These guys were the best. Quick, cheap, and perfect. I asked for a quote and got one the next day. After I signed the contract they were out there two days later and did a perfect job. They power-washed, painted, and came back the next day to confirm all the agreed upon areas were addressed. I couldn't have imagined it going better with anyone else.

From prompt and easy scheduling to a beautiful finished paint job, we had an excellent experience with Chicago Painters. Carlos and Maria were professional and did a beautiful job, and I really appreciated how Jim reached out to me throughout the process to keep me updated.

Great experience from start to finish! We had the walls, ceiling, and baseboards repainted in a single room. Got back to me right away after requesting a quote via Angi. Very responsive (and patient!) with my many questions before the job. Salvador arrived on time and did a fantastic job. He was very upfront and knowledgeable about what it would take to fix some of the trouble spots in our room, so we ended up having to alter the specs on the job just a bit. Got the job done in 5 hours, which was way less than if I were to do it myself. The room looks great! I will definitely reach out to Chicago Painters first for our next paint job.

I received a prompt in-person quote for $700 for two rooms, with a free interior design consult included, and scheduled the work within a week or so to include additional fireplace work suggested by the designer (original quote for add'l work was for a very high $250-$300, reduced to $50 by the onsite crew leader since it was not much additional work). The crew arrived very promptly on both days they worked and the quality of the work was good. A couple of issues affected the overall grade: (1) the crew did not have the quote to review the scope of the work agreed upon and, when I was unsure of whether certain work was included, things got confusing - unnecessary when walking through the quote with me on the first day of work would've resolved it; (2) clean up at the end of the job could've been better - there were spots of paint left on floors - and worryingly -- on sinks and in the toilet (since I was not living at the property at the time, I did not notice some for a week or so by which time they were harder to remove and some are still there); (3) the extreme overestimate for the additional work made me question the accuracy of estimate/price for the whole job.
Description of Work: Paint bedroom and living room walls and trim, paint fireplace and 2 small book shelves.

Thanks for the response, although this is grade that could be much better I appreciate the review even though it is hard to read (as the owner). Since this job we have incorporated a new process to avoid the named situations. All customers will recieve a 5 question survey from us on how they liked working with us and suggestions for improvement are encouraged. All work is warranted and a 30 day touch period is granted to every customer we do business with. 1- All crew chiefs on the first day of the job are to have the contract in hand and are to do an initial walk through with the customer. Since we can't list every nail hole or crack to be fixed accurately on the paper, these aarea's are to be addressed the first day of the job so there is no confustion later. Also the crew chief must have a copy of the contract in hand during the walk through. 2- Paint speckles or over spray are not tolerated within my company. Since it only takes a minute or two to cover up floors or furniture with plastic or tarps, there is no excuse for this. The crew chief for this job was suspended due to this report. Furthermore, all customers are warranted a 30day touch up period, so if any spots are missed we will come back free of charge to insure the customer is completely satisfied with the work. 3- The interior designer should of never approximated a cost for the additional work since this is not her area of responsibility. Even though she was trying to be helpful by making the customer happy, this resulted in the customer being unhappy. This has resulted in additional work quotes only allowed to be given by the estimator and in some cases the painter on site after consulting an estimator.

Overall went ok. Painters did job in 2 days as promised. On day one, painters were 2 hours late since one of the crew members got sick and someone else had to pick up the paint. So day 1 was the job foreman (a professional painter) and an apprentice (college student-not a professional painter). Day 2 was full crew of 3 (2 pros plus student) and was a long day to finish, but they did. I had some disputes with the foreman over how much of the drywall tape that was coming off should be repaired, since the estimate was not precise enough to note the exact locations of the damages to be repaired. I wanted some bubbling drywall tape replaced and the foreman said it looked fine to him and that wasn't on the estimate. Essentially if the estimate did not explicitly say to do something, he did not want to do it. A call to the company owner yielded better results. Also when I raised issues with some of the painting quality, the foreman inevitably denied there was an issue, but ended up touching up the areas I mentioned. The foreman wanted to wash his brushes in my bathroom sink, and I said no -use the hose outside. I got some attitude about that too. The crew missed some drywall nails that needed to be repaired, and I had to point them out. Overall, the job was good, and the experience was ok. They're licensed, bonded and insured, which is what I wanted, and I paid for that since I could have hired cheaper, unlicensed, unbonded painters. Would go for someone else next time since I don't need the attitude.
Description of Work: Interior priming and painting of two rooms: kitchen/living room/dining room, one bedroom. Ceilings were painted as well. Some loose drywall tape was replaced and some cracks were repaired, some drywall screw "bumps' were repaired. Price include cost of paint.

Jim Amatore arrived and described the time, work involved and cost of painting our interior. His website made it easy to choose colors and types. He and the other painters were nice and safe to have in the house.
Description of Work: They painted and prepared six rooms. The walls needed patching. The dining room had three colors. The work was completed on time and well done. Jim, the owner, is a Gulf War Veteran and a pleasure to work with. One month after the interior job, they returned and painted our porches. Again, the work was very good, completed on time, and for the agreed price. I don't hesitate to recommend them.
