Sloppy. That's the one word I would best use to describe this painting company. I hired Ben and his…read morecrew to paint my apartment last December, and ultimately I wish I had gone with a different painting crew. The problems were myriad, including: 1) A shoddy paint job showing a lack of attention to detail. As you can see from my attached photos, there were large splotches of mismatched colored walls in my closet, and a doorframe to one of my closets was obviously not painted carefully as evidenced by the poor finished product. Dried speckles of paint were sprinkled literally all throughout my apartment's floors. I spent well over 8 hours cleaning off all of the dried paint that these guys left behind on my apartment's floors, so they quite clearly do not cover the floors with any protective layer, nor do they demonstrate any care when doing the actual painting. 2) Garbage left in my sinks, and dried paint left behind all over my sinks and bath tubs. Totally understandable that these guys would wash their equipment in my apartment, but totally unacceptable for them to leave a mess of dried paint caked all over my sinks and bath tubs that I had to clean myself. 3) Poor communication and lack of follow up when these problems were brought to their attention. I sent numerous emails to Ben about these problems and gave him multiple opportunities to fix them, but he simply stopped returning the emails. Clearly, Ben and his company show little concern or care for ensuring customer satisfaction. All in all, I would absolutely NOT recommend hiring Ben and his crew for your next paint job. While they are definitely not the most expensive paint crew, the old adage 'you get what you pay for' is quite evident here. The shoddy craftsmanship, piss poor communication, general carelessness and inattention to detail, and disregard for customer satisfaction all add up to money that is most definitely not well spent here, and I would highly recommend NOT hiring Ben and his crew to paint your next project.

Zero liability, shady work and horrible service. Ben…read morepainted our apartment while we were not present. He was supposed to paint the whole apartment but he deliberately skipped some areas including a partial wall painted in gray primer where the whole apartment is painted in white. Upon reaching out to him (in the rare case he answered the phone) he was pretending to be nice but actually was not willing to come finish the job and kept postponing and then not answering the phone. We had to chase him down for more than two months and ended up giving up and hiring another contractor to finish the job.

I had a great experience with Andrew from start to finish. After going through Yelp to get a quote…read morefor installing a tile back-splash in my kitchen, he was very responsive in setting up an appointment for a walk-through and an estimate. His estimate was reasonable for the amount of work to be done and very competitive with estimates I had already received from five other contractors. Andrew and his assistant Matt took about two days to transform my kitchen into something really sharp. Andrew was very thorough and even took care of some odds and ends that were left by the builder (and previous contractor who installed the counter top). Also, Andrew was very neat - he covered the counter top to avoid any damage or stains and swept the floor after both days of working. After they left, you would never know that two people were sawing tiles and working with grout and tile adhesive all day. I wouldn't hesitate to book Andrew for any other jobs I need done around the apartment. It was a five-star experience from start to finish and I'm glad I found the Handy Andy Squad.

He gave us a great price and great ideas for maximizing the look of the space with the use of different colors. We were extremely happy with the work that him and his guy did.

I can honestly say with his help we have transformed our offices and have a new positive energy flowing through the space. I would highly recommend his work!

He was very responsive and made suggestions for other projects I had in mind. I actually ended up using him for 2 more door projects this month. Also reasonably priced and done quickly. Mr. Miles went the extra mile, LOL, and went to exchange a door, that was damaged in delivery, at the store and still installed it the same morning. I definitely recommend him. As with any service, do a walk-through of the work because the team corrects any minor issues on the spot without any hesitation. Good experience with this small company!

Roberto and his team just finished painting two bedrooms for me and did an absolutely gorgeous job…read more Not only that, they fixed some longstanding plaster cracks likely caused by water damage, and replaced some historically inaccurate baseboard moldings that made me cringe every time I looked at them. Due to all the necessary repairs, they were here for 14 days. Each day they were on time, put in a good day's work, and were polite, cheerful, and honest. I've found that a lot of painters like to work with Benjamin Moore paint. I have a thing about Farrow and Ball, and they worked with it, without complaint. Roberto was exceptionally quick about getting me all the necessary paperwork for the co-op approval, and I was able to get it signed off on just about instantaneously. Highly recommended.

It's always appreciate to feel like you got what you paid for but it feels even better when the team you hired goes above and beyond to ensure your every request is met. Wesley and his crew were professional efficient and punctual. They were able to accommodate a my "quick turn around" request as I had a new born arriving soon. They ensured the disruption during the process was minimal and most importantly they remained on schedule from start to completion. I recommend Minali Painting to anyone looking for a reliable company capable of providing quality services you can trust.
