It couldn't have gone better. The work is done when it says it will be done; there is no cleanup involved by the homeowner -- and, very important: The quality of the work is top-notch. Rohlfs painting exceeds expectations, are easy to work with and, although NOT cheap, are a very good value. We have used them before, will use them again.

The results were fabulous. This team did an excellent job. Their prep work is comprehensive and so the finished walls, when painted, look perfect. We were in the middle of a remodeling the entire second floor of our home and they were so willing to work with us on scheduling, which can be difficult with so many different crews in the house. I recommend them highly and will always use them for future paint jobs!

Don and his team are EXCEPTIONAL! With Don you receive excellent recommendations, honest estimation of work, and follow through on all commitments. I have used other painters, but my last two homes, both interior and exterior, I only trust to Don! Exterior painting usually includes an exceptional team of 4 to 5 painters with constant oversight by Don and his lead Eric. I could not have asked for more polite, appropriate, precise and excellent skilled painters. They always arrived promptly when promised, never got in the way, protected all furniture and outside landscape, left the worksite in immaculate condition daily, offered additional help when noticed (for example helped with a physically disabled family member to enter the house in a wheelchair - even carried 12 heavy boxes [textbooks] to my basement) and were always gracious and respectful. They never entered the house without asking or getting prior permission. I could leave my house without concerns! He did the interior of my previous home with 2 painters. All fixtures were removed carefully, cleaned if necessary (and I mean my dust ..not anything they did!) replaced and even repaired if they were not perfect in the first place! Really, where can you get that level of service this day in age?!?!!!! As noted in other reviews, Don's estimate may seem a bit higher, but in the long run you save with his knowledge of paint, carpentry, a result with decorative and curb appeal as well as QUALITY OF WORK. In addition, I have sought Don out for help and other household issues and have never been let down by his recommendations or support. Don Rohlf and his wonderful team of painters (Eric, Andrew, Ryan & Mike) deserve the highest accolades! This team is worth waiting for and can be totally trusted!

Don was on-sight at the start of every day and several times during the job to check on his crew's process. His crew was very professional and friendly. Don also made sure we were happy with every aspect of the work before completing the job. His color recommendations were greatly appreciated.

Don and his team are very professional and friendly. The work is top notch. I find Don to be very honest and believe the price he charged was fair. He did come in lowest of three comps for the first job. SInce then, and going forward, I trust Don to do all our painting.

They met and exceeded our expectations. Don, the owner, was involved throughout the process. The total project covered about four and one half days. His two employees showed up each day as promised, worked a full day with no fooling about. They protected the contingent areas, and cleaned up each day prior to leaving and the final close out include complete clean up and removal of any waste, and a complete inspection with Don Rolfes. We couldn't have been happier with the results and can confidently recommend this contractor to anyone.
Description of Work: Hired to paint foyer, entry hall, stairway to second floor and second floor hallway. They removed existing wallpaper; washed all surfaces; repaired cracks, uneven surfaces, etc., including sanding surfaces; and covered the walls with prime coat and two finish coats of premium paint. In addition, they removed an existing chair rail and replaced a portion of the chair rail which we elected to keep.

I have jused Don Rolfs for over 20 years. He is one of the few painters that fully preps the surface so that the paint lasts for years without chipping or cracking. He uses a high grade paint that is easily cleaned. His prices include all materials. His crew arrives promptly, all exposed flooring and furniture is covered, and the job gets finished on time. I highly recommend him and will use him for all my future painting needs.
Description of Work: Painted all interior surfaces of 1st and 2nd floor, except for wood molding and trim, which is a natural stain. Just under 3,000 sq ft of living space.

I wanted to have our exterior shutters painted as a surprise for my husband, who was returning from a long business trip at the end of the week. Believe me, they were bad! Faded, peeling paint -- the house looked terrible. Keep in mind that this was on short notice (I called Don on Monday, my husband was returning Friday), and it was late October, when many painters won't do exteriors. Don actually answers his phone! This was already a good sign. He came out to the house the day I called to assess the situation and give me an estimate. The estimate was reasonable, especially as it included the price of the paint and power-washing, and the work had to be done on short notice with a week of rain ahead of us. I also liked that he has a good sense of colour and design, and an eye for detail. He, his son, and a couple of other painters came whenever the rain stopped, and finished the job by Friday. The shutters look GREAT! The house is no longer the scourge of the neighbourhood! :-) Don and his staff are very professional, friendly, and genuinely good people. They helped me out of a potentially difficult situation, and my husband was so excited to see the great results!
Description of Work: Painted 10 shutters on two-storey house. Included power-wash of front of house, can exterior paint, two coats of paint.

Don does excellent work. He is very meticulous about his work and completes all the extra details that others exclude in their pricing. Since he usually includes the paint in his quote, he seems high but overall value is excellent.

He was real good but expensive. He had done some other work for us previously and he was very good about matching things. He just does incredible matching of paints or paints with another type of fabric that I had trouble matching, so he was just excellent in that. That time it was $1300 plus something. This time he wanted to charge me $1300, I told him that was too much, then he asked me how I would like to spend and I told him, and he took it. He is just very particular with his painting and is a very good painter. The best thing about him is the quality of his work. I would advice others to negotiate with him on the price, once they get the estimate, because if it is too high, he might adjust it.
Description of Work: We used Don Rohlfs Painting for interior painting. He patched the dents and holes in the wall. He did woodwork in a couple of rooms and then he painted the walls twice.

I was familiar with Don Rohlfs Painting after he completed some work for my parents. I had him come over and give me an estimate to paint walls and ceilings in my entry foyer, hallway, living room and dining room. The job was a bit more challenging because I had beams in the ceilings of both my living room and dining room. Don was able to look at the job and give me some great advice on the best way to proceed with the job. My wife and I were also unsure about color, and he was able to give us some excellent advice on the color palette to choose, including painting one wall an accent color. His guys were extremely professional and punctual. They completed all four ares in less than a week, including some extensive caulking around the beams in the ceilings. When he was completed, the colors looked like they had been selected by a designer. My wife and I were extremely happy with the work. We are planning to have him come back and paint other rooms as well.

This painter was working on my neighbor's house and I asked him to come and look at my house. He is definately a pro. He listens, solves problems and then makes other recommendations to improve the appearance of the property. He uses good quality paint too.
Description of Work: Partial House Painted along with the shutters. He had some ideas to improve the curb appeal just by painting it. I really appreciated that and plan to use him again for the whole house.

Don is an artist of his trade and can well advise on color choices. He personally makes sure all color (mixes) are right on. Every detail was well attended to. The work was completed in one week, as he promised. Price ended up as quoted. He is trustworthy, friendly, and considerate. He communicates and shows up on time. As an interior designer, I have worked with quite a few painters, and no one is as neat and professional as Don has been. His price is fair because Don delivers.
Description of Work: We highly recommend Don Rolfs and his crew for inside or outside jobs. He has done both for us: most recently, the inside-- walls, ceilings, and trim in the LR, DR, Hall, and Bath (small "60s ranch house). This inside paint was done in early spring of this year.

I liked them and I would be calling them back again this year. They were reputable. They were a good and solid firm. I found them because my neighbor was using them. I got what I wanted and I got good quality work. I got the price that I almost dealt with worth lately. They were honest. Overall, it went well.

QUALITY job! I've used a number of "painters" over the years for both my commercial needs at our business, as well as our home. Don Rohlfs, apparently, is the first true PROFESSIONAL painter I have used thus far. The other "painters" simply slather on paint with little to no true care about the lasting job they will do. Not Don. He won't do it if it's not right. In fact, Don pointed out a number of very critical repair items we need to accomplish before we could have our house painted properly. Frankly, he looked at the entire exterior condition of the house and was a very helpful consultant. In addition to the quality craftsmanship, Don's crew was very clean cut and displayed his professional character. Don works only one job at a time, and is "on hands". He will work with you on color schemes, paint sample areas before you decide, and will do so quite patiently, I might add. Rohlf's won't be the cheapest quote you receive, but trust me when I tell you that you don't want to skimp on an exterior paint job. It WILL pay off over time. This guy cares, and I can't recommend him highly enough.

His work is excellent. I did not have to get any specialized work done because it was not needed. I had to be present to get it done. He is here when he says he will be here and if for some reason he has to reschedule his work, he is courteous and he will call me. His pricing is slightly higher than others but I am willing to pay that extra amount because he gets the job right the first time. The quality of his work is very high.
