We got our condo painted and had a great experience. Clear communication, timely delivery and decent pricing. I would highly recommend.

I wasn't thrilled with the work done. Original quote for painting our house was a 'special deal', and 2 coats of dunn-edwards paint was part of verbal agreement. Got 1 coat of Sherwin Williams paint that was watered down enough to leave drip marks after drying. It was applied unevenly and they needed to return. The 2nd coat was not applied to entire house and they painted the rocks to my house. Although they did clean up their mess when they had 1st come out, they left a mess in the front and back yards the 2nd time, as well as getting paint all over my rose bushes and grass, as they covered nothing up on the 2nd trip. Daniel and his son, John, are quite personable and accommodating, and for all I know one of their painters was having an off week. I still have patches that had been missed completely, but I will do it myself, as I wouldn't need to do if it had been done right the 1st - or 2nd time. Calling a 3rd time for a continued poor job of it would seem to be a learning disability on my part. read more

UPDATE: Daniel did reach back out and paid for the repairs to the irrigation system and had his team complete the job on my balcony. I'm Thomas's neighbor and tagged on to the work done on his property as we are neighbors and have the same wood. I was similarly underwhelmed by the work done but accept some blame as well as I did not question the scope of work as Thomas did (not that it mattered). I just moved in and had a lot of irons in the fire so to speak. I would like to add the the treatment did not include the back side of the open fencing and balcony from the best of my knowledge as we were never instructed to move anything off balcony that would have clearly been in the way of applying anything to the wood- stain or otherwise. Additionally, the team damaged my irrigation line with their ladders and I arrived home to a flooded out patio after work was completed. I did inform Daniel about the repair cost and he claimed he would cover it but did not return as promised to provide payment. Thankfully I did not have nearly the same amount of wood as my neighbor so this was not as costly as a mistake but I would still be wary of hiring. read more

Approved the quote and when it was time to start the project, they up the price by 20% claiming material inflation. This was weeks after having the proposal signed and schedules set. Wasted everyone's time. read more

Daniel just completed a wood siding refinishing project for me. The wood was beginning to fade from the beautiful red-brown color to a more grey-yellow look, and I wanted it restored to the original finish. I had used a different contractor two years ago, so I discussed what that person had done and the materials he used (Deckwise Ipe oil). Daniel was not familiar with that oil, so I showed him a picture of it. Daniel told me he preferred to use a different material and would actually use a stain on the lower fence, since it would better handle the wear/exposure that the lower fence would be subjected to. Daniel told me it would be a 4-day job with a possible need for a 5th, since there was a lot of work to do. Everything sounded reasonable, so I signed the contract Daniel had prepared immediately after our conversation. Daniel's crew performed a soft wash of the siding and then applied a clear protective coating over the wood. That's it. The 4-5 day job was at best 3 and an hour or two. And the results speak for themselves. The wood is maybe the slightest shade darker, but there is no noticeable color improvement at all, especially considering this was intended to be at least a 4-day job. Daniel also informed me as his crew was wrapping up that he was unable to find a stain for the lower fence that would match the rest of the siding, so his crew would just be applying the clear coat. The lower fence, which is partially shaded, is actually now TWO completely different colors - half is the faded grey-yellow where it is exposed to the sun and the other half is a rich red-brown color where it is constantly shaded and protected from rain. Normally, I would say it was simply a terrible miscommunication between us and move on, but I had made it absolutely clear that I wanted the color of the siding to be restored. And given that the lower fence will be two different colors AFTER Daniel has completed the work boggles my mind. When I brought this to Daniel's attention, he claimed that we had never discussed any of this and that the contract said he would only use clear-coat. And he was right. The contract says what it says, and my reading of it without understanding painting terms let that slip by. None of the extensive conversation we had moments before he wrote up the contract in his truck was in this contract. There was no mention of the color I wanted for the siding or the materials I wanted to be used. I guess I really overpaid for some clear coat. It is 100% my fault for assuming that Daniel would attempt in some way to do what we had discussed. We had even talked about working out an annual maintenance plan for Daniel to return each year to freshen up the look of the siding. Clearly, that won't be happening. If you just want to get a sense of his work. Take a look at the pictures. For the money I spent, there is no meaningful difference. The person I used 2 years ago made a dramatic transformation, and he made sure the lower fence was stain and scratch free (as well as one consistent color) before he asked to be paid. Daniel couldn't even do that. read more

D Holden Contractor Inc just completed a complete exterior stucco and trim paint job on our home to our complete satisfaction. We worked closely with company rep John Holden to identify our precise color choice and to see that their highly professional and efficient painting team completed the project correctly and on schedule. After their completion of this project, we engaged the firm again to paint a newly constructed wooden fence and gate. The specs called for 2 primer coats plus Dunn Edwards Ever Shield paint. Project completed in two days. Our thanks to Daniel and John for overseeing the work. read more

Holden Contractors did a phenomenal job on painting our house (which hadn't been painted in decades) and performing a repair/facelift on a roof that badly needed some TLC. John, his son and their crew arrived promptly every morning on time, they worked hard and left the job site clean every evening. Their work is of the highest quality at a reasonable price, the customer service is impeccable, and we would very much recommend Holden Contractors for all your painting and roofing needs.

Did not hire. Quote was more than double what other (reputable) companies quoted me. Get multiple quotes, people!

In early June D Holden Contractor completed the exterior painting project on my home. For a decent price Daniel and his crew did an outstanding job! They kept the job site very clean during the project and were very polite. What matters most to me when hiring a contractor is honesty, efficiency, and cleanliness around the job and Daniel accomplished all three of these on my project. read more

Daniel and his team did an excellent job doing an exterior two story paint job. They had excellent attention to detail, filled all stucco cracks, and other imperfections (they even fixed a gutter) before painting. They were super responsive, and completed on time. Excellent value. read more

HIRE THIS GUY. Seriously. My mom had met him originally, and told me she wanted to hire him to paint her house. I was frankly skeptical. A few months later, I got bids from multiple contractors to paint her house: its interior, exterior and surrounding fence and garage. I remembered Daniel, and asked for a bid from him as well. I've heard nightmare stories about painters, and random contractors, so pored over all the bids as they came in with some trepidation. Daniel's was 50% lower than the competition, so I called to set up a meeting. He was SO NICE and personable, just super down to earth, I decided to hire him. Lo and behold, he and his team of equally personable, professional and courteous painting guys showed up and did AN EXCELLENT JOB. They were clean, they were fast, and THEY DID AN INCREDIBLE JOB!! WOW!!! I would not hesitate to recommend this guy for ANY work assignment. Just as good as it gets. A++++ read more

After reaching out to several contractors and either getting no one to return my calls or put through a customer service center and talking to a robot I was very pleased when I heard the owner answer the phone (Dan) who answered my request within minutes. Dan came to my rental home at a scheduled time. And was very understanding of the work I wanted done (complete exterior remodel) including roofing,gutters, and exterior painting. He gave me a fair estimate with a price breakdown for each of the three projects. He was very accommodating with my schedule and very prompt and professional with the project. I have and will recommend D Holden to everybody who needs roofing or painting done to there home or business!!! read more

Overall Daniel's team did a good job repairing the stucco, painting my house and the trim. Daniel responded quickly to call calls and problems. Daniel came back with his helper to do touch ups when requested. Their were a few problems: Contracted to replace a door and then refused to do it, contracted to put metal trim at the bottom of the garage door and instead placed some kind of adhesive pad and painted over it for a rumpled effect, promised to complete work before payment due and then requested partial payment before the work was completed and lastly refused to accept payment made out to his company's name and would only take a check written out to his personal name. Except for power washing the house all work was completed by subcontractors. read more

Poor communication. I spoke to the gentleman giving me the quote . And when I followed him to follow up he said someone gave him that phone cause the other guy was hurt. And he'll get back to me shortly. I don't know about his workmen-ship. But you loose with me when you lie to me read more

I answered the door to John Holden, Daniel's son, who offered to give me a free estimate for fixing the trim on my house and repainting the shingles and stucco. The price was right and he and his dad, Daniel, started work that afternoon. They brought in two workers and all four did an incredible job painting the exterior of my house. Not only was the price right, but everyone was warm, accessible, knowledgeable and hard-working. My house looks amazing. My dog also loved them! It's nice to know a contractor who's reliable and honest. One of the best decisions I ever made was to hire Daniel and his company. read more
