIGHLY recommend Caldwell Brothers to ANYONE looking to have their homes exterior, interior or BOTH repainted!
Description of Work: They did ALL the prep work for an exterior and partial interior paint job. We had a 3 bay garage + a 2400 square ft home, that was completely repainted/trimmed, etc., plus a main bathroom that we had them paint as well.

Having had poor experiences in the past, I only use Angie's List to hire contractors. I called 5 on the list. Caldwell Brothers had the most professional bid. They were prompt to come out, listened to my needs and I had a bid that night. Due to the time of the year, October, they called me regularly to keep me abreast with weather and where I was on their list. Out of the 4 bids, Caldwell Brothers was the lowest. When they arrived, John did the painting....When you hire Caldwell Brothers you don't get a crew of inexperienced painters, you get the person with 24 plus years of experience. My siding is smooth James Hardy siding with Sherwin Williams lifetime warranty paint. It takes a very knowledgable and experienced painter to get this paint to look perefect on my siding. And it turned out perfect! John is a perfectionist and takes great pride in his work. He is the most concerned about the client and it showed in every way. My job was a 2 day job and they left the job perfect on day 1 and day 2, as if no one had been on the property. They were the most curtious, clean, professional contractors I have ever hired. They were on time, thorough with caulking, the masking around my windows was also perfect, so the paint left perfect seems ubutting all of my window trim. I will hire them when I am ready to do my trim and would only recommend them to anyone who needs painting.

It's one of the best experiences we've had with contractors, and we've been working with several over the last month. John made the process simple, easy, and worry free. The house looks amazing. In addition to his excellent work, John was on time and easy to get a hold of; his price was reasonable (lower than a few other bids we received); he was personable and professional. The project was completed when he said it would be and it was within the estimate he gave us. He also cleaned up when he was done. If I'd know it was going to be this easy / painless to get the house painted, we would have done it years ago.

Our experience with Caldwell Brothers was wonderful from start to finish. John arrived on time for the initial meeting. He had me explain exactly what my concerns were and what we needed to have done. I received a very professional bid for the cost of the work the very next day. We agreed on a start date and went forward from there. I always received a call letting me know when they would be arriving. If they were delayed I received a call informing me of that as well. The work was finished in 2 days. John and his assistant worked very hard and answered any questions I had for them. While I know we were not a large and lucrative job for them we were always treated as valued clients. My husband told me that in his opinion Caldwell Brothers are the best painters we have ever had and I completely agree! We will definitely use them again and will recommend them to anyone who asks.
