Meticulous Painting & Drywall

It was ok. The wallpaper was removed and so was most of the glue. However, the wall was not prepped for painting like we we thought it would be.

I purchased the deal of the day for $99 and the company responded to one email and when I asked if they could do additional work and provide an estimate they never responded. I have sent several emails and never get a response.

Excellent! No complaints at all.

We wanted to hire him for all over painting. Have tried to contact him several times. We even purchased the paint he recommened for us only for him not to show up. Gave him several chances and no feedback.

I took off work to in order to have this work done. He failed to show for the appointment with no call as to why. I called and he said he was sick. I decided to get a refund from Angie's List because of poor communication.

Overall, the experience was great! Lee does have some scheduling challenges...as you might notice when reading some other reviews. He rescheduled with me twice, but was polite and professional on the phone when doing so. Since I was not under any time constraints for getting the work done, it wasn't a big deal for me. Lee painted my dining room from a deep red to a light green. He took great care to prep the walls and protect my furniture and wood floors. The room looks great! I told Lee that I wanted my hallways painted and he was able to fit me in the following day. While I had to go to work, I felt completely comfortable having Lee let himself into my home and do the work without me there. I popped in once during the afternoon, but had to leave again. Lee finished the work, tidied up and let himself out. He even turned on the porch light for me since he knew I would be returning after dark. Lee is very friendly, trustworthy and professional. I am very pleased with the new look of my walls and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lee. It was worth the wait of having things rescheduled!

Jeff, painter, did an excellent job of preparing walls for painting. painting to perfection using the brush to cut in the job and finish with a roller. He was able to cover the walls completely with one coat (amazing).

The only "issue" was punctuality. We were not in a hurry to have this done so we were able to deal with the delays. Lee is very professional and polite. great guy that does great work. We used an Angies list BIG DEAl and were very happy. We had prepped the walls although the deal included this- we just wanted to do it ourselves. He came, taped off the room , placed his tarps and painted. He came around 10:30 and left at 7pm. He noticed that some caulking was needed under the crown moulding and did not charge extra for that. He gave the walls two coats. Looks great. I would recommend him but not if you have severe issues with punctuality. The job he did certainly made that easy to overlook for us.

I needed a single, tall wall painted for this Big Deal. He said it would cost extra for change of rollers and trays for the two different colors. I told him I'd be glad to buy those for him since I was wanting the different colors on the wall. We had agreed there would be an additional price for the height of the ceiling. Originally, we scheduled for Monday, April 8th. I set aside the whole day for Lee, but he called on Monday to tell me that he needed to go to traffic court and would have to reschedule. I told him I could be there Wednesday afternoon and he said he would send his best guy, Jeff, to do the work. When Jeff arrived, he said he could not do the work for the amount quoted. He said it would take him all day to do the paint job and he couldn't complete in the half day on Wednesday. He said he would need to come back a second time and wouldn't be able to due to gas money and work to be done. They increased the price again and I agreed to it even though I didn't find it fair. Jeff just stared at the wall and then called Lee back. He said he was not going to do the job and Lee should refund me. I have called and emailed Lee, but haven't heard back. I told him I wasn't mad and just wanted to resolve the situation. I never heard anything so I have had another provider come out to do the painting.

I wad kept informed when an appointment had to be changed and he was prompt and did a great job.

Had to reschedule due to provider twice. Wallpaper stripping went very well. Requested estimate for follow up paint job. Never heard back from them.

They were a challenge to schedule but once they were here they did a fine job.

I purchased a Big Deal for 1 room of painting, and I emailed Meticulous Painting to set up a time. Lee was very responsive and put me on the calendar for a Friday (which was what I requested) a few weeks out (March 22). Around 9 or 9:30pm on March 21 he left me a message apologizing that he was unable to come on the 22 because a previous job had run over. I didn't get the message, but he called again at 8am on Friday morning (he was supposed to come at 9am) to see if I'd gotten the message - and I appreciated his concern. We rescheduled for Monday the 25 at 9am. He called Monday morning and said he was running late, and arrived about an hour and a half later. He did call again to update me on his delays. He painted our basement (1 room) with one coat of BM paint that we'd supplied. We have a closet and bathroom in the basement (1 door each) which the previous owners had painted the same color of the walls, and when I asked if he could do those too, he apologized and said no, it would be an extra charge (about $25). I understood, but was a little surprised considering the delay on Friday and that morning (and we ended having a delay the following morning, too). After working for a few hours, he told me he would need to return either later that afternoon or the next day to put a second coat on the edges. I requested the following morning. The next morning he was about 45 minutes late, though he did call to let me know. Overall, he did a very nice job painting and kept me updated when he was delayed, but the delays were inconvenient. He was very apologetic (and explained that he had a large number of customers b/c of the Big Deal) and as he was leaving on Tuesday, he offered to do another room for $99 because of the delays and such.

Very good job. Would recommend to anyone needing this kind of work

I made a point to call before I bought the deal because I wanted to make sure he could do the work when I needed it done. He said it would be about 3 weeks before he could come out & that was ok. I bought it & called him the next morning to schedule. He told me that it would take twice as long as originally expected - about 5 weeks instead of 3. I'm not why the timeline was changed but requesting a refund from Angie's List. I would consider using them again - depending on the timeline.

On balance, this vendor was a huge disappointment for many reasons: The Good 1. The vendor maintained good telephone contact. 2. The vendor left my place clean and tidy. 3. The vendor adjusted his three-hour on-site tme to allow for the work interruptions detailed in The Bad section below. 4. The vendor was polite. The Bad 1. The service date was rescheduled twice, once only 13 hours before our appointment time. 2. In spite of the multiple reschedules, the vendor arrived 30 minutes late, though he did call to tell me he was running late. 3. The vendor came without necessary equipment (Sections of the ceiling where the border was installed are vaulted. This was emphasized 3 times in telephone calls yet the vendor arrived with only a waist-high step ladder. He had to contact a colleage to have an extension ladder delivered.) 4. The vendor fielded numerous telephone calls while he was working. 5. The vendor interrupted his visit to go to the drug store to purchase allergy meds. 6. The vendor interrupted his work to hold a 25-minute meeting with his colleague in my driveway. The Ugly 1. Approximately one-third of what I expected to be accomplished was actually accomplished. 2. I had to clean the rim of my toilet AND FLUSH IT after the vendor used it!!!!!! The multiple interruptions extended his on-site time which greatly messed up my schedule since I had anticipated him being in my home for only 3 hours, not 4 1/2!

I purchased a "Big Deal" for three hours of wallpaper removal. I delayed usig the coupon because of the holidays. Lee was very accomodating about scheduling the work at a time that was convenient for me. He did an excellent job of removing the wall paper in a small bathroom. I was so happy with the work, I had him remove the textured ceiling in the same bathroom and get the walls paint ready.

Job started in October and ended in January due to Thanksgiving and Christmas in way. Wallpaper removal in kitchen and Bath went well. Painting in kitchen fine. Other painting went slowly but well. The main problem I had that my husband did not have was punctuality and call backs. Lee would state he would be here at 9:00 AM and would not show up from an hour to 2 hours later or he would state he didn't have us on the books for that day. We had a couple of mix ups along this line.

We found this company on Angies List. My husband called him, Lee immediately returned the call. He and his co-worker were punctual for the estimate appointment, punctual for the date of work, and the next day to complete work. Meticulous they are! Very extensive and impressive prep work, they pick up after themselves very nicely.We were impresesd the products they used to repair the sheetrock. It was different and much more adequate than the last repair person's materials. This repair job is literally SEAMLESS. Then, we had them paint the ceiling and the room. Again, another outstanding job. Very close attention to detail, very pleasant experience. I HIGHLY recommed them and will recommend them to many people.

At the end of the 4 hours he wasn't done stripping the wallpaper because it was particularly stubborn & old. Since it was peeling I thought it would come off easily but I guess not - He couldn't have known before what it would take though & I understand that. I did pay him to come back the second day to get the rest of it off & do the wall repair work. He was a really nice guy, seemed to be knowledgeable, & follow-up later to make sure I was happy.

EXCELLENT! Lee did a great job in the DR and Kitchen, he covered the areas as needed and was "meticulous" in the painting and cleanup after the work was completed. My wife and I will definitely be calling him to do some additonal painting in the near future.

Overall, Lee did a great job and I'd recommend him to others.

He worked diligently with his radio on and stayed about an hour extra to finish the job. He did not have time to make the wall ready to paint--that will take another trip. He gave me some good ideas on how to save money on my bathroom remodel project.

Master bedroom was to be re-painted in same color and make of paint. Prep work had already been done ahead of scheduled paint day, which included covering up any holes and moving furniture to middle of room. There was a bit of a challenge to get this work scheduled which resulted in a delay. The work, for the most part, was completed OK with exception of a couple small areas that were missed due to using same paint color; however, it did take a while to complete as only a wide paint brush was used.

Very well . Was a pleasure to work with during the project.
