They were so friendly and helpful through the estimating process. The team arrived on time and were very professional. After they left and the first sunrise we saw the spots missed, the roller marks, the drips, the missed repairs. Yes, we should have more closely inspected, however it was evening and the light made it look good. We were so thankful that we looked past the workmanship. After a few days, and a few morning light, it looked bad and as we looked closer things were missed. I guess blinded by how friendly they were. My wife sent emails and received no response. We gave up. Learned to live with it. Then 1.5 years later they contact us asking for a review. Are you kidding??? All the disappointment and feeling taken advantage of came flooding back. Another email sent. We were kindly disregarded. Watch out from the smiles , friendly disposition. If you contract with them, make the requirements crystal clear, review their work, hold back a percent of payment until you are satisfied.

I have worked with them on a variety of interior & exterior home painting and remodel projects through the years. Without fail, they completely crush it (in the best way possible) every single time I work with them for a project near the Madison and Fitchburg area. More specifically, the owners Matt and Andre have an extraordinary focus on customer care and quality that I've never seen in past painting contractors I have worked with in Madison. By all means, I ardently recommend 3rd Gen Painting for any Madison house painting or deck building needs you may have. They simply will NOT let you down (truthfully, I don't think it's part of their DNA).

Genesis DOES use subcontractors! DO NOT HIRE THEM! I signed…read morea contract with Genesis, in part because a big part of their sales pitch, and all of their promotional materials, say that they do not use subcontractors, and that all of their painters are hourly employees, to ensure that they do not try to rush the job or cut corners. I have less-expensive estimates from other companies that I could have hired if I wanted sub-par painters. My house was painted by a crew who is NOT employed by Genesis. This crew prepped my 4 bedroom, 2 story home in less than 4 hours. The supervisor, who showed up only occasionally and was very difficult to reach, told me, repeatedly, that they were behind and had a number of other jobs lined up, so they needed to hurry on my house. The crew showed up, twice, when it was raining and I had to turn them away. My husband and I spent hours having to manage the job. I was also told that, because my house was built in the 1930s, I would have a "historic home" crew assigned to the job. This crew, clearly, did not know how to prep, or paint an older home. Additionally, I found paint chips all over the perimeter of our house, despite the fact that there was lead-paint concern because of the age of the home. While the work was being done, I called and talked to Bob, and another Genesis employee (I don't remember her name) to complain about the quality of the work and to express my concern that the humidity meter wasn't being used, as well as the fact that the crew was attempting to paint my house in light rain. I also complained about the fact that I didn't have a supervisor onsite, and that I wasn't receiving daily walk through. I was told, twice, that this would happen, it never did. When the work was completed, Theresa, in the business office, called to collect payment. I informed her that the house was not painted properly, and she confirmed that we did NOT have a Genesis crew on the job, and that instead our job was subcontracted to a former Genesis employee. I let her know that I was not going to pay for the job with the house in the state that it was in. Brandon, the owner, got involved and demanded payment. When I refused, he told me to contact an attorney. It was only after I informed Brandon that I had, in fact, spoken with an attorney and was advised that Genesis had committed fraud in the inducement, that Brandon agreed to send a Genesis crew out to fix my house. It looks fine now, but I wasted countless hours dealing with this. I absolutely would NOT recommend Genesis Painting as you have no idea who may show up to paint your house. If you have already signed a contract with them, my advice is: to have the crew supervisor show you proof that you do, in fact, have Genesis employees working on your house; insist that the supervisor remains on-site throughout the entirety of the job; insist that the supervisor shows you all of the materials that will be used on your house--the first crew tried to save money by not using masonry paint on my chimney and exposed foundation, despite the fact that it was outlined in the bid/contract. Genesis may have been a reputable business at one time, but they are now willing to cut corners at the customer's expense and Brandon will try to bully you into payment, even if you are not happy with the quality of work.

Tom was very responsive upon first contact and was able to come out to estimate the job within 1-2 days. I was very appreciative that he helped point out some areas in the living room and kitchen the were in serious need of patchwork and repairs from the previous DIY job. Within about another day I had a project estimate that I found to be very fair considering the amount of work that was required. Tom personally helped me pick the color and provided suggestions when I was unsure of paint finishes and a few minor details. Scheduling the workers was easy and Jason and Josh did a fantastic job. The wall patching was well done and the retexturing just made everything look right. They covered a living room with vaulted ceiling, kitchen with a skylight, dining room, and hallway in just a couple of days. Throughout the project Tom was communicating frequently, providing status updates. The painters cleaned up after themselves and left everything in good shape. I will definitely be contacting these guys again for my next project.

We recently hired Megna Painting to paint the exterior of our house. Before hiring Megna we met…read morewith six other companies who met with us and provided quotes. After reviewing the quotes and meeting with each company, it was very clear that Megna was the best choice. First, Mike Megna met with us personally and provided some excellent suggestions to bring value to the project without pushing the cost upward. Second, Megna clearly outlined the scope of work, what is included and what is not. They included more scope than the other companies and their quote was one of the two lowest in cost. There was no aggressive sales push, just a request to let them know if we have any questions. As the project start date approached Mike Megna met with us personally to provide guidance in color and materials selections. He gently challenged us on some color choices which, in retrospect, made the project so much better than it would have been without his input. He also provided us a clear understanding of what to expect during the project, and started the project as scheduled/promised. Megna's crew was exceptional! They were super friendly and did an excellent job of prepping for the actual painting. They masked areas not receiving paint (stone facace/windows/etc) very well and made extra efforts to protect our other property in the vicinity. Mike Megna stopped by often to check on progress and to make sure we were happy with how things were going. The project turned out beautifully! The painters did excellent work that exceeded our expectations. They left the site spotless and were very focused on their attention to detail. We highly recommend Megna Painting and, based on our fantastic experience, have already committed to hiring them to do some interior painting for us. It is so refreshing to see a company that: is very competitive in pricing, provides such a high level of quality in their work, exceeds what is expected by the customer, provides a high level of personal involvement by the owner of the company, and does not "nickle and dime" the customer with change orders and scope creep. On top of all of this, Mike Megna is a great person and a delight to work with. Extremely happy with our choice!
