Whelehan Painting

Interior Painting, Exterior Painting, Pressure Washing,

About us

Whelehan painting was started in 1977 by my father Chuck Whelehan. I began working with him straight out of high school in 1997. I worked for him, we were partners, he worked for me and then he retired. Since I have grown the business to 16 experienced well mannered employees. We all take pride in our work and always use the best materials for the job. With having such a large experienced crew we are able to tackle the biggest of jobs and be in and out in a day or two. Many customers are amazed by how fast we get their job done and how beautiful it looks when we finish (Check the reviews) .Would you rather have a contractor in or outside your house for a day or two, or a week or two or more? We also do not take deposits so you are comfortable with hiring us, you don't pay until you are happy with the job. My prices are also right in line with other contractors, just because we have a large crew I do not charge more, I would say I could give a better price than guys with a small crew. Super Service Award Winner 2014, 2015 and 2016! West side call Patrick at 317-6654. Thank you.

Whelehan did a fabulous job. Pat and his crew were friendly, efficient and did a great job painting our house. They were able to finish the job in just two days and cleaned up beautifully after each day. They were very responsive and communications were perfect. Thanks Pat and crew!!

Great, on time, professional, did a beautiful job. Have an older house and it needed a lot of prepping, paint scrapping, sanding etc prior to applying paint. Wow, is all I can say, 6 plus painters that worked together like a well oiled machine. Have received so many complements on house and have referred whelehan painting to several of my neighbors.

Pat came over the same day I called him to give us an estimate. He and his crew did the work the same week, all in one day. They put on two coats of paint on the walls, an accent wall and a different color for the trim. The crew was efficient and did a great job.

Beautiful job done by Pat's crew on my three bedrooms. They painted three rooms, ceiling & trim work in one day. Crew was courteous, arrived on time and cleaned up. Extremely reasonably priced. I'll be using Whelehan Painting for my next project.

Wow! These guys are amazing! Went just like they said. Came in with a crew of 15+, they scrapped as needed, removed all storms, painted all windows and complete exterior, replaced all storms. All in 1 day! Everyone of them is a professional and the whole crew works very hard, even the owner is painting! They wouldn't even accept a penny until I was 100% satisfied, real classy operation start to finish...

Very well. Pat provided an estimate using pictures of the house from the MLS site before we closed. Once we closed Pat visited the house to get a better idea of what needed to be done and his estimate did not go up. Pat was able/willing to adjust his schedule to meet our schedule. He had about 12 painters working the first day to get a good jump on the project. After the first day he sent about 6 each day, all day. Pat and the team were flexible and willingly took on additional requests for minimal extra costs. Overall the job was very good, a few missed spots, paint spots on the floors and a few other residual effects of painting. We also needed a touch up to some of our walls after the movers did some minor damaged. Pat sent one painter to do the needed work and he did an excellent job. Overall we are satisfied with Whelehan Painting and would hire and recommend the company.

Work done was very good. My problem was that they estimated the job as two men for two days at a cost of $783. The work was completed by the two men in SIX HOURS. They did NOT offer a price adjustment.

Response from Whelehan Painting
sorry you thought that way [Member Name Removed] but that's not even possible. we charge $300 A man day and add paint and tax with 2 guys for the day that's right in line with our cost. you must have misunderstood the labor cause 2 guys for 2 days would be $1200 plus material. I'm glad you like the job but to give me a poor review on a fair priced job is unfair.

It looks great. The team did an excellent job. We were going to stick with one coat on the trim but after seeing it in the different light I wanted a second coat. Pat had a painter out the following morning to put on another coat. Excellent service!

I called Whelehan Painting on Monday and left a message. The next morning he called and set up an appointment to come to my home to give an estimate. It was scheduled for that Thursday between 4 and 5 pm. He did not show up or call to offer a reason why. I have still not heard from him, nor do I expect to.

I'm sorry [Member Name Removed], if you understood how busy and the amount of calls I get in a day you would get that every once in a while I miss something. I really try and I'm sorry again. I would never intentionally not show up to a scheduled estimate, I must have misplaced your information . If you would have called I would have set up a new time as soon as I could.

They said that they will warranty any work they do, but they do not. I called him about the warranty, and he argued that since they used paint that I purchased, they won't warranty the work.I paid $900 for a job that is absolutely terrible. Part of the paint has chipped off and turned yellow. I have tried contacting him several times, and he has blocked my number. He said he would mail me a receipt, and never did. He never told me up front that he wouldn't warranty the work if he used my paint. They are a scam and they tell you that if you pay cash, you don't have to pay an addition $80 or so in taxes, which voided the warrant. Anyone who is looking at this company, do not use them unless you want to be taken advantage of.

[Member Name Removed], we both know you purchased your own paint that you insisted on using to cut cost. After asking me if I could do your job for free because you were sick a while back and I told you I couldn't but could give you a discount you agreed and said you had paint so I left it at that. I power washed the fence and painted it no different than I would any other job . You call me yelling and accusing me of not telling you the paint you bought would fail. First, you were not in position to pay extra for the paint I would have used and second, I never used the paint you ordered from God knows where so I have no opinion on the product. The paint yellowed and chipped a couple months later, maybe a Google search on the product might have helped before you bought it? It's true you can't please everyone I guess and I'm sorry you are not happy with us but I'm not coming back to fix this for free and no , I don't warranty a product I've never used before. Please stop the threatening calls to, they're very strange lol. Everything about working for this customer was strange from the beginning, even the guys I had do the job said she was standing in the door watching them from start to finish, 7 hours of standing there, and when they looked that way she ducked away like she wasn't there. I don't like to call customers out but I get reviewed all the time on my performance (and as you can see theyre 99%positive) so i figured I'd put it out there so other customers who read this would understand this person is "different " to say the least.

These guys are great, we are very pleased. Weather was not helping us out but we eventually got the job done and they were very fast. We have an old victorian house that is in fairly good condition, lots of colors and details. Not an easy house to paint but they did a very nice job.

Thanks [Member Name Removed], I appreciate the business and review but I'm confused by the low punctuality score. We were there when we arranged the estimate, there the date we set and it only took us 2 days to paint your large house? Either way thank you guys.

Pat and Mike from Whelehan Painting were professional and extremely helpful from start to finish. The quality of the work is impeccable and they took the time to explain not only what they were doing, but why it was the right choice for our aging home. They also talked us through aftercare and how to maintain the paint. The work was beautiful and done in a single day for a 2000 sq ft, two story home. I would hire Whelehan Painting again without a second thought and highly recommend their work!

Pat came out to take a look at the scope of work as scheduled. This was in November just before the winter. The house was in need for a fresh coat of paint to protect it from the weather elements. Pat took at the house and provided a quote right away for painting the entire house. There was one particular section of the house that had some paint peeling away and I was prompted to ask him if he could touch it up for the winter so that there woudlnt be any moisture damage to the interior. He looked at the path and recommended waiting for the spring/summer. He was fair and honest and I look forward to hiring his firm for the job in the summer.
