Painting testimonials from the last 7 years of our service in the Portland, metro area

"These guys are fantastic...I just need more walls to be able to work with them again!! " Beth Gordon

Kurt came to the house soon after I called to request an estimate.  It looked at the project and told me exactly what the process would be, including all the preparation work and clean up as well as patching nail holes, etc. He gave me a verbal estimate and then emailed a written one within hours.   His crew was able to come within 2 weeks and the work was completed in two days.  When they left after the first day everything was cleaned up and put away as much as possible and when the work was completed, they left the area spotless.  Kurt was very pleasant and professional and the painting crew was the same.  It was a total pleasure to do business with them and they did a beautiful job.  I would hire them again in a minute!

The whole experience was great. From the first phone call through the clean up it was clear that this is a company that is dedicated to customer service and quality. The job was scheduled within the week and completed right on time as promised. The quality was superb and I am extremely pleased with the final outcome. The entryway looks awesome!   -- Elizabeth Coker

Hi, Guys!

 

Just a quick note to thank you for the terrific job in our daughter’s room!  The paint looks great and she is really pleased with the outcome!  We really appreciate how quickly you were able to fit us in and work with our vacation schedule.  We will definitely look forward to working with you in the future!

 Just wanted to comment on a great job done by a superior crew.  I have never experienced a house painting job like this one.  Efficiency is the name of this company's game, impeccably clean, absolutely no paint spills or drops, plus a near noiseless paint compressor. Everything was on time, on budget and with a well-timed sunshiny, blue sky.  Wow!   Sincerely, Suzanne Royse

Paul and Kurt,
Susan is very pleased.  Thanks for making her day brighter.
You two are sooooooo good. If you need a recommendation, let me know. Bill Smith

Moving 3000 miles is never easy and having to manage long distance before the move can be overwhelming. Having Paul and Kurt made it amazingly pleasant! They not only met my expectations but went way beyond. They emailed or called and kept me updated with pics online. Furniture arrived early and they accommodated me with the mess and all. They are great! They are doing my exterior in the spring and I'm so looking forward to actually meeting all of them in person!!! A plus.  Sue Pratt

 

We needed to have upstairs bathroom painted, but then when reviewing some other dissatisfactions with a previous painter's work, Kurt provided excellent advice and a plan for corrective action that was well within our budget. The upstairs bathroom was in dire need of repainting and required 3 coats to cover and correct the previous poor quality paint job. We had been dissatisfied with our previous choice of color and earlier paint job in the upstairs loft. Kurt was very clear about what needed to be done to correct the situation. The stairwell leading to the loft and the lower hallway were colors that we wanted to change, and he suggested options for that. Once agreed upon, he and his partner arrived and were meticulous about ensuring all furniture and carpeting were well protected prior to beginning work. They even covered the flooring and stairs leading into their work area to protect those areas. While the work was being done, we discussed a problem with nicks on the banister in the stairwell. They repainted that for us so it looks like new. All the work was done with high-quality paint and agreed-upon colors. They cleaned up after the painting was done and removed all of the masked areas. The final result is wonderful and we are extremely pleased with the quality of their workmanship and attention to very minute details.

 In the past, I have always been reluctant to have someone else do interior painting because no-one has been able to meet my nit-picky, standards.
Fresh Coat exceeded my standard and we are extremely pleased with their work, the cost, and the added comfort to our home.

Hi Kurt,
We really love the finished work-a fantastic job!
Hope you have a good weekend as well. Greg Lemma

Venetian plaster walls in the entry

Kurt was prompt in returning my initial call and was able to come do a free estimate within a couple days. The price he quoted was competitive with others that we received. He was flexible with his schedule to accommodate our tight timeline. Throughout the entire process he was very available by both phone and email. His team covered all of our flooring and furniture and left no trace that they were ever here...except the amazing paint job! Kicking myself for not having him do the entire house...will use this company again for sure. Kendall Myers

I really wanted to thank you for the beautiful job you did painting the outside of my house. I really am happy with the way it looks and the attention to detail. It looks better than I ever thought it could! Thank you also for cleaning the window frames and pointing out to me that they did not need painting. It was really helpful and always nice to save some money. I know you did not have to do this and I am really impressed with the integrity of your work and customer service. I have referred you to a couple of my friends and I look forward to having you paint the inside of my home when I need that. All the best,  Linda W.

 Hi Paul,

Before the year's over I'd like to send this note to you.

My mother is absolutely thrilled with the painting you did last month for her. The entry hall, living room, hall and kitchen are beautiful, and the kitchen cabinets couldn't be more perfect. My family and I were impressed with your professionalism, precise prep work, and the meticulous paint job...and we still can hardly believe the zippered little room you set up in the garage....how cool was that?

Thank you again for fantastic work and the great care you took of my mother's home. Referrals will go your way!

Merry Christmas and wishes for a busy, successful and Happy New Year!

Franki Baccellieri

Paul & Kurt,

 

     I wanted to say thanks for the fantastic job your team did on the inside and outside of my house. I was so happy with the exterior job you did last year that I wanted you to do the interior. The transition lines are so crisp and clean it is as close to perfect as you can get! Your team did an incredible job of covering and protecting all of my household items! I know that I am a picky customer in search of perfection and you guys met it! You will be the only company I call for my next painting needs! I would be happy to give a reference if you ever need one!

 

Thanks again!

We love the house paint!!!!  Thank you !!!  Courtney Fitzloff

I cannot say enough about the wonderful job you did painting my whole downstairs, ceilings and walls!! I just love the color and how it opens everything up. The help you gave with the color suggestions were very helpful. I am so happy the way the wood turned out after sanding and staining it. You would never know there had been a water leak. Your painting crew is fantastic. I am a real stickler when it come to punctuality and everyday Chris and the two other guys were here right on time. They are terrific guys to work with and go above and beyond to do outstanding work. They even threw in painting my fireplace so that the total look would be complete. They put all the furniture back in the right place and cleaned up everything so you wouldn't even know they had been there. Kudos for all you you! Your are fantastic!

Thank you all,
Linda

I wanted to thank your crew you had paint the rooms that were damaged because of some water damage we had. The were the most professional and friendly people I have come across in a very long time. They even offered to help move some of my furniture with me in case they were not able to finish in time, which they did. You don’t see that level of courtesy or helpfulness in the service field much anymore. I cannot say enough about the great job they did. I will recommend your company to anyone that needs painting. Thank you again, Sal F.

It’s so nice to work with a company that gives you ideas, does the work on time, is very professional, and exceeds your expectations. Their work was superior and when they left everything was all put back together  Alan and Carmella D.

Thank you again.

All worked out very well Paul, You and your crew did a great job. I think that it came out super. Jerry Colonna
 

A Fresh Coat Painting is simply the BEST! They transformed our 1930’s home into a sparkling beauty. The crew works so well together and their attention to detail is amazing. We are super satisfied with their impeccable quality, timely communication and friendly service. If you want long-lasting results from easy-to-work-with painters, this is the team you can rely on!  - Alan and Kristl Plinz

I also wanted to take a minute to let you know what a great job you and your staff did on our house. Everything looks fantastic and we really appreciate the extra things that you did for us that weren’t even part of the original job. All of our neighbors have commented on how great the place looks and, most off all, how impressed they all are (as am I) that the entire job was done by hand, with a brush, and not with a sprayer filled with cheap paint. Manny was such a hard worker and he put so much effort into every little detail; it really shows in the final product. Not only do I know who to call for any future paint jobs, but everyone else I know will be sure to have your information as well. Thanks again for everything!      Ken and Sandra Pipher

Kurt, Paul and company repainted our 1908 house after the removal of aluminum siding from the 1970s. The job included pulling staples, removing some siding, and filling countless holes.

This company exemplifies excellent customer service.

Kurt was always available, remembered to do what we asked, and thoroughly addressed all of our needs. They even touched areas of the house that were not within the original bid. The caulking was neat, and they back-brushed in the paint while still leaving air gaps for the siding to breathe. I got more than my money's worth.

Working with A Fresh Coat Painting was a fantastic experience. During the bid process, they were extremely helpful and even helped us finalize our color choices. Our job was quite extensive — we wanted to use over ten colors total for three bedrooms, a den, a living room, a dining room/kitchen, and a half bath. Every room was painted in a two-tone scheme. It was a huge job that took just over a week, but they were extremely efficient and made sure our home was livable during the job. They paid extreme attention to detail during the prep and painting portions of the job. The job was finished on time, on budget, and our home was left cleaner than it was before the job. The interior of our townhome looks fantastic — better than we ever could have imagined. We would not hesitate to recommend A Fresh Coat Painting. Eric & Shanelle H. Kurt and Paul were both a pleasure to work with. They are attentive and responsive to customers' wants. They are ready to offer helpful suggestions if asked, but are always willing to do things your way. They show up on time every day, take extreme care not to damage or soil other surfaces, and always leave your home uncluttered and clean at the end of the day. What more can you ask? It's pretty easy to tell when someone likes his job and when he doesn't. Paul and Kurt both appear to really enjoy what they do, especially if you give them something challenging or a little out of the ordinary. In our case we asked for accent walls in two rooms, which involved a lot of intricate cut lines between the colors, and the Venetian plaster application in the salon. When the project was finished, it was clear that they both looked at their efforts with pride - and we are just as happy with the results. We would not hesitate to recommend A Fresh Coat to anyone for any sort of painting job.    MAGGIE LYNCH You and your company did a fantastic job on our house.  The painters were very courteous, helpful, and polite.  The house, each day when work ended, was cleaned up and left in great shape.  The work done was very professional and high quality.  Thank you!! Mark and Shanna Fortner Did a fantastic job... very helpful in all aspects. Jeff Slaughter The Muttley Crew They painted the entire interior of our roughly 2700 sq. ft. house (except closets), walls and ceilings only, but also touched up areas of the trim where the old wall color had bled onto it. The house has a lot of detailed trim work. In our living room they did a beautiful faux finish ragging-type technique, but the rest of the rooms were just regular paint. Two places needed drywall repair because of prior electrical work done in the walls and they took care of that, too. It went great! This was simply one of the best experiences I've had with a contractor. Paul came out to the house for an estimate, which he emailed to me within just a couple of days. I was immediately impressed that he was very personable and seemed easy to work with, and I had read so many glowing reports on Angie's List that although his bid did come in a little higher than some, we decided to hire him. There was time between then and when they were actually able to start, and during that time we worked with Paul on final decisions about the colors, and on the technique that would be used for the living room faux finish. He brought us samples of Venetian plaster, but although that was beautiful, it just didn't seem to go with our house. We had small sample cans of the colors we wanted in that room and with those he prepared a few sample boards in various ragging/sponging/etc., techniques, which he had even sprayed with texture so we could see how it would actually look on our textured walls. Between those and some further discussion about what we liked or disliked about certain looks (through which Paul was very patient with our decision making process!), he ended up painting exactly the finished look we were going for in our living room. The other two guys he had here painting, Jon and Chris, were courteous and showed attention to detail as well. They took down light fixtures, etc., and painted very careful lines, so that everything looks beautiful. There were two areas where we had drywall repair to be done (we'd had some wiring done previously) that we hadn't gotten around to, and they did a lovely job with that, too. I know that we paid a little more than we might have with some companies, but I really feel that the ease with which we worked together, the attention to detail, and the quality of our living room faux finish were worth paying for. I would use these guys without hesitation, and would recommend them to anyone. Deb Alexander A Fresh Coat kept in touch so that we knew when to expect work to begin, actually starting four days ahead of schedule. Painters worked around rainy weather expertly, focusing on covered areas when weather was disagreeable, and on exposed areas during fair days. They were thorough in prep work (sanding & priming) as well as final coat, and also discovered rotting wood at base of support posts (which was repaired before painting). The total result is that all newly-painted areas no longer appear as 15 year old material. Painters had great positive attitudes and seemed to enjoy their work. We could not be more pleased!!! June Young   Claremont Neighborhood Portland, Oregon I wanted to tell you again how much I am enjoying the mantle you painted for me. Today it was just stunning! I came home at about 1 pm and the sun was shining through the windows on to the natural wood floor and the reflected light off the floor on to the mantle made the mantle glow all on its own. First I was confused as to where the light was coming from, it was as if someone put a spotlight on just the mantle. Nothing else around it picked up the glow. Wow! I don’t know if that was part of your plan in the painting, but what an amazing effect. Of course, the mantle always looks great. In any light. You did a wonderful job. I am so glad I just turned you lose and let you do your thing, because it came out perfect. It was so great to be able to trust you and not have to supervise. I appreciate your quick response to my anxiety at the end to get it finished. I have enjoyed it all summer and looking forward to a cozy winter by the fireplace. Thanks again for the great “show” you put on. Candy U. Great service -- timely, attention to detail. Responded quickly to requested bid and had a competitive bid.  With the assistance of a colorist, color selections and variety flows well room-to-room in open space design. Helped us accessorize. Larry R. Paul provided a thorough and complete estimate. Paul and Kurt followed up a few weeks later and we decided to go with them. Prep work was fantastic. Kitchen and Family Room were completely sealed off from the rest of the house. Hard wood floors and carpet were completely covered. Previous owner did a horrible job painting the cabinets. Painted red. Brush strokes and drips were everywhere. Cabinets were sanded and prepped on site. Several spray coats and sanding sessions later, cabinets were beautiful. We chose and off white. Paul came back several times to touch up small areas and to align cabinet doors. Walls and ceilings turned out fantastic as well. Thorough clean-up. Give this contractor an opportunity to paint. You can't go wrong. Mark Havekost Our house was overdue for repainting - the existing paint was faded and peeling, down to bare wood in places.A Fresh Coat Painting was great - they extensively prep-ed and primed the areas that needed attention and did a beautiful job on the actual painting. They were great to work with as well - very nice guys and easy to communicate with. On top of this, they didn't exceed their quoted price, and finished up within their estimated time limit. And the work is fully guaranteed for the next five years.We were really impressed - thanks Kurt and Paul! Paul Notley We wanted to extend a very sincere Thank You for the beautiful paint job that you recently completed on our 1908 bungalow.  Our home has been beautifully transformed!  Your staff was courteous, efficient and friendly.  When we asked for help choosing an accent color - you gently led us on the right path, and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out.  We will highly recommend your services to anyone we know looking to paint their home. Sincerely, The Morgan's

From first email contact, to dealing with Paul on the estimate, and then working with Kurt through the scheduling and final finishing on the job I couldn't be happier. The dedication and high level of expectation they have met my own standards -- which I can't say for most of the other contractors we've used in the past! Responses were timely and quick, and the fact that the two people I talked with actually were at the job and WORKING on it was exceptional. They have great customer service.Kurt even worked by himself to correct the one accent wall in the family room that wasn't quite meeting the swatch he had shared with me. He really did go above what I expected from a contractor, and without complaint AND with a smile -- that really made me a life long customer for all future paint needs. Bonnie F. We needed the interior of our condo painted but were new to the area and didn't know any painters. The paint store recommended A Fresh Coat as a company doing quality work. And were they ever right!From color consultations to the faux finish on one wall, the work was superb. Not one splatter to clean up, nice guys who were a pleasure to have in our home and true craftsmanship. Thank you so much Kurt, Paul and your crew. We love our "new" home. Peggy Gulick I love the new colors.  Thanks for your fine painting skills! Misti L   Because I was new to Portland I had some difficulty knowing who to hire for the painting of my newly purchased downtown Portland condo. My good fortune was finding A Fresh Coat Painting and meeting Kurt Deppisch. I soon discovered that Kurt and Paul, the owners of this painting business are not only painters, they are artists. Kurt is willing to follow directions and he is eager to please but when he is given the option of coming up with creative ideas the results have been amazing. After the completion of painting the entire condo interior, with accent colors, Kurt has used a trowel to create a concrete faux stone finish over the balcony floors and he has trimmed both with decorative tile. It has been an affordable and attractive change and everyone who sees them, offers compliments and asks for his business card. This is a business that is dedicated to customer satisfaction. I am presently planning to redecorate another condo and we have already discussed new creative painting options. Janice Friedli Painted a laundry room that is being remodeled. The nature of the room required a lot of edging and care. They were outstanding. We added a little to the job, and they jumped right in with efficiency, were helpful with suggestions, and professional in the best sense of the word. Jim Puterbaugh   Kurt and Paul did the Venetian plastering of a long, cathedral-ceilinged wall running from our dining area through the living room. They were punctual, stuck to the budget they quoted us, and took great care with protecting the rugs and furniture. I liked the way they offered us alternative ways of approaching the job and explained the choices clearly while letting us make the final decisions. The results were beautiful, and I would recommend them to anyone  for this kind of wall treatment. Ditty Nicolaides & Ernie Jurick Portland, OR They did a wonderful job. Good communication from start to finish. Started on time. On the second day, we figured out that one of the rooms was darker than we would have liked (our fault, not theirs) and ask them to repaint the work they had already done to a different color. They were very courteous about the whole thing and finished everything to our liking. Benjamin Cho I am so happy with the job Fresh Coat did painting our house exterior last summer.  It went from peeling old gray paint, to a lovely sage green with white trim.  My husband says its like we've "raised the house from the dead".  With the high quality materials Kurt and Paul insisted on, and the care he and his team took every step of the way, we most likely won't have to paint it again for many, many years. I highly recommend these guys to anyone who has an old house that has some issues, or any house for that matter.  These guys have old fashioned business values:  attention to detail, insistence on quality and communicating with the customer daily.  They are truly a rarity.  Deborah Ohlsen Kurt and Paul:  Sherry and I want to thank you and your crew for a really outstanding paint job.  You impressed us from the start because you spotted areas that we were aware of that needed special attention and which others estimating our job never commented on.  True to our first impression, we found your crew to be meticulous, fast and hard working.  We were especially pleased to see the great care you took with out extensive landscape plantings and our many, many windows.  Please feel free to recommend us as a reference for your prospective customers.  We will give Fresh Coat Painting the highest recommendation! Bill and Sherry Prendergast  NW Skyline, Portland Kurt, Paul and their crew were great to work with from start to finish. They were thorough, stayed on time and on budget, and were always pleasant. We highly recommend them. They did a great job. Paul and Margie Fyfield

A Fresh Coat Painting transformed my house!  From the biding process through the final walk through, Kurt and the crew were responsive, professional, and performed high quality work.  I contracted with A Fresh Coat Painting to paint every wall in my house and they were on time and on budget.  Additionally,  their technique was flawless!  I was please to find ZERO defects with their work.  I have and will continue to recommend this company to my family and friends.

The job had two parts: (1) repainting an accent wall (8 x 20 ft) in the master bedroom, including portions extending into two closets, and (2) painting over a corner stain on a high (24 foot) living room ceiling with one paint and then applying a couple of coats of another color on the wall approx. 15 feet below to cover the resurfacing of the water-damaged area. After the new paint was applied in the bedroom, there were traces of the original wall color on the floor molding. This was due, as it turned out, to the sloppiness of the original painters who had not taped the molding carefully four years ago. Kurt sent one of his workers to redo the molding paint, even though it wasn't his responsibility and, strictly speaking, he didn't have to. I appreciate that he made it right and I am very pleased with the improved appearance of the room. Sabrina

My e-mail inquiring whether the company did small jobs like mine was promptly answered by a phone call from Kurt Deppisch, who came equally promptly to estimate the job. Then I really lucked out! Kurt asked whether they could come the day before Thanksgiving because they had time available for a job my size. The whole process from initial inquiry to completion was remarkably swift, another aspect of the job for which I am grateful. ANN SHANKLAND

Kurt and Paul were wonderful to work with. We were two days late in starting our project due to an extended close, and even so, they were extremely patient and accommodating. Kurt and Paul arrived early each working day - and were a pleasure to have around. They were so neat and tidy and cleaned up at the end of each day. Even when our 4 year old added his personal touch with an old broom and leftover paint, Kurt and Paul remedied the situation with a chuckle and a smile. We missed them when they finished the job! We plan on having them do our exterior as soon as possible. We HIGHLY recommend ''A Fresh Coat'' for all you painting needs.

Thanks, you guys. The building looks really really good ! The next time we need painting… I know who to call

A Fresh Coat was a wonderful company to work with.  I appreciated that the person estimating the job was also the one who did the work.   A Fresh Coat showed up when they said they would, did a quality job, and cleaned up the site each day.  They went above and beyond the job agreed to, doing tasks such as unsticking windows that had been painted shut for years, and cleaning up splatter from another contractor’s messy sheet rock job. They used the highest quality materials and took care to prepare the surfaces, thereby ensuring the job will last.  They are efficient too…the job doesn’t drag on past the scheduled date because they don’t interrupt your job once they start.  Kurt and Paul are communicative, professional, and pay attention to details.  I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

I received a prompt quote from these people, and agreed to proceed with the job. When the cleaning of the house was started, all plants were carefully covered and cleanup was complete. The job was completed as agreed, and to date looks excellent. I have had compliments from neighbors on the paint job.

Like most RE Investors, I had been putting off the paint job on our 4-plex until the last possible minute, and wanted to do it myself. 

Of course this never happened, and this fall we needed to have it appraised. With the coaching from Paul, he quickly showed me that by having it painted, I could increase the value of the property, and I said go for it!

I'm a picky guy, and I have worked with many contractors over the past 10 years of my Real Estate career, and these guys are by far the best quality, and customer service I have seen!

To boot, as promised, the paint job more than paid for itself with the added value, and protection, from a very rainy storming winter on the way!

I highly recommend them for all your painting needs!

I needed a medium sized bathroom vanity painted (sprayed) in place. The vanity had previously been painted with oil based paint and had discolored over the years. I wanted to switch over to latex paint which would be easier to maintain in the future. Making the switch from oil to latex needs a little extra work. I asked them to be careful with their spraying as I had just repainted the bathroom and had new granite countertops installed. Member Comments: "All-around fantastic" would be the best descriptor for the service and work I received from Kurt Deppisch. The other painters that I contacted really didn't want this small job (understandable), but Kurt approached it with as much professionalism as a larger job. His masking and painting was quick and thorough so as to minimize the inconvenience and mess for me. Kurt was even flexible enough to allow me to do extra trim work on the vanity halfway through his job (I had mentioned before he started that I would have loved to add some trim work had I had more time). He was very kind, easy-going (without being a slacker), and very helpful with all of my questions and concerns. I simply can't imagine an easier person to work with. I will have Kurt back in a heartbeat to do more painting for me in the future. I wish that more craftspeople took his approach to their work. Oh, and the painted vanity came out perfect. Thanks a ton, Kurt!   Marci Brown

Kurt sent his estimate for our project in the mail about one week after we initially met. We made some changes via e-mail. We decided to paint the ceilings and go with Devine paint versus a less expensive brand. His estimate to paint the ceiling was very reasonable and his overall price was very fair with the 10% discount to Angie's list members. There was a slight bit of confusion how they were going to increase their estimate with the Devine low VOC brand but in the end we were not charged extra. The project took one week and we thought it best to stay in a hotel because of our small children. The crew took care of all of the necessary prep work and caulked the proper areas. They used two coats of paint and we were very impressed with their workmanship. We have a curved archway that we used one color of paint on one side and another on the other. A fresh coat painting more than met our expectations. We had hired two other Angie's list recommended painting companies in the past and we are very glad to have tried this company and we plan on using them in the future! Kurt promptly came back after completion to fix the couple of minor issues we found including repairing a fallen blind.  HEIDI DOUGLAS

Prep and paint walls, ceilings, some closets, doors and trim in approx.1000 sq ft. of living area including living/dining/ master, foyer, bath and office. Prior to painting all big furniture and floors were covered. All the trim had to be extensively sanded to remove old brush and roller marks. All trim, including casement window frames and French doors, were masked and spray painted with several coats of semi gloss. Price included Divine paint on the ceilings and Benjamin-Moor on walls.

My wife and I and our two Bernese Mountain dogs moved downstairs for the 10 day process. The sanding was extensive but the painters vacuumed it up daily. Yes there was a fine coating of dust everywhere but that has been cleaned up now. The owners Kurt and Paul were here much of the time and Chris and another helper were the rest of the crew. The painters removed and successfully replaced all window, drape and door hardware to facilitate painting. The paint was "green" so odors from that were minimal. At the end the crew spent nearly two days finishing up, replacing all the furniture and cleaning everything. We have lived in the newly painted area for several days now and have not found any omissions or anything but impeccable workmanship.

The project completely met all of our expectations. All walls and ceiling surfaces received two coats of paint. All of the corners and intersections were hand-brushed. Nail pops were fixed. The project required a great deal of edge taping. Our hardwood floors were protected and furniture was covered in plastic sheeting. The project required 2 1/2 days of hard work, all executed cheerfully.

A little work we did for the Portland based Children's Cancer Association. What a great group of people.

Our entire home exterior was painted.

We were so pleased from start to finish with this company. Great responsiveness and great result.  Carly M

Paul showed up promptly as promised to do estimate. Very professional yet friendly approach. When the job was authorized the crews showed up when and where promised and caused the minimum possible disruption to our household. There was no "overspray" or "paint splash" on surfaces not involved in the work, including our newly-installed floor coverings. They also re-finished all of our kitchen cabinets. They did an excellent job on that, too. A Fresh Coat will certainly be our first choice for future painting projects, especially any further restoration of our cedar interior walls.

Hi Paul and Kurt, we got back last night and the house and deck look beautiful. Great job!!!! Very happy.  Have a great weekend. Jackie Fegette

I am so pleased with the work done by Kurt and Chris and his crew of four.  Neat and tidy, quietly efficient, appropriately knowledgable and skillful to a man, responsive and considerate of my concerns about the job.  Also friendly--many smiles which brighten any day.  Top quality craftsmanship and customer service are well worth the cost.

Our house, a Portland 4 square style, was built in 2007, but the exterior paint was already worn through in many places and mold was growing in the cracked wood railings.  Knowing the house was in bad shape last summer (2010), I contacted several painting contractors for bids.  By the time I selected A Fresh Coat Painting, it was too late in the summer to schedule the work.  I asked and Kurt agreed that we would be in contact in spring 2011 to schedule the work, which we did.  I chose A Fresh Coat above five other painters not because they were the cheapest but because Kurt, who wrote the bid for me, listened to my concerns, including neighbors and plants, and wrote a work plan that addressed each concern specifically as well as outlined the details of the painting job itself.  Now that the work is done, I am so very pleased.  Most important, the quality of the job is superb. Prep work looked to be quite thorough.  Painters were tidy as they worked throughout the day and clean up each evening and at the end of the job was perfect.  The house was power washed, personally by Kurt, the week before the painting began.  Then on Monday morning, Chris and his crew of four others got right to work.  Throughout the four days, each man worked hard and steadily, with skill and application.  They worked well together, with a superior work ethic.  This teamwork shows in the really high quality product--a job well done!

I plan to have the house power washed in a couple of years to prolong the spiffy look as well as to simply clean away the dust, dirt, and bugs that inevitably collect.  And I will call Kurt to schedule A Fresh Coat Painting do this job as well.   Catherine Helmick   PORTLAND, OR 97217
