I have used Juan now for multiple jobs at my home from complete exterior rennovation to fine trim…read morecarpentry work on the inside. Juan's crews are a joy to work with. Considerate and hard working they are truly impressive to see work. Their quality craftmanship and attentional to detail should make this company the first quote you get on absolutely every job. When I have a problem I call Juan, and he fixes it without putting me in the poor house. Juan is a great GC and someone I trust. To be Frank you'd be stupid not to hire this company for any of your remodeling needs in my opinion they're the best, but don't take my word for it hire them and see for yourself.

I was asked by Yelp to provide a review of this company. I have an investment property I own in…read moreChattanooga. I had this company come out for a previous quote on a whole-house renovation to this property. Juan came out but forgot to submit a bid (no problem). I gave them another opportunity to work on installing siding on the house. He came out and told me they would give me a call with the bid. After some days had passed, I had to call them back to ask about the bid. He stated that he would call me back, but never did. I called again, and he requested we meet on a Saturday (required me to drive from out of town) to make sure we go over everything. We scheduled a meeting time, and I drove in the night before to meet him. The meeting time was at 10:00 AM. This time had passed, and after several calls from me, he texted me an hour later saying that he was not going to be able to meet me but would meet the next day. I replied back with a text explaining how I no longer want to use their company due to the lack of professionalism and courtesy shown. I did thank him for showing me this now rather than later. People really need to call out companies like this to help others from making mistakes from so-called "Professionals".

We had a horrible experience with a local painter on our home and were in search of a painter who…read morecould paint a rental we had acquired. I sure didn't want to repeat with the lousy company that shed paint all over my wood floors. My hubby found Ricki Vazquez and had him come out and give us a quote. He arrived quickly, gave us a great bid and we have been VERY happy with his company. They arrive on time when they say they will, something most contractors have a hard time doing. There at 8:00 AM each day with a team ready to hit the ground running. They protected all the surfaces NOT getting painted, removed all doors and mission shutters and then after refreshing, rehung same perfectly. They worked long days and got the job done, cleaning up each day upon completion. I would highly recommend this company and I will state up front, I am a demanding pain in the butt as a customer when folks are sloppy and I never was anything but happy with Ricki Vazquez Painting. Great job!!!

The pros: - Rhonda…read moreis responsive, and they allowed me an extra week when I requested to push back the project. - The price seemed quite reasonable. - I had not completed a part of my project, and they took some money off because they didn't have to paint what I had not completed. - A hurricane came near our area during the project, and they wrapped up in a decent timeframe. The cons: - They painted my trim with a totally different color than I requested -- the old color, not white, which I had requested. - Their drywall work is subpar. They said they would fix "all imperfections," but it wasn't close. The drywall work they did do was, in most cases, rushed. Some examples: they taped a joint, and did not add more mud around the tape and create a flat surface, so now there's clearly tape that's painted over. Where they did patches, they clearly did not sand. Some imperfections were not corrected at all, including exposed joints above door frames. I had one wall that was a complete disaster, and they did a pretty good job on that one. - Some parts were not painted at all. A ceiling was edged, but not painted. On the final day during a walkthrough, I pointed out several things. They did not complete all of those tasks, including not finishing the trim in a room and not touching up exterior doors. They did paint part of the trim, but not all of the trim in that room -- and on the part they did paint, it appeared to only be one coat. - The old color shows through in about 15-20% of the house. They kept saying "that's two coats," which I can only imagine means the quality of paint was low. They did add more paint in a couple places I requested, but the old color still comes through on the edges of those areas. They must have just rolled those select areas, but did not hit the edges. - On the final day, one person was walking around patching drywall after it had already been painted. Those patches were clearly not sanded, and several of the patches from the final day were not painted over. - They painted the exterior doors, all of which have widows. There is paint all over the window edges. I expressly said on the final day that the paint should be removed from the windows, but it wasn't. Another job for me. I now have to hire someone to come in and do the drywall properly, and then I have to paint over whatever the new drywall person fixes, as well as things that weren't painted at all. - There are paint drops all over the place, and trim areas were either not taped or not taped very well in a lot of areas because there's paint on floors around trim. My project was a big one, and the walls were not in great shape, but I don't think they did their best work on this project. Rhonda was great, and they guys were friendly, but at the end of the day, I now have much more work to do and have to spend more money because the job was incomplete and poorly done in the cases I've outlined. I do not want them to come back to fix anything because if they don't fix something that I expressly point out, I don't expect them to fix things properly on return.
