Wonderful experience.
Description of Work: I contacted Derrick for an estimate and heard back in a few days. He came out on a Saturday and was very thorough in his estimate. He answered all questions. He estimated three bedrooms, a hallway, foyer, master bedroom and master bath. We are going with everything but master bath and bedroom. His company will come tomorrow to start painting and it should take about a week. We are looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Description of Work: Derrick was great to work with. He painted the outside of our house and kept dealing with rain delays but followed up every day and even came on a Sunday when the rain had stopped. He followed up on every item we asked him for. He also painted 3 bathrooms and removed an old border which I know from experience was hard to remove. He fixed some damage from border removal and some nail pops in the ceiling.

Painting of cabinets and installation of countertop and faucet completed in two and one half days. Excellent work, very professional, he cleaned up before he left each day, very professional. Very pleased with the work completed, cabinets came out better than I could have imagined. Absolutely no complaints on work or service. I would certainly contact his company again for any addtional painting to be done.
Description of Work: Derrick came out and gave an estimate of the work I wanted done. Very reasonably priced, came back in two weeks to start the painting of kitchen cabinets, replaced counter top, installed sink and faucet, replaced hardware on caibinets and painted area behind new back splash.

Derrick is a amazing painter. He did a wonderful job on the island. He did above and beyond what we expected. Also, saved us money since we thought we might have to replace it. We would highly recommend him for all your painting needs.
Description of Work: We had our island repainted. I was debating on changing the island to a new one, Derrick suggested painting it. So happy we did. I love it.

100% happy with the backsplash. We absolutely love it. Derrick did a amazing job. He cleaned up after himself everyday. He is a very neat and clean person. So nice to have someone in your home that respects and treats it like their own. Derrick has done all most our whole house. Looking forward to having him back to start our basement.
Description of Work: Derrick designed and installed the tile backsplash in our kitchen. He really saved the day for me. I needed it done and was having a hard time finding someone that could do what I wanted.

They are going to do work starting next week. It was a free estimate. They answered all our questions. We felt comfortable with them. Actually, they offered more services for a better price. Everyone else wanted to charge extra for the trim, but they included that in the price. The guy who came out was very knowledgeable. He gave us a feedback and told us about the paint that we should use. They showed up right on time.
Description of Work: Great Lakes Decor Inc gave us an estimate for interior painting and painting the trim around two weeks ago.

Derrick helped me out of a hugh jam! We are having our hardwood floors redone and they couldn't do the steps. Derrick was able to come right out and not only paint the steps but matched them perfectly to the new hardwood floor color. Don't know what we would have done without him.
Description of Work: Had all the steps and landing painted.

Derrick and Vinnie did a great job! The front door looks like new. They started right on time and cleaned up everything when they were done. I had already used Derrick to paint the inside of my home, so I knew I would be happy. I would recommend Great Lakes Decor 100%.
Description of Work: We had the entrance way to our home painted and all the window sills.

It was a pleasure to have Derrick here every morning. This was a very big job. Derrick and his asst. Vinnie were complete professionals. They surpassed my expectations. Derrick is a perfectionist and it shows! They showed up every morning on time and ready to work. They cleaned up after themselves everyday when leaving. Derrick was very helpful to me with making some decisions as to what would look and work the best. I am a very picky person and we are 100 % happy with all the work we had done. So happy I had them come back and paint the exterior of our home. I was sad to see them leave.
Description of Work: We just purchased a home that needed everyroom painted. Most of the rooms had old wallpaper that needed to be removed . The walls need to be repaired before the new paint could be done.

I have a 2 bedroom rental condo which needed new interior paint since the previous tenants left the unit looking shabby with marks and holes in the walls along with several nail pops. I called Derrick Diacono at Great Lakes Decor Inc. who promptly came over to access the job and give an estimate on the work. We agreed on the price of $750.00 and scheduled the work to be done about 3 days later. Derrick arrived approx. 8am and began his work with another painter Vinnie. They worked very hard for 7 to 8 hours and did a beautiful job of patching and painting only what needed to be done, so as not to charge me for something I didn't need. They did do more than originally planned with no extra charge. The color was a perfect match. They painted several walls in each of the rooms along with ceiling paint and trim work. They used drop cloths throughout the house and kept the job very neat and organized. When finished, the condo looked and smelled like new. I felt like moving in there myself. It was amazing what a difference they made. It really popped! Derrick has done a number of jobs for me in the past and I have no hesitation calling him again or recommending him to others.
Description of Work: Interior paint touch-up and drywall patching and nail pop repairs in living room, kitchen, hall, bedroom and master bedroom and closets. Also trim and window molding.

Working with Derrick Diacono, and his associate Vinnie, was a great experience. When Derrick tells you they'll be starting at 8:30 AM, he means it!! He and Vinnie were always prompt. Not only did they do a fine painting job, they took the time to remove light fixtures and door hardware (something a previous contractor hadn't bothered to do). They did all this while having to endure our very hot upstairs (even though the AC was running, it couldn't keep up with 90 plus degree weather). All in all, our experience with Great Lakes Decor, Inc. was very positive. We will not hesitate to call on them in the future, nor recommend them to our friends.
Description of Work: Painted master-bedroom, master-bath, front hallway, stairway leading upstairs, and upstairs hallway. The job included scraping paint from the master-bedroom ceiling (from a previous botched handyman job), and patching/sanding problem areas.

We were preparing our house to put on the market for sale and needed some rooms repainted and two large cedar decks in need of stripping and staining. Also, a 14x14 ft. screened-in porch needed a new color. We also needed the base of our stair railing refinished. We called Great Lakes Decor, Inc. and Derrick Diacono dropped by with an estimate of $4200.00. We have hired Derrick in the past, at least 4-5 times, mainly for painting but also for wallpapering, deck refinishing, ceramic tile repair, and drywall repair. We agreed on the price and Derrick completed the work to our satisfaction. He did a professional job which made a big difference in the overall look of our home. Derrick has a great deal of experience and knowledge within his profession. His calm and friendly personality makes him comfortable to be around when working in our home. I have no concerns having him working in our home with or without me being there since he has shown me to be honest and trustworthy. He always works in a neat and organized manner and leaves his working area clean and tidy.
Description of Work: Painted two bathrooms, study, hallway, and den including trim and doors. Refinished base of stair railing. Stripped and stained two large decks and stained a screened- in porch.
