Big Boat provided us with quick and great service. I called on Monday and he started the service on Tuesday. He painted our bathroom painted our stairway powerwashed our house and lastly painted our deck. He was great and the price was reasonable. For someone who lived in many states before Virginia I have to say hands down this was the best service I have ever had when it comes to home improvement.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
At Big Boat LLC, I provide transparent estimates based on the project size, materials, and prep work needed, like addressing peeling paint or restoring historical homes. No hidden fees, and I offer discounts for larger projects or repeat customers when possible.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start by visiting the site to assess the project, discuss the customer’s needs, and provide a detailed estimate for costs and timeline. Once approved, I prep the surfaces thoroughly, apply high-quality paint, and keep the customer updated until the job’s complete.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve got 13 years of hands-on painting experience, starting with restoring historical homes in Richmond and Petersburg, mastering techniques like surface prep and period-appropriate finishes, and now also tackling modern homes with Big Boat LLC.
