## The honest read

Embassy Painting is a painting company, and a 2025 customer said it painted two rooms and did a wallpaper job, with clear communication and work fit around their schedule. The company's website says it has been in business for 21 years. Its Rhode Island home improvement contractor registration, number GC-27923, is active on the state registry, with David Roderick DBA Embassy Painting as the holder of record.

A 2022 customer said they had waited 10 months for another person to do their wallpapering; David called back the same day, came the following day for an estimate and started the day after that. A 2023 customer described a wallpaper project that was not an easy one and credited Rob with the job. A 2017 customer said the quoted project covered wallpaper removal, taking down wall-mounted cabinets and countertops, patching walls and painting walls and ceilings, and that some rooms had three layers of wallpaper.

A 2018 customer had three rooms and their ceilings painted, along with the doors and trim in each room, and said Dave called back the day they called. A 2017 customer said David and his crew painted the outside of the house and called the quote fair. A 2015 customer said their cabinets were refinished and a new backsplash was put in behind the stove. A 2011 customer described a pressure wash of a paver patio, outdoor rugs and outdoor furniture.

A 2013 customer said they failed to use a drop cloth to protect new hardwood stairs and that the stairs would probably have to be refinished.

**Strengths:**
- Wallpaper removal — a 2017 customer's quote covered rooms with three layers
- Quick start — a 2022 customer said work started the day after the estimate
- Interior room painting — a 2018 customer had three rooms, ceilings, doors and trim painted

**Concerns:**
- Unprotected stairs — a 2013 customer said no drop cloth covered new hardwood
