Do not hire them the painters are unqualified I had to hire new painters to "fix" all of their mistakes. The father is never around supervising the project For three days he was at meetings only to come at the end of three days to collect the money.
Very kind, accommodating, professional.
This company has two different profiles one listed as Ballou Builders stating been in exisitence since 1995 all these great reviews mostly siding docks etc. The other is listed as Ballou Builders LLC. since 2016 [Jan] Here they talk about himself as being a master carpenter and he and his sons work together with quality work. Mabey for larger indoor and outdoor projects,but not for painting walls and woodwork. One son is 18 yrs old,the other is21 years old and he acts as forman. The last one is in his 30's and just started in Jan. He came here from the Bahamas for Xmas.The only one that had any real experience was the 21 yr old. He tried hard to do the kitchen ceiling but it came out terrible! They decided to popcorn it on Monday, since a whole new ceiling was the only other choice. Monday we had 3inches of snow,the roads were fine. I called three times to see where they were. Left voicemails etc from 9-11am nothing from him. He had alot of fixing up on my walls. Floorboard moldings not good. They needed to be sanded and cauked. Paint all over the walls from improper painting of floorboards Different whites very noticeable. after i called Homeadvisor to complain he finally called around 3. Saying he sent me a email that day @ 1130. I asked why he didn't call,had no answer.only that he sent an email @1130. I had called another painter by 300pm to come a finish my ceiling and fix their mistakes. Call if you want for other projects but beware when you call for painting you get the three boys,he never comes unless its for the quote or to get paid. Beware!
Excellent work! Ballou Builders, LLC came and sidied the exterior of my home. It looks amazing.. like a new house!! They also painted the interior of my home.. living room, bathroom, bedrooms and kitchen. Justin and his entire crew were professional, respectful and courteous. I am beyond thrilled with the work that was performed. I will definitely call Ballou Builders, LLC again for our summer projects! Thank you Justin, Forrest, Duncan and Phil!! Great job!
