The reviewer said they paid a 50% deposit exceeding $4,000, that the company repeatedly postponed the painting job, and that it eventually said it could not do the work and promised a refund. At the time of the review, the customer said months had passed without repayment or responses to calls and emails. In an August 2023 review, another customer alleged poor work, unfinished contract items and verbal attacks when they asked for corrections. Other dated customers described work they liked. A July 2022 reviewer said Korey and Kelly painted a living room dark blue, left no mess and produced a finish the customer loved. A June 2018 reviewer praised the completed work, organization and punctuality, and recommended the company for interior painting while also mentioning exterior work. The company’s Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles advertise interior and exterior painting, staining, wallpaper removal and power washing. Google lists a 3.4-star average from five ratings; Angi and HomeAdvisor each list 5-star averages from three ratings. The Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+ grade. **Strengths:** - Living room painting — a July 2022 reviewer praised the finish and cleanup **Concerns:** - Unreturned deposit — an August 2022 reviewer alleged months without a promised refund - Work and conduct — an August 2023 reviewer alleged unfinished work and verbal attacks ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - An August 2022 Google reviewer said a 50% deposit exceeding $4,000 remained unreturned for months after the company cancelled the painting work and promised a refund, with calls and emails unanswered. _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://maps.google.com/?cid=10286875437004085649&g_mp=CiVnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLkdldFBsYWNlEAIYBCAA) — “1★ Do not use this company!!!
