Highlights
- Missed deadlines — a 2022 review described work taking weeks longer than promised
- Sloppy work — a 2022 customer cited paint spills and fixtures painted over
- Overcharged — same customer said they were charged more than expected
Ken's Painting by Design is a Quincy-based house painter. Google shows a 3.4-star average from five ratings, but the only written review on file is a scathing one. In a 2022 review, a customer described a job that ran weeks past schedule, with paint spilled on their carpet and paint left over light fixtures rather than removed and reinstalled first. The same reviewer said they were overcharged for the work and described unprofessional conduct during the job. With just one detailed account on file — and it's a serious one — there isn't a broader track record to weigh it against. Anyone considering hiring should ask directly about scheduling, protection of floors and fixtures, and get pricing in writing before work starts.

Worst painter ever. Fought with his girlfriend on the phone during the job. He took weeks longer to do a job. Always showed up late to the job, spilled paint all over my carpet. Over charged and did shotty work like paint over light fixtures. If you hire him. Beware! I won't ever again.
