Bob Peters Painting does interior and exterior house painting, with carpentry work alongside it on some jobs. A 2026 customer said they hired the company to paint much of their first floor after a detailed estimate and an extensive in-home consultation, and that the work did not match the preparation process or approach described in the proposal. That 2026 customer said Bob was never on site during the more than 2-week project, and that they repeatedly found drips, roller marks, missed coverage, incomplete second coats and paint on fixtures, floors and door frames. The same 2026 customer said mismatched paint was used on the kitchen and entryway ceilings, that they had to hire someone else to repaint, and that Bob has not responded to their write-up and pictures. A 2023 customer who had gotten several estimates for the interior of their home said Bob's pricing was fair and reasonable, and said the foreman, Andie, paid careful attention to detail. A 2022 customer said Bob Peters and his crew re-painted their cottage, called the pricing fair, and named the option of carpentry support as a bonus. A 2022 customer with a two-story house said the company did exterior painting and carpentry work, and that the foreman, Eric, and his crew did the power-washing and painting. A 2021 customer said Bob's crew did exterior painting and minor repairs to trim and wood shingles during a very hot stretch of summer weather, working around the worst of the heat and staying on time. A 2018 customer said their house had previously been stained and was in disrepair, that Bob's carpenter replaced a number of boards, and that the job was done quickly and under budget. The Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+ grade.
We hired Bob Peter's to paint much of our 1st floor after a detailed estimate and an extensive in-home consultation. Unfortunately, the work did not match the preparation process or approach described in the proposal. Bob was never on site during the more than 2-week project and did not inspect any of the work. We repeatedly identified drips, roller marks, missed coverage, incomplete 2nd coats, and paint on fixtures, floors, and door frames. Many items required blue tape for correction, and several remained unresolved. Holes were patched and sanded after painting began. The crew worked limited hours and, on a few days, left during our project to return to another job. On the last day, several punch-list items remained unresolved, and mismatched paint was used on the kitchen and entryway ceilings (requiring us to hire someone else to repaint). We shared a detailed write-up and pictures with Bob; he has not responded. The pics shared here are only a portion of the issues discovered. Show more+5
I was happy with Bob Peter’s Painting. I had gotten several estimates for the interior of my home and Bob’s pricing was fair and reasonable. The friendly crew was professional & focused. Andie, the foreman, was very pleasant, punctual, and hardworking. She paid careful attention to detail and was always willing to address any concerns I might have with a positive happy attitude. I liked them so well I am having them paint my exterior!
Bob Peters and his crew recently re-painted my cottage, and I could not have been happier with the entire experience, from start to finish! His pricing was fair, and the painters were a wonderful, kind, and hard-working group and a delight to have at my house. They had great attention to detail, and the result looks incredible - many neighbors have commented that my house looks brand new! The option of carpentry support was another bonus of working with Bob Peters. I highly recommend!!
Bob Peter’s Painting put the ‘wow’ factor back into my two-story house. He and his crew did a beautiful job on the exterior painting and carpentry work that I hired them for this April. Everyone in my neighborhood keeps saying how great my house looks. “Like a new home,” one person said. I also felt comfortable working with Bob and his staff. From the get-go, Bob was professional, kind, and honest in his communications and assessments. Setting up the initial consultation with him was much smoother and easier than it was with the other companies I spoke with. Eric, the foreman on the project, and his crew (Chris, R.J., and Godwin) did an exceptional job with the power-washing and painting itself. They were professional and thoughtful, and I really enjoyed getting to know them. Overall, I would definitely recommend Bob Peter’s Painting.
Did exterior painting and repair on our home. Our house hadn't been professionally painted for quite a long time and there was a fair amount of minor repair work to fix trim and wood shingles. Bob's crew did a great job during a very hot stretch of summer weather. They managed the heat really well, working around the worst of it and staying on time. They were patient with me when I changed my mind about colors while they were trying to get started. I had gotten several estimates and the price was fair and reasonable. Bob was easy to communicate with and very responsive. It was a great experience all around and I highly recommend this company.
