The service was okay. They did a good job.
Description of Work: We used them for exterior painting. I had purchased a Big Deal from them.
The whole project took 2 days. I had water damage in the bedroom, several severe cracks from settling, and a deck that needed to be power washed and sealed. The owner came and gave me an estimate. He discussed some repairs that I had done myself and explained that I had missed a step and the repairs might not last. After checking his recommendations, I decided he was correct. We scheduled a date for the jobs. He and his employee showed up on time and did great work. I wasn't sure if it needed further attention, but the owner wanted to come back. He also threw in a few very small extra jobs while he was here--gratis. The only thing I would suggest I that they clean up a little better and put all the furniture back. I will definitely call Accurate when it is time to paint.

Accurate Painting and Remodeling was okay. Nothing stood out. Everything was as expected. The work was good.
Description of Work: They did wallpaper removal and wallpaper preparation.
Pete and his crew were great (Rene & Jose). Pete is straight with you, does what he says he'll do when he says he'll get it done, and makes sure his guys get it right. It took about 4 full days of work to complete, but he got it done on budget and within 2 weeks as originally requested, even though we added more work mid-way through. They even stayed until 8:30PM on the last day to make sure everything was done right. The only delay was getting my wife and I to agree on a color to paint the basement. He even met her at the Benjamin Moore paint store to match the color on a brochure and let us use his discount even though we were paying for the paint, which was my request to get a firm quote without knowing what type of paint we would be using. Drywall/Green Board, plaster and wood was included in the quote, but extra items I added later were extra, like paint & trim board. Pete is excellent at answering and returning phone calls and making sure all your questions are answered. He also pointed out several things I had not thought of during the quoting process, and we agreed to adjust the price based on a couple changes I made mid-way through, which added more work, including the final painting (versus just priming). They also did a great job plastering over and repainting the holes left after we removed our old upstairs living room blinds, matching the color and touching up several other wall scratches and tiny wall cracks with plaster and paint, for only a small amount extra. In the end, my wife and I were both extremely pleased with their quality of work, fair pricing, and professionalism in general. We highly recommend them for any home remodeling work!
Description of Work: Remodeled our basement, including drywall, painting, framing and installing bi-fold closet door, and new window frames.

Response from Accurate Painting & Remodeling
When contacted, the client stated she wanted to paint window frames so she could pass an inspection. Later she stated that we had to paint the sashes also which is a much more time consuming process. Everything was very clearly outlined in the proposal based on her original description. Regarding the windows, if you have two windows surrounded by one frame it does not mean that it is only one window, it is two windows. The number of windows is determined by the windows within the frame. We also had problems with her tenant locking windows before the paint was dry causing them to be painted shut. Everything was painted according to the original proposal and with the client additional work requests. Naturally there are additional costs when a client needs additional work which she fully approved. There were never any hidden charges. I am sorry the client was unhappy. We work very hard to keep our clients satisfied. My advice to clients is to give as detailed description as possible and when the proposal is received that it is reviewed thoroughly and ask questions if something is not clear or is missing before the work begins. That way there are no misunderstandings.

The job went very well, and I am happy with the results. The guys who did the painting, Sergio and Renee were excellent. They were punctual, professional, courteous, and very attentive to details. I thought they did a really great job and they were both very pleasant to work with. Thanks to Pete for his patience and courtesy facilitating the job, and big thanks to Sergio and Renee for a job well done!

Pete and his crew first painted my garage well in one day. It was was neatly done, in 3 colors. They even helped me go pick up the paint from the store when my car was not working. Then I hired Pete to assess what parts of the house needed the most repair, and we made a plan to repair and paint much of the exterior of my house at a price I considered affordable. While he needed to bring in new crew members several times when others were unavailable, they all did very good work. Necessary repair to clapboard, windows and trim was done by his crew person who was an experienced carpenter. The job was finished by our agreed-upon date. I have since called Pete for house repair advice, which he was helpful with, and I would definitely hire Pete again for exterior house painting and carpentry repairs.

Initially I had sent an email but didn't receive a response so got miffed but called a second time and got a call back and Peter said he had left a voice mail message (which I didn't receive) in response to my first contact. He will be coming out to give me a quote.

We needed to have walls in 2 bedrooms and ceilings in 3 other rooms replastered. Accurate did a great job. They were always on time and responsive whenever I needed to contact them. Their work was top notch and the workers very pleasant to work with. When they were here we also asked them to repaint both of the bedrooms that they were replastering. They were very accommodating about getting the work done and planned it so that they could work the painting around the plastering. The finished product looked flawless and I will definitely be using them again.
Description of Work: Replastered MANY walls and ceilings and then painted 2 bedrooms.
They were honest, efficient and showed up on time. They were straight-forward and a no-nonsense company that went straight to work.

After looking at the job, Pete gave what I thought was a fair price. The team arrived on time, completed to job and cleaned up after themselves. I love the way my hose looks after the wood has been repainted.

They worked fast and were very nice. They cleaned up after themselves. They, however, didn't leave the walls in paint ready condition. I feel they could have washed them down better. But, over all I was happy to have the work done.

Pete returned my call very promptly and after listening to what we needed to have done, described what he would do to prep and paint. He then provided a written estimate which we agreed to. When the weather was warm enough for exterior painting, he called to set up an appointment. He estimated he could do the work on the house in 2 days, and come back to finish the garage later. On the scheduled day, Pete and his two workers arrived promptly and began work. Throughout the process they were very clean and tidy and explained what they were doing. At the end of the second day, not only was the house done, but they had also finished the work on the garage. Everything looks great, and we feel that Pete's pricing was fair and the quality of the work is very good. We will definately hire him again for our painting needs.
Description of Work: Scraped, primed and painted wood trim and sills of all windows and lintels of our 1920s brick bungalow and garage.

It went fine. I completely recommend this contractor.
Description of Work: I contacted Accurate Painting & Remodeling for an estimate on completely updating a bathroom. Pete Simon set up an appointment & arrived promptly on time. He was very personable and professional and the price estimate very reasonable. I could tell from his comments, questions and suggestions that he is thoroughly skilled, knowledgeable & experienced in all the handyman areas of carpentry, plumbing and electricity and that he would do a fine, professional job. Although I ended up deciding to delay my project at this time, I will certainly call on Accurate Painting & Remodeling the next time my (very old) house needs professional-quality repair or modernizing.

This deal wasn’t as straightforward as I had hoped.. They didn’t give a great expectation of when they’d complete the work. There were several add-ons that were increased money that I was not expecting. Because I only wanted to get what I had already paid for, I ended up with an incomplete job. They did warn me they might not be able to finish the job in the amount of time I had purchased, but they didn’t confirm at the end that I didn’t want to finish it. The work was fine. There were no real issues scheduling, but the professionalism was a problem: because I was not an expert on drywall, I wasn’t really sure how much they should be able to get done in that amount of time.

The deal did not include the paint, I had to provide that myself, which I didn’t realize, so that was a bit more expensive. I asked them to come back and fix a few areas that were a bit sloppily done, but they did come back and finish it. There seemed to be upselling and extra costs with both of these Deals. The language in the offer seemed a bit unclear. It may have said it, but a section clearly stating extra costs incurred by the purchaser would be very helpful. The paint job looks good overall; there are no bubbles or anything like that.

They did an excellent job and left the walls in great shape. The worker was very professional and was done so quickly I couldn't believe it. He did in 4 hours what would have taken me 7 days. He did a great job of cleaning up the mess that the wallpaper leaves. Very impressed with their work. The only negative thing I have to say is the person I scheduled the appointment with mixed up days so I had to reschedule but the excellent quality work more than made up for it. I would definitely hire this company again

Was a great experience from the point of providing an estimate to the work completion. Pete Simon and his crew took on a huge job, adjusted where repairs were needed (interior and exterior) and provided great service and advice throughout. Special thanks to Rene and John for their efforts to finish the exterior painting prior to inclement weather. Would definitely recommend Pete and his team and will contact them again for future projects. Very appreciative of their efforts!
