Strokes of Genius Painting

I was so pleased with the results of the last time I hired Strokes of Genius that I knew I'd ask them back once our new basement Reno was at an advanced stage. We could have done Daniel's team a favour by having the new carpet installed after they'd painted, but things don't always go in the ideal order. It didn't matter in the end because the job was done beautifully in just 2 days. Normally I don't mind doing a bit of painting myself, but Strokes of Genius is so good, so efficient, and their prices so reasonable that I may not take up a brush again! Thanks guys!

Price included taxes, paint and many smaller items (eg. trims, doors, external doors, bit of ceiling, etc).
Daniel was awesome.
Personable, patient, prompt in his email responses and very accommodating when it came to quoting aspects of the job individually and adapting to changes in the scope.
The job was well done and was done quickly, neatly without too much need for micromanagement of the painters. I believe it took 3 or 4 days total and there were 3 workers there each day.
Genuinely believe the $3000 of paint increased our home value considerably when it came to sale.

Have recommended this company to anyone who asks, and there have been many ! Easy to deal with, fair minded, on time, clean work, high quality, accurate estimates, and good communications ...they have it all. Daniel and Matt and all the crew were total pros. Best contractor I have ever hired and will be my first call next time for sure.

This is the 2nd time we have used Daniel and his team and we cannot say enough good things about them. Professional and the results are amazing. We will be almost 11 months in this new house and everyone compliments on the job and we always recommend they speak to Daniel for all their needs - big or small.

Daniel and his team of painters are just incredible! I called him a week before we moved into our new home and he somehow managed to get the job started on time. His quote was truthful and there were no "surprises" at all, and the painters were clean, respectful, on time and always swept / vacuumed after. We accidentally scratched a wall moving our stuff around, and they fixed (putty and paint) it for free. The color consultant was also a great help. The painters were all very professional and did a superb job with meticulous attention to detail, especially Brian, who did the majority of the job. Thanks guys! We'll be calling you when we want to paint again.

Daniel and his team came through and did a very good job. I was very worried after day two of the project. Daniel reassured me that this was par for the course and that everything would be completed to my satisfaction. He even sent an additional painter to make sure timelines would be met.

I hired a painter on the recommendation of another contractor. After 6 days and a few mishaps (falling off the ladder and spilling paint all over my uncovered possessions for one) I realized that contrary to the first eta of 'about 2 weeks' the painter was settling in for the long haul alla Murphy Brown. I did a quick calculation of how many walls were partially finished vs how many were still to go, and realized a month was probably being a conservative eta for completion.

After a search on Homestars I called Daniel at Strokes of Genius. He came right over, looked at the job, put a quote on the table with an all-in number and a guaranteed end date and I signed on it right on the spot. Dan cleared a place in their schedule for the next week. He even sent Sabrina, a colour consultant over to help me make my final choices. She was really great help. She sent all the info to SOG and they showed up on time, on the day, with their materials, ready to go to work. Steve and the guys worked like the pro's they are and finished the job one day before schedule.

My husband and I are artists with a combined 60+ years experience in our business. We both have sharply trained eyes for judging a bad line or teeny inconsistency in colour. I can only say Steve has one of the steadiest hands I have seen for cutting a colour and all the crew worked to the highest standards.

I am not someone who tollerates people in my house while I am working either but I was impressed at how professional and personable the crew was - I was shocked to find I didn't mind them being there at all. Steve was in charge and lovely to deal with - he patiently listened to all my comments, answered questions and kept me well informed. Dan was in the background making sure everything went well and on time - even after a couple of colour changes they still came in a day early! I knew I could call him with any little detail and he would address it seriously.

I would recommend this company for any job big or small. They know their stuff and they get it done on time. A rare experience these days! So refreshing! I will always call on SOG when I need a paint job done!

Steve and Rob arrived at 8:15, left at 4:30 and did a fantastic job, best painters we have ever encountered. Attended to all the details, patched, repaired and painted everything, caulked etc. Neat, left our place as clean as they found it..super job.

We met Daniel at the Fall Home Show and arranged to have some painting done on our new home this spring. He showed up as scheduled for the initial estimate and was very professional and we felt the estimate was fair for the work we wished to have done. His crew of Steve, Brian and Matt showed up on time and were all very personable and also careful with our home over the three days of painting. Their painting skills were quickly evident and they worked efficiently to get the work completed. We were very pleased at how well they managed to paint a 16 ft tall room with as much attention to detail as in the other rooms. They all worked together very well and also offered painting and carpentry tips that will be useful in the future. We were so pleased with the work that we intend to have them back in the future to do another project and would highly recommend Strokes of Genius. Customer service is clearly a priority for both Daniel and his crew and their pride and skill in their work is very evident.
