The crew of five arrived on time each day and worked for 10-12 hrs/day. Overall, we are very pleased with the outcome. On one wall, we thought an extra coat was required to smooth out some unevenness of color. They immediately repainted the wall without complaint.

Outstanding service. The most remarkable item I recall is that the workers burned off all the old paint down to the bare wood and painted with a primer then with the paint. Most other estimates provided for a power washer. They even burned off the paint in high, out of sight places, where I never would have noticed. The quality of the work is outstanding, the workers were on time, courteous, and cleaned up. I highly recommend this company, and it was less expensive than several others I checked.
Description of Work: Painted exterior, front entrance, doors, fascia, soffit, wood siding, garage, iron railings, front porch, screen porch, carpentry (replace rotted wood), replaced screens.

Perfect! Beautiful work! Solution Painting owner Mario and associates are perfectionist! All the workers are clear experts in their skill/trade. I was amazed at the quality of their performance. No mess to clean up afterwards. I highly recommend Solution Painting and plan to use them in the near future for my upper floor bedrooms and bath. It was a great pleasure working with this company.

A most excellent job. I was scared to paint our house after a painting experience ten years ago, but I am so glad I chose Solution Painting. They patched, sanded, and repaired popped nails. The painting team was professional, considerate and always showed up when they said they would. I didn't know the walls in my house could look so good! As an added bonus, their estimate was some $2,000 lower than two others from Angie's list.

I was able to get an estimate scheduled within a few days of calling. Mario provided a detailed written estimate for the work that he ended up doing, and upon my request, also provided pricing for some additional services since I was on the fence about a couple of projects. When compared with other vendors, they seemed to offer a good balance of quality and value -- there was nothing tricky about my paint job, but I also wanted it done right, and wanted to make sure my house and furnishings wouldn't be damaged. I scheduled the work within 3 weeks of the estimate. The crew showed up on time, but with the wrong paint color. Luckily (and to my surprise), the prep work took all morning and part of the afternoon; Mario appeared mid-afternoon with the correct color and a second crew to jump start the project. What was originally proposed to be a 2 day job was largely completed in one day (they stayed until about 7pm). Two of his guys returned on day 2 to finish up and were gone by lunchtime. Overall the quality was very good. My furnishings were handled fairly carefully, and the guys did a good job at masking everything that wasn't being painted. Communication was a little hit or miss until Mario and his brother showed up, but we got by, and luckily caught the paint color issue before it went up on the walls. One small complaint...on day 2, the finishing team did a sloppy job at rehanging my valances and drape cords - my husband was there and didn't notice this until after they left. Had we brought it to their attention, I have no doubt they would have made it right. We ultimately just re did it ourselves in the interest of time and simplicity. They did a fantastic job prepping the walls and the paint job was excellent.
Description of Work: Prepped walls and painted 3 rooms (living room, family room with cathedral ceiling, and hall bath); grouted shower in master bath.

We had a great experience with Solution Painting. Mario was prompt in coming out for an estimate and very professional in his presentation. We were able to schedule the job right away and have the crew over on a Saturday; very convenient. The crew showed up on time and did a quality job. They were courteous, worked quickly and cleaned up after themselves. We felt that they did very good work at a very reasonable price, and we would be happy to hire them again in the future.
Description of Work: They painted the walls going up the stairs, in the upstairs hallway, and the master bedroom.

The team did an excellent job, from the initial estimate to providing the services. They arrived on the day that they said they'd arrive, and they arrived on time. They were very careful with the two pieces of furniture and the kitchen cabinets. They removed all switch plates and celiing fixtures in order to get good coverage, and they worked for 1 x 12 hour day and 1 x 8 hour day to complete the job. The drywall work was excellent, as was the trim work. I have very high expectations for workmanship, and they certainly were up to these standards. I recommend them without hesitation.
Description of Work: Solution Painting prepped and painted approximately 800 square feet of 2 bedroom, 1 bath home that included a living/dining area and kitchen. They scraped, sanded, repaired multiple plaster cracks, skim coated, and used a heat gun to remove some old trim paint. Then, they applied primer and a single coat to walls, trim, and ceilings. The house was vacant with the exception of two pieces of furniture, which they covered and protected.

Solution Painting did a great job! Nadia showed up a little earlier than our scheduled time to give me a quote (a nice change - since my experience is generally that contractors run late), and the price was very competitive. Emilio arrived to paint on time and was very helpful and professional. The house is quite old and the plaster walls were uncooperative, but they worked through it and it looks terrific. They also painted all the trim. The job took them much longer than expected but they stuck with their original quote. They were also supposed to touch up the paint on the ceiling in one of the rooms but when they arrived they discovered that they hadn't brought the proper paint to do that, so it went undone. They cleaned up well, although a little bit of residue from sanding the walls remained on the room shutters and floor. Overall they did an excellent job!

Excellent! The estimate was for 2-3 days, but they brought two vans-full of guys and got it all done in one day! Two coats! They cleaned up after themselves and even repaired some window trim that was not part of the estimate. They were able to work us in on a tight schedule too.

They gave me a quote over the phone (which was exactly what I was charged), and gave me instructions on how to select the paint color. They confirmed via email the arrival time, address and paint color. The team arrived slightly late (not a huge issue) and did a fantastic job. The room had crown and window molding, as well as hardwood floors, and there was not a drop of paint where there shouldn't have been. The job was impeccable.

Mario came out and did a quick observation of the work needing to be done, then immediately prepared an estimate form. As he was leaving he commented that our garage door needed to be repainted and gave me an estimate for that also. The crew was on time, polite, and very hardworking. They thought the job would take two days but they completed it all in one day, with only some touching up to do the next day. I am very happy with the results and their work.
Description of Work: A 3-man crew painted a large master bedroom and bathroom after it had undergone complete renovation. They primed new drywall and applied 2 coats of paint to all surfaces, including ceiling, walls, baseboards and all trim. They also scraped, primed and painted a 2-car garage door.

I AM DELIGHTED! I certainly appreciated the professionalism of all involved. The crew arrived right on time which was very important to me because I needed to get to work asap. I had changed a few things like adding the kitchen the day before and adding shoe molding the day of. Fortunately, Mario had brought a large crew so they were able to adapt. I had serious doubts they would be able to finish in one day as he had said- because I was simply overwhelmed with it all. But they did and did an awesome job. Previous painters and workers had done such a horrible job, I knew it would take some work to correct it all. The fact that they were able to visually and physically correct the areas with good painting, drywall work and caulking was amazing. I would certainly recommend them to others and will certainly call them again as I have much more work to do.
Description of Work: My kitchen walls and trim were painted. The dining room and a small hallway with 2 small closets and a bedroom with a small closet were painted. The baseboards and doors in those rooms were also painted. They also added shoe molding to the baseboards. The ceilings in the rooms were painted also. There was also a repair made to some poorly drywalled areas.

Project went well. Mario was on time to review work and provide estimate. A large crew showed just before eight and began to efficiently prepare all the areas to be painted. Plastic was used to cover all surfaces and then painting tarps. The crew was efficient and careful. Mario gave close supervision to all the work. The quality of the work was very good. They cleaned up behind themselves. The job was completed in one day. With work going on throughout the house, holding the disruption to a single day was really appreciated.

Impressive: I own a cleaning company and we get a lot of turnover work. I decided to expand the business to include home improvement. I needed a good painting company to work with me in this area. I met Mario Vega (Solution Painting) in a condominium complex where my company was also working. His guys were just finishing up an interior painting job. After seeing the type of work they had completed, I was very impressed. I talked with the home owner and she told me that she was very happy with the work they had done. I asked Mr. Vega to estimate some work for me. He did and we have been doing business together ever since. I am putting my reputation and my company's reputation on the line each time I hire Solution Painting to do a job. They have never let me down and have never let the client down. They always go above and beyond. If there is ever a problem- they take care of it immmediately with no hassle whatsoever. Their price is always fair and reasonable- worth every penny.
Description of Work: Interior and exterior painting; minor handyman work; ceramic flooring. Up to this point- Solution Painting has painted the interior of several homes and the exterior of two homes. Smaller jobs have been accepted- for example: the painting of a basement and the painting of a bedroom only. They have also completed bathroom and foyer tile work. Interior painting included kitchen w/kitchen cabinets; bathrooms; foyers; high ceilings; stairways; stair railings; doors; crown moulding; complete interior painting- every inch of the home- also wallpaper removal; wall repair and caulking. Exterior painting included entire exterior no matter the height; detail work on peeling paint and window trim- repair of rotting and mildewed wood; also outside stair railings.

The team arrived on time and were exceptionally organized. They brought industrial drying fans that allowed for the work to be completed in one day. And the work was meticulously performed. Every area sanded down to perfection. Primer and paint applications smoothly applied and a beautiful seaming trim provided at the base boards. All clothing rehung in their original alignment. Other items replaced in the exact locations that they had been in. And the entire apartment and outside hallway were tidied up most efficiently.
Description of Work: Excellent work done by a most conscientious contractor (Mario Vega). The painting of an efficiency with a 10x16' living area along with half kitchen, dressing foyer, bathroom and front door to the unit. Also re-set area of the refrigerator in the kitchen allowing the refrigerator door to open smoothly. Mario insisted that the dresser foyer could be included when I was hesitant because I couldn't envision a neat removal & temporary storage of the clothing etc that was in that area. But that is what he and his team provided. Every detail, even putting up new curtain rods along the way.

We received quotes for this job from three top-rated companies, all of which showed up promptly for the estimate and were easy to work with. Solution Painting offered two advantages: their estimate was lower than the others, and they planned to complete the work in one day with a large crew (others planned for 3-4 days). We are very happy with the results! They showed up on-time and moved all furniture and things we hadn't moved ourselves out of the way, and covered everything that remained in drop-cloths and plastic. They did an excellent job preparing the walls, worked very hard and were detail-oriented. Despite staying late, they were unable to complete the job within the single day, but as we had added a large section to the job at the last minute, we weren't disappointed- the smaller crew that came the following morning finished promptly. We were left with a bit of dust to deal with on floors, windows, appliances and some surfaces. Overall, a great job and fantastic value!
Description of Work: Painted all of the rooms on the first floor of our house, as well as an upstairs stairwell and hallway. As part of the project, they removed decorative beams on the ceiling of one room, and fixed numerous drywall problems, from poor repairs done by a plumber to cracks and nailpops caused by foundation settling. They also primed and painted the built-in shelving, cabinets, and fireplace mantel on one wall.

Asked quotes from three companies on Angie's with highest ratings. Mario Vega, an owner of Solution Painting, arrived exactly when agreed, provided description of their methods, a quote and an estimate of length of time to complete; they promised to complete in a week, a premium for us, and were lowest bid by significant amount. They were flexible in timing the beginning of the job. Crew consisted of 8-guys including Mr. Vega. They attacked the job like a whirlwind, worked around our constraints of moving room contents. They only ask that you move delicate objects yourself (although we did move considerably more ourselves. They typically remove as much as possible from a room, use protective plastic and ground covers, and then replace contents when through with that area. Quality of paint job was superb - all surfaces sanded, necessary spackling, sinking stud nails, cracks, etc. Did not skimp on # coats, primed properly, and accuracy of painting superb. Job done in only 3-days

Mr Vega came to the house the next day after I called for an estimate. He explained in detail the preparation needed before painting the walls, ceiling windows and door. The job was done in 3 days and I was very happy with the results. The crew directed by Mauricio did an oustanding job. They covered the floor and stairs with cloth,and after the work was finished cleaned the area very well. They were very pleasant to work with.

They got very early in the morning, as I asked Mario. Then they protected all my floors and furniture before painting. They were so professional, after they painted the entire house they cleaned all the areas very well. Finally Mario asked me to walk around the place to see if I was happy with the job performed. And I was impressed that I did not find any single place to touch up.
Description of Work: They painted the entire inside of my house. The preparation work was completed with a perfection detail, walls and ceilings were plastered, sanded, primed and painted. The cabinets in my kitchen were painted with a nice mate-finish. They also installed crown molding in one area (living room).

Mario and his team are FABULOUS. I am a first time homeowner and this was the first time I have ever worked with a contractor; I am so pleased that I selected Solutions Painting. Mario was right on time for the estimate. After a walk through and some discussion of what I wanted, he gave me a clear, written estimate and asked for 50% payment, which I gave him. I needed the job done soon since I had a furniture delivery scheduled, and he was able to schedule the work for four days later. Mario and four workmen arrived right on time, carefully moved all the furniture, and covered everything with large tarps. They are clearly an experienced, cohesive team. Mario supervised the work but also painted the entire time, especially detail work. All of the men were very polite and incredibly hardworking. I have never seen such hardworking and professional workers. I don't know how they did such a great job in only six hours - they are the best!
Description of Work: Mario and his crew painted the interior of my 760 sq. ft. condo - living room, bedroom kitchen, bathroom, foyer, hallway. I did not have woodwork or baseboards painted. My condo was full of household goods, which had to be moved. One large nick in the entryway needed to be fixed, and they plastered over this.

The power washing went fine, but there was a few spots where the color was taken off of the brick indicating they got too close with too much pressure. On the windows, I had to bring the boss inside the house to see what the windows looked like from the inside before they got windows clean. I now believe the right way to have this done is to always have the interior and exterior of windows cleaned simultaneously with one person inside and one person outside. Lesson learned on my part. The painting of the fence went great except the boss couldn't find enough of the right stain, so the job extended into a second day during which they came back at the end of another job to finish mine. The straight A's I'm giving them is for the painting; I would definitely hire them again for painting.
Description of Work: They painted 272 feet of newly built fencing with oil based Cabot stain, power washed our house, and washed our windows on the outside. About half of the crew was idle for a couple hours before the boss could find and return with the Cabot stain. Unasked, they started raking the considerable leaf fall using makeshift rakes. After I showed them where my leaf tools were, they spent the idle time clearing my entire yard (1/2 acre) of leaves before the boss got back. They never asked for extra money for this, but I added an extra $100 on my own.

Mario was on time for our estimate meeting and quoted a reasonable price for the work. Originally, he said the job would take 4 days (Wednesday-Saturday). Explained to him that the work had to be finished before Saturday as I was expecting new furniture. He told me that the work would be finished by Friday. The crew of 10 men came on time Wednesday and completed the work that day, staying late to finish the job. The next day I noticed a nick on a corner of dry wall. I called Mario and explained the problem. They came the next day and took care of the problem. I am so pleased by their work. Everything looks wonderful.
Description of Work: Hired Solution Painting to paint 5 rooms, including wood trim, stairwell and hall. The walls of the guest bedroom were so terrible, they had to plaster all the walls before they could even paint. They also repaired drywall damage and cracks in the other rooms and installed a tile backsplash in my kitchen.

The people that work with Mario are so professional...I never saw that kind of HARD workers. They know what they are doing. I was so impressed when they were preparing and painting, and what I really like the most was that they were taking care of every single detail in the house. They cleaned everything after finishing the job........I am so happy.
Description of Work: They repaired all ceilings and walls on main and upper level, where I had portions of severe water damages. They protected all my furniture and carpets. After all the meticulous preparation they applied a full coat of primer and finally two final coats of paint. Mario would listen to me all the time just to be sure what my expectations were. I could pick any color I want with no extra cost. I would say that my bathroom and kitchen look perfect, and my bedrooms are awesome.
