Student Works Painting West

They are cheap and they offer a lot of services that make it extremely attractive. They offer warranty on the paint. They were able to do all the painting within a few days during the summer. I would recommend this.

Professional and courteous painters. Job completed to expectation and overall was satisfied with what we got for what we paid for. Main problems stemmed from timeliness and lack of clear agenda - sometimes painters would show up, sometimes they would not and time estimates were never too accurate, understanding that setbacks could occur. Also painter damaged a portion of my wall through powerwashing - although they took responsibility and replaced it for me.

I would consider getting a quote from them in the future again for any work, and recommending others to do the same, but to shop carefully and ask for work references. They are OK on the lower-mid end of the price range but not for much higher as you're essentially getting college students on minimum wage to paint your home.

Hired them because of their company policy and the fact that they would guaranteed their work. Unfortunately, the painters were sloppy and did not use tarps (as promised in their work description). This resulted in paint spills being left on our vinyl deck for a few days before it was cleaned up. The product they used to clean off the spilled paint actually took the finish off our deck material. They suggested painting the vinyl, however this was unacceptabl as the deck was in excellent shape and still had at least 10 years left to its life. The end result was that Student Works had to replace the entire vinyl surface of our deck. This cost them close to $2,500.
After 1 year some of the paint around the door frames is peeling off. This is due to the fact that they did not prep the frames correctley. I will not be using them to correct this problem (even thought they guarantee their work for 3 years) as I do not want to have more unqualified painters working on my home.

I would not recommend this company.

I had my Mom's condo painted in August and I was told there would be 5 painters and it would take 2 eight hour days to complete the job. After day one, I got a call saying they were finished.
I looked at the walls and was surprised to see that they only did one coat and missed a lot of spots. They came back and when I went the next day, there was paint on the kitchen cupboards, 5 dining room chairs, the table, and the curtains.
I moved furniture out today and discovered paint on the carpet, dishwasher, and some unfinished places. It appears as though they purposely hid their mistakes.
I opened the bedroom curtains and found 3 big blobs of paint that was left to run and dry.
These painters did an extremely sloppy job and put no care or effort in their workmanship.
I will never use your company again and I will be posting this on multiple websites advising against using your company.

The staff at Student Works are so professional and friendly. Their unsolicited quote was much appreciated and they were the lowest quote as well. They finished on time. I will definitely use them again!

HIRED TO HELP PAINT HOUSE - INERIOR AND EXTERIOR. VERY GOOD JOB DONE. PAINTED 3 TIMES. QUALITY OF PAINT WAS GOOD. WORKMANSHIP WAS GOOD AND ETAILED. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMNEND THIS COMPANY IF YOU NEED AN LARGE PAINTING DONE TO YOUR HOME. MY WIFE AND I ARE HAPPY WITH THE RESULT. PAINTERS WERE NICE AND CONSIDERATE TO REQUESTS.

We were given an estimate by a student works wrep in April 2010.
We were given the assurance that ALL prep. work would be complete prior to painting.
On a very rainy morning two students that we believe never painted a day in their life started painting.What a mess. We asked the two to leave and come back when the weather was more appropriate.
There are the reasons why we would NOT recommend Student Works Paintin:
1)Prep work was NOT complete this caused the wood to blister only after a couple of months
2)All the windows were painted shut.When we forced open pulled OFF paint and wood.
3)Paint was on the stucco.Paint was on the windows.Paint was dripped on the deck.
4)No clean up was ever done.We were responsible for all cleanup
including the mud.
5)The warrenty is in such fine print it is impossible read.If the pay't is not made in full even if the
job is unsatisfactory there is NO warrenty

We received a few quotes from various companies. When we had student painters come out to provide us with a quote, we were very pleased with their professionalism. They did a wonderful job painting the exterior of our home.

came in to clean and paint our 5 level split house. Did a great job! Job came in on time, on budget, with excellent results. Repaired cedar siding and touch ups as well! Cleaned up after themselves well.called about one missed spot, and it was handled promptly!

The whole process working with studentworks was mediocre at best.
I saw a sign in the neighborhood and gave them a call for a free estimate. It took over a week for them to get back to me and when we made an actual appointment, they were a no-show with a lame excuse.
While their painting job wasn't a disaster, it certainly wasn't top quality work. They didn't do a very good pre-scraping/sanding job, our windows were stuck, & they left garbage on our property for us to deal with. Our garage, which was a stain job, had to be re-done, and the final product is still sub-standard in our opinion. The only saving grace is that they guarantee their work for 3 years. I may have to call them within that time.
