No matter how many times I told them to remove the outlet covers and sand/paint behind them (we were putting in new, smaller outlets), I found outlets left on and painted over. I have also found several roller heads left in the paint cans (one can had 4 roller heads!!). I would also warn that if you decide to use this company, you will want the estimate to be very detailed. I ended up in a dispute over what was included in the estimate.  (Hide)

I was surprised how fast they worked on the outside of my house this weekend and how well they treated their painters. The workmanship was close to perfect and accommodated me on small issues with no fuss. This was the best quality work for the price - I don't think any other professional painting company could have matched them.  (Hide)

(More) Our Kitchen, bathroom, closets, crawl space as well as the painting for the interior and exterior parts of our home were professionally improved. Shan and Tom supervise a dedicated staff and actually sketched a plan for what would give us more space in our kitchen. Shan emailed proposed prices, dates and times and cleaned as they worked. I'm thrilled with the work on our small but well detailed home and it we got a contract in (7) days after putting it on the market. Our neighbors, family and friends could not believe the speed, convenience and clean up Friendly Painters and Contractors provided for our service needs. They return calls, give you estimates in writing and stand by their word. When an error occurred due to miscommunication, Shan our contact person responded appropriately with responsibility and professionalism. At no time were we treated like "just another contract". I will recommend them and continue to use them going forward. Thom, Shan keep up the great work! Tonya Bah  (Hide)

Their initial estimate was the best of four (one contractor I did not hire later beat their estimate, but I stayed with Friendly). They worked with me on the details I wanted. When they began the project, they showed up the first day at 8:00 a.m., and for the next two weeks, were there typically from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Work progressed quickly. And throughout, they met, or went beyond what I contracted for (e.g. extra lights, extra circuits, etc.). There were a couple minor snags, but in the end, work was completed in a timely manner, with great results. The people we worked with were clearly interested in making sure we were pleased with their work. Communication was sometimes challenging. Many of the folks did not claim English as their primary language, and the company's e-mail system / website was down the entire time, but we made it work.  (Hide)
