They did excellent work. I can’t think more highly of him, they did a really good job from estimation to finish. I have used him before. I have even had them do an estimate for my mother’s house. They are really good people. Over all they were wonderful. Price wise they were exceptional. I would use them again.
Description of Work: I had Freddy’s Painting sometime last fall to paint the bathroom, re-did some sheetrock on our ceiling. It cost $250.

They were able to start the painting two days after an estimate from Silvia. Silvia came out to help with color selection and faux suggestions. The colors she picked were exactly what I wanted and all three rooms that were faux finished are beautiful. Their painters are neat, friendly and very professional. They worked in my home four days and everything went very smoothly. I will use them again in the future.
Description of Work: First floor of our home was repainted, and they faux finished a powder room, a dining room and a home office.

Overall job went well. Estimate by Wayne. Color selection w/ Sylvia. 5 man paint crew for the job. work was done in a manner to be as least disruptive as this type of job could be done. at all times, we had access to a least 1 bathroom & bedroom so we were able to remain in home. the primer did have a strong odor, but we managed to stay. Estimate for the job was 8 days. it was finished on the 9th day.
Description of Work: Entire interior of home painted, approx 3400 sf home. This included priming & painting dark outdated panelling in living & game rms & stair railings, etc. My remaining rms had 3 layers of wallpaper that were removed, walls repaired, then painted. Base boards were painted horribly garish colors by previous owners. Freddys had to do a massive amount of prep work, priming etc. Everything was covered, floors, etc. All walls were painted w/ various color schemes. Freddys operated like pros!!!!!! From the outstanding estimate & detailed explanantion of what they would do to repair & paint, all itemized rm by rm by Wayne. I initially had no idea of what it would cost to fix my house & the dreadful wallcoverings the previous owners had chosen. Wayne was great. Checked on the job thruout the process. All of the painters were great & did a superb job. My home was completed in 9 days. Sylvia, the owner, did a paint color consult w/ me prior to the job. I can not rave about this company & all their workers enough! My home is like a new house, totally transformed!

They were here on September 1st. They were great. We were very impressed. Wayne, the customer service representative, was great. He was very professional and courteous. I had to reschedule and he was very understanding. He was very easy going and worked with us. I would recommend their friendliness, professionalism and quality. The quality of work was excellent.

The job went very well. Slivia was a great help on suggesting colors for the rooms. The colors she suggested were perfect for what I wanted. Her employees were always on time, worked hard and were very professional and friendly. The work was top quality and my house is now what I've always dreamed it could be. The only hiccups were because of decisions I made. I gave wrong instructions on where to put floor outlets and some light fixtures. Once I realized my mistake the workers graciously corrected my mistakes. Silvia is a great in helping select colors for the interior and coming up with ideas to solve problems. I would use this company again and have recommended Freddy's Painted to my friends and neighbors.
Description of Work: Renovation of home. Installed new wood floors, removed carpet on stairway and replaced with wood. Installed new carpet, painted interior, constructed cabinet in closet area. Put new tile in shower, installed new jacuzzi tub, new granite surround and tile on sides and floor.

We chose this company because of their rating on Angie's list and were disappointed. The crown molding and front door looked great. Unfortunately, the painters did not prep the walls before they painted. When the estimate was done by Wayne Hoop, he informed us that the walls would be sanded first. The previous owners of our home did a sloppy job of painting and the walls looked bad. The estimated time that Wayne indicated for the job was 3 days. He said this would allow for the painters to take their time to make sure the walls were in good shape before painting. Wayne called at the end of the first day to say the painters were done with everything (2 coats of paint on walls and ceiling, crown molding installment and the front door). When we arrived home the walls had NOT been prepped, the nails in the walls had been painted over, and there was paint on my dining room table. The workers left all of the garbage from the day in our front yard along with paint chips all over the side walk. When I spoke with Wayne he indicated that he wanted to get the work done in one day so that I could "get my house back.". Wayne was never told that we were in a rush or that we needed our house back. This was a sloppy job and a dishonest estimate. We now have 8 gallons of Benjamin Moore Aura paint ($700). That needs to be sanded off the walls and redone. The morning of the painting, a lead worker was sent who did understand English. When we provided instructions about how to disconnect the house alarm box in order to put up the crown molding he didn't understand. He just cut the wire and we had to pay to have this repaired. Freddy's did not reimburse us for any of this.
Description of Work: Painted living room, dining room, hallway; installed crown molding; refinished front door and replaced hardware.

Placed an initial phone call, answered by receptionist who scheduled an appointment . The representative was on time and professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. He provided a detail bid, no pressure. After discussing with my wife, I called in the evening and said to proceed. His crew showed up on time and completed the project on schedule and within budget. I will use this company again and would recommend them highly.

My wife and I had the entire interior of our home painted by Fredy's painting in June. The house is a two story 2600 square foot home. We wanted to add some color to our home as oppose to your basic contractor white. Silvia came out to give us an estimate and some color options/ideas. She was very prompt and helpful. We did alter her color suggestions a little but we were very happy with the colorful change to our home. Jesus and his crew were very prompt on each of the four days that it took to complete the job. Excellent job in painting and the repair of some stress cracks in the corner of some walls(the house in 18 years old). Just on another note. My wife and I have absolutely no objection to the work crew using our kitchen appliances for their water or lunches, but please, if you put your pepsi's in the freezer to cool them down quicker, please remember to remove them. We had two of them explode in our freezer. It was not pretty. But overall I really don't know how they could have done a better job. Substantially lower price than some of our other estimates, prompt, courteous service and a job well done. I would not hesitate to use them again. They were even able to work around our three inside cats and small Shelty.

Our overall experience with Freddy's Painting was excellent. We signed up for the estimate online and they were very responsive in getting back with us. They called and told us when they would be there and gave us the name of the person coming to give the estimate. The estimate was very competitive with other estimates we received. They were able to start the job 2 days after the estimate. The crew was very polite and professional and completed all of the work in 2 1/2 days. They left cleaned up after themselves and did an excellent job on all aspects of the work.

Description of Work: They painted interior walls in two bedrooms, stairwell, 1.5 baths and the kitchen & dining area. Some of the walls had been painted various colors and were returned to cream. Some repair work was also done.

Wayne came out and gave us an estimate. It was lower than any other contractor we had out. Sylvia then came and helped us choose colors based on the color swatches we'd picked from Home Depot. The painters arrived on time every morning, but were very messy. They did not even try to cover all of our furniture in plastic. Every evening, we had to scrutinize the work done and make a list of things for them to fix. They were very nice about it and addressed almost everything, but never went above and beyond and sometimes had to be reminded several times to fix something. After they finished, we discovered that they didn't remove wallpaper from the upper part of the inside of a window - they didn't even bother painting over it, so it seemed like an intentional miss. We didn't call them about this b/c they had left our house such a mess the first time that we didn't want to end up cleaning up after them again. Our biggest problem was that they didn't cover our belongings to protect them from the pervasive dust. After everything was coated with dust after the first day, there didn't seem to be a point to making a huge fuss and we waited to see what their clean-up would be like. Their "clean-up" was abysmal (the foreman said, "we can only clean so much, you know?") and we ended up cleaning everything ourselves over the course of the next 2 days. The bathroom wasn't included in their painting, but they left the floor of the bathroom so dirty, it had to be mopped twice. They cleaned their paintbrushes in the driveway of the lot next door. Our overall impression of this crew was that they only did the bare minimum to make their work passable. We were very disappointed - based on all these other reviews, we expected higher quality work without our needing to scrutinize everything. Two asides: 1. Wayne and Sylvia both told us they don't paint shutters. That's fine, but what they didn't tell us was that they also don't expect to paint the window frame inside the shutters, even if it it's already painted the color of the room. They gave us a hard time when we requested that it be done - but the alternative was leaving that part of the room a different color than the rest, so they eventually relented. You may need to clarify what "shutters" refers to during the estimate. 2. Wayne and Sylvia also said that they don't tack on extra charges without consulting us first. However, there was some unanticipated sheetrocking that needed to be done and we were not called about extra charges at that time. Wayne tried to bring up extra charges after the work was done. He honored his company's policy and we didn't pay for it, but if we hadn't fussed, we would have.

Freddy's did a 4-step faux paint job in our theater room. They also spent hours stripping and sanding our front door before refinishing it beautifully. My theater room is fit for House Beautiful magazine. I'm not kidding! I showed Silvia a picture from the internet of what I had in mind. This paint job makes that picture look shabby. I am thrilled with the results. Freddy's painting is the only company I'll call from now on. We got MORE than our money's worth and appreciate the friendly, professional service. They showed up when scheduled, protected our furniture, cleaned up ... the whole 9 yards. No complaints, PERIOD.

It was the easiest, postively best contractor job we have ever had done. Sylvia came out & gave us an estimate that was professionally presented & completely on the mark. Everything went exactly as Sylvia said it would. She gave us the estimate, told us how long the job would take & made recommendations for the materials, explaining why she would why she recommended what she did (Sherwin Williams paint, egg shell finish, etc). The painters were absolutely wonderful-very professional, very thorough and really nice guys. They took their time on the detail work & our living room is absolutely gorgeous. Everyone there, from Sylvia to Wayne to the painters, were great to work with. It is so unusual to have someone who exceeds your expectations. We are calling Freddy's this week to set up a time to have them paint the rest of our interior. Thank to Angie's List for helping us find Freddy's & thanks to Freddy's for coming through with flying colors.
Description of Work: We called Freddy's Painting on a Sunday afternoon & left a message. Sylvia responded in less than 24 hours & we set up an appt for an estimate for painting our "great room & entry hall & ceilings within 2 days. We went with Freddy's Painting.

Fantastic job! I could not be happier with the results. Freddy's was professional from start to finish. Sylvia's estimate was detailed, thorough and right on the money. The entire job was finished within three days, including adding an additional hallway to the job. The crew varied between two and six painters and left the house spotless when the job was completed. Special kuddos to Jesus, the crew chief, who did everything we wanted with professionalism and talent. We felt completely comfortable leaving the crew alone in the house while we were at work. Sylvia stopped by to check on the progress durning the job and was insistent that we made sure the job was done to our satisfaction before releasing her crew. I highly recommend Freddy's to anyone looking for top quality painting services at a reasonable price.
Description of Work: They painted six rooms, two hallways and a staircase. The job included painting tone on tone stripes on a wall in the master bedroom and painting the cabinets in the master bathroom.
