"Painting By Ken did a great job painting the exterior of our house. The crew was professional, thorough, paid attention to detail and kept the job site nice and clean. Chris was easy to work with arranging for the project and we are very pleased with the result."

"After an initial agreement on a color choice and once sampled on the house, I wasn't pleased. Chris authorized six different color samples to arrive without any additional costs until I made my final choice. Not only are we pleased with the outcome, a few neighbors asked for the contact info."

"We just had Painting By Ken paint the exterior of three houses. The projects managed by Chris and the three crews did an outstanding job. They were thorough, professional and paid attention to detail. All three houses look great. I highly recommend Painting By Ken."

"Ken and Chris did a great job on our interior house painting! We were up against a tight time frame to get our painting done before our move in date. Ken was able to come out right away to give us a quote and his pricing was very competitive. His knowledge and experience he shared during the walk through sealed the deal for me. He was able to get a crew out very quickly and they got the job done within a week As promised. The team did a great job prepping the walls (were some cracks before but aren't there now) and Ken's recommendation on a shade of white was perfect. Will definitely be using Ken and Chris in the future!"

"I was on a tight schedule to sell my house and buy a smaller place. Received multiple bids to prepare my house for sale. ... I had about a week to get my house ready for sale - his team was like a well-oiled machine that split up the tasks and painted the whole house plus the kitchen cabinets in less than a week. ... Only took one open house to sell my house!"

"We hired Painting by Ken at the suggestion of our Real Estate agent and we couldn't have asked for a better company or results. Chris did the estimate and work on our tight timeline. His crew worked on our new (new to us) house while we were on vacation. A few spots were missed and he sent a painter over immediately to fix those and everything looks great!"
