Hired Walter to paint the main living areas of our house we just brought. He is very detailed and spackled and filled in holes where needed and cleaned up the dings on the stair case. Even cleaned up a wall in our family room that needed additional spackling and sanding due to previous owner removing a fish tank ( you would never know now that there was a tank in the wall). Very please with his work and would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Needless mistakes. The ladder he used made dents and scratches in the hardwood floors. He did not use the proper paint for the bathrooms. As a result, the paint used is peeling in both bathrooms. The wallpaper removal was a disaster. The walls were blemished in many areas. Walt's a nice guy, but not a pro.

Response from Pocono Paint Chip
This project was completed June 4, 2018. All work was done in a professional manner. Care was taken to cover flooring and furniture. Sherwin Williams paint was used throughout the project. Wallpaper was difficult to remove most likely due to lack of priming prior to hanging the paper. Wallpaper had become fused in areas to the top surface of the drywall. All drywall areas damaged during wallpaper removal were primed, spackled and sanded. Than one prime coat and one finish coat were applied to all ceilings and walls.

Walt did an excellent job. He did not miss any days during the two weeks required to finish the job. Walt is a conscientious and friendly guy. He is willing to move furniture around and makes no demands on the homeowner. Best of all, the work is being done by the owner.

I had worked with Walter on previous interior paint jobs, but this was going to be a major project. It involved power washing the entire home and then, after a suitable time for complete drying, two coats of stain. We reached agreement quickly on a price. He showed up on time and worked relentlessly until the job was done. My wife and I were pleased with the result and have received numerous compliments from friends and neighbors. (See before and after photos below.)

From the beginning estimate, Walter was extremely professional. He was the only painter I called who could come in a reasonable amount of time, and his estimates were spot on. We hired him to do only those rooms we couldn't do ourselves (2-story rooms), but after he was done and we saw the meticulous work he did, we promptly hired him to paint our entire downstairs. He worked well with our request for no-VOC paints and special-order paint colors. He's not cheap, but neither was his work. I'd would definitely hire him again.

Clearly a self taught painter. Not near as meticulous as I wanted. Quite a number of paint drips on my newly painted trim, although he did put done drop cloths. Some paint drips on other wood too.

Walter did a fantastic job. This was our vacation home so I had to take a leap of faith and give Walter a key. Well, he was honest, hard working, flexible, and did a great painting job. Once we save up some more money, we plan on having him paint the bedrooms. If you need a painter in the Pocono region, look no further.

Walt did a very good job on a difficult project with a lot of wallpaper removal. The paper came off poorly in many spots which required a lot of prep work before painting. Walt ended up having to put an prime coat and two finish coats on many walls. The house looks great thanks to Walt's willingness and expertise to do the job the right way. He completed the work on time and on budget.

The guy is a true gentleman and takes a lot of pride in his work. It was excellent service. The guy followed through on his home calls and followed through on his estimates on time and executed the job on time. It’s hard to find a painter and a Pocono that completes something on time. The price was excellent.

Water did an amazing job!! Very professional and so pleasant to work with. Walter is old school and will only do the work the right way. I have always maintained my property and what a pleasure to find someone like Walter Steacy. This is the 3rd person I have gotten from Angie's List, a new roof, asphalt driveway, and this paint with unbelievable results. Thank you so much Walt , Otto V Lange

Called Pocono Paint Chip for an estimate for painting part of my home that I was unable due to very high ceilings and walls. Chip arrived as planned to provide a free estimate. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and his price seemed fair for the job to be done--so we hired him. He was always easy to reach on the phone when I had any questions. The job took 3 days to complete (on time) and came out beautiful!! No paint drips anywhere to be found! I would definitely recommend him and I would hire him again when the need arises.

Walter did a fantastic job at painting the interior of our house. The use of quality paint coupled with his skill ensured success. The project included some drywall repair and wall paper removal in two of the bathrooms. Walter was detailed thorough and clean. He took his time and removed all fixtures and did had wonderful attn: to detail around trim, mouldings and other items. I would highly recommend Pocono Paint Chip and hire Walter again. He was timely, finished within agreed upon date and ensured I was highly satisfied with the way the house looked. It made it appear new and fresh. Wish we did it sooner.
Description of Work: I called Walter at Pocono Paint Chip and asked him to quote an interior Paint job. The house needed painting as well as drywall and wallpaper removal in certain sections. He came and explained how he approached painting and what was necessary to make the house look great again. He stated when he could start the job should I hire him. He provided a quote the next day. I liked his professionalism, knowledge and experience. I contracted him immediately. in a timely mannor and quoted the project.

With great attention to detail Walt painted the interior of our lakefront vacation home. Several coats of paint were required to cover the existing colors and accommodate our decor theme. Walt is extraordinarily easy to work with, particularly since our permanent residence is NJ, so paint color selections and detailed instructions were done by email, phone and text. Walt is easy to reach, very accessible, friendly and trustworthy. I would highly recommend Walter Steacy (Pocono Paint Chip) without reservation!

I don't normally write reviews on someone who I did not hire. I felt I had to on this one. If you want to save time, don't call Mr. Steacy for an estimate. First of all he was 3 times higher in price than the rest of my estimates for the same job. When I told him his estimate was too high, he then knocked off about $300.00....The price of this job was also with a 5% Angies discount...LOL...I had 4 other estimates & all were between $1,000.00-$1,200.00...He wanted $2,700.00.... .The other estimates were also from Angies list & they had great reviews & more than just the 2 that Pocono Paint Chip had....He also said the job would take a few days....The other painters were going to be in & out in one day which saved me a few days of having to stay home so that Mr. Steacy could do the job in a few days....He says he works alone which is probably the reason he charges so much more than the others....It takes him days longer to do the job alone so he has to make up for days of pay instead of just one day....I also have 2 dogs & the other painters were much more friendlier with them which is a big plus when workers are friendly to your children....So, I just wanted to give a heads up on this one because it was just a waste of my time to get the estimate.....I was just so surprised that contractors out there charge people so much more than they have to.

My estimate of $2,300 sent to the customer included painting walls and ceiliing in a large open living room/foyer with 18' high ceiling, four skylight areas and two story walls, a stairwell with a vaulted ceiling and over 8' high walls, a hallway with vaulted ceiling and over 8' foot high walls, two bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and walls over 8 foot high. Also included five long ceiling/wall settlement cracks that were to be taped,spackled,sanded and spot primed. One area in bedroom had a water stain and that was to be primed and painted. All paint (sherwin williams superpaint) and materials were included at an estimate cost of $590. Also included was spackling of all minor cracks throughout. Customer choose another contractors bid which did not include painting the two bedrooms. I made an appointment with the costomers within 24 hours of receiving her request for an estimate. I was on time for the appoinment,inspected the property, made suggestions on repairs and paint selection. I sent an email with the paint estimate with 24 hours of inspecting the property. All contact with the customer at the property, by email or on the phone were handled in a friendly and professional manner. Please read other reviews by my customers who actual used my service and were very pleased with the quality of work, professionalism and pricing. Thanks, Walter Steacy

Amazing! Walter is so professional and does a great job! He starts out communicating so well from the proposal and estimates to picking up supplies, arriving on time, returning phone calls, being available to discuss any questions. Everything went so smoothly! He does an excellent job painting. I honestly can say I've never had or seen painting as beautiful as this. He takes his time to get it done right. I haven't seen any paint even a drop out of place! I would definitely suggest Walter as an interior painter and look forward to using his services again!
