We love Bob and his sons. They did painting and carpentry work for us 6 years ago and then again this past spring as we got our house ready for sale. In both cases the quoted price was the final price and as I added other items to the scope Bob priced those items separately and for a very reasonable amount. Quality of work is very good. And Bob's personality is a lot of fun. I love the way he talks about plaster cracks and holes in the wall - for example, "this guy here needs a patch and then he should hold for a long time" and "that fellow there is a problem but I will take care of him tomorrow." If you hired Bob, you wouldn't regret it, but I might ... because he might not have time on his schedule for me!
Description of Work: Interior painting, replacing cracked plaster ceiling with new drywall, installing crown molding, installing a new staircase rail on the basement stairs.

I contacted Bob to obtain an estimate for the repair of two damaged floors and the painting of the interior of the house. Bob was prompt in returning my initial call. Likewise, he was able to fit me into his schedule to meet and provide an initial (free) estimate within the same week. Bob's carpentry work and the paint job was outstanding!! He was efficient and provided daily status reports. I would (and will) definitely use Bob's Carpentry and Painting again.

We contacted Bob and outlined what we wanted and told him our timeline. We are getting the house ready to put on the market but wanted the work done prior to the holidays even the house is not being listed until Jan. Bob was very accommodating and was able to come out and complete the deck so we could have exterior pictures taken while things were still in bloom. We then set up a schedule to have the whole interior painted by Nov. 15th so we could have the interior pictures taken before the holidays. Also while he was here he completed some other minor tasks to help get everything in order such as caulking around our shower and painting the metal railing that were not in the original estimate. Upon completion he has offered to come back to do any minor touch ups we may need.
Description of Work: Painted the whole interior (including closets) and the rear deck. Also did some light carpentry work to update the fireplace.

Bob and his sons do outstanding work; they are very efficient and quick. Also, they leave everything clean and neat. Bob's Carpentry is multi-talented. The next major job I plan to have Bob's Carpentry do is to build my deck. I have been using this company for a number of years and I have always been extremely satisfied with the outstanding work that they do. They are very professional and cordial.
Description of Work: Repair/sealing of cracks inside house along with touch up painting throughout the house.

He is outstanding and efficient. They are very neat and quick. He knows his product very well and he painted in accordance with the home owners association. After he was done fixing what the movers did, you couldn't even tell that it happened. He can do anything and everything. He is the best! His work is excellent!
Description of Work: He painted the exterior of my 3 level town house. He also fixed part of the carpet where furniture movers had damaged it.

Mr. DuShane arrived for the estimate on time and called back in a couple days, with a quote, as he said he would. To save a couple hundred dolIars, I ended up going with another firm, that sprayed the paint. In hindsight, I wish I'd had this firm do the job - roling would have given better coverage. Mr. DuShane - maybe next time; I'll keep your number.
Description of Work: The job was to pressure wash and paint a stable with T1-11 siding, using latex stain. He would have rolled on the stain (vs spraying).

Their estimate didn't include some of the work that I needed. They couldn't do some of the things that I needed. I have had an excellent experience with them. They have done some excellent carpentry work and painting in my house, so I went to them for this work but this was a bit beyond their capability. The quality of their work is very good for what they charge. Their price is very good.
Description of Work: I got an estimate from Bob's Carpentry And Painting in January for the hardwood flooring.

Great. Bob and his sons scraped, primed, caulked, cleaned away mold with bleach, and painted. All the painting was white except the doors, which were painted red. I was having trouble finding the right shade of red, the chips and the paint never seem to be the same, and Bob sold me on Duron's Farmhouse Red, a standard color but a beautiful one. They did a fantastic job. They took 2 1/2 days. Their prep work and their painting was meticulous. No spills or drips, no cracks left in any caulk, no chips of scraped paint all over my flower beds. They were professional, courteous, and friendly. Bob was great about keeping me informed from start to finish. When providing the estimate, he itemized his prices, which were very reasonable, and explained everything that was included. Each day after completing work, he left me a voice mail about what he had done, and he reviewed the scope and expectations of the work at the beginning and end of each day. They did all the little extras, which I mentioned above, such as installing the locksets and house numbers and disposing of all the old things. The paint was included in the price, and the work is warranted against peeling, Bob said, "if it starts to flake on you, even years from now, you give us a call and we'll take care of it. We guarantee our work." I am so happy with them that I plan to use Bob to repair our screened porch and for interior painting and repair projects, too.
Description of Work: Bob and his crew (his 2 sons) painted nearly all the painted surfaces on the exterior of my brick house including soffits, trim boards, doors, most windows, columns, and a dormer. They also painted and sealed shut an attic window that was partially open and installed a new front porch light. For no extra charge, they also installed new locksets on the doors that they painted and new house numbers.
