A Penacook customer needed interior painting finished before the furniture arrived. In their August 2026 review, they said David delivered a thorough estimate the next day, adjusted the scope with them and had the crew finish on time and on budget. The customer also described the crew addressing a ceiling patch during the work. The Persnickety Painters is a Manchester painting company led by David Miller, whom its website identifies as owner and lead project manager. The company says David returned to professional painting in 2011 and the business took the Persnickety Painters name in 2022. It describes interior, exterior, cabinet, deck and porch painting and refinishing across Manchester and Southern New Hampshire, and states that it is EPA Lead Paint Certified. Whole-house interiors and preparation work feature in recent customer accounts. An August reviewer praised painting of walls, trim and ceilings throughout a new house, along with software that showed each room’s cost and responsiveness before, during and after the job. In July, another customer described having textured ceilings scraped, sanded, skim coated and painted before moving in, without paint getting on the walls or floor. A June reviewer praised crisp lines between colors and a crew that kept the space clean and tidy. Cabinet work is also described directly. An April customer said Karen painted kitchen cabinets and an island, while David and the crew painted the doors at their shop. A June deck customer praised the painters’ efficiency and said the yard was clean and everything was put back in order before they left. One July customer said David and Deni completed interior and exterior painting in a single day. Follow-up was a problem for one prospective customer. In a July 2026 one-star review, they said someone visited and took photos but never returned with the promised price and schedule.

We recently moved to Penacook. We had only a short time before our furniture arrived, and our new house needed lots of interior painting. We contacted David. He met us at the house, looked over our rooms, listened to our thoughts on colors and styles of paints, and promised us that we would get an estimate. The next day, we got a thorough estimate, reviewed the scope, tweaked it a little, and placed our order. He promised us that they would be done before the furniture arrived. Right on schedule, the crew arrived, and got right to work. Everyone on the crew was professional, careful, considerate, and helpful. They even were able to solve little problems that always crop up, like the patch of one ceiling that needed some TLC. They did a great job, on budget, on time, and best of all, with a high quality of craftsmanship. On a scale of one to five, I would rank them a ten!
Huge thank you to David and his team for a job well done painting the whole interior of our new house! David was thorough in our initial walk through and so pleasant to work with. He was responsive before, during, and even after the job was done. Pricing was laid out very easily and we loved being able to see the cost of each room with the software David provided. The interior walls, trim, and ceilings are transformed and everything looks absolutely perfect! Can’t thank you enough for all your hard work on our house. Would HIGHLY recommend The Persnickety Painters and they will be our only call for any future painting needs!
Great guy came right out took photos said he would get back with a price and schedule! Nothing? I think he's very busy with realtors
I needed some interior and exterior painting done quickly. It was done in a single day. David and Deni knocked it out quickly and it looks great. I will definitely use them next time I have a a painting job.
Had Persnickity Painters come and remove our textured ceilings when we closed on a new house. It was urgent because it’s a messy process and we wanted it done before we moved in. Their team killed it! They scraped and sanded the texture off, skim coated the entire house and painted 2 coats without getting a drop of paint on the walls or floor. They were easy to talk to and made the process comfortable. Photos show the work. Last photo is the original “stomp” texture.
