One recent job at Polke Painting & Remodeling LLC began as an outside paint job and grew into popcorn ceilings removed, baseboards and a front door replaced, and almost all of the interior repainted. The company says it has been in business 40 years and lists Southbury, New Haven, Fairfield and Litchfield as its service area. On Google it holds 4.6 stars from 51 ratings.
Painting is the steady work. A 2024 customer said the company recovered kitchen cabinets from the wrong paint a previous owner had used, with removable parts taken to a shop for spraying. A 2025 customer said their 51-year-old kitchen cabinets were painted, and that Mr Polke gave a reasonable price and worked around their schedule. Color choice is part of the job: a 2025 customer said Pam helped choose colors for the cabinets, walls, flooring and trim. A 2023 customer said Greg, the owner, returned the call for an estimate the very next day.
The remodeling side reaches whole rooms. A 2024 customer said Greg and crew worked 16 straight days to finish remodeling two bathrooms, with Pam serving as design consultant. A 2025 customer said the company rebuilt a bathroom and kitchen after a flood and worked with the insurance company. A 2022 customer described a bathroom renovation that involved removing an old cast iron bathtub on a second floor, along with tile, shiplap and molding.
A 2025 customer said paint started peeling off the house three months after the whole house was painted, and that calls brought promises to stop by that were never kept. A 2022 customer said the company damaged a cook top, acknowledged it, said it would make good on it, and never answered their call again.
