A recent customer hired Tim to repair and paint the ceiling of their living and kitchen space and said they appreciated his fair pricing. A recent reviewer said Tim did a few rooms in their house on time and at a reasonable price. A 2026 customer said Tim painted the walls and trim of their condo and called his helper Ladd very professional. A 2025 customer said Tim had painted every room in the house over the past year and described him as precise with trim work. A 2025 reviewer said Tim did the interior of their home and the cabinets and baseboards at a rental unit, and liked that he communicated his schedule. A 2025 customer described Tim's advice on color selections, materials and methods for the work he and his crew did on a turn-of-the-century seaside home. A 2023 customer said Tim repaired cracks and old tape corners on their ceilings. A 2022 customer said Tim painted the exterior and many interior rooms and ceilings of the house, repaired several areas of drywall before painting, gave a detailed estimate for cost and timing and stuck to it, and cleaned up the work areas at the end of each day. A 2022 customer getting a house ready to sell said Tim painted the interior, including extensive crown moulding and railings, and the exterior. A 2022 reviewer in Kittery, Maine wrote that Tim had painted all the walls and woodwork in their home and the kitchen cabinets.
