“Again the work was outstanding and my place was was left spotless.”
“The Poulos team arrived promptly daily and left a tidied-up jobsite overnight.”
The Poulos team arrived promptly daily and left a tidied-up jobsite overnight. They were pleasant to have in our home as they were conscientious about safety and cleanliness. Their employees are responsive, respectful and kind people, (thank you Albert, Daniel and Jose) We had maybe 60% of our house to repaint; tape that lifted on the 16-foot ceilings and skylight wells, as well as the wall over the staircase. I am enjoying my beautiful house again as I did when it was brand new. Some construction was required for this job, a new wall, door, trim and casings were needed. The result is a sturdy and insulated framework for the new wall, masterful drywall work, beautifully finished, while the wooden items were stained and varnished to match our existing wood perfectly. They were competitively priced with the scope of work clearly written in to the contract. They are fully insured and warranty their work. Our project manager, Jay Vargas, actually did manage the project! How refreshing is that?! Nowadays you expect to bang your head on a wall to get what you want. No head banging was required! I highly recommend!

After we decided to change our kitchen cabinets color, I contacted few companies and got their quotes for the job. Marc Poulos price was fair and their workmanship was great. Although they had some issues to find new hinges for the cabinet doors, but finally after some delay they completed the work and now we have a kitchen with the new and much better look.

“Great experience with Poulos Painting.”
Great experience with Poulos Painting. I needed to refresh my kitchen cabinets. Poulos Painting send me designer first to discuss color options. Liza was pleasure to work with, very professional, gave me great ideas and promptly ordered color samples Once color was picked Steven started the actual work - removing cabinets fronts, cleaning, repairing, degreasing. Steven made sure the rest of the house remained protected and clean. This was important because my family of 7 lived in the house ( we did not move out for the duration of the renovation). At the end of each work day my he vacuumed and removed all his tools. PPainting managed to keep promised schedule. Final work was fantastic - I LOVE my new kitchen

“Fair pricing, arrive timely and we’re very neat.”
Fair pricing, arrive timely and we’re very neat. And walk-through they fixed any of the errs quickly and finally my most important and favorite thing was they brought us a paint can full of cookies. A nice departure from a great company.

“My first painting experience was great!”
My first painting experience was great!! In April 2021 we had our FR, kitchen (including the cabinets), laundry room painted and deck stained. Everything ran smoothly from getting an estimate, to choosing colors, to having the work done---we couldn't have been happier. For that very reason, I chose to use Poulos Painting again. My next project was in early October. Mike (sales) walked through my townhouse and after asking a few questions and taking some measurements, was able to give me a great estimate and secure my business. About 2 weeks later Carl, the Project Mgr confirmed the dates for the painting job and kept me updated on the progress. Again the work was outstanding and my place was was left spotless. Way to go Poulos Painting!! (pix are from 2021 work)
