My experience with 5 Star Painting was excellent. The painters arrived on time and immediately began working. Their knowledge and experience was evident from the beginning to end. They carefully covered and moved furniture and cabinets before painting and returned everything upin completion. I highly recommend Scott R and his crew and give 5 Star Painting five stars!

Scott and his team were wonderful to work with. They installed board and batten, new baseboards, and painted our new nursery. I also had them stain one of our doors to match another. They were very patient, detailed, and clean. Scott was very friendly and a huge help! Looking forward to working with them again.

Reliable, dependable, competitively, priced, in business for a very long time, and clean! I cannot say enough about how satisfied I am with this company and their employees. They painted the ceilings and walls in my condo and did a fantastic job. They went above and beyond by even taking my TV off the wall mount and taking the shutters off my windows and reinstalling them as if the manufacturer themselves had done it. One of the things they had to do was pull out my refrigerator to paint the wall behind it as well as a side wall. Now we all know, that can look pretty sketchy, (Especially if your refrigerator is not on wheels like mine is not). They went the extra step there as well and even cleaned the entire floor under the refrigerator from all the dust that had accumulated in the last several years. They covered all of my furniture and floors, and did not get one drip of paint anywhere it was not supposed to go. They cut the ceilings with precision to the walls and I am telling you they just did a fantastic job. And if that wasn’t enough, they were 10 minutes early on start time. I could not recommend this company enough. Do yourself a favor start and stop with these people.

I was doing a kitchen remodel. Needed Sheetrock repair. I called a few people who either didn’t return my call or never showed up. I did get a quote from another company for $3200. I call 5 Star . They were very professional and gave me a quote for $1100. I gave 5 Star the job plus had them paint my entire house. Extremely happy with the work. The Sheetrock repairs look fantastic. I would recommend this company highly.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
By giving an accurate estimate, we are not looking to add any surprise fees. We work hard to give 5 star quality and service; without a 5 star price.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our lead men on each crew have been painting for over 20 years. We also use high quality products from Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore. Both companies sponsor us in different ways. They both have us try new products as they are coming out to give feedback.
What types of customers have you worked with?
We work with both Residential and Commercial customers. We do not create messes like new construction painters. That is about speed and using lower grade products. We do not consider this Five Star Quality and Service.
