Bowels was very responsive to my initials calls and gave me a very quick and accurate estimate. Justin, the painter, showed up on time and was accurate in his time estimate to complete the job. When finished he noticed a couple of spots that did not cover very well with the paint, most likely due to some left over silicon caulk that was difficult to remove and very difficult to see originally. It only showed up because the paint had a hard time sticking to it, as expected. Justin arranged to return to correct those issues once the paint had a chance to cure for a few days. We had a very limited window for him to complete the refinishing and his time estimate was right on. He did a great job considering the challenges with the surfaces to be painted.

Bowles did an excellent job painting our ugly peach bathtub surround. I called on Monday and they came out on Friday to complete the job. It looks brand new! Would definitely recommend them and use them again.

That was fine. It was wonderful. It looks like race care finish. It is awesome. He said that it should last a life time and stay shinny. That it will not fade. It gets stained with bird poop but that rinses right off. For what they do, I think the price was fair. They were professional and great to deal with.
Description of Work: They did my garage door. I bought a new garage door off of an Angie's List person. The garage door faces the sun 24 hours a day and he suggested that I do the electrostatic painting. So Bowles Electrostatic Painting came and did the electrostatic painting.

The service tech arrived as scheduled. We were a bit unprepared, due to the tub not being as clean as we would have liked. The service tech was great, and did a lot of prep work. He explained about the process and how to care for tub. I have used them in the past to correct a cheap job by another company. Did a great clean up after the work. I really like this company.

We are sorry that our quote was more than you expected, however the Electrostatic process is a more expensive process than a regular painting and shows like a factory finish. Hopefully we can be of some assistance in the future. Thanks for considering us.

Bowles Electrostatic Painting game me a price that is more than what I want to spend. They're maybe very competitive in the field. They were prompt on to their appointment time. The person who came out was not gonna be doing work but she works for them and she was taking information back to the owner of the company and they will send me an e-mail estimate as well as the follow up call very promptly.

Justin was right on time and had his work cut out for him. The tub had been reglazed 10 years prior by a different company. The glaze came off within months so it had been peeling for years. He had it stripped and looking fine in a matter of hours. The finish looks like new again; we are very happy with their work and plan to use them again on another job.

I have use Bowles in the past and was pleased with them. Several years ago, I hired a company to re-paint a bath tub. The paint did not hold up and after a couple of years, it pealed. Bowles came to the rescue and removed old paint and refinished it with "electrostatic" method and it still looks great. I really like this company, they provide a good service, and I know it will hold up well.
Description of Work: This is the second rental house that they have done for me and it looks great. They were booked about a week out. They came on time. Did a great prep job on a 1920's bath tub and electrostatic painted it. The guy that came out was very nice, did a great job and cleaned up. They gave me their January discount, 255.00 was a good price for their quality work.

We took down the vent hood & put it in the garage for painting. The workman came at the precise time we'd agreed upon. We had put Kraft paper under the hood to protect the floor, but he was careful enough to lay down even more. There was absolutely NO mess & the hood looks like new. After seeing the results on the hood, we asked for an estimate on painting the faded steel siding on our house. We were pleased with the price as well as the explanation of the projected work process. Again, workmen came when they said they would. First, the house was power-washed; then all windows & trim were carefully masked. The painting took parts of two days because they worked only on the shadier sides to insure a lasting coating. All the masking paper & tape was removed, down to the last shred. I have yet to find either a missed spot on the siding, or a single drop of paint on the windows or trim. The house looks wonderful. We cannot say enough good things about Bowles. We HIGHLY recommend the company!!
Description of Work: We contacted Bowles first to paint a range vent hood. They did such a good job that we asked them to paint the faded steel siding on our house. We are extremely happy with the work.

The work on the hood went so well that we contracted with Bowles to paint the exterior of our house. The steel siding had faded badly over the previous 30-some years. We had been considering having it painted, but were hesitant because of the metal surface. Bowles explained the electrostatic process, came out and power washed the siding. A couple of days later, the crew arrived to do the painting. They worked on the shadier sides first, then came back the next day to finish. They were efficient, professional, tidy, etc. and cleaned up completely afterwards. Then they inspected the work VERY thoroughly. We are beyond pleased and have recommended them to everyone we know. Oh--this is a fairly large house, lots of windows which had to be protected from the paint so we were also pleased with the price.

I had just had a new garage door installed and had mentioned to the installer from Lewis Door Service that I was concerned that the new door might fade over time since it would get the full sun all day every day (the old door had faded some). He said that he understood my concern and told me about Bowles Electrostatic Paint Co. I called them and made arrantements for them to do my door. Given a sample of my trim paint, they were able to match the paint exactly for the door. The painter showed up exactly on time and very carefully prepared the area to be painted. He was very professional and friendly and he did an absolutely awesome job on the door. My intent is for the door to last the rest of my lifetime and I really feel that it will. The resulting finish is like that of a race car. It is a hard and shiny finish and it is absolutely beautiful. It really shows off the door. From my understanding, any dirt that manages to cling to the door can just be sprayed off with a hose. Before having this finish put on the door, the company gave me several references to call and I did. Everyone said that the finish on their doors was fabulous even after a year or more. It is well worth the mone,y in my opinion, to know that the door will not fade in the sun and will be easy to maintain forever.
Description of Work: Because my garage door gets the full sun every day all day and I was concerned about it fading over time, a representative from Lewis Door Service suggested I have the door electrostatic painted and recommended the Bowles Electrostatic Paint Co.

With a history of both good and bad bathtub reglazing, I can say that Bowles Electrostatic Painting did an excellent job all the way. The man who did the work was pleasant and efficient. He came back immediately to finish the job--this takes 3 days as it has to "cure" before the taping can be removed. This particular tub has now been painted 3 times and this looks to be the best yet. There were no surprises in the cost. I knew it would run more because the old paint had to be stripped off, so this wasn't an outrageous price and the tub looks brand new.
Description of Work: I called on a Tuesday and was offered the service by Thursday, but I needed to wait until the next week. The man who did the work, James, showed up on time, worked quickly and efficiently, was pleasant without being overly chatty. He taped off everything that was near the tub and removed the drain cover, etc. Two days later he came back to replace the hardware, untape everything, and do new caulking. Again, he was on time and did his job efficiently. I could not have asked for better service.
