A recent reviewer said Douglas's painting job was finished on time and there were no problems or issues. In another recent review, a customer whose old water heater stopped working on the afternoon of the Fourth of July said Douglas Sena answered the call, his team arrived exactly when promised, determined that the water heater needed to be replaced and completed the installation the very same day. In a 2026 review, a customer said Douglas sent his crew the next day to assess a flooring issue, and a 2-person team spent around 3 hours fixing a portion of the floor, vacuumed and left the place clean. In a 2025 review, a customer said Douglas and his colleague power-washed siding that was covered heavily in mold and mildew on one side of the house, and it now looks as good as new. In another 2025 review, a customer said Douglas handled painting and carpet replacement, provided clear and fair quotes upfront and offered guidance on the paint selection. A 2025 reviewer said Douglas showed up the same day after a home invasion, made a temporary fix that day and a permanent fix the next day. In a 2024 review, a customer said Douglas and his crew painted the exterior of their house, where solar panels made a high spot above the garage very tight to work in; they removed rotten wood, installed new PVC and applied two coats of paint. In a 2024 review, a customer said Douglas Sena and his team remodeled two bathrooms and handled the painting throughout the bathrooms and foyer. A 2024 reviewer said Doug painted their living room and staircase, and when asked to do a closet install, he and his colleagues handcrafted a custom built-in. In another 2024 review, a customer said the team started as early as 7:00 am and worked twelve straight hours on the interior painting of their entire house during a move. A 2024 reviewer said Douglas and crew stained their front and back decks.
When my old water heater stopped working on the afternoon of the Fourth of July, I was in a panic. With no hot water for my children or me, I called several companies, but they were either closed or wanted to charge an excessive emergency fee. Thankfully, Douglas Sena answered my call. He assured me that someone would be at my home within the hour to assess the problem. His team arrived exactly when promised, determined that the water heater needed to be replaced, and completed the installation the very same day. I had hot water restored without paying an outrageous holiday price. I am incredibly grateful that Douglas took my call on a holiday and that his team responded so quickly and professionally. Their honesty, prompt service, and quality workmanship were outstanding. I highly recommend Douglas Sena and his company to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy plumbing services.
I'm very professional and did a great job
Douglas was fantastic to work with. His crew is quite competent and independent. The painting was finished on time (ahead of schedule if you count the fact that he sets aside time for any issues with the painting). There were no problems or issues. I will definitely call him first for any future projects. I clicked not sure on price as I did not get competitive quotes, but feel his team was worth it.
I had a very good experience with Douglas and his team. Douglas was quick to respond and sent his crew in the next day to assess the issue I had with our flooring. The qoute for the work was reasonable and clearly outlined the scope and what was expected of us. A 2-person team spent around 3 hours and fixed a portion of our floor, they also vaccumed, and left the place clean. Highly recommend using thier services!
Crew were very efficient and detailed across all facets. Very happy with the painting project and would recommend hiring Special Care Painting
