October 2025, I hired MHC Painting for my Bilco doors and stairwell the cost was $1200.00. July…read more2026(9 months later) the paint is coming off. It's clear that 2 coats of paint were not applied to either the doors or the walls. I contacted Mike, today, 7/24/26, he was not only unprofessional, but extremely argumentative. SIDE NOTE: Please also note the painter gave off extreme racist energy. I was so uncomfortable, I walked to my neighbors house and asked her to come back home with me; she also was disturb with the painter's energy. As I do NOT feel at all comfortable with Mike or anyone from his team to come back to my home, again, I am forced to move forward with hiring a NEW painting contractor to correct the $1200.00 MHC paint job then take action against MHC Painting in small claims court for the reimbursement cost to have the job redone correctly. Mike challenged, stating it would be impossible to take him to court. Based on my experience I would not recommend anyone have contact or do business with this unprofessional painting contractor. BE for warned ..... DO NOT HIRE this contractor

Won't be using his painting services ever again. Hired him to paint our solid wood cabinets. Owner…read morecame out for the estimate. Been in the trades 28 years and was in the middle of renovating my personal home. Went over everything with him and my concerns with my new floors going in ($7600). He said not to worry, he'll cover the new floors. He was taking the deposit and went downhill immediately. Came home from work early on day 1 primer. All the cabinet doors were off as he stated except the lazy susan door. Painter claimed hinges were broke, it was 2 loose screws that i tighten with a screwdriver. They never took that door off, also didn't remove the faces of my 7 drawers, which is a whopping total of 14 screws. So the lazy Susan door and drawers were painted in place lol. The guy had a few drop clothes scattered not covering the floors, that have been in less than a week! Drop clothes are for carpet, paper layment for hard surfaces. I offered to cover the floors, which costs $13, but he said not to worry. While rolling the primer on, little white splatter dots on my new dark wood flooring awesome . The guy there insisted he can't see it, but I can easily see it. He cleaned, left and I continued to find more paint on my floors. The guy came back, clearly annoyed and even said I was "busting his balls." Joking or not, you don't say to customers/homeowners lol. My wife came home, went into the garage and saw boogered paint, puddled and drips on the first coat of primer on the doors, same with the drawers and lazy door which painted in place. After getting paint on our new floors, of course we're going to inspect even more. Sent Mike pictures, immediately called me up and was extremely rude, nasty and unprofessional. Talked to my wife like a 5 year old. He said they'll sand everything, and those paint defects will be removed. Day 2 a new guy showed up with the same guy from day 1. He was professional and attentive. I asked the original guy if I should remove my microwave, which is only 2 screws so he had easier access to paint the side of the cabinet above the range. Told again not to worry about it, they'll handle it. That evening, we decided to remove it because 3 inches under the microwave was exposed, and needed to be primed and painted. Keep in mind, primer has to sit 24 hours, and they already had 2 coats of paint on by the end of day 2. At the end of the day, we still saw paint drips, little puddles of it sitting in odd spots and primer boogers now painted over with 2 coats of finish paint. At this point, we just wanted them to hurry up and get it over with. Day 3 they were done fairly early and it was a one foot out the door situation. I told them we'll make the final payment when my wife gets home from work, as this was her project. Mike once again got nasty, changed his voice to I guess sound like me and be a smart ass. In my 28 years working with homeowners directly, I never talked down, argue and anything with the homeowners. Now inspecting after they left. They forgot to put the little rubber pads behind some of the doors causing them to stick to the fresh paint, ripped the paint completely off the cabinet. He's trying to blame us, but they won't take responsibility. Didn't cover appliances or my new floors! Treated my home like it was an apartment. Paint on my stainless steel range, dishwasher, microwave 2 inches wide across the entire top, and splatter all over my stainless steel refrigerator. There's no excuse . Drips, puddles, chips, paint on my glass cabinet door, paint on a few handles, i guess when the did touch up. Still finding paint primer splatter on my week old floors. This was a joke of an experience. Supposed to be professional! Here's some fabulous pictures. Do yourself a favor and just do it yourself! $3,000 and this is what were left with!​ I also included a screenshot of our text messages. Pictures do not lie!

Five Star Painting did an excellent job repainting my (old, built in 1900) house and I highly…read morerecommend their services. Both my house and the attached house were painted at the same time, so the work was extensive. My neighbor and I had agreed to work together on the project; we live on an historic designated street, and the town of Princeton, NJ requires coordination of colors, architectural details, safe removal of lead paint, etc. We agreed to seek at least three estimates and in-person consultations for the work. Joe, the owner of Five Star, was our last consult, and afterward we agreed that if the price was fair, we'd hire his company. The price was reasonable - neither the cheapest nor the most expensive we were quoted. As soon as we received our formal estimates we sent out the required deposits - half of the total price, with the rest to be paid upon completion. Five Star is truly an owner-operated company; the owner, Joe, was onsite virtually every day of the project, directing work, and often working himself. This proved to be very necessary, because the block on which my house is situated is more like an alley - houses are very close together, parking scarce, and the neighbors are, well, very involved and vocal at every stage of the project. Joe and his crew did fine work on these old houses; they went from worn and even dilapidated, to crisply bright and refreshed. Very simply, the houses look good, but getting them there was no easy task: lead paint to carefully and safely remove; frequent repairs to old woodwork and moldings; and, importantly, keeping the neighbors informed and content at every stage of the process. In short, I was delighted with the work of Five Star - everyone at the company, from the office staff to every worker, was unfailingly polite and competent. I'd like to specially commend Joe, the owner of Five Star: kind, courteous and informed, he is the sort of trustworthy service professional that one encounters only rarely. If you need a painter in the Princeton, NJ, area, Five Star is a superb choice. Chris G.
