Outstanding!! Very conscientious on all levels. The work was very well done. Any small issues were handled immediately and without issue, even when they had to come back. Work done was what was promised/quoted. We asked for a couple of small changes/additions along the way and they accommodated us very well. Pricing was fair... not the cheapest quote we received, but competitive. Dayne always followed up and communicated well along the way (important when trying to schedule other things)... very thorough when he came to give us the estimate so we knew what would be done. He worked with our schedules very well, which was helpful. Pricing below is for both jobs... about $1,700 for one and $3,000 for the other. We would have them back again!
Description of Work: Dayne and his crew worked on 2 separate jobs for us. The first one was drywall repair and painting resulting from a roof leak (living room ceiling and upstairs bedroom window/wall). They did such a good job on that job, we had them come back a month later for interior painting of 2 rooms, foyer, and upstairs hallway. Again, they did a great job.

Very smoothly! Everyone was very courteous and efficient and professional. They cleaned everything up very well. They were on time. The person in charge, Dane, make sure that everything was meticulously perfect before they left. He went back and checked over every little details and fixed anything before they left. We've used them three time in the last nine months, and we will never use anyone else. They were the best vendor we've ever used for anything.

The painters were very professional and polite. They made sure that we were completely satisfied with the job they did before leaving. Dayne, the owner was with them on the first day to make sure they understood what the job entailed. He then came back after the work was complete to make sure that we were 100% happy. I would highly recommend using them.
Description of Work: They painted our kitchen, master bedroom and master bathroom. They repaired any cracks and nail pops also.

Respect's painting prep and care for the home is perfect. They cover and tape everything, including the carpeting. Blinds and shades were covered. Each room receive one coat on the ceilings and two coats on the walls. 9 areas/rooms were painted. The Office, Powder Room, Laundry Room, Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen (skylight), Family Room (cathedral ceiling) Upper Hallway (skylight) , and Kitchen Closet. Also in the closet Wayne's carpenter purchased, cut and installed new shelves. We couldn't have been happier with the work. All furniture was covered, moved, and replaced without any damage. They came in each day and worked diligently with hardly any breaks. It's not often that I feel that I got what I paid for but with Respect you will. They will absolutely be finishing the rest of our home when we are ready.
Description of Work: Wayne and his team are the epitome of Customer Service. Respect is an apt name for this company because all of their service comes from this point of view. We have a history with Wayne and knew the type of service and quality we were sure to receive since Wayne had been our team leader when he was with another painting company. We were not disappointed. They are meticulous, thorough, and honestly care that the homeowner is satisfied with the results. Wayne went WAY out his way to help me pick a new yellow color for my living room/dining room. He applied multiple samples to the walls (making an extra trip) and then listened carefully to what I was trying to achieve and then helped me make the final choice. He has a great eye. I'm beyond pleased. His team is polite and hard working. They are one of the few companies that I'd feel safe with if I were home alone with them while they were doing the job. And….I've even left them in my home alone while I tended to an ill pet. Wayne books up quickly and he is more than worth the wait.

Respect Painting did and exceptional job painting / repairing dry wall at my house. I decided to call Respect for an estimate primarily due to the many positive reviews. Wayne(owner) was very responsive and detail in his estimate. I can attest, Wayne and his team were professional,prompt and very good. Respect Painting is a slam dunk and I would highly recommend using them This was my first experience with AG but will definitely not my last.

This is the second time we've used Respect Painting. Wayne and his team arrived on time and were very professional. They covered everything and used plastic to prevent the dust from getting around the house. They work is always flawless and quick. They painted our living room including the ceiling and the entrance door. They stained some wood trim around our windows and sanded down and re-stained our window ledges since they had water spots on them. Wayne was very helpful in selecting a nice neutral color, too, that went with our house. We'll definately be using Respect Painting in the future as we continue to tackle paint jobs.

We found Respect Painting on Angie's List. When we met owner, Wayne Barkus, we immediately felt confident that we had found the right person to handle painting our first floor rooms in our home. Wayne did, indeed, treat us with respect throughout the entire process from color consultation to final clean-up. He and his crew were both skilled and professional; his advice to us was spot-on; and the cost of the rather sizable job was in line with other contractors. We are delighted with the look and feel our newly painted rooms, and can't wait to have Wayne come back to consult on colors and paint the second floor of our home. We highly recommend Respect Painting for a first class professionally completed project.
Description of Work: Respect Painting painted the majority of the first floor of our residence.

I found this service on Angie's List. After calling and speaking to Wayne, I decided this was the right contractor for our job. Wayne came out and gave me a quote for the work, which I was not able to schedule for several weeks due to my availability, but around the time I had said I could schedule the job, Wayne called to follow up. I selected the colors, and we scheduled a date. The crew arrived exactly at the time specified. This was a two day project. The first day was working on bathrooms. Second day was the kitchen. They covered all areas in the work areas to avoid paint splatters and minimize dust. We're very professional and very thorough. I was so pleased with the work that I wished that I had decided to paint the entire kitchen! It was nice having the owner of the company present while the work is being performed. And the crew were all very pleasant and considerate. I would highly recommend Respect Painting, for the quality of their work and the personal service.

The owner first came out to meet with us and to check out the required work so that he could give us an estimate. Then, on schedule, he and his crew arrived, worked quietly and quickly. The estimates for time and materials and cost that Respect Painting provided were precise and accurate, Moreover, the work was beautiful. It was impossible to tell that it had been touched up, even though we weren't able to provide leftover paint in all the colors needed. They left everything clean and neat when they left. They were a dream paint team. Although we may have been able to find lower-priced painters, their work and professionalism were unbeatable. Well worth the price. I would recommend them to anyone without question.

Respect Painting first came to our home for a quote, Wayne was professional and honest. When we chose to hire his company, they were able to fit us in quickly and came out twice, first to complete the trim and then to complete the walls. We are very impressed with the attention to detail of Wayne and his team. Our trim and doors look brand new. One of our new closet doors arrived broken and Wayne went above and beyond to come back and repaint the doors for us when the new set arrived. We would recommend them to anyone/everyone and hire them again!

Wayne and his crew were efficient, hard working and very pleasant. He was quick to respond to my initial request, arrived promptly to look over the work, plus I found him very knowledgeable about the different choices of paint and what type of coverage provided by each. The estimate was submitted very quickly and was detailed. They were on time every morning and worked very efficiently as a team. Every team member was respectful of my home, plus they cleaned up after themselves..no mess for me. A significant amount of the work performed required precision, hand painted lines which was accomplished beautifully, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Wayne works with the same 2 crew members, and I felt very comfortable with them in my home. I would highly recommend Respect Painting and told Wayne I shouldn't write a review so I could keep him as a secret! Well, the secret is out, they do a terrific job.
Description of Work: Painted and repaired master bedroom walls and ceiling, large 2-story family room and another large room with high angled ceilings. Sanded, stained and marine varnished all wood trim around 4 skylights. Painting required scaffold.

We had an extremely positive experience and would definitely recommend Wayne and Respect Painting to others. Wayne came to our house a few times before starting the project to give us estimates and help us pick colors. He was there during the project and extremely friendly (as was the rest of his team). He was always available for phone calls and/or e-mails and was very willing to work around our schedules. Each evening, the house was clean and furniture was back where it belonged to the extent possible. For such a large project, we were pleasantly surprised with how easy it was continuing out day-to-day activities around the house without any interruption. Due to some previous work that was done very poorly by another contractor, Wayne's carpenter had the challenge of trying to make our trim consistent throughout the house, but it turned out great. Wayne provided us an update each night and was very patient with us always waiting until the last minute to pick colors. The actual work is beautiful - every seam is perfect and we can't see any imperfections on the walls. Wayne seems to love his work and seemed genuinely interested in our project. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely work with Wayne and Respect Painting again.
Description of Work: We had all of our trim painted and/or replaced and most of the interior rooms (family room, kitchen, living room, bathroom, hallway, dining room, etc.) painted.

The bid came in, and was unfortunately higher than we wanted to spend, so we went another route, but if I could, I would have used Respect Painting without hesitation. I felt like we were given exceptional service from Wayne, and I will contact them again if and when I need painting done.

Please see above. We did not actually use the service, but we did get a full refund.
Description of Work: We purchased this Big Deal on behalf of our Association in anticipation of some repairs and painting that we knew were going to need to be done as the result of a leak in the common area. We were not eligible to actually use the deal, though, as I think we were outside of the service area of the provider. (I don't recall the details.) The person with whom we spoke at the company was very nice, professional, and apologetic. We got our money back with no problem.

Response from Respect Painting Inc
Member, Thank you for your review. I again apologize for the misunderstanding. When creating the deal it was sent to the entire city of Chicago rather than just the Loop...which is the only area of Chicago in my service area. There was almost 25 customers that purchased it well outside my service area that needed to be refunded. I appreciate your understanding.

The plaster was chipping in my sunroom so I purchased this Angie's deal for this business to fix it. The gentleman arrived on time and began to chip away at the damaged spot. Within a few minutes, big chunks of plaster started falling off. He explained that plaster repair was no longer possible for the ceiling. The solution was for him to finish taking down of the plaster then he would recommend a drywall person that he knew to install the new drywall. He would not be able to do it. I had paid for a $99 Angies List deal for plaster repair and instead ended up with a $750 cost of a applying new drywall to the entire ceiling!
Description of Work: The job was supposed to be plaster repair. but it ended up being plaster removal.

Response from Respect Painting Inc
Member, I'm sad to hear that you would question my integrity after the work I did. I would have loved to have been able to do a small repair and for it to be easy. Instead, I recommended removing the ceiling because that was your child's playroom and the ceiling was literally ready to fall. Of all the four hours that I worked last year-that was the most difficult. I removed hundreds of pounds of plaster down three flights of stairs by myself. I bubbled the area and washed the floor as many times as possible to keep the dust to a minimum. I did not upcharge you. I did not make $1 doing the work after my materials, gas, and Angie's List took their cut. I gave you four honest hours of work for the price of the deal and I would do it all over again with the same recommendation. I'm really sorry that you feel I did differently.

I signed up for the Big Deal. They sent me an email saying they would be getting back with me on the schedule. Then, another email saying there had been a mistake, I was not in their service area and they could not make an exception. They were about 30 miles from my house.
Description of Work: I did not use this company. I purchased a Big Deal for their service but apparently, I was out of their service area. Big Deal was cancelled. I appreciate that they told me this in a timely manner and that my Big Deal was refunded but I do wish the offer was not sent to me in the first place.

Member, Thank your for your review. I couldn't agree more that you should never had recieved the deal--it would have made everything much easier. I am not in control of the where the deal goes--I set my service and the deal is supposed to be sent accordingly. In this case it was sent to the entire city of Chicago (which is not my service area) and I was left having to explain the mistake. I apologize again and thank you for your understanding. I believe it is a problem that Angie's List is working on as they grow.
