Description of Work: I've used Jacobsen on several occasions in the past for interior work. They are currently doing an exterior project on my house. They are using a big crew and should be done by the end of the week. We are also getting new gutters installed and Jeff coordinated with the getter supplier to get the fascia painted after the old gutters were removed and before the new ones are installed. Jeff always takes time to explain what he's going to do and why. I've always appreciated his professionalism, courtesy and quality of work.

Response from Jacobsen Painting
I made "3"separate attempts to contact [member name removed], including calling her while on vacation with my family. We left each other several messages but were unable schedule a time that worked for both of us to meet. I do the best I can to schedule new customers, but will not leave a current customers job to do it.

Went very well.
Description of Work: We had Jeff and his crew paint most of our main living area. Ceilings, trim and walls were all done. Prep work was extensive, as some of our walls needed repairing. We appreciated the care that was taken to protect our funiture and cupboards. Jeff was very helpful when we were planning what to do. I would recommend him to all who want a very thorough job done. He is very particular that the work is done right. After finishing, he returned to do touch ups after flooring people were here. He earned an Aplus from both of us.

They did a great job. They showed up on time everyday, did not smoke, cleaned up everyday, friendly to kids and dog. Overall, best contractors we've ever had work on/in our home. We will use them exclusively for future jobs and can't recommend them more strongly. Excellent job in quality, timeliness, and cost.

My wife and I were talking about them about 5 days into their work. I said I can't find one thing I would want that's different in the way they did their work and she agreed. They were pleasant in demeanor, always there fresh in the morning and worked later than I would. Jeff has a good way of explaining things and is always attentive to good communication. Thoroughly excellent job from top to bottom. I'm 60 and have had a lot of painters in my life and these guys are at the top.
Description of Work: Jeff and Charley mitigated lead based paint in living room and prepped for painting. Painted trim, walls and ceiling in l.r., upstairs hallway, and ceilings throughout rest of downstairs. Brought in plasterer for some leak damage.

Jeff painted a huge 3000 sq ft room with 16' ceilings - had it done in a couple of days so we could move in! Also repaired some badly damaged walls and put up new walls in 2 rooms (again, with 16' ceilings). A year later, we hired him again to repair our leaky roof - he took the time to correct some structural defects - and the building hasn't leaked since! We appreciate his careful work and doing what's necessary to make sure the problem won't reappear later.
Description of Work: We bought a commercial building that needed remodeling and painting - Jeff handled all aspects of this for us - sprayed 38 gallons of paint; put up and finished drywall, etc. He does beautiful work!

I had seen the wonderful attention to detail that Jeff has in his interior painting and wanted a really good paint job on some reclaimed furniture that our family would be giving heavy use. Jeff was easy to contact and communicate with. Jeff took the furniture all at the same time and returned it all together. He communicated his progress along the way and stayed within his estimate even when the job took more time and effort than he had anticipated. I expect these pieces will continue to wear exceptionally well with the great care he has put into the paint job.
Description of Work: Jeff did some furniture spraying for me. I had two very old walnut bookcases and four chairs. The bookcases are finished in a satin white paint. They look gorgeous. Jeff did the job perfectly with great attention to detail. The bookcases bled through the white paint frequently during painting and Jeff did extra work to make sure the finished product was up to his standards while keeping his charge the same as his estimate. The chairs were a dark brown to start with and also quite old. Jeff helped me choose a great color for them that would really make the design pop. The finish is beautifully smooth and has already withstood the kind of wear and tear that dining chairs get from our family. I am beyond impressed.

Met with Jeff regarding various painting projects we need done around the house. We were very impressed with his professionalism! Additionally, he offered us options for the work we need done and had no problem sharing his insights based on his own experience. We are definitely going to hire Jacobsen Painting and look forward to working with them!

Jeff does a rock-star job. Everything he did looks amazing. We weren't happy with the first paint color we picked for the den [and yes, we didn't realize that until the entire room was painted] and Jeff very patiently repainted it again until we got it right. The walls, ceiling, trim, and barn beans were all different paint colors.The old brick fireplace took four coats, which he sprayed. It looks smooth and perfect. Our 1920's house takes a beating and everything he painted was left looking smooth and sparkling and lovely. Jeff is professional and takes pride in his work. He showed up when he said he would and really kept in touch with us throughout the whole process. I work at home and he was very easy to have around and nice to our kids.
Description of Work: This summer, Jeff painted every single surface of our den: wood paneled walls, drywall and barn-beam ceiling, wood shelves and window trim, and gigantic brick fireplace. He also painted the entire interior core of our house -- walls and trim upstairs and downstairs hallways, plus stairwell and all doors. This January, we had him repaint all the trim in our dining room plus spray the brass light fixture in that room.

Response from Jacobsen Painting
Working with the member was a new and unique experience. We were able to help him do the touch ups he needed in order for him to quickly show his house and move to Texas. The member had a very nice home that had begun to show some signs of early aging as many new homes do. We were able to repair the splitting cracks in the drywall, fill nail holes, paint his entire master bath, and do touch ups keeping his costs as low as possible.

At first I though I had made a huge mistake, as I called Jeff's number and did not receive a reply for almost a week...however he did return my call and had been out of town celebrating a very important milestone in his life, so that was very understandable. Jeff promptly came over the next night, was very professional, and went through why what I wanted to do would cost me more than I was willing to spend, gave me some suggetions on what to do, and in the end came up with a quote that was at what I wanted to spend. He spent 2 full days( didn't finish up until 7:15pm the 2nd day!) completing the job, so I feel I really got my moneys worth from a labor standpoint . The end result looks fabulous! I am so happy with the results. I will use Jeff in the future for other painitng prodjects I have.

Sorry, but my new bride made me go to Hawaii and wouldn't let me do any work! I really had a great time getting to know the member and was able to help him get the paint job that he need for a price that would fit his budget. I have found that Angie's List has been a great tool for helping people who are relocating find someone like me that they can rely on! Congrats on becoming a new Grandpa !

Jeff does meticulous work. We gave him an open-ended directive: fix whatever needs fixing, since we only wanted to do this kind of repair ONCE. We were hoping it was just the skylights that had been leaking, but once the shingles were removed, we saw the damage was much more extensive. Not only did Jeff replace the damaged roof deck and shingles - he took the time to correct the initial building flaw that had led to the leaking in the first place. The finished work blends in perfectly! He also built a railroad-tie retaining wall that should withstand a nuclear attack :-) We are very pleased with his work and recommend him highly!
Description of Work: Jeff has done a great job of painting/drywalling for our business in the past; but this time we needed a leaky roof repaired. We bought this building a year ago, so had no idea how long or why it was leaking... but trusted Jeff to do the job right. In the end, he had to remove some skylights and about a dozen sheets of rotted roof deck where 2 building sections were poorly joined; then reshingle the roof. We also asked him to build a 50' long retaining wall; and backfill with sand.

Jeff, the painter, did high quality work, provided good advice and suggestions when asked and did extra work beyond what our insurance claim covered for a reasoanble price. We wished we could have moved back home sooner, but we did ask him to do additional work.
Description of Work: Almost all of our ceilings and walls had to be repainted as part of a plaster repair job covered by our insurance. We contracted Jeff to paint 3 additional rooms and doors.

Response from Jacobsen Painting
The members were a wonderful family to work with. Unfortunately they had so much water damage from a previous roof job that they actually had to move out for all the repairs. Above Roofing came in and fixed the poor roof, master plaster patcher did an awesome job on repairing the plaster, and we painted nearly the entire interior of their home. We finished the project with a couple nice accents, we painted the front and rear entry doors cottage red. It really pulled the exterior together. Thanks

Jeff had excellent communication and was able to come by and give a quote right away. He was very pleasant and had great suggestions for the rooms we wanted painted. Jeff also was right on time. He had the qualities that made us feel comfortable letting him work in our home. Due to our tight deadline and limited finances we ended up going with another company. We hope to work with Jeff in the future.

Thanks for leaving feedback for us on Angie's List. This will be very helpful for future clients. I was a little concerned with the "B" price rating. The price only included time and materials. Also we had talked about using very nice zero VOC products from Benjamin Moore, and low VOC trim paint from Grahams. These are quite expensive, and are prices that I can not control. Overall I would be very happy to work with you again. Congratulations, and good luck with the wedding!

Jacobsen Painting has been extremely easy to work with. I really felt like he listened to my ideas and helped me to make them functional. The quality of his work is well worth the cost!
Description of Work: I have contracted Jacobsen Painting to work in both of my last two homes. In my previous home we remodeled the entire kitchen. Jeff built 35 custom cabinet doors to reface my cabinets. He took out 4 foot florescent lights in the ceiling, repaired the drywall, and installed new recessed lighting. I had him re-tile my shower and install recessed lighting in that bathroom as well. In my current home Jeff just built a brand new stairway banister and balcony railing system. He pulled the carpet in the master bath and tiled the floor, as well as tiled my entryway. All the the railings and spindles were pre-finished and sprayed by Jacobsen Painting. At the same time we sprayed 22 of my interior doors. I am now working on plans to have Jeff raise my upper kitchen cabinets and tile my backsplash.

Jeff was willing to come to my home within a day or two of my call to give me an estimate. He was very helpful with suggestions of what type of paint would work best for this high-traffic area and how to handle some rough spots created by poor workmanship in the past without adding on a lot of extra cost (this is an area where the original house meets a later added on section and the trim was not properly finished). He estimated the work to take two days, arrived on time on the day he said he would, finished up and cleaned up before he left. Since I was out of town on the day that he finished the job, he followed up with an e-mail to me explaining where he had left the extra paint and how he had labeled it and thanked me for my business. I would definitely use him again for future painting projects.
Description of Work: This painter was recommended by my local hardware store. He came out within two days of my call and gave me what I thought was a reasonable estimate for the work required. The area needed a lot of prep work and was a repaint of pine paneling which has to be brushed or sprayed because of the grooves.
