We were in quite the jam and Michael SAVED US!! We needed to have our house painted over the 4th of July weekend. We are renting our home out in Va Beach and would only be in town that weekend. Michael was the only painter I spoke with willing to take on the job on such short notice. Initially, we hired Michael to paint the first floor, stairwell, and second floor hallway. But when we saw the house, we knew it all needed to be painted. Michael had no problems expanding the scope of the project, despite an already tight schedule and working over the holiday. The turn out was AMAZING! I love the new color. His team is so professional. The new paint color completely transformed the house. Also, there was shoddy work performed by another so-called contractor who didnt caulk in the door frames and didnt even prime a replacement door. Michael and his team took care of all of that without even being asked. They care about your happiness and a job well done. They painted the whole house (about 1600 square feet) in about a day and a half. Its funny because my husband and I went to the home improvement store to pick up some items for the unit. When we returned to the house, my husband asked me what I wanted to start with and I said," nothing, I think its best we just stay out of their way." From when we left in the morning to returning in the afternoon, most of the house already had the first coat of paint and/or was cut in already. On another note, our HVAC unit started leaking and water was coming down from the ceiling. Michael called us right away and gave us the heads up to head back to look at this. When we returned, his team had already turned the unit off and put down cloth to avoid damage to the carpets from the leak. They supplied buckets while we tried to do damage control until the HVAC company came. In the end, we got through with minimal damage. Im so thankful they were there. I am extremely pleased with the service and final product. As my husband and I worked through the unit cleaning areas, I kept finding little things that Michael and his team did, i.e., touching up areas in the closets, door frames, etc. It was such a relief. I highly recommend them and will definitely call them for any future projects needed. In fact, looking to hire him for pressure washing as well. Overall, great guys and team. Thanks again Michael!!

This company deserves above a 5-star rating. For me to say this is very rare as I am a person who is very fastidious and meticulous. When I initially contacted Michael for the estimate of changing color paint for the exterior of our home, I knew right then I wanted him to do the job. The estimate given was very fair and was within our budget that I did not feel the need to call anyone else. I was dazzled by his friendly, professional and caring demeanor. It was like speaking to a family member, that is how comfortable I felt. Michael kept me informed throughout the entire process. I must admit, I was nervous about the paint colors and finish but whenever I called to ask him questions, he would put me at ease. His crew came to power wash the house beforehand and did an awesome job, and so quickly. The one thing that truly impressed me is that Michael and his hard-working, courteous and dedicated crew came on a Saturday morning only to paint trim/soffits but Michael knew I was anxious in seeing the stucco color so that I could get a visual, he started painting away. He was climbing the ladder even with an injured leg. He noticed my excitement and kept on. Michael and his crew finished the entire job the next day which was a SUNDAY. This experience exceeded my expectations by far. What should have taken several days, they completed in so little time. Mind you, our home is two story tall over 45 feet and the stucco needed two coats of paint. I just cannot express my gratitude to this company for going above and beyond. Our house now is the most elegant and glamorous looking on the block! People walk by and give compliments all of the time. I simply love, love the transformation! All I can say is that Michael is a man of his word, his work ethic, integrity and respect is totally OUTSTANDING. His sense of humor is contagious too! For anyone looking to have painting done should call Michael only….no need to look any further for other contractors. He is a "MICHAEL-ANGELO" in my book! I will refer him to all of my friends and family. There is no doubt that I will call him again for future projects. God Bless you Michael and your AMAZING team!

From the very first prompt return phone call from Michael through the entire job, Michael and his crew were excellent. Michael was able to come earlier than originally planned to provide an estimate for the following work: painting outside, fence around the perimeter of the property about 200 feet with front brick pillars and lattice work; to painting inside ceilings 2 rooms and and front door entry way. Oh by the way he suggested a special solution washing of the gutters and soffit, which revitalized our paint to looking like it was just freshly painted. Not only is the workmanship superior but the attention to detail was impeccable. There were extra things that Michael saw that needed to get done and without hesitation he went ahead and did extra that was not part of the estimate. WOW how impressive, usually our experience is that nothing extra is very done without the expectation of more money. Michael reminds us of years ago when contracted workers went above and beyond and made sure you were 100% satisfied before moving on to the next job. He even asked me to call him the next day to make sure on one ceiling a hard to cover plaster area was completed to my satisfaction! We would highly recommend Michael for any of your painting needs, just an honest, trustworthy guy. Randy and Stephanie Lloyd

We had a big big job to do, moving into new home we bought from out of state, needed to have complete inside (all walls, and all trim), and outside trim (brick home) painted in 7-10 days before moving in. We did not know who to use since out of state and needed someone we could trust not only with doing the job, but giving the key to our new home!! We found Michael online and via HomeAdvisor referrals, saw great reputation and great reviews so after talking to Michael who made us feel at ease and comfortable with big project, decided to trust Michael and his dedicated team (been together long time). We were not disappointed at all, and would recommend to friend and family anytime. GREAT service, fair prices, great work, great team... did everything they said would do, and much more, was on time, on budget, great quality and very efficient and on time with project as said would be. Came back when said would to finish few jobs we wanted done later, even if harder on their schedule, and again was great. Now doing more work since such good company. There are many painters to choose from, but only one I would go to and recommend now that have work with Michael! Also great to make recommendations on what to do, or not... Martin
