Pintona painted us & we were happy with the job. It's held up very well.

Drive around a bit near the middle school (behind the middle school, to be more precise). There are several houses being painted right now - you can observe the work in progress as well as the end result.

I'm sure that if you were to drive around the town for an hour you'd find quite a few projects underway... it might not be necessary, but it could give you some insight as to how these companies operate. Just a thought.

While I agree with Case, I think that it's also a great idea to look at paint jobs that were completed years ago. JC Painting painted my previous home. Three years later, it still looks great! (I can't say the same about my friends who had other companies paint theirs at about the same time.) Jack did take a long time to paint my house, however, because he's meticulous, lets the house dry before the paint goes on, and works with a small crew he regularly employs. It was worth the wait. 908-604-2254

We've recently had both the interior and exterior of our home painted by Painting America and they did a terrific job. I would gladly recommend them to everyone.

I just got an estimate from George Mera and was very professional, got good references too, the price is fair, he painted the inside of my house and I'm very happy with his work.

Mario's Painting painted our home a few years ago (outside and a room inside), and we were pleased.

We are having our house painted by one of the 'big' Maplewood paint companies. We picked them in part because all the houses on our block that they painted in the past were done in a week or 10 days tops.

We're at week 7 now (I'm not kidding). They keep on showing up with only one or two guys, and we have complained to the foreman plenty.
Professional Reliable my a#$

From know on I will always put something in the contract that penalizes them if they take way to long.

If you want to know who's taking so long, drive down Plymouth Ave, right of Maplecrest Park, they are not ashamed to still have their sign out on our lawn.

Give him a call
