Precision Painting Plus of Montclair

Precision's quote was about $700 more than any other quote we received and didn't even include the cost of paint, but we decided to splurge to make sure the job was done right after Gil convinced us that we were paying for quality. Our quote included radiators, trim, closets and a fireplace. He mentioned that they would also do some minimal sanding and staining on unpainted trim that had seen better days. On the day the painters arrived, it was confirmed that the trim could be addressed and estimated that the whole job would be done in 3-4 days. On the third day, (Wednesday) Joel told us that the work was done, but the fireplace, closets and trim had not been done. In addition, the work was sloppy in a few places, mostly where the trim met the walls. My wife and I painted our last apartment in a prewar building and we know that we could have done a better job ourselves. In any case, there was a lot of poor communication and they could not get another painter in there to finish the work until the following Monday. When the painter arrived, he told us that he was only told to paint the fireplace. The painter then told us that he was leaving because Gil is very disrespectful and never told him that he needed to do the closets or work on the unpainted trim. This put our plans to move 2 days later in limbo as we pleaded with the painter to stay and finish the job. Eventually he stayed and did a great job. When Gil did the walkthrough, he tried to pin the sloppy work on the age of the house. I don't see how that can affect how one places tape on wall trim. He also acted as if he did us a favor by finishing the closets, even though they were included in the contract. When we first got our quote, it was estimated that the cost for paint and materials would be about $400-500. We wound up paying $1500 for materials. In the end our job wound up costing more than $2500 more than the next most expensive quote and it was not to our satisfaction. Gil did not seem to care and did not really offer anything meaningful as compensation to make up for the shoddy work and the unfulfilled promises. My father-in-law had initially planned on using Precision to paint his house from top to bottom, but after our experience there's no way we could recommend them.

Everyone from start to finish was great to work with! From Greg and his initial quote, to Jason the project manager and his hard-working team! The attention to detail by Jason was second to none, and the quality was top-notch! Highly recommend this company!

Project manager,Michael, is amazing. The crew were punctual and neat. Excellent work!

The painters and the work was excellent! I had several interior rooms painted and they look great! However, the customer service needs a serious overhaul. I had an issue arise and the company did compensate, but the manner in which the customer service manager and project manager handled my project could have been much better. Communication and manner needs to improve, but overall the work is excellent.

They were fast and excellent workers. They cleaned up beyond what I had expected. The outside of our home looks brand new. great staff.

did a beautiful job. quicker than they projected. very clean. great staff. great communication.

Precision Painting Plus stained my cedar fence and did a great job. Their communication can use a little bit of work but overall it was a good experience and I would happily hire them again.

Decent painting on 4 very small jobs. Only real flaw was that the painters did not show on the day they promised but did come the next day.

The young men who painted were polite gentlemen that did a very good job. I appreciated that Jake the Project Manager understood exactly what I wanted. A company I would use again.

They came when they were not supposed to come with no advance notice. They never power washed the huge door and front of the area. They didn't even have any hose with them. They inconvenienced me and my tenant had to take off from work to move his vehicle and has asked me to replace his time lost at work and his extra costs of transportation to move his vehicles parked right by the door. The color also did not match. I was told it would take 2 men 3 days to complete this, when in fact only one man was ever there. The employee (painter) refused to speak with me when I showed up there after me having to leave work because of the problems. It is a bright red now instead of the correct color. I have never had such an awful company work for me ever! I was very overcharged for the work and did not come when scheduled. I have never spent so many hours going back and forth and waiting for them.
