Quality Painting

Quality Painting is Joshua Tassie's painting business in Milford, New Hampshire, working interiors, exteriors, staining and cabinet refinishing across the Milford, Hudson, Merrimack and Nashua area under several Google listings that all point to the same phone and website. New Hampshire licenses no painting trade, so there is no registry credential to check. The record splits sharply. Satisfied customers — roughly two-thirds of the thirty-eight written reviews from 2021 to 2025 — describe next-day quotes, jobs finished within the week, clean cut-in work on cathedral ceilings, furniture carefully protected, and Josh walking the finished job with them. But a persistent minority, from 2022 through 2025 and repeated on the BBB profile, tells one story: a deposit or full payment taken, then no-shows, unanswered calls and an unfinished job. One 2024 reviewer paid a year earlier and was still waiting; a 2025 reviewer says a friend's deposit was never returned and charges are being pressed; two BBB reviewers describe the same deposit-then-vanish pattern; another reports a rushed job with paint on new fixtures and a peeling banister. BBB grades the business C+ with one complaint on file. What to know before calling: the complaints are not about paint quality so much as about money paid up front for work that did not happen. Google's headline stars — 4.4 and 4.0 across the two main listings — do not convey that pattern. If you hire, keep the deposit small, tie payment to completed work and get dates in writing; the crews that do show up do good work.
