Townhome Project

I purchased a townhouse in Garrison Green in October of 2013 that needed painting throughout. The job was complex in that there was quite a bit of patching and repair work from the previous owners children. After interviewing a number of painting services one clearly stood out – Value Pro painting. Deb asked excellent questions and assessed my needs quickly. Her level of knowledge was clearly above every other candidates and I loved that she was the one doing the actual work. Once she started the job it was clear that she has a passion for painting. She arrived on time, was courteous, always kept me in the loop, and was a pleasure to work with. She was flexible and able to work around the schedules of the electricians when necessary, and always had excellent suggestions for how to streamline the process. She was a delight to work with, and the final product was beautiful. A friend of mine who has retired from painting saw the house before and after and said that Deb’s work was absolutely top notch. I have already brought her back for some painting of the front of the house and will work with her for years to come on my investment properties. Deb gets my highest recommendation.

Con preparation for sale

I was getting my condo ready for sale and had to get a some handyman repairs and painting done. I made the mistake of allowing the handyman service to do everything.  After painting only the bathroom door, it was obvious he was NOT a painter! Not only was he super slow, but there were roller marks and fuzz on on what he had done that was worse that the condition of the door before! I stopped the painting and then
began the search for a painter. Using Homestars and Google I came across a few names and Value pro was at the top of the list because I had an idea from her website what the cost was going to be. As it is spring I was lucky enough that the companies I emailed could come out for a quote. I had three quotes, one that was ridiculously expensive from a one day service, another that tried to
sell me of work I didn't feel I needed. (since I am selling), and the quote from Deb. From attitude alone I wanted to hire her on the spot because she was honest on what I wanted to accomplish in order to sell. She suggested I leave the closets and ceilings and just go ahead with a single coat on all walls and doors that needed it and not change the colour. For the type of condo I had she said that a colour change really was not going to increase the chances of selling or raise the amount the condo would fetch in the market. The colour was the original builders beige which I hated, but she said that it was close to one of the most popular trend colours now.  I also had black fuzz around my ceiling fan and since the ceilings were knock down texture she said it could be just
swept off with a clean broom, which it did! (The other quote I got said I had to spend $1000 to paint the whole ceiling! She then gave me a rough estimate on the spot and emailed the final quote in a few hours. The only issue I faced was that it was going to be at least a week before she could get to it (which wasn't what I was hoping for) but if the job would have been bigger I was looking at almost a month! 
Now that the job is finished I am very happy with what we decided on. She did the coat of paint in the master bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom and did a coat of paint on all of the baseboards and trim where it was needed and fixed the bathroom door! I am super happy with it as the condo looks almost new! Plus it only took her one day to actually do the job!
I would like to have our new house painted next year
when Deb has the time. She is very fast and good at what she does and she has such a super attitude as
well!

Thank you very much Kent! I am glad I could get it done for you as I know how difficult it can sometimes be with other trades. I wish you a speedy sale and I hope you enjoy living in Walden. It's a fantastic new community which is great for kids.

Interior painting

Deb did an amazing job for us! I contacted her company on a Friday morning after the painter that I had scheduled for that coming Monday bailed on me. After discussing what we needed with Deb, which was our main floor painted (walls and patching, etc.), and sending Deb a few pictures, she emailed me back to confirm her quote and confirmed that she could start work on the following weekend which were originally her next days off. Deb checked in with me after the first day to see if we had any concerns, which I appreciated. As quoted, she finished painting in just 2 days (when other painters had estimated the job would take 3-4 days!). Our home was left clean and in good shape. After she was sure we were happy with the job, Deb was nice enough to meet me near my office to return the keys and collect payment. Overall, we were very happy with the job and the service we received. I have already recommended Deb to my real estate agent friend for her to use with other clients.

Painting interior

I have had Deb paint several of my homes and rentals over the years and she had always been professional and did excellent work. We had a excellent working relationship. Until the last time. She started the work in my house then had to leave for another job and never came back!! We had 2 appointment times for her to come back but she never showed. Despite several phone calls and emails I have not heard from her. I have no idea what happened!! Therefore I would not recommend her to anyone else.

I am saddened Val that you feel you need to have a negative impact on my business after the years of highly discounted services I provided for you, but we did not have a contract for additional work and you certainly have not paid for it as you have claimed in this review. Any open quotes I had with you or your company have been completed. I informed you on February 20th to hire another painter because of an injury, however you stated you did not want anyone else. I understand that it is impossible to find someone who can offer you the discounts you received for my services but we were no longer a fit. I simply could not continue to offer you the discounted prices you demanded on your executive properties at this time. Thank you.

Interior painting

Deb at Value Pro is a true professional, and an expert painter. I found Deb to be the most skilled, most professional and the easiest to work with, of any painter that I have ever hired. The job Deb did for me was on time on, on budget, perfect quality and without any problems whatsoever. I highly recommend Value Pro painters. For all my future jobs Value Pro is the only painter I will use.

Interior painting

This is the 4th time we've had Deb in to paint over the years and once again we were very impressed with the work she did. I'm not sure she wants me advertising this but every surface had residue or damage due to wallpaper we had removed. She must have had to do a lot of skim-coating to get things looking smooth again - and smooth it looks! Amazing! Still the best painter in the business!

Main floor house project

I was referred to Value Pro by a co-worker as he was impressed by the straightforward approach and quality service that was provided by Deb. We needed to get our main floor of our home painted to contemporary colours. (Originally pink!). Deb gave us good advice on painting and colours and did a meticulous job. We were not disappointed! Highest recommendations!

Paint job - whole house

Our new home needed a paint job from top to bottom. After following up on referrals from friends then landing on Deb's company and the amazing reviews on Homestars we decided to go with Deb. She gave us great advice and completed the job on schedule in time for our move. Our new home is transformed into a bright and welcoming place. Deb's excellent work was affordable as well.
