Columbus Exterior Painters

"Overall we're very happy with the results. The attention to detail was good - the lines between the 4 colors of trim are excellent. They took a pragmatic approach in dealing with the needed wood repairs; the results in each case look great and were cost-effective. Once the the job was started, they stayed on it until completion. They finished in a ...more timely manner, and left the site relatively clean. The house looks great, and the total cost was very competitively set. Highly recommended."

"We had a great experience with this company...and we are not easily impressed. and his crew were our painters... they were meticulous, careful and their attention to detail is great... the house turned out great and the trim looks fabulous.. worked us even though we changed our trim color prior to them ...more starting to paint it... he put up a sample to let us look at it and we realized there wasn't enough contrast, we picked a new color that night and he called us the next morning to see if he should pick up new trim color... he called prior to starting and stopped by at the end to make sure we were happy with the work...

and

were great to work with as well, communication was exceptional all the way through... we highly recommend them."

"I contacted FP in mid September and got an estimate by email, and in fact we did all our followup communication by email, which was very convenient. , the owner, approximated early October for the job, depending on weather. When the weather cleared, he emailed me to alert me when the power-washing would take place, and because ...more the weather was good, he and the paint crew arrived the day after the power washing to do the paint job. The cost included the power wash, scraping, priming, caulking, and two coats of paint, and I got a 15% Angie's List discount (that is, it came to $570 after the discount.) The crew did a beautiful job. They were quick, professional, meticulous. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat."

"He asked for half of the cost upfront so he could buy supplies. He said he would start the work a couple of days later. He didn't show up. I continued to call him and he continued to push it back week after week. After about six weeks, I decided to take action. I spoke with him again and he said he would come the following week, but again, he didn't ...more ever come. I tried to come up with creative solutions for the problem; among other things, I offered to let him pay me back in installments if he could not return my money in full upfront. His phone has been fixed so it doesn't take my phone number, so I have not been able to reach him. At this point, no work has been done, but he has cashed my check."

"Had a bit of trouble getting them scheduled around their work load and our availability, but once they came they stayed till completed even after I added the second bathroom and the storm door to the original job. I have used them many times and have always found them to be very good."

"we've used this company for a variety of exterior jobs, but one stands out in my mind. In February 2010, we woke up to water and ice seeping into our house through windows that were completely coated in ice. With snow still coming down, a gap had opened up between our roof and the gutter, causing a wall of ice to form on the outside of our house and ...more to enter the house through windows along that side. We called

, and

came out immediately. He identified the problem, chipped away the ice, and repaired the problem section, all in the snow storm. At one point, he was able to find a type of sealant that would bind to the gutter under water in freezing temperatures. What could have been several days of a seeping, leaking disaster was resolved quickly because of

and

. This is a company to keep on speed-dial."

"The crew was polite and the leader asked me a few questions to start with and then they began their work. We have a house that is built on a slope down to a creek. They had ladders that were tall enough to reach all areas easily. They didn't damage any of the landscaping. When they left all that was left was a beautifully painted exterior to our home."

" was a terrific painter! He came recommended to me by a friend who inspects homes for a living, and then I learned he's also a member of Angie's List! arrived promptly for our first appointment, then prepared a professional, easy-to-read proposal to paint our exterior trim. What I liked most about the proposal ...more was that I knew exactly what I was paying for--itemized for each feature of the house. His fee was competitive and he started and completed the job when promised. His set-up, clean-up and the work itself were immaculate. He communicated to me throughout the job. He is obviously someone who enjoys painting, which I think is important. It's clear that he takes pride in doing a great job. All aspects of his work were outstanding. I also like the fact that he is a one-man company?I was confident that he would care about the quality of his work?it's his reputation, after all. Last but not least, the painting of two window frames had to be delayed until we remove our window air-conditioning units a month from now, so

offered, at no additional charge, to return in a month to complete this work, at which time he will receive the final payment. Very impressed with
