One customer of Painting Solutions Etc says they have used Doug for over twenty years, with their house exterior painted several times plus many interior projects. When that customer found carpenter ant and rot damage on a three-season porch, Doug assessed the damage and provided a timely solution. On the BBB, Painting Solutions Etc., LLC describes itself as offering painting services, and its BBB page shows an A+ grade. A customer who has hired Doug three times over about eight years said he and his crew prep and repair surfaces before painting. That customer most recently had him install beadboard paneling and trim. A customer whose four jobs covered an exterior house, an exterior deck, a master bedroom and a family room said Doug and his guys did a lot of prep work and repaired a lot of exterior rot they found. A customer who calls Doug the owner said he has painted and repaired their house inside and out multiple times. Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0574304, as active, held by Painting Solutions Etc.
We highly recommend Doug! After being impressed with how the first job he did for us came out, and seeing how polite, clean, and professional he and his crew are, we've since hired him two more times over the past 8 or so years. We've never been disappointed in his work, and his price always seems very reasonable to us. He and his crew do a great job prepping and repairing the surfaces for painting (an easy place to cut corners, but makes a huge difference), and the finished product always looks fantastic. We most recently had him do some carpentry work in our home (installing beadboard paneling and trim), and it came out great. I've never hesitated to recommended Doug to anyone who has asked if we know a good painter.
Doug has done four jobs for me over the years. Exterior house, exterior deck, master bedroom and family room. I'm impressed......he and his guys did a lot of work prepping (which is a good sign) and paint job looks great. They repaired a lot of exterior rot that they found. They are neat, clean, and polite.
We have been using Doug at Painting Solutions for over twenty years and he has always done a great job at a fair price. He has painted our house exterior several times as well as many interior projects. He's our go to painter and recommend him often. We were grateful for his help when we discovered carpenter ant/rot damage on our three season porch that required major structural reconstruction. Doug was able to assess the damage and provide a timely solution.
