Tom The Painter

Good job of communicating when the crew would arrive and tasks they would be doing. Completed the work timely and didn't leave a mess.

It did not go anywhere. The provider did not return my call and when I called again, Tom, the provider was borderline rude and I am pretty sure just hung up on me. It was all very strange and confusing. I am trying to give him business and he would not give me the courtesy of a moment to see if he could do the work I was inquiring about!

Tom and his crew did a wonderful job resurfacing the back deck on a house we had recently bought. The previously owner had improperly painted the deck and the paint/stain was peeling up all over the place. Tom and his guys put a ton of work into sanding down the entire deck and taking it from a solid color to natural wood with a semi-transparent stain, which is no easy task. Tom was more than willing to fully explain the challenges in doing this and what the final product would look like. We have two large dogs that love claw things up as well as some of the board being very close to the grass line and Tom was great at explaining why a solid stain would not be ideal in that situation, both for wear and tear with the dogs and moisture from the grass possibly affecting certain stains. Finally, in between the sanding and staining phases we had several weeks of rain and inclement weather that kept dragging things out and Tom was great at staying in touch. He came out several times to measure the moisture level to ensure that it was ideal for applying the stain and was able to squeeze us in when the weather finally did clear. High recommend and will use again.

Excellent and on time. We would definitely use Tom again.

Came to estimate quote. Went back and forth on availability do I changed my schedule 2x to be home for this. Quote never received. I asked for it again and he said he didn't have time to come out, completely forgot he already did. Why do the work of estimating and drop the ball at the end? No response to second quote request when I reminded him he came a month ago. smh.

We are now almost a year out since Tom and his crew painted the exterior of our 3100 square foot house and the painting continues to look as fabulous as the first day. Our house was half unpainted brick exterior and half wood plank, and we decided to have Tom paint them as one color to create some uniformity and make it more pleasing to the eye. It was a scary proposition because once you paint brick, you can't go back. While I selected the color scheme (brown, black, and white), Tom helped me figure out what which colors would look best on the the exterior, gutters, trim and doors. He was totally right and my house looks beautiful. Tom was also the most affordable out of the 6 contractors from whom I received bids. Tom's bid was $2000 lower than the second lowest bid and about $14,000 less than the highest bid. We are very fortunate to have had Tom on the job and would highly recommend him.

Tom and his guys were great. We loved how they worked - very hard, professional and courteous! It's great that Tom doesn't over-promise - he tells you exactly what he can do and when. Also, he is very knowledgable about deck products and care. The real surprise is that he was able to start the job a week earlier than planned (always a "weather issue" when trying to plan outside jobs...).

They did a great job. They did a very thorough job. We liked the level of work and the completed work.

Contacted Tom to provide quote through Angie's List. Tom called and said that they just got a huge job and could not get to our project in our time frame. He was very nice and honest. I would call him again in the future.

Last fall Tom and his crew power washed and sanded our decks and stairs on two levels and applied a stain. The 12 year old decks and stairs now look new. They came back in April to lightly wash the deck after the winter and applied a second coat of stain. Tom works along with his crew to make sure the job is accomplished thoroughly and and up to his standards. He carefully cleaned up after each visit. Tom is knowledgeable, professional, and meticulous. He communicated well about the project and the scheduling. The completed work was beyond our expectations. We highly recommend him and will continue to call on him for future work.

We are prepping to put our house on the market and wanted to get the exterior and interior looking fresh and new. Tom and his crew were amazing. They arrived on time and busted out the work completing the whole interior on Thursday 4/3 and the exterior work on 4/4. They were clean, neat and meticulous about their work. I would hire him again and recommend him to anyone who asked for a painter. Extremely happy.

Tom and his crew were professional throughout the entire process. Always prompt, worked hard, and cleaned up afterwards. He listened to my suggestions and offered some great tips. It was a breeze working with him. They did a fantastic job.

It went really well! This was the first time I had used them, and I would use them again in the future as well as recommend them to others. He’s on the pricy side, but the quality of the work he does is worth it. He fixed a previous (bad) stain job on our deck by stripping it down to bare wood and it looks great!

The third time I have requested Tom's services. First time for interior. The prep work his team does is impeccable. He uses Benjamin Moore paint and his team does a beautiful job cleaning up afterward. Nobody does it better.

Working under very difficult circumstances, Tom and his crew were able to complete all the work in a timely manner. We don't have a basement, so the furnace and hot water heater were in the same area as the burst pipe. The hot water heater had to moved to fix the pipe; then the drywall was installed; then the plumber had to come back to replace the hot water heater; then Tom had to come back to install the doors. It was done seamlessly over a 2 day period. It was also extremely cold in the garage while they were working. The actual replacing the drywall and the ceiling was particularly difficult and painstaking work. They did a wonderful job. They worked quickly and cleaned up after themselves. The garage has never looked so good. We would recommend him to anyone who needs remodeling work without any reservations.

Tom and his team did a great job and at a fair price.

Tom and he crew were a pleasure to work with. They were thorough, competent, and careful and at all times were polite and professional. The quality of the finished job was higher than we had anticipated and we will definitely call on him again. The weather was an issue and we didn't always know when he was coming for the three day project.

The workmanship was outstanding, Tom and his crew were very punctual and continully asked for feedback concerning the work being done. After the work was completed and Tom was paid he came back to do some touchup work spending almost 4 hours addressing every minor iitem on our check list. We are very pleased with the woerk performed by Tom and his crew and are plaaning on using Tom to do a major project on the interior of our house later this Fall or early Winter.

Tom was very responsive and followed up on all my phone calls, messages, and texts. He came out and gave me an estimate that was competitive and in-line with other estimates that I received. I thought that he was knowledgeable and honest in giving his opinion and suggestions regarding my project. He was very clear about the time needed to complete the project and costs associated with it. I needed some wood repair done as part of the pre-painting prep work, and he seemed willing and able to do that. In the end, I ended up going in another direction with this home improvement project, but that was no reflection on Tom or any lack of confidence in his abilities. I contacted him to let him know that I appreciated his time, and that I would surely consider using his services on future painting projects around my home.

We were impresses with his professionalism, his punctuality and the work he did. His employees and Tom couldn't have been nicer and I would highly recommend him.

It was great. I had a lot of trouble finding anyone who would even come out, it had been a really wet spring and most folks were way backed up. Those who did get back to me were much more vague and not very optimistic about what could be done to restore our deck (we had been doing it ourselves for years - the products recommended by Home Depot, Benjamin Moore, etc. all started chipping off by the end of the summer) Tom was very responsive to my desires (I wanted it to look like wood again) and understood I was pressed for time. (My husband's surprise birthday party 7/14) He went so far as to break from a job he was in the middle of (with the owners permission of course) to take advantage of the rare dry days for the staining. His crew was very professional and took care to protect the plantings around the deck. It looks fabulous. It is now the end of September and it still looks great, no wear showing on the traffic patterns. Tom recommended we seal it in a year or two (a much cheaper and less involved process) and we will absolutely have him do that. I was very, very happy and only regret that I didn't get this review out sooner!

Tom and his team did a fantastic job. I have a 2 story 1933 colonial with cedar shake siding, and shutters that was last stained about 7 years ago. The stain was pealing and there was a number of spots on window frames and on siding where the wood had rotted from moisture. Tom was competitive on his pricing and totally dependable on his time frame for completing the job. Tom actually works the job with his hard working employees and they work hard. From the initial power washing, to meticulous scraping, wood work repair and then careful painting, Tom's team put in 10 hour days and made our home look beautiful. Tom's brother is a carpenter and whenever we ran into an unexpected problem with a ppiece of rotted siding or window sill it was removed and rep[laced with new materials. Tom is extremely neat and each night they left the job site flawless. If you use Tom you will be very happy you did. I have lived in my house for 22 years and it has never looked better.

Tom was prompt for the estimate and follow-ups. He completed everything as promised. they worked quickly and kept everything very tidy. I would highly recommend Tom

They were superb. They were very careful in preparation, and an immaculate paint job.

Tom and his crew were flexible and prompt. Painted in the rain and the results were better than we could hope for. He used the paint of our choice and executed. Thanks TOM! Best Regards Grant Strom
