Portland Exterior Painters

" now requires that lead abatement be done on older houses like mine, so, in addition to the usual scraping, priming, and painting, had to meet State environmental requirements for lead removal.  The lead work alone took over 6 full days (complete with bio-hazard suits!), followed by around another ...more 5 days for the actual painting itself. 

did a fantastic job!  Mauri and his crew were professional, skilled, respectful, reliable, and extremely patient.

held my hand during the grueling process of selecting paint colors, and everyone went above and beyond to really ensure that, when the work was done, it exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend

-- they're thorough, great at what they do, and very easy to work with. Fantastic job!"

"Despite the difficulties of painting a cedar shingled house, and his crew did a wonderful job. They were on time, performed exactly what was promised and cleaned up properly."

"Our experience with and his son was exceptional.  Having built a home and done many remodels, we have worked with our fair share of contractors.  We were going to work with a painter we used previously, but he wasn't available during the dates we wanted.  Luckily, I was able to find .  From ...more the start, he was very receptive to the extreme detail I was after in the paint job.  He completed the job in the timeline outlined from the beginning, and he didn't ask me for a downpayment / payment until the job was completed.  My wife and I are thrilled with the final results and have directly recommended him to a family friend.  Our past experiences with contractors have been hit or miss, but I can confidently say I would work with

again.  "

"  was probably the best company we have ever worked with, thanks to the other writeups on Angie's List.  They kept to the schedule, helped us determine if the EIFS had done any damage after 16 years on the housefront, and replaced a piece of framing that was penetrated by heavy rainfall water.  Their efforts ...more were simply outstanding on all tasks."

"It isn't all the easy to find a professional, quality and responsible help - especially at the coast. We feel very lucky to have found . He is extremely professional, reliable, and knowledgeable. His workmanship, skills and talent are superior to any contractors we have ever used."

"I had water leaking inside the house coming from outside.  My house is over 50 years old in which I have owned for just the last three.  There was evidence that this leak has been happening for years.  There were multiple entry points in the front of my house for where it could be coming from.  I decided it was best to replace just ...more that section of  the siding than to try to repair it. 

and team provided me with an estimate of which I got four bids from separate companies. 

's was the second most affordable and he was able to fit me into his schedule sooner than the others. 

was very detailed in describing his estimate along with his recommendations.  He and I shared ideas and materials and came up with a final approach.  There were some aspects of the front sididng that he's leave or cover and most we agreed he'd totally replace. The front section of my house is very tall with a southern exposure that takes a beating from the wind and rain.  They arrived as scheduled to install the scaffolding which remained in place until the job was done, painted and I had a

to inspect.  They tore out all the siding as discussed.  Insulated where necessary and placed waterproof barriers.  

was great in explaining to me along the way the different tasks and layers of waterproofing they were adding.  I felt confident that the leak would be gone for good.  They then replaced the siding and sealed up. I also had them paint the section of siding they replaced before the rainy season started again. 

offered me a discount to paint since the scaffolding was already in place. 

provided me with swatches to choose from.  I was also considering having our family room repainted now that the leak was fixed.  He offered to pick up some paint samples and even painted a few areas in the family room so we could decide on what colors we wanted even though I was going to have that done by someone else.  On the outsite of the house they painted a couple different colors of the siding and trim to help us decide.  After the weather was dry for a few days, they painted.  They did a great job. I was very happy with

's professionalism and quality of work.  I would definetely use them again (and probably will have to given the condition of some of the other siding on the house ;-)."

"I can't be more pleased with the results! and his team were professional, respectful, and timely in getting the work done. He answered all of my questions and made sure that I was satisfied with the work. It is very stressful getting a house prepared for sale and I was most impressed with 's patience, ...more flexibility and ability to work on my timeline so that I could move forward with the time-sensitive sale of my home. The house looks beautiful and I owe it to him and his team!"

"This garage roof replacement project was the result of snow load damage during an extended cold period in December 2008. It became a very challenging project because of more strict county structural codes and because of the changed and unexpected soil and foundation conditions discovered after work had begun. As a result, additional engineering and ...more county inspections were required causing additional delay on top of the wettest winter weather in 15 years. In all respects,

workers and managers adapted extremely well to these changes, kept me informed on how the project completion would be affected and still completed the project to a very high standard. Moreover, project site cleanup was done every day and nothing was left behind for disposal.

in one of the very best contractors I have ever worked with. As a professional civil engineer I look at all of the details and engineering involved in projects to satisfy myself that a contractor is accomplishing the required work correctly and to a high standard. I know my questioning can sometimes be tedious and constant, but the project manager answered all of my concerns professionally to my great satisfaction. Communication with all involved contractor personnel was effective and enjoyable. I want to especially commend

Short, the project manager, and the work crew,

and

. They were all very professional, courteous and accomplished all required tasks extremely well to a very high standard. I have the highest regard for

professionalism and results achieved and would highly recommend this contractor to anyone wanting to see a project done right on the first try."
