Coat O Color Painting, Inc.

John was great and very professional. My walls were not in great shape due to over painting and poor dry wall assembly. John took the time to painstakingly fix the walls where there were imperfections and patch all the holes.

John was very reasonably priced and worked within the time frame originally set.

I would recommend Coat O Color to anyone looking to freshen up their home or business. I will continue to use him for projects around the house.

There’s a reason this painter has so many 5-star reviews!

The HOA let us know we needed to freshen up our 5-year-old house. It looked fine to me—maybe just a little scuffing on the white trim--but we hated the sludgy brownish color of the siding, so we started collecting bids for repainting.

John was too busy to add us to his schedule, but he was nice enough to text back several times about the job, and I asked him for advice about the other bids. As we talked, John was surprised that the house needed repainting so soon and asked for photos of the damaged paint. He said he could clean it with a chemical wash—more time-consuming than a pressure-wash, but loads cheaper than repainting. And if we didn’t mind waiting, he could fit it into his schedule when it was too rainy to do his other painting jobs.

I was just expecting a clean house. I wasn’t expecting a completely different colored house! But that’s John gave us. It turns out that the house wasn’t sludgy mud brown, it’s a light avocado green. You can see this best on the photo that shows the green (cleaned) area on the right and the brown (dirty) area on the left.

John scrubbed and took hours getting our house clean, and his attention to detail shows everywhere. There was an area on the porch by the flower bed that had gotten splashed with red clay. John had warned me that he wouldn’t be able to clean that. But he worked like a dog, and now it’s beautiful! And he even touched up the white trim for us.

Because John was coming back the next day to finish up, I asked him to tackle a couple of interior paint problems too. My husband had patched two drywall holes but had had to leave to take care of his mother out of state (COVID) before he could finish. John finished up the patching work with a real artist’s eye for making those problems disappear and then did a meticulous paint job over them. I walk by them dozens of times a day, and it’s like they were never damaged.

But the most wonderful thing about that interior work is that JOHN KNOWS HOW TO DO DRYWALL WITHOUT SANDING! Those of you who’ve ever had drywall compound dust in every little corner of your home know why I put that in all caps. There was no dust this time because John uses a damp sponge and magic (at least, as far as I could tell). In fact, all of John’s work at our house seemed a little magical, but that’s what happens when a highly skilled professional works very hard to make a job turn out right.

In every way, John was a delight to work with. He’s an all-around great guy and an interesting person too. He communicated clearly and regularly, arrived when he said he would, accomplished what he said he would and more, and left behind a neat and orderly workspace. I didn’t realize until after he left, but he even took the time to fix my screen porch door! And his prices were so reasonable that I felt a little guilty when I saw how hard he worked to earn that money.

JOHN IS AMAZING!! He painted my entire first floor and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. My walls had tons of flaws and John worked tirelessly to fix them all. He went above and beyond to make sure his work was close to perfect. His attention to detail is impressive. I definitely recommend him to anyone looking to hire a honest, trustworthy, hardworking painter. I look forward to working with him again in the future.

I would give more than 5 stars if I could! John was VERY detail oriented, had extremely quick and easy communication, and was very careful not to get paint on floor, carpet, etc. and also very careful to not scratch hardwoods (very respectful of our home). The job he was tasked with was not easy as it was two story with a lot of twists and turns but he did it to perfection! He went above and beyond and we are very pleased. Will use again! Thank you for your work!

Great job! Very satisfied. John chemically washed my vinyl sided ranch home, making it look like new! One area, on the siding, had rust stains that had been there for years, gone! Completed some detailed trim painting with perfection. Restored a nearly rusted out chimney cap, looks great and saved me $$. Really nice guy, clearly very experienced. Kept me up to date with each step of the process, and pricing was reasonable and clear. Will hire him again!
