A++ EXCELLENT! Wow! Walter was an excellent communicator.. prompt, respectful, and so detail oriented! One of his son's did the job, as Walter and I agreed upon. I was so impressed! $299 for 8 hours of work and wow, I thought it would only be my large mater, bathroom and the stairwell to the master. He was wrapping up and gave us an update that if we wanted to purchase paint for another room he would do that. What a guy, giving us a half hour warning to think up another room and get the paint, oh DISCOUNTED paint at that. They allowed us to use their discount at the paint store. He gave us every minute of that 8 hours. WOW! My ceilings were boarded with three different colors of paint, he cleaned it all up, completely fixing the work of the previous owners. Hire these guys! you will not regret it, my walls look awesome! NOTE: first picture is the ceiling BEFORE for reference

Superbly. Everything went exactly as promised. Walter did the job with one of his sons in one day. All edges and borders are sharp and crisp. Very clean work. Every paint chip was removed. The house looks great. These guys are pros with a lot of experience. I will be calling Walter again.

I love working in Elmwood park nice homes great people always a good experience but the one thing that pushes Elmwood park over the top is johnnies beef on north. it, like Elmwood park, has a lot of character and the sandwiches would be a good value at twice the price. also working on this house reminds me of being on a golf course. which takes away my concentration and focus because golf courses have this magical draw to me. which explains why I missed a couple spots . walter

Never did. Was going to purchase one of the deals. Wish I had read the F reviews and especially his responses to them. I asked him for pricing on this work. He was set to come out on a Thursday and then that didn't work for him so it was Saturday. He called Saturday and said it was too far for him could we measure and send him pictures. I spent the time doing that and sent to.him within a week. Had to text a few times but I Got a text from him that he had a few days available he would get back to me. I texted him after that, never have heard back. He has no follow up and is clearly too busy to want the work and should have said so because now a month later I'm starting from scratch.

as usual this one doesn't tell the whole story. . talked to the husband told him I couldn't make it out there . and that if he wanted an estimate quickly he could send pictures back and he said he would right away didn't here from them for quite sometime, until I received some pictures that did not tell the story of the project along with no specific explanation of what needed to be done in the pictures . left a message or two . asking for more info , they went unanswered, so I figured the lead went cold. its a lie that I said it was to far to go. I clearly told them that my schedual didn't allow for the 2 and a half hours of turnaround time do to family obligations. its a lie that we had no followup because she even mentions a few times that I got back to them but my last 2 messages to them received no response. glad they went a different direction. grade for telling the whole story F grade for telling the truth F overall customer grade F

The project was delayed passed the initial time frame provided by Angie's List, but this gentleman honored the payment made! Wonderfully nice and respectful. The young man that was sent to do the work was thoughtful and kind, a really hard worker and genuinely proud of his employer. I was very pleased with the paint job and felt they went over and above for the customer. I was consulted before things were done in a very considerate manner. I have even recommended them to friends! Grateful to Angie's List for this find!!!

Called the number from Angie's list around noon, the guy who answered sounded like I just woke him up. He didn't answer using he's company name so I was unsure if I even called the right number. When I asked him how soon the work could be started he said 2 weeks, which is fine but I needed someone sooner so I told him thank you but we are looking to have work done sooner than that. I thanked him again and he hung up on me...so rude!

They sent a young man named Jason. This kid was really talented. He is a true artist. He did the best painting out of any painting I've ever seen. He was fast. We painted an entire basement, which was huge with multiple rooms and a bathroom, within 8 hours. I was with him, I was helping to prep a little bit and we knocked the whole thing out in 8 hours for $299. The job he did was impeccable. There's no wiggly lines. It was excellent. The best painter I've ever had and I've probably had 20 painters in my life. They came out within a week of me scheduling it. They were very prompt. I would definitely use him again and I would recommend him to everybody.

This is the first time during my years of service on Angie's List in which I had to give less than a satisfactory review. I was really looking forward to this company coming to my home to paint, however, scheduling was a nightmare. I think this company is very busy and don't have the time to perform the services. This is completely ok, just let the customer know, and/or issue a refund. I could not get the owner to schedule a set date to do the painting. I work full time, taking time off of work for house repairs, requires me to know in advance when they are coming. No one was willing to give me a set date. On Thursday June 8th after multiple messages, I was told that a day for painting will be scheduled and I would be contacted soon. I never heard back from anyone. I contacted Angie's List for a refund and scheduled with another company.

as usual the customer tells about half the story. we called and tried to schedual this painting at least five times months ago,. some short notice some long in advance. some via text some talking directly. after purchasing this deal I believe 5 or 6 months ago , all of a sudden its , I hav to hav it done immediately. grade for telling the whole story F grade for being patient and communicating F and F . hope she has good luck with her project but I am glad she went a different direction

We used these guys once in the past and the painter did a fine job. However this time around it was impossible to schedule a day for the "1 full day" painter and the owner went non-responsive on us. This is frustrating especially since he asked for dates a MONTH in advance and then still never came around to confirm or even respond. We ended up getting an A-list deal refund. Not sure I'd use them again given we can't be much more flexible than one month out and multiple attempts to schedule.

weather plays a big part of organizing jobs. sometimes bargain deals have to be moved around due to painter availability weather and who can work on what day and a lot of other factors. one of the problems that go along with having the highest possible rating for 12 straight years is that everyone wants your services. and unfortuneatly we cant give day to day updates to every deal. glad u moved on and found somebody who was more available. good luck with your project. walter
