+ -1 moreWe have repeatedly tried to contact Unviersity Painters with no luck. They use a national call centre, but we cannot connect with a real person. Literally dozens of voice mails have not been answered. I have used them before and they did a first rate job. It is a shame that the level customer service is so poor they cannot even make an effort to let me know they are running late, or have decided not to take the job. Right now, I am so disappointed and I now have to see if I can find another contractor who might be at least willing to return my call.
Description of Work: William Howland of University painters visited our home in Norrthwest DC to provide an estimate for painting the exterior of the house.

Description of Work: Exterior painting including windows. The manager who came out to give us a quote was prompt, professional and personable, so we thought we were in for a positive experience. The crew supervisor did not supervise his teenage nephew/cousin and the experienced painter didn't dare say anything to the kid about his poor work for fear of retaliation from the supervisor. The kid painted over peeling paint and spilled paint on our 1 yr old roof. They deducted the cost of the roof work from our final price but they'll need to come back and scrape/repaint the areas that are peeling badly. Now that spring is here I will be calling them to make good on their guarantee.

+ -1 moreThe painters that showed up did a good job. At the end of the job, I tried to pay with credit card and was inform that it would be 3% more. So I got on the phone with the sales rep (Matt) and Matt started to throw an attitude and became very unprofessional. He did waive the 3% as it was not previously disclosed but hung up the phone on me before I can finish talking to him about his unprofessional behavior.
Description of Work: Painted master bedroom ceilings and walls

Description of Work: I contacted Univ Painters for an estimate & had to wait a week for the appointment. On appt day the estimator was supposed to meet me at 5. At 4:59 she left me a voicemail telling me she's running late but can make it to my house by 6. I called her & left her a VM telling 6pm was fine, my 3 year old and I were waiting. 6 pm came &still no estimator. 6:30 I called her thinking she was lost instead she said she was still at another estimate appt but that she could be at my house by 7 pm. Once again 7pm passed & still no estimator. I finally left with my tired & hungry 3 year old so I could give her dinner. The estimator called me around 7:45 letting me know she was at the house but by then i was in the middle of feeding my daughter & could not pick up. She left me another VM apologizing for being a little late. A littlelate is maybe 20 min, this chick was over 2.5 hours late! why would I want to hire them for a paint job when they can't show up for an estimate?
