The project started with Rick coming out to give me a quote. I originally wanted the trim around the house wrapped in aluminum and the porch and garage painted, he recommended having it all done in aluminum, he said the difference in price was minimal and the aluminum would not need maintenance. He gave me several quotes, The trim on the house $4650 and $895 for the garage he also gave me a quote on my deck but I haven't decided when to do the deck yet. They came out the first day and we went over what they were going to do again, then they got started. The project took about two and half days. The workers, Luke, Spencer and Dan answered any questions I had and they were considerate of my work schedule, I generally sleep in the morning, they worked on the other side of house and on the garage in the morning when possible. They were very professional and helpful when I had questions. Luke recommended that I do around my upstairs patio door. I asked how much he said they would through it in for free for the little bit of noise they made in the morning. House looks much better especially the porch. I definitely liked the work crew and I will definitely hire this company again.
Description of Work: They wrapped the white trim around my two story house and garage in aluminum. They also did the under side of my porch in aluminum.

A section of aluminum siding was pulled away from the second floor east side of my house above the garage during a snow/wind storm in early February. Because of the weather, I did not notice the damage until late February. At that time I looked at Angies List to find a contractor to repair the damage. A special offer was in progress with Somerset Painting & Professional Improvements for $325 for an Inspection and 1 Hour of Aluminum or Vinyl Siding Repair. I purchased the deal over Angies List on 2/28. I was contacted by Naomi of Somerset on 3/3 and I emailed her some pictures of the damage. Luke of Somerset came out to my house on 3/9 to inspect the damage, but was unable to proceed with the repairs because of too much snow on the roof of the garage. Luke came out again on 3/12 and was able to reattach the damaged section, but he determined that other sections were still loose. Finally, on 3/23, Luke came back to the house and was able to complete the job. The total repair time took about 3 hours. There was no additional charge from Somerset.

I am very pleased with results. They did a fantastic job. They worked continuously throughout the day. They were very neat cleaning up nicely at end of each day. They were respectful of my furniture and all of my items taking care of covering them up. The only things I can say slightly critical would be I was told there would be 2 painters for the job each day and would complete in 3 days. The second painter was not able to come until the 2nd day and it took 3,and half days to complete. All in all I would highly recommend this company.

It went well. The painters did a great job and cleaned everything up afterwards. The only hitch was that I already had some paint that I requested that they use for the basement but they used their own (it was the same brand of paint) and that cost me a few hundred dollars extra.

Please call me on my cell 312.613.8323 so we can discuss the paint you have left over. If I remember correctly, it's not tinted. I'll be able to return it for you on my account and give you credit for it.

The crew was professional and experts at their craft. I was very impressed with the amount of effort they put into the prep work for the staircase. Nearly a day and a half was spent sanding and preparing any damaged areas so that best possible results could be achieved for painting. During the job I broke a stair, and Eric had a carpenter out to fix the problem that week. Stairs now look and work better than they have in years!

I am extremely pleased with the result. The ceilings and walls are now smooth and in perfect shape. It looks like a different house! They agreed to replaced window sills that other companies refused to do. Their contract included a detailed checklist of what they would be doing, which I liked. They paid attention to all my requests. While the price seemed a little high I think it was worth it.
Description of Work: Significant repair of ceiling and wall plaster.The ceiling area in the hallway had a "cottage cheese" texture. One of the bedroom ceilings had a lot of waves. There were a lot of wall repairs needed due to shelving being placed on a lot of walls. They replaced eight window sills that were in very bad shape. Painted approximately 440 sq ft (3 rooms and hallway) of main living area.

came on time and gave a reasonable quote. however, when it came time to paint I called them and said it was predicted to rain.I wanted to postpone it. they insisted that it was fine and that the paint dries so fast it wouldn't matter. Well it did matter and the paint bleed down onto the brick after the rain. in streaks just under the corners of the windows. i called them immediately and they sent someone out with the power washer to try and wash it off. I DID NOT HELP at all and to this day i can still see the streaks.

I just spoke in person with [member]. She was delightful. I told her if we had known it was unresolved it would have been remedied immediately. She said she was sorry about the review but i said she was right - it needed to look better and would be taken care of just as soon as weather permitted. :)

We chose Somerset based on their excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. Adam, Chad, and crew were great to work with -- pleasant and professional, and their work is top notch. The job took a bit longer than we expected, but for good reason -- it was done over the end of December and into January. There were holidays and bad weather (extreme cold, snow, ice) in the mix. Adam did a great job of explaining options, making sure he understood what we wanted, and made good suggestions.
Description of Work: Tore off old aluminum siding and trim, added insulation, and re-sided the house with vinyl siding (and new aluminum trim & gutters). They also added a new window where I'd always wanted one.

Every one of the contractors were amazing!! The whole process from start to finish was very professional. They called me back promptly from my initial call and got a quote to me very quickly. The painters worked long hours and checked with me to make sure everything was perfect and exactly what I wanted. Very friendly and professional! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who needs any painting done. The carpenters that came to do the wood working and door framing were also great. They are very gifted in their craft and had creative ideas to help make everything look beautiful. Overall- Highly recommended!!
Description of Work: Painted the entire exterior of my house including brick, siding, shutters and front door. They also did small wood repair, re-fraimed an exterior door, expanded decorative post on front porch and put in newel post.

Excellent job, great team. I was relocating from Connecticut and wanted to get the work done before my furniture arrived. Rick and the team were able to accommodate the schedule, and completed all three rooms in one day. The work was impeccable, and the place looks fantastic. The guys were very friendly and very very professional. Will definitely hire them again.

Rick came in and gave us an estimate and what the work would entail. When they guys showed up on time and started work, I thought it would definitely take 2 days. They did an awesome job with the paint and fixing some rough patches and done in 1 day. Walls look great! We will definitely use Rick and Somerset Painting in the future for our upcoming projects! Thank you Rick and crew!

We had to do a complete remodel of our basement due to the August flood. After working for months of remodel, we had Somerset come in and paint our newly exposed wood ceiling black, which was a job we could have never done ourselves. This was definitely a job for the professionals. The results were AMAZING -- better than I could have imagined! Then they primed both cement and new drywall, with 2 different colors. We originally were just going to have them stop there, but it was such a great job that we had them continue on and paint the walls and trim for us. They were here on time and on schedule -- and professional and talented and easy to work with! We typically paint ourselves but after all the work with the remodel I am glad we hired Somerset to come in and get the job done! It was worth every single penny -- they saved up so much time and saved our sanity! I would recommend them to anyone -- and we are going to keep them in mind for future jobs as well.

Jim and his partner were polite, responsible and their quality of work was exceptional! They were very neat and cleaned up nicely at the end of the job. I would recommend this company a hundred times over! I am definitely using them in the future for all our painting needs.

We needed to get our house painted before the winter because we plan to sell the house in early spring. Somerset worked hard to accommodate us. Their workers were prompt talented, and worked very hard. The resulting paint job was perfect, everything they said they would do and more. Lots of prep work, lots of difficult areas to paint. We would and will use them again without hesitation.

Rick was very prompt, professional and knowledgeable. We have not had the repairs performed yet as we plan on making additional repairs at the same time (replacing windows along with the siding) and need to save up some additional money. We definitely plan on calling Rick back for an estimate on the entire project.
Description of Work: Rick with Somerset Improvements gave us an estimate to replace siding that was damaged by a wind storm. While on site, he also made some temporary repairs at no cost. He also noticed some brickwork in need of repair and recommended a mason he has worked with before who came out the same day to provide an estimate on that work.

I wanted my house painted and caulked before bad weather came. The painters worked around bad weather and never stopped! I got what I paid for--- a professional good paint job! My house looks fresh and clean and there is no paint chips or mess left behind. They even went beyond the call of duty and fixed trim on my garage door and around my windows. The owner inspects and checks on the job frequently. The owner, Rick Hartsell really works with you to assure your satisifaction. What a professional company and the cost is WELL Worth it! In this day and age it is really nice to know that a company like Somerset is there. I would recommend them to my sons and neighbors without fear.I

This was a home repair domino that kept growing. Eric and the Somerset crew helped me navigate these repairs with clear vision of what needed to be done and when. They were very attentive to what my needs were and keeping me fully informed of the work progress. Their fees were reasonable. I felt very confident after each job was done that I was receiving quality service.
Description of Work: Somerset Painting and Home Improvement was recommended to me via Angie's List Snap Fix for a gutter problem I was having. They called immediately, set up an appt at my convenience within two days the gutters were replaced and additional gutter issues addressed. Eric Regan was my contact at Somerset and he arranged for the gutter services. I had some tuck pointing needing to be done on outside bricks and he arranged for that to be done by the best mason I've ever seen, Nash. Within two days my gutters were fixed and my bricks repaired. I showed Eric my 12 foot door wall where the doors were getting difficult to open and shut. He brought out his construction carpenter and it was determined the I Beam was compromised and would have to be replaced. This was a major job. Within a week Eric's crew was here, prepared my home for as little dust as possible and began the work. After the beam was removed and replaced, the dry waller came to repair the dry wall. Then Eric arranged for the painter to come and paint. The painter and dry waller were very methodical and attentive to having this repair be unnoticeable blending in perfectly with the rest of the ceiling/walls/trim. I never had to do anything except work with Eric on convenient times. All the crews came when they said they would, did quality work and cleaned up leaving my home well cared for.

Rick was able to fix the problem quickly on his own. He went out of his way to make sure it was taken care of the same day because he wasn't sure how soon he would be able to come back for such a small job. He was friendly and charged me a very fair price for the work completed.

I got several estimates for this job before picking Somerset. One company just dropped the quote at the front door. Another came in much lower than Somerset. The reason we chose Somerset is because we know that "you get what you pay for". We wanted the job done right the first time and we wanted to work with a company we felt comfortable with. From the first interaction, I truly felt they cared about our business and making sure we were completely satisfied. Every single person who worked on our house was friendly, hard working, and polite. I always felt comfortable asking questions about what they were doing, or why something looked the way it did. They answered all of my questions and I felt confident in the job they were doing. We are having them come back to paint and fix the wall on an interior room. We would rather pay a little more and know that the job is going to be done right. I would recommend Somerset to anyone thinking about getting their house painted. They are a great company to work with. They provide high quality work in a timely manner.
Description of Work: We had Somerset paint the entire exterior of our house. They also stained our front door, rust proofed and painted our lentils, replaced many areas where there was rotted wood and replaced our shutters.
