I contracted John Graef (Trotwood Painters) to stain the siding above my living room. He sent a part time painter who was ill, and in the hospital, more than on my job. The job looks very amateurish with about every other board stained. I didn't notice this until the stain dried and I had already paid John $2585 when he showed up after the job. I tried calling and texting him but he ignored my attempts to contact him. He doesn't even have a current, legitimate address so don't bother trying to take him to court. John is a first-class con artist.
Description of Work: Was supposed to stain the siding on my house above the living/dining room. But now I still need to hire someone else to do the job.

Terrible! Inferior flat finish primer plus paint used. Only 1 coat applied to surfaces that get constant sun/weather. Paint all over the surrounding brick. Uneven application. ALL THE WINDOWS ARE PAINTED SHUT! Looks like a kid did the work ( it was not a kid ) owner John saw the work when he came to collect his money and clearly didn't care how poorly it was done. Really disappointing that they take no pride in their work. I'm embarrassed for anyone to even see how bad the trim looks and the mess left around it.

This was the first time we used Trotwood Painting. I guess the bottom line is that I we are extremely pleased with how our house looks after it was painted. The two painters, Jimmy and Joe both were great workers and went the extra mile to do a good job. I was impressed with the workmanship and I will hire Trotwood Painting again.

Rude workers complained about us coming in and out of the house. Owner john was looking to collect money but job was not finished. Workers forgot to paint a door. Messy work--- we had to point out drips. I'm still seeing uneven work depending on time of day and lighting. Would NEVER hire again

If you are looking for "good enough" this is the place to use. I wanted to do some touch up roof repairs without having someone try to sell me a new roof. It's very hard to find someone willing to do a small job, and to suggest alternative methods for repairs. The price was very reasonable, and Jim, who did the work, was a very efficient worker. We also had some rotting wood beneath our gutters, and some paint that needed touching up. On their second visit, we had a small leak, and also needed our gutters cleaned. They quickly took care of both.

Description of Work: Painted the trim on my house. Said it was about 5 days of work. They did it in less than three, but didn't reduce the cost. Had to have them come back and redo a number of spots. I asked for a quart of paint for future touch up. Made at least 6 calls. They finally brought me a gallon this morning, 7/20.

Not how I would expect one to work with their customer. In the end, not happy at all with the work, but I would have give the work a Fair mark - maybe a C. But because of the completely unprofessional way he interacted with me, I give him an F.
Description of Work: Going in, there wasn't enough clarity of what and how they were going to do the job. It appeared that all he wanted to do was get in, scrape, paint with the biggest roller that can be found, and get out. And he even got angry as I pointed out issues.

Overall, they were prompt. However, when I spoke with the owner he assured me that it would be clean before it was painted. I noticed that it wasn't and some of my paint is already peeling. Also, there were places that were missed.
Description of Work: I have a brick house so they came out and painted the garage doors and all the trim around the house.

I took the afternoon of 5/18 off of work so I could be there for the inspection / estimate. No one from Trotwood showed up, and I didn't receive a phone call from them either.
Description of Work: I had an appointment for Tues May 18th at 3:30 pm, with Trotwood to have an estimate performed. I needed some flashing on the roof repaired and I wanted the gutters inspected as I noticed they had been pulled away from the house by the ice/snow over the winter.
