Bill Schneeberger Painting & Decorating LLC

Roy Schneeberger is the consummate professional. He guided us through what could be done to restore the plaster walls and woodwork of our vintage (100-year-old) place to their original splendor. His crew, Roman and Carlos, were a dream team. They were meticulous in their painting and repair work, paying attention to every detail. Their experience and commitment to doing quality work shows in the final product. They helped us with far more than painting; they were able to expertly solve years-long problems with creative solutions. They worked their magic in nearly every room in our home. Beyond the superior quality, this team left our home spotless at the end of every day of the job. We can't recommend them highly enough.

The were excellent. They were accommodating. Could be happier with the quality.

I spent quite a bit of time looking for a painting professional to repaint the front porch of our 110-year-old house in Evanston. I spoke to three or four others before Roy Schneeberger stopped by for a look. After listening to his assessment, I decided Bill Schneeberger Painting was the company I wanted to work with. Mind you, they're not the cheapest, but I'm old enough to realize that you get what you pay for these days. The real value in choosing these guys I think was that they clued me into a number of issues that needed attention with our deck in order to make for a perfect job. Sure I could have said no, but when I listened to Roy explain why he thought some of the other problems he discovered were worth considering, I agreed. The result was a truly perfect paint job that included replacing a bunch of rotten wood I didn't even realize was there. Their work turned our porch into a place I think will be around looking great for many years to come. If I could have given Bill Schneeberger Painting 6 stars I would have ... in fact I will. They deserve 6 stars. I'll be ringing them back soon for some inside work too.

They did a beautiful job and fixed a lot of the botched work from previous painters.

This company is excellent. I had the exterior windows painted and the porch railing redone. They were very quick to respond and showed up when they said they would. Everyone was very kind, friendly and professional. They were able to complete the job prior to the original date estimated. The quality of their work is great. Would definitely hire again and highly recommend.

The painting was very good. They also did a great job of cleaning up at the end of the day. I did see some things that needed attention, but this happens with all jobs, and they attended to things immediately. They strive for a great job with honesty and fairness.

Overall, it went very well. We were moving into an older home that needed major interior paint updating. We had an approximately 10 day window after closing where the home would be vacant. It made their job a lot easier since the home had no furniture so the job went quickly. We appreciated they were able to accommodate our schedule and complete 95% of it during that time. The finished product was outstanding. The painters did a very good job with the cutting in on the walls and trim. The wall-to-ceiling and trim-to-wall transitions are smooth and linear. The patchwork on some drywall damage was done well. We got multiple quotes and they were competitive with the other offers but I still think it was quite expensive. Although it cost a lot I think they came through with a quality job. The one thing I wish was different was getting them to finish the items on the punchlist. They were all very minor items to address but still needed to be completed. I know they had moved on to other jobs but it took another 3 weeks for them to come back and finish all those small touch ups. I would definitely hire them again for future work.

Roy Schneeberger responded promptly to our inquiry, did a thorough on-site inspection, and provided a detailed estimate. He also offered recommendations (for example, replacing window and door casing to coordinate with new kitchen decor), which he quoted as separate options for our consideration without any pressure to accept. We did agree to this work, and it made a huge difference in the wonderful end result. The price quoted was reasonable based on our experience, and they were able to coordinate our schedule with work required and staff availability. We found the workers professional, respectful, and careful of the property they worked with or near to. They worked as a team, finished the project quickly, and each day returned the work area to normal before leaving. We are excited to use them again in the near future for the rest of our house. We highly recommend Roy and Bill Schneeberger Painting & Decorating.

Roy Schneeberger, son of the company founder, is deeply knowledgeable and committed to getting the work done right. For that reason, he doesn't "low ball" his initial bid. The price was fair, not cheap, and Roy pays personal attention to the quality of the job and, if those who work for him are busy, comes out to get it done himself. Particularly when you have a job that requires real knowledge of different paints and of repairs/prep work on different surfaces (wood, stucco, etc.), their experience, creative ideas about problem-solving and commitment made all the difference. True professional pride.

This large bed room was painted in two days. The crew was surprising quiet as they went about their work. The room looks great. We are very pleased.

These guys are amazing!!!! The previous owners of our home didn't do the best job painting the kitchen. They used a very high gloss paint and they painted over tile so there were tons of drip marks and brush strokes. Schneeberger was able to sand down the walls prior to painting and now we have a beautiful kitchen. The painters were very punctual and SO clean. With all of the sanding I was sure that I would come home to a mess but everything in the kitchen and the rest of the house was completely dust free! We also had them paint all of the woodwork and walls in our nursery and they did just as beautiful of a job in that room as well. They completed the work very quickly and I am so pleased with the outcome. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future. I cannot say enough positive things about this team.

Perfect. From my initial meeting with Roy Schneeberger to receive the estimate, I instinctively felt I would like to work with this company. Roy walked through the rooms and prepared an itemized and detailed estimate. Which, by the way, was exactly what I paid at the end. They probably won't be the least expensive, but the quality of their work was superior and worth the cost. I had 4 painters on site for 5-1/2 days. They were punctual, worked professionally, quietly, and as a team. Their work was meticulous. You could tell they had been working together for a long time, Everyone spoke English, so communication was never a problem. I am very happy.

The crew did excellent work, for the quoted/agreed price, and accommodated my daily schedule variations. The owner, Roy Schneeberger, personally did the last half a day's work, ensuring that everything was finished to his standards, which I liked.

Prompt, courteous, professional, considerate, cooperative, extremely competent, trustworthy. We had used a single painter for 20-some years. A total perfectionist and honorable guy. He retired. Tried three other companies with very disappointing results. We have found his replacement with Schneeberger and his staff. Trust them implicitly in capabilities, attention to detail, professionalism. If they are not happy with a 'spot' they independently chose to address it. Their pride in 'perfection' is a welcome relief. Their quality of work is superior. Did not hesitate to leave them alone in the house. Highly recommend.

We've been very happy with Roy at Scheenberger Painting. He's competitively priced, professional and does a quality job. We've had him back to do several projects in our home and will continue to call on him in the future as more jobs come up. I recommend him without reservation

Roy responded promptly to my initial call and provided a great service throughout. The price was competitive and the job that was done was perfect. The crew cleaned up everyday, worked around a house full of kids and toys, and were even able to handle a large two story foyer with ceiling work. I will use this company again when I paint the upstairs.

We started using Bill Schneeberger Painting and Decorating when we moved into our house last year. His team painted the interior of our entire house including built ins. They completely rehabbed our door which had collected paint since 1920, and rehabbed our entire kitchen by painting all of the cabinets flawlessly. They have done multiple jobs on the exterior of our house, and have come back to do baseboards and extra rooms since. They are pristine, professional, flexible, and have been wonderful to work with on every project. I would recommend them to anyone with full confidence that everything is going to come out absolutely perfect!!

Roy Schneeberger and the gentleman he brought with him each have the precision of a surgeon. They showed up on time, completed the job to perfection, and fully cleaned up. They also stayed within budget and completed everything according to the time frame specified in the estimate. Aside from their professionalism, they are super easy to get along with, and their rates are very competitive. I would enthusiastically use their service again without any hesitation, I have told family and friends about them, and I would recommend them for all painting jobs. Really can't say enough about these guys!

My family room needed to be freshened-up and wallpaper needed to be removed. I have used Bill Schneeberger several times before, and have never been disappointed. Roy, his son who is taking over the business, came over for the estimate and was very thorough and honest with me. I am trying to keep the cost down and he gave me great suggestions. I decided to remove the wallpaper myself, with the understanding that the wall may need repair after I was done. Roy stated clearly that an hourly rate would apply for that work, since we didn't know the wall condition. The wall did of course have problems, but the repair is FLAWLESS. I can't emphasize enough the high quality work done by this crew. The walls were thoroughly prepared and sanded, including the trim. Prep is where lesser quality painters skimp on the work. If you want quality work, I highly recommend Bill Schneeberger Painting and Decorating. Price might be a little higher, but the professionalism and workmanship are worth the money.

Roy and his team are a delight to work with! From start to finish, from the estimate to the execution, everything went extremely smoothly. Their recommendations on what materials to use were very helpful and worked out terrifically. His team is courteous, on time, and professional.

Roy and his team were fantastic to work with from start to finish. Everyone was extremely professional, friendly, patient with my questions and concerns, followed through on promised work and deadlines and even stayed late on a Friday to finish the job on time. The quality of work was great.

It was a great experience from start to finish. He had to come back several times between each coat of gel paint as each coat had to dry. He did a wonderful job!

The painters rarely arrived before 10 AM, frequently later. This is a condo, with a newly remodeled kitchen. I would arrive home to find paint splattered over the newly installed cherry cabinets. The same thing happened on the wood floors. Paint splattered everywhere, because of failure to ensure that drop cloths were covering the floors. The elapsed time was nearly three weeks, and they only finished within three weeks because I told them they had to finish or simply leave. Three weeks to paint two rooms and two halls. In addition, once they scraped the windows, the windows (French) never closed properly again. And they wanted more money than their original estimate.

Bill and his guys were terrific. They were able to adapt their schedule to mine (they painted here over the holidays. They removed their stuff before Christmas and returned then on 1/10). He was knowledgeable about wall preparation: he advised me on how to go about removing the kitchen wallpaper. He was good about amending the original quote and checked back with me to make sure that I understood any changes in price. They were pleasant and courteous.

BILL FORGOT TO TELL ME WHEN THE WALLPAPERING WOMAN WAS TO COME. SO, I WASN'T EXPECTING HER WHEN SHE CAME, BUT IT WORKED OUT JUST FINE. SHE WAS VERY GOOD AND FAST.
