We were very impressed! The bathroom required some caulking above the shower and some wall repair due to water splashing from the shower. The master bath cabinets were not in great shape due to a previous paint job done by me with the wrong kind of paint. They removed the vanity doors and took them off site to sand and paint. Mat did such a beautiful job, They look like brand new. Everything was done perfectly. Mat and his employees were very professional. They were punctual, and Mat called or texted to keep us in the loop about any change in arrival time. We really appreciated that. He also was very flexible and helpful about working with our schedule, as we had guests coming from out of town. When we need additional painting done in the future, we will contact Mat.
Description of Work: We needed painting done in a bedroom, bathroom and vanity cabinets in the master bath

Response from The English Painters
You could have just answered my question on the website [Member Name Removed]. It is the reason it is there, and the reason I asked the question. This is a ridiculously busy time, as well as doing all the estimating, I actually work , painting, six, sometimes seven days each week. I apologize for wasting your time. Good luck with your project.

Excellent work! Very professional crew, neat and detail-oriented. Beautiful job with minor drywall repairs and getting a neat line over old dark paint at the textured ceiling. Great value for the money. Highly recommended!

English Painters did an excellent job. They were very professional and friendly. Their quote was by far the lowest of the three quotes I got.

They picked them up on a Thursday and delivered them the following Monday. I plan on having them paint 6 additional doors in the near future.
Description of Work: I had 9 interior doors painted. This project consisted of taking the doors to their shop and preping them, repairing any blemishes and priming and finish painting. This included pick up and delivery of the completed doors.

The English painters painted the entire inside of my new home. This included four bedrooms, a finished basement, kitchen family room living room and several bathrooms and closets. They did a fantastic job and I would definitely recommend them. They were prompt, courteous, professional, friendly, and flexible! They went above and beyond to make sure the rooms looked great.

These guys are easy to recommend. First they were prompt and met the schedule they promised. Second they were neat - not a drop of paint anywhere. They were careful around shrubs and foundation plants - nothing was damaged. They were fast - 3 days total. The siding looks brand new! We've received several compliments on the work. I would have no issue with providing a personal recommendation.
Description of Work: The English Painter painted 3 sides of the exterior of our house (one side has new siding).

These guys are great. The work was first rate, the job was completed in less time then I expected and Matt was very punctual. Not a drop of paint anywhere it wasn't supposed to be. I'd readily use Matt again and recommend them to anyone.

Mat and team were fantastic and I have already recommended them to a friend. We were in process of downsizing from one home to another and a window of opportunity opened to have a painter come into the home while it was vacant after close and before the move. Due to some complications, we did the search for a painter later than ideal and as I went down the List for highly rated painters, most were scheduled out too far. Mat was too, but offered to accommodate us on a weekend that fit our tight window so we booked the date. Unfortunately, our close was delayed and we could not paint that weekend and when I advised Mat, thinking I would be out of luck for a couple months, he made the offer to do it the following weekend. Despite the change from a vacant home to one full of furniture and boxes from a downsize move, Mat and team were able to do substantial prep (he correctly stated that the walls looked like a heard of Wildebeest came through; they were left in rough shape by prior owner), Mat and his team of pros worked a ton of hours over a Friday and Saturday to get the job done to perfection. I offered to have him raise the estimate due to need to move furniture and he was very reasonable in that regard and his work was worth every penny! I can be tough to please on things like this and I am used to being a bit underwhelmed so trust me when I say kudos to Mat and team and I would hire them again without hesitation.

The English painters were very professional, neat, and were willing to work around some construction chaos like boxes laying around the floors. They were able to get our custom colors and were quick. We will be inviting them back in the summer for staining our front door and trim.

What an great job! So much attention to detail. Highly organized, covered items and taped areas to keep clean, gave suggestions when asked, repaired unwanted holes, painted efficiently and thoroughly and cleaned up spotlessly. I will have them back in the Spring for other paint work.

Mat was wonderful. He made time in his schedule for this relatively small job when several other contractors would not. His charge was also a bit lower than other estimates, but more importantly, his work was excellent and he was prompt for every appointment. When a small section of ceiling required an extra coat, Mat returned immediately, no excuses. The ceilings look pristine now and we couldn't be more pleased. Well done, Mat!

Mat and his team did an amazing job. He showed up on time and his price was extremely fair to paint several rooms in our house. Mat is very knowledgable when it comes to paint selection as well, which was great. We will definitely be hiring him again.

I contacted Mat from the English Painters to provide an estimate on my interior painting project. Mat was on time and provided a competitive estimate to paint some very challenging walls in my living and dining rooms, hallways, and entryway. Mat and his team were very professional and completed the project on-time. We were pleased with the quality of Mat?s work and his painting knowledge and recommendations. I would hire the English Painters without hesitation.

Mat and his crew from The English Painters arrived on time and were eager to dig in to work. The job was completed in a very professional manner and ahead of schedule, allowing for the extra job of paining 2 additional rooms. They were extremely accommodating to us living on site during this very large renovation. They cleaned up at the end of each day, minimizing the mess. Mat used superior quality paint and was generous with his tips on techniques and ideas for future renovations. Mat was extremely easy to work with, never complaining about small revisions or my demand for perfection. I interviewed several other painters for this project, but none compared in their willingness or ability to tackle such a demanding job or to meet our tight schedule. I am grateful to the work colleague who referred me to the English Painters and have recommended them to many friends and family since.
Description of Work: Painted wood trim and doors throughout the house, including a wooden ceiling and wall. Painted walls of 2 large rooms with vaulted ceilings. Set up spray booth for dozens of doors in garage. Sprayed doors and trim of windows, base, crown and stairs in primer and 2-3 finish applications.

They arrived on time, and were done and gone in 6 hours. They moved furniture, patched any holes that needed patching, cleaned up after themselves, even going to so far as to offer to vacuum. These guys are fantastic, can't say enough good things about them. Next time I need some painting done, they will be my ONLY phone call!!!
