My house, porch deck and bulkhead needed painting. I received 6 quotes for the job. Universal was the 3rd lowest or about in the middle. I choose them because they had an excellent proposal that was very through and complete. Also when talking with Andre he gave me confidence that his crew could do a professional job. Because they could not start for almost one month from the date I accepted their proposal, they very very flexible about the deposit. Once they began the job they were very professional. Their prep was painstaking because they put so much into it. They certainly didn't skimp with the preparation. Once they started painting their crew did a meticulous job working very hard. My house, porch and bulkhead look fantastic. Andre was often here to check on the progress of the job and answer any concerns or comments that I had. I'm extremely happy that I chose Universal Painting and Andre da Sliva. I don't know how any of the others who quoted the job could have done a more professional job.
I highly recommend them!!
I needed the outdoor trim of my house painted so I went through Home Advisor to see what would come out of that. Andre responded to my need and provided me with a very professional quote. I selected his company to do the work and I am extremely glad I did. These guys went above and beyond to deliver excellent work. I was a bit nervous as I was coming up against the Holidays and needed to get this work completed quickly. His team showed up very early AM daily and worked until sunset. This was a challenging job to ensure the trim next to newly installed shingles was meticulously painted. They met the challenge!! All other trim work was equally well done!! My wife and I are super impressed and would recommend them in a heartbeat. If you need painting done you will not be disappointed.
They were meticulous about their workmanship in both painting & carpentry. They were also punctual, neat and friendly..They even helped investigate a problem that the cupola on my roof had with leakage. They were a pleasure to work with. In fact, I plan to hire them soon for yet another project painting and repairing my storage shed.
They are honest, hard working and deliver high quality work. They leave the site very neat each evening they leave for the day. If they find something extra that needs to be done, they will bring it your attention and propose what should be done and the cost. No surprises.
