10/10

Our experience with The English Painter was 100% positive. We knew right away that we had chosen the perfect company for us, so we hired them without hesitation or shopping around. We tend to be 'hard-to-please' with very high expectations. No previous contractors have ever left us as satisfied as The English Painter has. Gareth, Liam and Carol gave 110% from start to finish. Without question they totally deserve all the accolades they get. Carol immediately impressed us by replying the same day of our reach, despite the fact that they were tightly booked with dozens of jobs on the horizon. Shortly after sending a few site photos, we received a very fair and reasonable quotation, with no change following an on-site visit by Gareth later that week. Scheduling was so smooth, they fit us in quickly and were extremely flexible when we had to split the project into two visits due to another contractor's delay. They finished exactly when they said they would, plus they were extremely patient with us throughout both jobs. We never once felt that they compromised any of the critical prep work or rushed our projects. Their communications skills are amazing and they are totally attuned to their clients needs. Many rooms in our East York bungalow were sorely in need of this re-do. The bedrooms, den and hallways had not been dealt with for over 25 years. This company rescued us, it was truly like we won the lottery! The plaster badly needed repair, some of the corners were molding, there were huge cracks in the ceiling and all areas were in rough shape. None of the deterioration was a problem for these fellows. They gave as much attention to detail and pride in their craft to our closets, as with the main walls. Daily cleanup was spotless, they always left behind an immaculate workspace and great care was taken with protecting all our antiques and the hardwood. Consistently they went the extra mile, taking down light fixtures, ceiling fans and removing all accessories like doorknobs, etc. Gareth took extra time to offer us great advice and inspiration for additional tasks we needed to do. He even volunteered to come back and do touch up if needed whenever our delayed side door arrives. Gareth and his son Liam provided us with good old-fashioned customer service, superior quality and 1st class workmanship. We hope to hire them again for our family room renovation. They are truly top-notch professionals and you could not be disappointed if you hire The English Painter. A solid family business that operates at the highest level who will always maximize your dollars spent. We can not thank them enough for the super results.
