Dave and his team were very good to deal with. The work was excellent and performed in a very timely manner. The job took less time than we had thought - only a day and a half. The crew was very courteous and careful with everything. I will definitely recommended them to friends and would use them again in the future.

I liked them a lot. They are very, very good. l may have suggested them to a neighbor. I don't remember their price, but it was really reasonable. They did not do trim because it did not need it. It was just the sides.

Dave was quick to respond to our request for a quote. When he came out, his questions and approach was one in which gave us great confidence. He would have used great products and could have had us scheduled when we were seeking. We will be using another firm, however it was a difficult choice. This service provided upon good choices.
Description of Work: Workd with Dave on a quote to paint most of our home. In total would have been nine rooms.

It went badly from the start. We had agreed that the repairs/painting would start on Friday, May 8th. Was contacted that they couldn't start because of another job that had to be finished. Next start date was Monday the 11th. The weather was bad so nothing could be done. That's understandable. Tuesday was fine but no work was done which was annoying. A day wasted. Was told that night that they would start next day. Next day they didn't show and wasn't emailed until lunchtime that they wouldn't be coming. Was told again that they would start the next day, thursday. No show again on Thursday with no phone call or email for an explanation. Didn't get emailed until after 6 that night. Was told again that they would be at my house today, the 15th with a full crew plus extra help. My wife took off the day and waited and waited. Didn't get a phone call until after 10am that they were on their way. By that point we'd had it. We'd taken apart the screen porch and garage to be ready. So we couldn't use the screen porch or garage the entire week while we waited for the painters to come. I called Dave and told him that we'd use somebody else at which point he told me he's on his way over to start. Sorry, too late. I contacted another painting company through AngiesList who will come by next week for an estimate. Who I hope will be there at my house on the day and time we've agreed on. Weather I can understand. Not showing up, that's different. Especially for a job that was almost $5000.00. I've never had an experience like this before and I hope that I never will again.
Description of Work: We had spoken with Dave about doing the exterior of our house including the interior of the garage.

Response from Distinctive Coatings
We're very sorry we couldn't make this work for this customer. We anticipated starting as soon as the proposal was accepted but the customer requested more time to prepare. We try to make it very clear to our customers that with exterior work sometimes there can be delays, mainly from weather issues of which we have no control. We try to look at forecasts to make sure we have quality painting days to maximize cost for us and the customer. There are things that can delay our start and we make a concerted effort to communicate any issues like this with our customers. We were literally on our way out to start and complete this job when customer told us not to bother. We are disappointed we couldn't add this customer to our list of outstanding reviews of which i'm very proud of. I again thank him for the opportunity and wish him well in the future.

I do not not know David or anyone who works for Airless. This was my first job with the company. I waited about 30 days to write this report just in case I found any problems. I got three quotes for the job based on Angie's List reviews. Except for rain, once David and his team started, he and his team worked all day, every day until the job was completed. The job took about 5 or 6 work days. David was on-site most days, actually doing the work. The painting took place in November 2014 Positives: + David is very conscientious, friendly, low key and easy to work with. +He provided insurance and Workman's Comp info right away. + Price included Sherwin Williams Duration paint which Consumer Reports rated pretty highly for my needs. + David helped us pick the right colors and even painted trial areas with several colors which really helped us "dial in" the right colors (the builder did not leave the original paint color information). + Excellent attention to detail. Trim lines were flawless. Paint application was nicely uniform. + His team members (5 or so) are respectful and work quietly with music at a low level. + No sloppy work, no problems with paint on my flagstone or cement driveway. + 100% payment at the successful completion of the job + I think the screen porch was a real challenge because of the way the trim pieces and screening are fastened together. I think many of the trim pieces are new. No additional charge. The porch looks like new. + David even changed a burned out spotlight bulb for me. Negatives: -None. Summary: I have worked with may professional painters before. My experience with Airless was excellent. I will use this company again.
Description of Work: Airless painted my entire house with Sherwin Williams Duration paint. Three colors plus varnish for porch ceilings. My house is approx 7 yrs old and we decided to stay with the same colors. Work included painting a screened porch at the rear and the front porch and a small pool mechanical building. Job included powerwashing and calking the entire house prior to painting.

The best experience I have ever had with a service company , on Angie's List and otherwise .The owner Dave Balkus started the experience by getting back to me within a day or so , which is the biggest problem with most companies today if they get back to you at all. The quote process quickly followed , Dave came out and looked at the job and followed up with a very preside quote . All of our contact was via email after the first phone call. The job started a few weeks later. Some of the reasons for choosing Airless Paint was their website and the long time employees Dave uses not day laborers. And the fact that Dave does a large part of the painting. The quote also had a lot to do with selecting Airless Paint , price wise as well as very detailed. The crew guys would get to house 30 minutes before start time each day to ready for the workday and took a very short lunch break. They were very easy to communicate with and did a great job painting and cleaning up each day . Dave and all of his crew went above and beyond what any company has ever done to make sure the job was done correctly and in a timely manner and take care of any issues or questions I had. I would strongly recommend Airless Paint for their professionalism quality and price . I will use them again .

Both estimate and job was done in a timely and professional manner. There was tree painters plus the company owner. All work was done in a neat and smooth operation. The job was estimated at 5 days and completion was done in four. They maintained there schedule each day. The crew maintained a neat environment during the entire process. They cleaned up each evening. The estimate included my request for the most expensive paint due to mildew issues with my siding. The owner offered a lower price if I changed my mind. He agreed this quality paint made the job results excellent. The estimate was certainly what I expected for the man hours and results received. I would recommend this crew to all. There was no surprises, therefore a job well done.

David was spot on time for providing a quote and had an email to me within the period he said. It was so good, decided to have his team also paint the family room. No problems with scheduling and the work was completed within 2 days as promised. His team were very curteous and professional. The work looks great, we are very happy with the results. We plan to have Airless Paint NC back to do the rest of the house when we get to it.

Description of Work: Dave (the owner of the company) came out and saw all of the rooms I wanted to get painted and then I eventually emailed him the colors and the paint I wanted and we set up a date for them to start the job.

Excellent job. Was completed as scheduled and the price was as quoted. They went beyond what they had to do. They painted a couple of small wall & door nicks at no additional cost. They also moved the bookcases to their permanent location along the playroom walls.

In that my house is a larger project for exterior painting beyond the coupon amount, the estimated cost by the service provider is cost prohibitive for me at this point in time and could not be funded by the expiration date. The service provider, Airless Paint NC Inc. was professional and courteous during his estimate process.

Contacting Airless Paint via email. The response was pretty. David was very nice to talk to. We met for a walk-through, so I could get a final estimate on the work that needed to be done, based on size of the house and amount of repairs. David (?) was very clear that if I didn't accept the estimate, that he would refund the amount we had already paid through Angie's list Big Deal. The estimate was good and we agreed to begin work. It took a while to fit us on his schedule, but once the work began it was completed efficiently. The crew that showed up was on time, quiet and cleaned up each night. The painting looked great and fresh, the trim work is wonderful and Airless paint did a great job of making the repairs with no extra cost surprises. I rated the cost as a Good instead of Excellent, because I think it was a little higher than we would have paid without the Angie's list Big Deal. I rated the Responsiveness as Good instead of Excellent because sometimes there was a delay in hearing back from Airless. I would put Very Good if I could, instead of Excellent or Good.

Everything went great! Due to the time of the year, there was a lot of pollen in the air, which in addition to spring rains made it difficult to nail down a specific date for painting. There was no rush and I wanted a professional job that wasn't marred by the weather. When onsite, David and team were professional, courteous and were conscientious to the details of the effort. The work was completed on-time and to my satisfaction - and I can be picky!

Not yet done. Will report when finished.
Description of Work: Because of the heat and humidity, we have mutually agreed to postpone the painting until later (probably September). Because the house is much larger than 1500 square feet, he is pricing the additional amount of painting at the same rate as the Big Deal for the whole house, A fantastic deal.

We are extremely pleased with the paint job performed by David and Airless Paint NC! David was very personable and easy to communicate with. He promptly met me at my home to perform an estimate. His price was very reasonable and we went with him b/c we really liked his demeanor, knowledge, and price. The weather has been very rainy but he was able to paint our home within a couple of weeks. The actual paint job itself only took a couple of days. The color is amazing and the trim and doors now look brand new. We will definitely use David/Airless Paint NC in the future for all our painting needs.
