Paul Chalifour Painting Contractor

Paul was very responsive and accommodating despite the fact that I was not locally available to discuss the project. He got the keys from my realtor, performed the work with no delays. His pricing was fair.

It was time to paint the exterior of our home, which I always dread because of the hassle in finding a good and reputable painting contractor who will come in and do what they say they will do during the sales process. After talking with four or five painters, we decided to go with Paul Chalifour. I do most work to our home myself because I have the skills and pay close attention to detail. Something most contractors do not do. Painting the exterior was just too big a job so I had to give that work to someone else and hope they would demonstrate the same level of detail to our home that I do. Alex and his crew from Paul Chalifour were just that. Meticulous, neat, thorough, and detailed. Our home has had peeling problems due to improper siding application in the 80’s. Alex and his crew scraped, sanded, pressure washed, and primed taking special care to all areas in need of greater attention. They then applied the paint and the result is amazing. The house looks new again!! And they painted everything. Even things I would not have thought to do like the mailbox post and even taking the firewood out of its shed to paint the inside of the shed. We could not be more pleased. Paul Chalifourd will be the only painting contractor I turn to for all my future painting needs, inside and out.

I called Paul, after I found his name on Angie's List. He came out the next day to look at the work, gave us an estimate that was $500 less than the painter (not from Angie's list) who had postponed the job twice! Paul's crew began the work two days later. They did a phenomenal job. Everything looks brand new and was done with great attention to detail. They cleaned up everything. There were no paint chips or dust inside or outside. I will call Paul for all of our painting work from now on. Very grateful that he could help us in a timely manner and this reminded me why the membership in Angie's list is worth every penny! Reliable service!

Paul Chalifour was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The crew (led by Alex) were always on time, very professional, always extremely courteous and kept me in the loop on progress and time frame for job completion. I highly recommend them for your house painting needs.

The house was in really rough shape - peeling, rotting trim, dilapidated steps, and more! Alex kept me apprised every step along the way about what was happening! He is a perfectionist! The next door neighbor remarked that he had never seen such a thorough prep job. The carpenter, Marcio, did a very professional job rebuilding the front steps, shingling the front porch, and replacing rotten trim pieces. The house looks like it is brand new! This is the second big job that Paul has done for us - we heartily recommend Paul Chailfour Painting Contractor!

This is my second time using Paul Chalifour's painting company in the past 4 years. I was happy with the job he had done when I was selling my last home, so I called him for a quote to repaint my new condo. I called one other company as well for a comparison. Paul's quote was about $1,500 less, but that wasn't the only reason I'm pleased with the job. I needed to have this done quickly, between closing on the home and moving in. It's about 1700 square feet on two floors, and I was in a hurry because the carpet still had to be laid down after the painting and before the move in date. Paul was able to muster an army to attack this job. They showed up early Monday with what looked like 10 painters. I walked through the home with the "foreman" to point out exactly what was needed in each space, take down towel racks and closet shelves, flat paint here, trim paint there. Everything was done just as I had asked and the crew stayed late to finish by Tuesday night. I could not believe they did the job that fast. Moreover, there was a small area that was missing baseboard trim and they asked me if I wanted them to put it in. I said yes, assuming there would be an additional charge. When I went to pay for the job, there was not an additional cost for this "extra". That was a pleasant surprise! I should point out that the painters who work for Paul are all very nice and respectful of one's home. They take care to protect the floors etc and are good about cleaning up. Finally, a few days after I moved in, I notice a couple of small areas that needed touching up. (They were probably missed because it was dark when the painters were finishing). Paul offered to send someone the very next day do the touch ups and all is well. I'm happy with the work performed and I would recommend the company to others.

We had them from Angie's List. They didn't do the job right the first time. 3 times they came out to do the job right. He kept coming back and he did it until the job was done right. He came with another guy to do the job. They were professionally dressed. They had the painting shirt with the name of it. They were very nice. We had ceiling cracks. When they came, they put the repair material. They didn't sand it down right so I could look at the lump. When they painted it, they missed some areas. It was a good price.

They did not scrape the house properly but did not sand prior to painting. They did not prime everywhere they needed to, and they painted over exposed chips of paint, and sprayed paint on without brushes. It was a quick job and when asked to address issues, they were less than cordial. He reminded me that we did have a moisture issue that caused the paint to bubble in some places and that was not his fault. He was very responsive to the bubbling. Overall I would give a B-, and not a B, but that was not an option.

project started well. clean up went well but within a week the new paint was chipping and/or peeling from several areas. contractor was called, he came by and now used a moisture meter to determine we had a moisture problem. he would call back to confirm a date and time to return. keep in mind he has now been paid in full. Four weeks later and still no response. A second call was made after a complaint was filed and now he returned the call. Repainting was soon done but it took 4 weeks and a complaint filed before any remedial action was started. because of the poor response time we can not recommend this contractor.

The crew was excellent. Job was completed in less than 2 weeks despite some rainy days.They came on Saturday to make up for lost time. They did lots of extras at no cost such as painting my lamp post and staining the floor boards and ceiling of my farmers porch. The quality of the prep work and painting was outstanding. We are very pleased with the job and will definitely use Paul's company in the future for outdoor and indoor painting.

Paul and his crew did a wonderful job! The 1820's barn was in desperate need of painting. They scraped off most of the old paint, primed and painted. They also glazed the windows! The barn has been restored to better than new! They totally cleaned up the chips - just like they were never there! I heartily recommend Paul for any painting!

We are very pleased with the work that Paul's team completed. His team was professional and performed quality work throughout the project. Starting with the estimate, Paul was helpful in making recommendations to scope the work in a way that made sense to fit our current budget. Once the work began, Paul's team was always on schedule and produced high quality work, the front of the house now looks great. Also, communication with Paul was easy throughout, and we definitely plan to work with him on future projects and highly recommend his team to anyone else.

Our house is not the biggest or fanciest on the street, but it is now the MOST beautiful thanks to Paul and all his guys. Anderson, Lando and the rest of the carpentry crew worked to replace all the rotten wood around the entire house. They did a great job, and were willing to change and redo anything we asked. The painters, Alex, and his crew have made our house look new even though it was built in 1827. Alex even chased the dog, Ollie, around the neighborhood and returned him in his arms when Ollie escaped. All the guys were polite, respectful, and always working when they were here. Thank you Paul and crews.

Paul's paint crew lead by Alex showed early every morning and worked until 6 PM. They went over and above to ensure that paint was put on right and would last for years. they took on several extra tasks to make sure the project would be perfect. I am a very accomplished do-it-yourselfer with a critical eye. Paul's crew exceeded every expectation.

Paul came and gave a solid quote with a competitive price. We scheduled a start date and he let us know it would be a day or two later due to weather. His team came and scraped and washed day 1, they did not come day 2 (we knew) because of weather. On day 3 they completed prep and began priming. They spent the next 4 days priming and painting. Overall the job went well. They left the house clean everyday. His team was working fairly late most days. They replaced and repaired some shingles that were rotted etc with no added cost. We are happy with the work and have asked for a quote on some interior work we want done and our neighbor across the street came asking for his business card.

Received quality work at a fair price. They were on time, worked very hard and long days, and were very polite and professional. They pointed out some repair and shutter considerations and offered honest solutions. This is the second time that they have painted my house, and I would use them again.

We were long over due for some repairs and painting and the back of the house was the most neglected. When work started the carpenter worked for two days. Followed by one day for scraping, sanding and power washing, one day caulking, one day priming, one day top coat. Every crew was professional, friendly, and skilled at their job. Rather than watch the clock they worked each until the job was completed, which one day was 7:00pm. Every day the crew cleaned up the entire area and did a double check before they left. As important to us as the work being done is the communication and responsiveness of the contractor. Paul could not have been any better. He called me within hours of my first message. He showed up when he said he would, and the day that it was too wet to paint he came by to tell me. It was our good luck that Paul was able to be schedule us within a very short time. While Paul was not the lowest bid or the highest bid we received I am sure we got what we paid for in quality workmanship. This was such a great experience I don't know why we waited so long.

Great crew, was punctual, polite, clean-up after their work, and very hard working. The crew rang the door bell at 8 am on the dot, and worked incredibly hard without breaking until lunch, took a 30 min lunch break, and worked until the end of the day. They were fast, did a nice job painting, and cleaned up after themselves. In 40 hours, the crew got 2 coats of paint on the ceiling and walls in two large bedrooms with 16 foot ceilings, a stairwell, and bathroom. Very pleased with the crew and the work they did!

I am very happy with the attention to detail that was provided. The small cracks in the wall, nail holes and other imperfections were addressed before they painted. They were very professional and extremely neat. I highly recommend them to anyone considering a painter. You will be thrilled with the results.

There was a bit of a delay in getting the original work scheduled due largely to the severe winter weather. But once this hurdle was overcome and the work started the service provided was exceptional. Not only was the service performed to the highest standards of quality and excellence but our experience working directly with the crew leader Alex and his team was phenomenal. These fellows are true craftsman and as customers we were treated with the highest respect and courtesy. We trusted these craftsman from the outset adn our trust was never disappointed or misplaced. Truly I have never hired or worked with a more professional or respectful group of tradesmen. We initially contracted for interior painting work but somewhat unexpectedly we decided to paint the ful exterior of our house as well, and right at the height of the spring painting season. The owner assured us he could and would do the job in a timely manner and he followed through on his promise. The same team that completed the interior work returned to complete the exterior work and once again the service and quality was exceptional. We would highly recommend this company to anyone on the north shore of Mass looking for a high quality AND affordable painting contractor.

This is our second time using Paul and his crew. The first time was for exterior painting and carpentry. This winter we had interior water damage due to ice dams. We immediately called Paul for his assistance. He was good about putting together a quote right away and did a very good job dealing with our insurance company, which approved his quote without any reductions. Paul's crew of carpenters came out the day after the insurer approved the work and did a great job putting in insulation, drywall and re-painting the interior. In addition, we asked Paul's carpenter, Anderson, to replace our plastic shower guard with subway tiles. We were a little nervous since we were not sure about using a carpenter for tile work, but they showed us some examples of their previous work and checked with us every step of the way to make sure everything was the way we wanted it. The house has never looked better. Paul is now my go to for anything related to carpentry, painting or tiling.

Had bought the painting job via Angie's coupon. Due to communication messaging issues, the time frame for doing it at the sale price had dropped. Paul still honored the price. They did a beautiful job. Would highly recommend them.

The crew was professional and courteous. Quality work, good communication, and one of the best quotes we received. We had one issue with some windows opening after the project and he sent his crew back to fix the issue. Paul is definitely on our list of vendors and will do some work for us next year.

Painters came at exactly agreed time, worked fast and professional, cleaned up after themselves. Will use in the future

Paul's team of painters are excellent. They are hard workers, work efficiently, ensure that your home is protected while they work, including the laying of walkway runners, and clean up after completing each area of work. The end results are great. True professionals. Will definitely consider them for future painting projects.
