We chose Michael from the Angie's List listing based on the reviews and because he lived nearby. We cannot offer enough positive praise about how well our experience went with Michael - from our first inquiry about his services, to the estimate, to the meeting concerning our painting color choices, to the daily work (he said they would start on Thursday and take 4 days which it did), to the cleanliness of the apartment after each day. Beyond all of the agreed upon tasks and how well they were carried out, Michael noted that our newly repaired floor had some fill the color of which was too light for the floor. He offered to bring some tint to tamp it down a bit. To us that said that Michael took ownership of the entire appearance of the apartment. And, oh yes, the music in the apartment while they painted was great.
