Solution was very responsive to our initial call for an estimate, and when we were ready to start work was able to fit us in within a week. We asked for 2 estimates- one just for the ceilings and one that included painting the hallway and a significant amount of trimwork. The hall and trim work alone was $1700, so we decided to only have the ceilings done since there were several holes from old light fixtures and where we recently had electricians install recessed lights. Two other estimates for the same work (ceilings only) came in at $700 and $1700, so this was the middle estimate. The 4-man crew arrived on time and were done with all 3 rooms in 8 hours. One room was drywall, and the other 2 were plaster. The crew sanded and evened out the ceilings, patched the holes and applied 2 coats of paint. There were also 2 holes in the walls that were patched and painted (with our own paint) where electricians had to cut to snake wiring. The ceilings and walls where the work was completed look great! However, the prep and cleanup were not sufficient. There was a thick layer of dust all over the house from all of the sanding. The crews hung plastic sheeting between rooms to minimize the dust, but did not cover furniture in the adjacent areas. Since they used fans in between coats, clearly the plastic sheeting could not contain the dust. I was more concerned with the quality of the paint jobs, so didn't notice how bad the dust settled until they left. As they were leaving, I pointed out a layer of paint/dust on the hallway railings which they briefly wiped off, but after they left i ended up having to clean the entire house, including the rooms where they worked.
Description of Work: Patching several holes and painting ceilings in three rooms.

It went very well. They were responsive with getting a quote and in providing the service--we had a tenant in the property and they were great at working with me and with the tenant. Rosy, in the office, was particularly great--in coordinating all the specifics. I would recommend them again.
Description of Work: They helped refurbish an area that had water damage, did drywall replacement and painting.

While doing some work in my attic crawl space, my foot slipped off one of the rafter and just slightly pushed against the drywall. This caused a huge crack that I attempted to fix however I was unsuccessful. The owner came out on a Friday and the men were able to fix it on Sat. They fixed it wonderfully. I can't see anything and they painted the ceiling as well (per my request I supplied the paint). I don't know if they used a new drywall sheet or not but the end result is beautiful.
Description of Work: There was a huge crack in our hallway ceiling. The crack was large and off-center and was near some joints.

On the basis of positive comments posted on Angies List I contracted Solution Painting Inc. to paint my finished basement and the cabinets in my ground floor kitchen. When Mario Vega (Owner) came to appraise the job I was very impressed with his professionalism and his stated dedication to quality/customer service. There were several communication problems during the job between me and his crew (I do not speak Spanish), after leaving messages with his receptionists to pass on to him, and leaving messages on his voicemail. There were also major quality control problems. One portion of the job, the basement was done quite well. The other portion, kitchen cabinets was seriously deficient. The crew painted the cabinets and most of the cabinet doors, but did not paint the tops or bottoms of the doors. This may have been because they were waiting for the first coats on the sides of the doors to dry, and could then rest the doors on their sides in order to paint the tops and bottoms. Attempts to contact Mr. Vega or his office to fix the deficiency met with very limited results. I talked to Mario and his receptionist several times, left several messages, and multiple emails, and was still ignored. Finally, the only thing that got their attention was when I told them I was tired of trying to force them to do the work they had been paid for, and their lack of professionalism would be reflected in my online review. I then finished the job myself. Notes to Mr. Vega: 1. Don't make promises you don't intend to honor. You stood with me in my basement on a Saturday afternoon, with your paint crew working all around us, and you assured me that the job would be done by 8 PM that night. The job did not get finished by then. Because only three painters were on the job site, I was told that they would have to return and finish on Sunday. On Sunday, only one painter showed up. One painter wasn't enough to finish the job, but when I called you to ask you to send more men, you said that you had no control over your own workforce and couldn't get more painters to the site. The job was not completed until late Monday, and even then, it wasn't properly done. 2. Follow up on your commitments. The reason I chose you for this job was your reputation and your assurance of quality when I met you. Your reputation did not mention that if there were any problems, I would have to deal with them on my own. I am repainting my cabinet doors and touching up several other problem spots that I've found, and I'm doing it myself, because it's not worth my time to continue to track you down and try to force you to do it.

From the first phone call and in-home estimate to the prompt scheduling and completion of the job, everything went without a glitch. I have already scheduled exterior paint work with Solution Painting for the spring.
Description of Work: Repaired water-damaged drywall and repainted walls and ceiling; plugged hidden exterior gap in window frame through which water leaked inside the house during the last big storm and installed missing flashing (this gap, behind a gutter, was left by the contractor who installed the new windows less than a year ago).

The painters arrived on time with a large crew and immediately got to work. They did their best to minimize the noise and dust (we were continuing to work in the rear of the building while the front was being painted.) They worked amazingly quickly, and were immediately responsive when I asked them to sand certain areas where the old paint had built up. They explained the problems involved in getting a good result, and then proceeded to solve the problems. The finished job looks wonderful.
Description of Work: Solution painted the gallery and conference room at my office, The Jerusalem Fund in DC. They were outstanding professionals and did a great job on our walls, which required a great deal of work, as they had to strip away old wallpaper and skim coat and sand over many layers of old paint. They were also very responsive when I pointed out certain areas that I felt hadn't been addressed and completed the work perfectly and with great speed. We would certainly hire them again when we have another job.

This is the second time I used Solutions painting and both times the work was done in a professional and timely manner. The crew showed a great deal of detail in prep work and providing a proper painting surface. Both my wife and I are very pleased with their service and will use them again if additional interior painting is needed. After having poor experiences with previous painters i want to credit Angie's list and the other reviewers to putting me in touch with this vendor. Thank you!!

Solution Painting did an outstanding job in every respect. They were courteous, professional, and detail-oriented. Their bid was significantly lower than several others received from equally reputable companies, and they offered to power-wash our extensive brick walkways at no additional charge. They started the job exactly when they said they would, and called on the one day they had to arrive late. At times there were as many as nine painters working on the house at once, and the project was finished when promised. The carpentry work they did was excellent as well. I had to call them back for one very minor problem a few weeks later, and they were very cheerful about returning right away to correct it. Overall, a great experience, and I highly recommend the company.
Description of Work: Painted entire exterior of house and garage, power-washed brick walkways, repaired wood steps and screens, installed handrail.

The crew was wonderful. All the work was done in one day. They were very careful to keep everything clean and covered during the process. It was an excellent job and we intend to use them again in the future. Couldn't have been a better experience right from the start when Mario gave us the estimate and madfe great suggestions. I'd recommend this firm to anyone needing a paint job. Excellent job/experience all around.

About a year after getting the estimate, I finally pulled the trigger to get the work done. Solution Painting honored the estimate and scheduled the start date to be about 2 weeks after I called them. The crew showed up exactly when they said they would the first day, and did as much as they could until rain began later that morning. They were back the next day and completed the work over the next three days (thankfully without rain interference). They said the paint store couldn't color-match my previous deck stain, but the crew asked for my approval on the slightly different stain by doing a section of my deck before proceeding further. The results look great, and the crew was great about cleanup every day and at the completion of the job.
Description of Work: Solution Painting painted my exterior wood trim, repaired wood rot around windows and trim (replacing with synthetic where necessary), pressure washed my deck and stained it, pressure washed my siding, stained/painted my shed, stained a gate, and repaired wood trim around the shed.

From the 2nd day, everyone was prompt, industrious, courteous, & did a darn fine job paining. They (3-4 guys) moved a lot of furniture & helped the whole process go quickly & smoothly. Great daily clean up too.
Description of Work: Remove lots of wall paper & paint 2-story interior walls, ceiling, & trim.
To say the least, when ever we need painting and handyman work done on our home, Mario and his crew will be called again. We did not have any problems, and would highly recomment his services.
Description of Work: We have used Solution Painting twice on our house. The first time they painted the whole interior of the house, power washed the outside, painted the trim, deck and stairs. Mario came over when he said he would be there, estimated the cost and gave us a very good rate. His crew was professional, careful and attentive to our requests. We were very impressed with the quality of the work done on the house. We then hired him to paint our mother's home. His cost were lower to paint her 200 years old home and several outbuildings than it was ten years prior. She was very pleased. Last Dec. Mario came back to insult gutters, and fix and paint our shed. At the same time he power wash the house and paint the deck and stairs. We have recommended him to several of our friends and everyone has been very satisfied with his services

They were always punctual and professional and the communciation with us was great. They showed up exactly when they said they would for the estimate and also each day for the work. When they discovered some rotted wood that we were not previously aware of, we recieved a phone call to let us know about it. They did everything they said they would do and more. It was great to have a company do everything they were supposed to do without us having to ask about it or remind them. The price appeared to be competitve. We recieved one other estimate that was slightly more expensive than this one. Overall we were very pleased with the work and would highly recommend them. We will hire them again in the future.
Description of Work: Pressure washing vinyl siding, cleaning gutters inside and out by hand, replacing rotted wood on porch columns, and priming and painting porch. They did everything they said they would do and more. Not only did they power wash our house, they also power washed the brick walkways and the fence gates. It looked great. They recommended we have the gutters cleaned by hand and we are so glad they recommended that service. The house and gutters all look brand new. The areas where they replaced the rotted wood look excellent and all the wood was prepared as described.
