Reilly Painting & Contracting has been serving Cleveland Heights and Northeast Ohio for over 30 years. We began in 1974 as a general painting company and over the subsequent years, we have grown into a full service contracting business. We enjoy a very good reputation in the Cleveland area for our quality work and service.
We offer a full range of services to help prepare or to take of your home. Our service list includes roofs & gutters, plumbing, electric, code violations, ice removal, painting, kitchens, and bathrooms. We are problem solvers who save you time and money. No job is too big or too small.
We aren't just a home repair business. We are also property managers. In the last seven years, we have acquired distressed single-family homes and restored them into beautiful and comfortable houses. Most of the houses are located close to University Circle, Case Western Reserve, UH, and the Cleveland Clinic. And if you've got a house that needs sold or rented but needs some work we can do that too.
They wanted to come out after all the leaves fell off from the trees. They were very professional. I liked them because they also went and cleaned out the gutter on the garage and blew off all the leaves on the garage. I didn?t expect them to do that. So I did appreciate that quite a bit. They told me that my gutters were fine and so they didn?t try to sell me new gutters. They did try to get me touch up some trim, which they had done two years earlier, but I told them that I would wait till spring since it?s too cold now. They were very professional and did their business. They do a thorough job. They did more than what I expected. The big thing for me is that they waited until the leaves were down. I would surely use them again for gutter cleaning.
Description of Work: Reilly Painting & Contracting Inc did gutter cleaning for me in November.

They will let you pay your bill overtime. They are extremely high priced.
Description of Work: They tuck pointed the porch and the estimate was around $500 and they sent out someone and it took her less than an hour to complete the project and when I called to complain that the price was not appropriate they said that was the estimate and they were sticking to it. I am not sure the people that do the electrical work are licensed electricians. I have had them out 2 times and each time was for several thousand dollars of work done.

The project started about 2 weeks after their indicated start date and took about 5 weeks of partial days instead of the estimated three weeks. Close attention was needed to verify that the work was done (e.g. had to remind the foreman of the insulation they were to add), quality (e.g. tile floor in shower had to be redone) and charges (a couple of instances of added or over charges from the estimate).
Description of Work: Reilly Painting and Contracting renovated a 10' x 7' bathroom which involved removing the old bathroom interior down to the floor and plaster walls and renovating it with new flooring (tile), shower stall, vanity, heater, lights and refinished walls.

They were nice guys and cleaned up after themselves. They were informative and seemed to know what they were doing. The job didn't succeed in the end. We still have a problem that didn't get solved.
Description of Work: We paid them a lot of money to work on a porch. We were very dissatisfied with the work. They repaired the roof and gutters on the front porch. They came back a second time and we still have a problem

Met with Mike Reilly in late '07 to ask for quote to paint kitchen cupboards and front entry door, to prepare house for sale. He recommended we take different approach as described above. He stated his work would be done before Christmas, taking about one week. We agreed and he started. Front door paint job was excellent as was the bedroom ceiling paint job. They damaged the window sill above the sink removing the old counter, damaged range hood removing old counter, created excessive dust cutting cement board inside house and garage, paint on ceiling light fixture trim, created NEC code violation when installing tile over existing switch/outlet, did not re-install outlet covers, used slate sealer on granite, sealed dirt under sealer, painted flush light fixture trims to ceiling, messy paint between wall, ceiling & cupboards, failed to remove screws protruding through underside of counter top, did not finish painting front hall, reinstalled kitchen sink 1/4" out of square.
Description of Work: Paint Front Entry Door / Paint Front Hall / Paint Kitchen (walls and ceiling) / Touch up existing kitchen cupboards / New kitchen counter top with granite tiles.

Response from Reilly Painting and Reilly Properties
I met with the member and his wife to review the job prior to the final touchups. Most of the items remaining both they and the foreman Tom were aware of...very simple issues that are standard in this kind of work...touch up the ceiling lines to the wall, 2nd coat of faux finish, etc. A number of issues the member raised were beyond the scope of the job. For example, he raised the point that the finish screws for the granite top were not sanded down on the underside of the counter, an area that in my 30 plus years, nobody has remarked on. Also the sink edge was slightly roughed up when it was re-installed after the new counter was laid. As I explained to both the member and his wife, "you are getting ready to sell the house, the scope of my estimate was simply to 'spruce' up the kitchen, and not to do a total remodel job which instead of costing $3500 would be easily $15,000." These issues raised are not valid. I had assumed that this had resolved the matter. My foreman came in and took care of the paint touch ups, and we sent them the final bill. Three weeks elapsed. No word, no call, no check. Finally, our controller called, and the member told her a letter was forthcoming outlining his complaints. My controller responded that the time for a letter had passed. You should have picked up the phone and called if there was a problem. The member told us that there was too much left to repair, and that he was not going to pay us, but simply get someone else to do the job. Given that attitude, my controller informed him that we were placing a lien on the property, and he can pay us when the house sells plus interest. I have been in business for over 30 years. I know when a job is done right and when we have failed. I also know when a customer is being unreasonable. Usually the first sign is when we have to call them to get paid, rather than they call us. When that happens, I am in no mood to 'negotiate'.
Once hired, they got right to work and arrived on time each day. Each worker was pleasant and communicated openly about any issues as the job progressed. We also kept in touch by e-mail. They were very clean and moved supplies to the job site with no complications. From start to finish, I could not have had a better experience with a home remodeling company.
Description of Work: Two bathrooms remodeled: built tub walls, replaced ceiling, installed tub surrounds, prep, painted, installed toilets, sink vanities, marble tops, all faucets & shower heads. Applied decorative texture wall finish to living room, dining room, bedroom then prep, painted & finished all rooms and built-in window seats with cabinets. Prepped, stained, poly coated six rooms of hardwood flooring. The finished rooms are absolutely beautiful! These guys were courteous, diligent, prompt, and detail oriented. We are very, very happy with the final result.

The call to Reilly was odd, they asked if I was sure I wanted them to come out for an estimate (why else would I be calling for an estimate). Bob was nice when he came over and suggested that most of the house was in good shape and that if we painted the garage (which was really in need) and the front of the house and just did peeling spots on sides and back that it would be good enough for us to put the house on the market. No other company suggested this and it made so much sense because we are selling the house. Eric and his crew were friendly and professional and they did a great job on the front of the house, garage and one of the sides. They came back to fix a couple of spots on the side entry side (which I wish they had done as well as the other side that nobody sees). And I am not sure they did much other than the spot that I pointed out in the back. Overall, they did a decent job, but I'd have paid a little more attention to where they were concentrating their efforts.
Description of Work: Prepped and painted entire front and one car wood sided garage. Prepped and painted peeling spots on other three sides of previously painted aluminum sided house. Powerwashed entire house. Tuck pointed cement on front steps.

They were very business like and professional. They matched the paint perfectly that was there before. One of the awnings was damaged and they switched it out with one that wasn't facing the street. Bill kept me up to date with everything.
Description of Work: I had a lot of ice damage on my gutter on the outside of my house. The whole 40 foot gutter fell down. They fixed the gutter and put the soffit back up and repaired the fascia board.

They said they would just wallpaper without re-plastering. I said it was unsatisfactory, and the did plaster again however they installed the wallpaper when the plaster was still wet. On our basement stairs there was a portion that was left unpainted. On our upstairs stairs they didn't caulk and didn't paint a portion there also. I had to call them back to have it done. A latch needed to be put on a dining room cabinet that was not done. Sean Reilly is not professional in the way he treated me, his customer, and this company did not do a satisfactory job. I contracted them also to do exterior painting in the spring. Sean gave us a verbal agreement that we would be first in line to have the exterior painting done in the spring and when I touched base with him he stated that we were not first in line. However, Sean required the money up front as a deposit. We do not want them in our house again for this additional work and will be requesting a refund.
Description of Work: They did plastering and painting. They didn't bring any drop cloths, so I had to buy them at my expense and lay them around the house. We had a half bath that they plastered and put up wallpaper. When he installed the new wallpaper it was wrong and when he tore the wallpaper down he pulled off the new plastering.

They painted the ceilings the same colors as the walls. We assumed that the ceiling would be white - anybody would. They added an extra coat on the walls, but refuse to repaint the ceiling white without an additional charge.
Description of Work: They came and gave an estimate which was agreed to, the color was picked. We requested two coats, and we were unhappy with the finished product and they came back after we requested and did an additional coat.

Their were excellent. They called each day to let us know when they would be arriving. They cleaned up after each day and left their equipment out of our way. The quality of the work is outstanding. In addition the workers were polite, easy to ask questions, and were respective of our presence in the house.
Description of Work: They refinished the island in the kitchen and refinished the tops of two book cases in the living room. They also removed a Jen-Air cook top and replaced it with their own built carving block.

ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES I HAVE HAD WITH GETTING REPAIRS DONE AND PROBABLY THE BEST WITH REILLY PAINTING AND CONTRACTING, INC. FROM THE INITIAL CONTACT(ACTUAL CONTACT WITH SOMEONE)WITH THE OFFICE ON THE PHONE, THE ESTIMATE, AND THE CARRYING OUT OF THE WORK EVERYTHING WAS POSITIVE. THE CREW WAS PUNCTUAL, PLEASANT, PROFESSIONAL, AND CONSIDERATE. THE WORK WAS DONE AS DESIRED AND EVERYTHING WAS LEFT AS NEAT AS POSSIBLE.

NEVER, AND I MEAN NEVER USE THESE PEOPLE INSIDE OF YOUR HOME. THE OWNER GAVE US THE ESTIMATE, BUT WE KEPT GETTING EXTRA BILLS TO TAKE CARE OF PLUMBING ISSUES, ETC. THEY NEVER DID COMPLETE THE JOB. WE WANTED A SLIDING GLASS DOOR INSTALLED FOR THE SHOWER, NEVER DONE. PLUS THEY USED A TILE CUTTER IN OUR ONE BEDROOM AND THE WATER LEAKED TO THE LIVING ROOM AND STAINED OUR NEWLY PAINTED CEILING. SO ANGRY WE WOULD NOT HAVE THEM BACK INTO OUR HOUSE EVER AGAIN! THEY DO NOT FINISH WORK THEY BEGIN. THEY NEVER INSTALLED TOWEL BARS OR A TOILET PAPER HOLDER AND THE PAINT JOB WAS HORRENDOUS. PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. BY THE WAY THE COST DID NOT INCLUDE ANY OF THE MATERIALS (TUB, SINK AND TOILET). THE CABINET WE PICKED, THE WORKER PUT TOGETHER WRONG AND MY HUSBAND STAYED UP LATE ONE NIGHT TO FIX IT SO IT COULD BE INSTALLED THE NEXT DAY! IT WAS AN UNBELIEVABLE NIGHTMARE, WILL HAVE TO HAVE SOMEONE COME IN AND FIX AND REPAINT THE BATHROOM! I REPEAT AGAIN DO NOT USE!

FIRST WORKER HAD NO EXPERIENCE IN INSTALLING A STALL SHOWER. SHOWER FLOOR WAS NOT LEVEL AND DIDN'T DRAIN. HE REDID THE FLOOR, BUT SHOWER LEAKED BECAUSE THE PAN WAS NOT INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS. A SECOND WORKER CAME WITH THE SALESMAN AND HE REDID THE SHOWER PAN AND FLOOR, IT STILL LEAKED. HE REDID SOME OF THE GROUT AND CAULKING, AND IT NO LONGER LEAKED. THE SHOWER IS STILL NOT DRAINING FULLY, SMALL AREA HOLDS WATER LEAVING SOAP BUILD UP AND HARD WATER RESIDUE. ORIGINAL WORKER DID OK JOB ON TILING THE FLOOR, BUT CAUSED MINOR DAMAGE ON DOORS WHILE TRIMMING THEM FOR NEW FLOOR HEIGHT. REPAIRS TO CEILING WERE POOR QUALITY IN THAT THE SURFACE WAS NOT SMOOTH AND AREA REPAIRED WAS VISIBLE. THIS WAS CORRECTED BY THE SALESMAN ALTHOUGH IT TOOK 2 TRIES. OVERALL JOB TOOK ALMOST 5 MONTHS FOR WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A 2-3 WEEK PROCESS. THEY DID ADJUST PRICE IN LIEU OF REDOING SHOWER FLOOR.
Description of Work: RECONSTRUCTED STALL SHOWER WHICH WAS LEAKING, REPLACED ROTTED FLOOR, INSTALLED NEW TILE FLOOR, AND REPAIRED CEILING BELOW.
