## The honest read

Plateau Painting and Remodeling is a Norton, MA painting and remodeling business.

In a 2002 Angi review, the reviewer said Michael Mahoney provided "a first class painting job," that Plateau began the job on the day they promised and stayed with it every day until completion, and that the house and yard area were cleaned up thoroughly at the end. In another 2002 review, about work on the reviewer's first home, the reviewer wrote that Michael Mahoney and crew offered "an extremely competitive price" and added extras like installing base board/moulding for the kitchen at no extra cost. A separate 2002 review said the reviewer chose Michael Mahoney and his crew because they had experience painting aluminum siding. In a 2003 review, the reviewer said Mike and his crew began the job ahead of schedule and that Mike "did everything that he said he was going to do and more."

In a 2003 Angi review, the reviewer wrote that it had been six weeks since they last heard from Mike, the owner, with new trim still bare wood and basement windows not painted, and said the spray painting job was done "with very little regard for my new Pella windows, deck and doors." A 2003 Angi review said the reviewers had paid 2/3 of the total cost, but the company only powerwashed, sanded and put on some primer, and for over three weeks did not answer the phone, voicemail or e-mails.

In a 2004 Angi review, the reviewer wrote that they came home to a flood in the foyer area during initial demolition, and that Mike Mahoney, the owner, said everything would be restored to its original condition but it "was not done to my satisfaction." That 2004 reviewer also wrote that the bathroom tile had grout all over it, called the painting work "very sloppy," and said he would not return any of their phone calls.

**Strengths:**
- Promised start day — Plateau began as promised, per a 2002 review
- Clean-up — house and yard cleaned thoroughly, per a 2002 review
- Kitchen extras — base board added at no extra cost, per a 2002 review

**Concerns:**
- Unfinished work — 2003 review: 2/3 paid, then no answer for weeks
- Foyer flood — 2004 review: damage not restored to the reviewer's satisfaction
- Overspray — 2003 review: little regard for new windows, deck and doors
