This is the second time I hired Prairie Painters. They gave me a bid and I hired them to prep and paint the exterior of my home. I originally hired them 15 years ago. They did a good job then but I used another company to paint our home when it needed it 8 years ago. (I chose a company that was a little lower price) This year, we needed the job done again. I got 2 bids and chose Prairie Painters to do the job again, this time. I was not happy with the last company.This year, the job turned out to be more of a challenge than expected. After power washing, they realized that the old paint came off more than expected. They talked me through the options and we chose to change the type and amount of primer used. The price went up a little but it was my choice to use the more expensive primer because we didn't believe the paint would cover all the bad spots. (It really was a mess) They finished the job and we are very happy with the outcome.The crew was experienced and professional. Very clean.If I changed anything, it would be to not wait so long to repaint the house next time. It added cost and made it a larger challenge.

We did a major remodel/addition. David Flick (Prairie Painters owner) was very easy to work with and had good knowledge of what paints/colors to suggest. We learned that interior colors when applied look more dark than the color charts, and exterior colors look more light than the color charts. Dave warded off bad choices by doing test patches of the colors we chose, we changed our selection for the master bedroom and the exterior using this procedure. Also, David recommended driving by a house he painted a couple of years ago, and that is the color we went with. Davids' crew (Scott and Tony) made a good recommendation on staining of the new windows to match the prefinished oak trim. Being winter made it more of an effort, but no problem, leave the window open and seal the entire window on the outside with plastic. Looks really good. Tony suggested adding coving to the baseboards in the existing bedroom, which he did, and it looks much better. Scott asked my wife what color the master bath ceiling should be, so white it was, until I got home and said no, it should be the same as the walls. He said no problem and redid it. They all demonstrated they wanted us to be satisfied, and we are.
