Tom was absolutely excellent. I had roughly 200ft of fence that was pressure washed, allowed to dry, and stained on both sides with a natural cedar tone. Tom and his guys finished the pressure washing during one day, came back a few days later and stained the fence. The job was done thoroughly and looks unbelievable. I didn't compare with a lot of other companies but I did ask around with some friends and family to determine if the price was competitive, which I determined it was. I am very happy with the results and what I paid for this job. It was a ton of work and its was completed perfectly. I will be contracting Tom for more work inside my house very soon. Thanks Tom.

Tom provided a timely and detailed estimate which allowed some back and forth on services to bring down the overall cost. He made recommendations but was always flexible about the approach to the repair and painting work. He was able to schedule the work within a couple of weeks and arrived with a large crew when he said he would - getting the job done within the time he estimated (4 days). They came with ample crew and equipment - and cleaned up thoroughly after each day. I couldn't be more pleased with the final result - as near-perfect a job as I could hope for. I'll be bringing him back for all my painting needs.
Description of Work: Job included complete exterior painting of aluminum siding and trim and repair of window sills and trim.

Everything went well. The job took a bit longer than Tom anticipated but we didn't mind because they made sure to do everything we asked. They really listen to their customers. Dealing with Tom is sheer pleasure!
Description of Work: Tom and his crew painted our first floor interior and front door. In addition, he replaced drywall around a glass brick window in our garage that had become moldy over the years. He also replaced drywall in the ceiling of our garage after we had experienced a leak from an ice dam. Tom and crew were uber-polite and respectful. This sets them apart from all others in their class. In addition, they were hard-working and conscientious. They are very knowledgeable about paint products and helpful in choosing color. The results are beautiful. Our neighbors are all noticing. Finally, out of 3 bids we got, Tom's was the most reasonable. We highly recommend him!

They arrived on the day of the appointment on time. They worked all day in terrible heat and were still at it when I arrived home from work at 5 PM. They finished up around 6:30 PM. They cleaned up after themselves and the deck looked terrific. I would like to add that Tom and his men removed everything from the deck for my husband and myself as we are senior citizens and I thought that was very thoughtful. The next day the torrential rains began for several days but the deck held up just fine. All in all, I am totally satisfied with the work that was done and would definitely use Tom the Painter again for other projects.
Description of Work: We hired Tom the Painter to sand and stain our deck with latex stain. The deck hadn't been done in at least two or three years. It is a large deck with a pergola, bench and side wall and I felt that the price he quoted was very fair.

Tom returned our call within a day and came out soon after and provided us with estimates for cost and time as well as start date. Estimate was very competitive especially in light of their stellar reputation. All work was completed as promised for the estimated costs.We couldn't be more happy regarding the quality of the work performed and the ease in dealing with Tom and his people.In my 20 plus years of owning a home in Bannockburn, this was by far our best experience in dealing with companies involved with home improvements.

Tom the Painter and his crew were great. Response to quote request was very prompt. The pricing was very reasonable and fair. There was extra work needed with the sanding and taking on the screening project. Tom gave me good advice on colors and made extra trips here to bring color samples and deliver screens and supplies. I will use Tom the Painter again. The whole project from start to finish was A++. Very professional, fast, clean. I could not be happier with the entire process and the outstanding results. They are hard workers!! Putting in long days to get the job done in between constant rain days. Top notch in every way!
Description of Work: Our deck,screened porch, upper sun deck needed major work. Sanding, prepping, staining, painting, even removing the furniture. They did it all. The sanding part was more extensive than originally quoted. And, they took on the re-screening of the porch, which was not in the original request.

I thought the price was pretty much worth it. Overall the job turned out excellent. They were on time. They did everything we asked them to do. They paid extreme attention to detail. They were incredibly confident. This is the first time I’m using them. I would recommend him to the others because of his high quality work. He was on time and efficient. I got my money’s worth out of it. They were completely honest people to deal with. It was a real investment rather than just have them come in and splash some pain off. I would use their services again in the future.

The project went smoothly from beginning to end. I can highly recommend Tom the Painter.
Description of Work: Tom and his crew painted two big rooms (including the base boards), a hallway, entryway, staircase, a couple of windows and repaired some drywall. Having used Tom the Painter in the past for our entire upstairs and also the front and back porches, I knew that I was going to get good quality work. Being very detailed oriented myself, this company is a great fit for me. They are very careful covering up the furniture before painting, spend a lot of time doing the prep work and the final paint job looks very professional. Tom always takes his time answering my questions, he's punctual and very courteous. I already know that I will use his services again when we paint the kitchen this summer.

Overall everything was excellent. I would recommend him to everybody. There were very efficient. They were very neat and no mess. I thought they did an excellent job all along. I?d think at most times there were four or five people who came out to do this job for me. I think this guy brought his brother along too. I?m not sure about the number of people that came here to do my job. His price was higher than what the insurance company provided, around $300 higher, but for the work he did I was satisfied. I would use his services again in the future.
Description of Work: I used Tom the Painter. I last used his service probably in May 2010. First they did power washing inside our house. Then they said they can’t come back for three days because the things had to dry. They did two coats of paint and they did a little room spraying.

The experience was great. Originally I had told Tom I needed the basement painted but did not have the trim done so I might have him back later when I got around to getting it in. He told me he would plan for two days to paint the space. He was scheduled to follow up my drywall team the day after they were done. The drywall team finished two days early and I called Tom to see if he could adjust his schedule and he did. He started two days ahead of schedule and when he and his team arrived he offered to hang and paint my base board for a very reasonable price and told me he would still be done in two days. Not only did they get the paint done quickly, but there baseboard work was excellent. I have a lot of small tight corners, a closet jamb and two doors that needed trimming as well and they did it all and did it great. I am not sure if they are better carpenters or painters as they did both well. Tom had originally agreed as part of our quote to paint two doors, but one did not come in on time so he only had to paint one. He did a ton of extra work in the house, painting trim on my main level and my steel garage door, as well as many other trim areas that were in need, but I dod not ask him to do. He didn't really charge me for al the little extras and did a superb job. Him and his team get right to work and crank it out, but do it well. They are my painters on all my projects going forward.
Description of Work: Had Tom and his crew prime and paint approximately 400 Sg ft basement room of new drywall in basement. Also put in base board and painted.

Tom was very prompt in returning my estimate request. We scheduled a day for him to come out for an estimate. Tom was punctual for the appointment. He explained the products he used for staining and answered any questions I had. He was very friendly and professional. His estimate was extremely fair. I only went with another service because I was looking for a biodegradable cleaner to be used in preparing the deck for staining since I had plants along the deck.

Tom and his crew did a great job - very hard working, very professional. The price was very reasonable. Most of all, we appreciated that Tom rearranged his schedule to complete the job right before a rain system was due, and the fall weather was about to turn colder. We definitely plan to use Tom again!

Tom and his people are the hardest workers that I have seen in a long time. I learned the importance of preparing the surfaces for the new stain or paint His people were also neat and careful when applying new stain/paint as well as using good quality materiels. I expect long term usuage from their efforts.
Description of Work: Tom and his crew cleaned old trim and paint prior to staining all trim on house. He also removed old stain from deck and re-stained with a new stain. This required preparing a trim on a house that (50%) had not been painted for 20 years. The deck required stripping off a dark stain and replacing with a lighter stain.

Tom did a excellent job in painting my house. He and his crew were very punctual and Tom does a very good job of communicating any changes in scheduling that may arise. Tom did have to request a couple changes in our original scheduling. While this wasn't a problem for me, it could be for someone else. They also did a good job of cleaning up after themselves. They did miss a couple things, but not enough to complain about. Overall they did a very good job at a reasonable price. I would definitely use Tom again.

We had a terrific experience with Tom the Painter! We started out using Angie's list to identify three painters to contact for quotes - Tom was one of the three. Tom was prompt in providing the estimate and stood out in two ways from the others: 1. He was actually going to be part of the crew that did the work; 2. Very friendly and personable pointing out design suggestions not just quoting a paint job. For example, our down spout gutters came down the middle of our cedar siding until Tom suggested to have them follow the white trim instead for a cleaner look. Small idea but one the other two didn't mention. His pricing was in line with other quotes but he was more concise around cost of potential extras that could occur (i.e. like new cedar boards & repair). We decided to go with Tom feeling good about his approach, personality and details. Tom was very communicative during the project. He and his crew were punctual, clean and skilled in their workmanship. They didn't just slap coats of paint on - they took time treating the cedar wood and caulking the open knots and trim gaps. The project was looking to run one day over Tom's original project timeline. Did he take short cuts to get to the next project? No way! I saw him taking his time caulking my shed windows to ensure weather tight seal!! That is pride in workmanship. One last thing to add on his dedicated work ethic. A few of our gutters were plugged so Tom and I discussed gutter guards. We decided to go ahead and install them. Saturday it was raining so Tom called and asked if it was ok if his team still came out to install the gutter guards and save the painting for Monday when it would be dry again. So in the rain - waited until it drizzled - he and his crew installed the gutter guards. Unreal work ethic. I wanted them to come in from the rain to warm up but Tom didn't want to mess up our house with their wet clothes. Do yourself a favor and give this guy and his crew a call. Highest rating I can give. Thank you Angie's list members for ranking him so high that we could find him. I've had bad experiences with tradesman so when you find a good one you hold onto them. We are now trying to scrap up money to accelerate the painting inside our house we planned to do next year to have Tom the Painter continue his work with us. Great experience.

Tom did my exterior painting in 2008 and I was very pleased so of course I called him again for the interior. His brother Phillip came to the house with painters {days after getting an estimate from Tom} and did an excellent job painting over oil base turning over to water base in master bath and bedroom. The need for oil primer caused a strong smell but they had fans and opened windows to help. They were neat, punctual and helpful with my many questions. Would recommend to anyone!!!!! Thanks Tom!
