My experience went horribly. She never showed up at the scheduled appt time and never called to explain why she wasn't coming or to ask for another appt time. I did, however, call her answering service and left a message detailing my "unhappiness" with her lack of professionalism regarding our scheduled meeting and her not showing up. We have since found another painter whom I'm sure will do a better job than she could have ever tried to do. If someone is wanting to work, and bid on a potential job, this is no way to treat a prospective client.
Description of Work: I contacted Deborah Abraham to come to my house to give me an extimate on some interior painting we were wanting done in 4 different areas of our home. Part of the job would have included removing wallpaper and texturing the walls as well as removing popcorn ceilings and retexturing them. Then all four rooms would need to be painted from top to bottom. We scheduled an appt for April 16. On that date she called and asked if she could change the appt time since she said she couldn't get away from the job she was at. We rescheduled it for the next day, April 17, at 3 pm. However, at the scheduled appt time on Wed., she didn't show up and never called to explain why she wasn't coming. I never heard from her after that. Overall, my experience with her was an F. She Failed on every aspect in my opinion.

Deborah is meticulous and has a great attention to detail. She does the job "right", which does not mean fast - she never sacrifices quality for time and always follows through with her commitments. If errors happen, she spots them and makes sure corrections are done immediately. We have never used another painter since we met Deborah and highly recommend her to Angie's List friends.
Description of Work: This is the 3rd project where we chose to use Deborah in our home. She first worked for us in 2008, painting the interior of our home top to bottom after a major restoration prior to us moving in. Cabinets were either replaced new or were resurfaced; oil and water based painting was involved. Also, bathroom cabinets were stained. All paint and stain were custom colors, which she managed expertly from room to room, based upon the natural and artificial lighting in the rooms. In 2009, she sanded and stained a large, 100% wooden front door to our home. This year, she returned for some specific touch up and painting tasks. We plan to use her in the Fall to paint the house exterior. We have ~3000 sq. foot home, and Deborah has transformed our 1961 look into a refreshed and updated 2011 beauty!
