Last 6 months: 4 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Express Painting & Decoration LLC is a father-and-son painting outfit: a customer who recently had the exterior of their home painted and repaired named them as dad, Dave, and son, Bruno. A 2025 customer described David Braga and his son, Bruno, as the owners and principal painters. Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, number HIC.0645409, is active on the state registry under the name Express Painting and Decoration LLC. While painting underneath one customer's deck, the staff found several rotted stringers; they replaced the stringers and power washed, and that customer said they cleaned up after every visit. A customer said Bruno painted the interior of their house and was neat and careful in the house. In Naugatuck, David and Bruno painted a customer's entire interior, replaced the flooring and fully remodeled the bathroom. A 2025 customer described the work on a 1923 multi-story house: power washing, extensive scraping of chipped paint, replacement of damaged siding, primer on those areas, then two coats on the trim and the entire house. A 2024 customer said David and Bruno removed wallpaper and an antiquated popcorn, repaired old ceiling damage and painted a master bedroom, after an earlier job on a newly built three-season porch. A 2024 customer said they did both carpentry and painting on the exterior of the house. A 2022 customer said David and Bruno repaired large holes in a bedroom wall, repaired or replaced missing baseboards and painted the ceiling, door and walls in two days. A 2022 customer said there was no dust from a lot of interior sanding and the work areas were taped off. On Google, the company holds 5 stars from 32 ratings. **Strengths:** - Rotted stringers found — staff spotted and replaced them while painting a deck - Exterior prep — a 2025 customer described scraping, siding repair and priming - Dust control — a 2022 customer said interior sanding left no dust - Daily cleanup — a recent customer said they cleaned up after every visit ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Connecticut home improvement contractor registration HIC.0645409 is active on the state registry, held by Express Painting and Decoration LLC _(confidence: high)_ - [State License Registry](https://www.elicense.ct.gov/Lookup/LicenseLookup.aspx) — “CT hic license HIC.0645409 registry-verified active — registry holder of record: EXPRESS PAINTING AND DECORATION LLC” - David Braga and his son, Bruno, described by a 2025 customer as the owners and principal painters _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT25Ob2VWODBYM1ZOU2xSWFNtRjJTMmcyTjNkZlEwRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x4ef30fb5efae23e8!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOnNoeV80X3VNSlRXSmF2S2g2N3dfQ0E%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Superb workmanship, unmatched high-quality standard and attention to detail, and fair and competitive pricing are the trademarks of David…” - Exterior painting and repair of a home _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2tOWlNWWmtVazFPV0cxNVMzcEplVVJ4VlVock4wRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x4ef30fb5efae23e8!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOkNZSVZkUk1OWG15S3pJeURxVUhrN0E%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ We have recently had the exterior of our home painted and repaired by Express Painting.
