Description of Work: Very responsive. Gave me an estimate. Work scheduled for two days later. They showed up on time and were finished by the middle of the afternoon the next day. I thought the price was on the high side as I had estimates done on another room which was far less than their price. Other than that, they were outstanding

Description of Work: They repainted my daughter's bedroom. They were very responsive, provided a quick estimate, arrived promptly, cleaned up thoroughly after themselves, and did a great job. Very pleased with their work and I've already scheduled them for a second job.

Description of Work: Lookswell has the nicest, most professional team. They were incredibly polite people who we felt comfortable having in our home. The have painted our new home for us and just painted our former home to freshen it up before we list it. They aren't the cheapest but they are the best. We wouldn't use anyone else.

Description of Work: Painted a bi-level condo duplex up. Used top quality Benjamin Moore paint. Price included all stairways, hallways, main areas, and also one of the ceilings on the top level (about 2000 sqf. all said and done). Also touched up drywall areas requiring some light patch and repair. | |Lookswell did a great job...I was very happy with the quality of their work. They cleaned up very well after themselves when the job was finished. My only ding was on price. I negotiated a discount which was appreciated, but I still feel I could have gotten the job done for $500 to $1000 less. Then again, I may not have been as happy. Given the quality of their work I would say this is a classic example of getting what you pay for. | |I would definitely use them again as long as their price wasn't outrageous.
