Reliable & honest

I've renovated 1/2 dozen homes over the last decade and have yet to find a painter I would stick with. One was great but went out of business, another was also great but terribly slow and the rest charged a small fortune for a crapup paint job and terrible attitude.

Needless to say, I'm thrilled to have found Scott. He's quick and reliable but even more important to me is that he's honest - he actually charged me less than originally quoted as the job was not as much work as originally anticipated - and he's a pleasure to have around. I didn't hesitate giving him a key to my house.

I'm hiring Scott again in the new year to paint my part of the house and I will be recommending him to my friends and colleagues in the real estate business.

For this job, Scott painted the walls and ceilings of a 500sqft basement apartment (no trim work or interior doors) as well as 3x exterior doors inside and out.

My only suggestion is to consider upgrading to BM or SW paints. Scott uses Behr unless you request otherwise. I know a lot of people (incl painters) love Behr but I really saw a quality difference between it and my usual BM Aura. As it was a tenanted apt, the lower cost paint is just fine but for my part of the house I'll be spending the extra for top quality paint that doesn't mark or scratch off so easily.

Approximate cost of services:
$1,300.00

Tracy, thanks for the wonderful review and for taking the time to write it! It was terrific working with you and I especially enjoyed the ice cream and chocolate bars you brought me :)
Thanks also for the comment re choice of paint... I've had no trouble with Behr but am always up for client choice... I just try to keep things affordable for everyone unless an upgrade to top line or specific brand is requested. Completely appreciate the input though, truly.
Best to you, and look forward to future endeavors at your beautiful home! Thanks again Tracy.
