I contacted a number of contractors to inquire about repairing the concrete floor in the basement…read moreof my 80-yr old home in Portland. Jamie from Custom Concrete of Maine was definitely the right person for the job. He replied to my online inquiry and came to the house to check out the project within 24 hrs. He gave me a detailed cost estimate before he even left the house. The next day, he worked a 10+ hr day and completed the project. He communicated clearly with me about the extent of the work; he told me when to expect him at the house; and he gave me project updates along the way. Based on my experience with other concrete contractors in the area, Jamie's rates are very reasonable. In the end I was happy with the repaired floor. He's one of the good ones and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again!

I had an appointment scheduled for 9:00-10:00 AM and received a text message at 7:30 that they…read morecouldn't make it because they had to meet the fire department at an active chimney fire. It doesn't seem plausible to me that it would be necessary for them to be there since the fire department would be too busy dealing with a fire to talk to them. I realize that going to a fire is far more exciting than meeting with a prospective client. These last minute cancellations have happened to me twice before with other companies I have made appointments with in the past year. It must be clearly understood by the managers of these companies that people often times have to take time off from work and deal with other inconveniences to meet with workmen and last minute cancellations are unacceptable. You only get one chance with me. Next time I will reschedule and purposely miss the appointment and let them know what it's like to have someone waste your time.

Let me start by saying that we would HIGHLY recommend Atlantic Painting solutions. We met Dave…read morethrough our local NextDoor website and he was great! He came over initially to clean out our chimney for a VERY reasonable price but after evaluating it (even climbing on the roof), he didn't find anything to be concerned about. He initially declined payment because of how little effort he put in and didn't want to rip us off but we were more than pleased by not only his professional demeanor and knowledge but also his honesty so we still offered compensation. He has a lot of knowledge regarding home repairs and even offered to assist with handyman work around our house. We already plan to work with Atlantic Painting Solutions in the future regarding household projects. Two thumbs up!

The other thing they live by is their honesty and service - David kept us informed when the job was delayed, assuring us all along the way what was happening and when he would be on site. I feel confident I'll get more years out of this paint job due to the quality of the paint itself and the care taken when putting it on, and that makes it well worth the wait.
