Franchise business. Each office is independent. We contacted the two Franchises for Houston Texas. We choose to not have them bid the job because they did not carry Workman's Comp and Liability Insurance. Having insurance is critical before you allow someone to work on your house. Both Franchises told me MY homeowners insurance would cover them if they got hurt (Workman's Comp). Liability Insurance covers for any damages the company may cause to your home. Ask all companies to show proof of insurance and to list the homeowner as additional insured on their insurance.

Ron Forest came out and did a really good job of estimating. He was on time for our appointment, professional and really listened to what I was asking. On the day he said they would start his crew arrived on time. I had a brief discussion with the job foreman and then they got started. They were efficient and nice. They stayed until right after 6 pm. They came the next day and finished outside and started with the interior. All work was done very well and I am pleased with the painting and of all the drywall repairs they did. Ron had said it would take approximately 4 days. They were finished in 2 and 3/4 days.. Very Nice !

Carnival quote was less than the two others I received and half the price quote from Lopez. The job was expected to take 2-3 days it took 4 full days, house has a lot of trim, 2 story house and garage, some of it rotten which was all replaced. All exterior surfaces were done including house, garage, patio, balcony, deck, railing etc. Also repaired dining room ceiling hole/damage. Price was within quote, guys were quiet, hard working, profesional. A great job, I highly recomend them.

We purchased a home and needed to change many rooms of interior colors and entire ceiling. From start to finish they did what they promised to do. Estimate was fast and accurate. The crew was amazing and took great care to cover flooring (our house was empty). They had to do some drywall patching and it turned out flawless. We are already using them again to touch up our house we are putting on the market....stay tuned.....

We just moved into a new home and contacted 3 painters for bids with the stipulation that the painting be done in a week. Carnival was the cheapest, the only one that would do faux, and also agreed to get it done in our time frame. Awesome job by the guys. HIGHLY recommend him.

Ron was punctual on the estimate, provided the quote immediately, and his crew was on time for both starting and finishing the job. There was a snag from our end in that the house didn't have electricity and the paint wasn't drying quickly enough. The crew went home and brought heaters and extension cords to speed the drying process and still finish on time. All of the people I interacted with were gracious and professional. The prices, while not cheap, were definitely fair and significantly lower than the other quote I received. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Ron's team painted the interior of our rental house - all rooms, some ceiling/ trim/ doors.

He guaranteed I would have the work done before Christmas. They got it done the Sunday before, so I was happy about that. There were some towel racks that I asked them if I should remove before they started and they said they would do that themselves. It looks like they painted around them and didn’t remove and of them. There are also some paint splatters on my window. However, they did a really good job considering the time frame I gave them. They were always here on time and stayed well into the evening.
Description of Work: I had the entire house painted. They painted ceilings, walls, and trim. They even repaired some baseboards.

So-so. Supervision was intermittent. Attention to detail was spotty (one ceiling that was not to be painted was and one that was supposed to be painted was missed until I pointed it out. When this last ceiling was painted, furnishings were not completely covered, and an original oil painting may have had some pints droplets spattered on it. When I brought this to the attention of the owner and the project supervisor (neither of whom was present at the time of this bit of work) they claimed it was part of the painting and wanted to check it out by scraping the painting with a pocketknife!!! Several Hunter-Douglas window shades had brown paint brush marks (one about 1 in by 12 in). They tried to clean the paint and managed to further damage the blind material. An area about 8" square around a ceiling fan was overlooked and not found for some time (I easily finished it). Various spots of paint wound up on marble floor (difficult to notice given paint color and variegated nature of marble), on countertops and mirrors. We agreed to a $500 price reduction owing to the damaged blinds and the possibility of paint on art work. The large majority of work was well and quickly done. Price was very reasonable. The several problems could (should) have been avoided by better instructions and guidance to the project supervisor and painters by the owner. Owner was there only at outset and completion. Project supervisor was absent now and then. I could be everywhere at once and monitor the activity of 3 - 4 painters in different rooms. I would consider using again, but only with insistence on fewer painters with proven experience, my direct participation in instructions to project supervisor and all workers, daily inspection and guidance by owner, constant presence of project supervisor, and smaller work crew, so individual activity could be better monitored and guided.
Description of Work: Interior painting of most of house and garage apt, including some kitchen cabinets, but not all ceilings.

All work was performed as instructed, and at the agreed upon time. I would say it is the best painting I have had done so far in this 50 year old house I am remodeling. Since there were add-on costs to the "special," it would have been a good idea to have gotten the final estimate in writing, which I did not do. Would recommend this company.
Description of Work: I hired this company based on a one room special they had through Angie's List. Because I wanted more than one color paint, and some special trim work, there were add-on costs. One bedroom was painted, with a different color for the ceiling and trim. The window ledge was yet another color

It was done a little too quickly as a couple of spots seemed thin after drying. That is the only reason I didn't give all As in the review. I would easily hire this company any time I wanted more painting done (especially after using some others!). But there was no spatter or paint on our white trim (walls painted light blue).
Description of Work: It was a deal for one interior room for 129. A supervisor came out an viewed what we wanted done. A worker showed up at the time scheduled and completed the job very professionally and quickly.

I requested a quote for work to be done, not just in the laundry room, but in other areas of the house too. For reasons not having to do with the company, I decided to get the laundry room repaired first. To say this is a laundry "room" is stretching it; it's more like a closet. But I was never given the impression that a job is too small. Jose arrived on time and was professional. I did call to have Jose come back for minor paint touch-ups. But overall I am extremely pleased and am thankful to have a pretty room with no holes in the wall. I will call this company again when it is time to get the other areas of my home repaired.
Description of Work: Replaced sheet rock and baseboard in the laundry room that had been damaged as a result of a plumbing leak. Painted the walls, door trim, and baseboards.

Overall, Carnival custom painting was professional and honest. Their proces run average to high.
Description of Work: Carnival custom painting came into our home and provided us with an estimate for interior painting for the living room which has high ceilings and a multi-storey entry. The company's representative was honest and up-front about the cost which was refreshing. However, the amount quoted was above our budget for how much we wanted to spend.

They did a very professional job and I am enjoying the results. I requested at the last minute to change out the door molding and it was done for an extra $10 / door. The total job was a little high but as stated, they did a professional job that will last years. The only issue was not painting both sides of the doors or door jams. I wish I knew it would not be done. When opening the coat closet the inside door is yellowed as well as part of the door jam. Looks odd. I can see if it was a bedroom door with other doors inside the room but not a coat closet. I painted it the best I could. They are pricey but as stated, they did a good job.
Description of Work: They came out and gave me an estimate on painting the entire living room and entry including three doors and trim. They built a mantel above the fireplace, fixed a wall and part of a ceiling. I had to wait three weeks from the time of the estimate. It was conveyed it would take two days; however, it extended to three.
