I think even "1" is too generous here. Photos included below, the worst experience/staining job. Even after "fixing" bare spots once, Clarence said he wanted to "make this right" and still hasn't. Two additional estimates and the deck needs to be stripped, sanded and restrained to fix this work. I would advise anyone to go somewhere else for painting/staining work.
Description of Work: I needed my deck washed and stained. It was the worst quality work, with uneven areas, oversaturated areas that are sticky and sloppy place where the stain was dripped. Parts weren't even stained. Someone came back to "fix" the parts left unstained, but I now have a deck that I have to get completely redone and the owner (Clarence) offered to "make this right" and has since disappeared.

Clarence carefully evaluated the work needed to restore our beautiful 1938 original door, and the work was completed exactly as he outlined to us. Crew leader Brian was very careful, skilled & thorough, going the extra mile to make certain we were satisfied w the results.

Excellent!! I can't say enough good things about this company! The workers were so friendly, the work was professional, communications were great, and we were very happy with the results. Clarence did a fantastic job of managing everything so well. Would hire them again anytime.
Description of Work: New windows in several rooms, basement block windows, new entry doors, and new roof. All this plus worked within the codes for lead paint constraints. Clarence was the general contractor for for this project well beyond just painting. Painting the exterior of the house will be performed this coming spring as the second part of this large project.

Description of Work: Painting, interior and exterior Repair of structural damage caused by water leaks (extensive) Replacement of rotting wood with pvc materials(extensive repairs) These projects were part of a major exterior repair job that became an interior repair/repaint project as we discovered the need. Complete Painting workers were careful, professional, clean, respectful of us and our home. Carpenters explained what they were doing and asked for our input as the job progressed. Clarence C was on site as needed to trouble-shoot and provide supervision.

Their price was reasonable and they put drop cloths down. They were neat and cleaned up after themselves. I was a little worried about the paint color but they sat down and had me look at it before starting so I was happy with the color. I have no complaints about the job.
Description of Work: I used Complete Painting to paint my hallway and a bathroom.

This company did a paint job and installed a shower stall for me (if you can say they did the job, it was horrible). They left me with chopped up walls, crooked wall switch plates, a sloppy paint job and when one of the painters cleaned their rollers downstairs, he put a huge dent in my brand new dryer and didn't say anything about it (I told Clarence, the owner, and he never called me back offering to fix or pay for it). Once, I walked in and the tv was on, there were dirty dishes in my sink (someone had lunch watching my tv using my plates and flatware). The workers were highly unprofessional, talking filthy and making derogatory statements about women, including me the client, swearing, smoking, dropping their used cigarette butts on the floor and they left my downstairs a mess that I had to clean up, not to mention the bathroom. They stood around, were late coming to the job and early to leave. The job took way longer than Clarence had said it would. Beware! Beware! * * * * * * I just stumbled upon Complete Painting's rebuttal to my review. First and foremost, this vendor is a liar. They did 2 painting jobs for me in my ONE HOUSE. I do not have two houses as he states. In conversation, I mentioned that I wanted to put in a new shower unit and he remarks that they can do this...stupid me, I trusted him. Painters are not necessarily contractors. His guys were terrible. Who uses a knife as a screwdriver? What vendor sits in the customer's home, on their couch, watching TV, using their utensils and plates without asking first. They dropped their cigarette butts on the floor like my home was an ashtray INSIDE and OUTSIDE. They used foul language and don't know the difference between hot and cold as they installed my shower facet backward, oh it leaks too. The owner states he will resolve any issue, but when I called him regarding the dent in my dryer resulting from one of the guys shaking out a roller (yes, not outside, but against my wall and floor, hitting my dryer), he never returned my call. The owner, Clarence, showed up for 5 min and just because he didn't see evidence of my claims, doesn't mean it didn't happen. The bottom line is they are unprofessional and incompetent.

Response from COMPLETE PAINTING
The job in question was the third in two seperate homes ,that we had done for Rebecca. We did encounter some minor issues that we did our best to satsfy her complaints. She paid in full and comennted about a piece of flatware that was used that was upsetting. If there were any unresolved issues that I was aware of I certainly would have addressed them as I always have done. We @ Complete Painting pride ourselves with professionalism from the owner to the office personal.I as the owner stop by every job daily at unscheduled times and saw none of the unprofessional behavior described above other than the guys standing around OUTSIDE for a smoke break.

This is the second time we've used this company and highly recommend them. Clarence is the owner, provides free estimates and had a very responsible crew working for him. They are true professionals, always punctual and reliable and do the work right, even if it might take them longer than estimated. Our walls needed much more prep work than anticipated and they do it all very well. They are neat and clean, and if the estimate looks like it will go over, they let you know that as well.
Description of Work: We had a big living room and long hallway painted using bright contrasting colors. Our house was built in 1950 and we have plaster walls so there was a lot of prep work needed.
