The Goodbrush

I found John on Facebook. He came and took a look and refreshed my deck with a thorough cleaning, sanding and then a new coat of stain. Beyond happy with the professionalism and workmanship that he provided.

I just wish i could give him more than 5 stars.

Will definitely hire him again and tell all my friends about him.

Our new-ish cedar porch was looking grey and dirty. We were hoping to get the original colour back in the wood and have it protected. We were shocked to see our porch look better than it did when it was new. John did a thorough deep clean, sanding and sealed it with a top quality seal. The whole process brought out the best qualities of the wood and added a richness we weren’t expecting. We could be happier with the top-notch job John did with his team. We will definitely hire his company again!

Worked many times with John. Great guy, super reliable, great attention to detail, always an excellent finished product. Very affordable, cannot recommend highly enough - he has done multiple different jobs for me, and is always the first Handyman I call

John was reliable, hard working, and most of all: honest. He gave our 12 year-old deck a refresh and now it looks great. He is on-time and delivers the service within his estimate. Because of a shortage of stain, John had to come back and although he had other jobs to do he returned at a reasonable time to finish our job. John is friendly when we communicate with him and he always replies in a timely manner. We would recommend John to anyone looking to paint: indoor or outdoor.

John is an excellent home improvement professional who completed multiple projects at my home during the summer.
He went that extra mile to include little things at no extra cost such as installing letter box and new house sign.
I could not be happier with his work, timeliness and interprofessional approach. I will contact him in future for additional projects with no hesitation.

I had some work done on my condo including new floors, doors baseboards and so on. The place was starting to look better, but I needed the final touches to complete the process. John sat with me to explain the different options available for the various rooms and what would make the trim look really elegant.

I still can't believe how nice it all turned out. The trim and baseboards look so luxurious. The doors glimmer, they're so smooth as he actually sanded them, which gave them the glimmer. Everything just feels… more vibrant. Newer. Cleaner.

In fact, one of things that made me very happy was that the condo WAS CLEANER. The job took a few days, but when I came home after a day of work, I didn't come home to a mess, and this is really important given how everyone hates dust. Thank You John!

They are not the cheapest painters available, for sure. But then again, you get what you pay for and with Empyrean, you know what you'll get up front. Definitely will use them again.

I hired empyrean to paint my basement along with patching a few holes and imperfections.
They were on time every day , worked on what they could complete for the day and until the job was complete.
Good work and pays attention to details
The place looks great

john was very professional , he also did some work that wasn't part of the agreement and I was very pleased with the outcome,he went beyond what my expectations were definitely a great company to use and he even entertained my dog for abit lol I would recommend him for any work thanks John

Once the Christmas rush was over, we decided to freshen up some of the rooms in our house, including the kitchen and spare bedroom.

John of Empyrean painting was recommended by a friend as someone who was fair and responsive. He provided a more than reasonable quote., . He explained the challenges our older home might pose and some options to address them. With that, we made a decision to go ahead with painting the spare bedroom and he got started the next day.

Watching John work, we could see that he has a perfectionist to the core -- washing down the walls, priming, removing bits of old wallpaper. He even applied new caulking around the window, making it look pristine, instead of just painting over the old caulking. The difference was immediately apparent.

John was also extremely pleasant and accommodating to our schedule and worked well even with our four legged friend checking in on occasion.

We'll be getting him back to do the kitchen and cupboards as soon as we've settled on the colours.

And oh, by the way, as a bonus he even moved some old furniture out of the room that we no longer needed. A real help for us as we could not have moved the furniture on our own.

Thanks again John, we'll see you on the next project!
