Hands down the easiest home-service decision we've made. Phil and they refinished our oak cabinets and they look like new shaker boxes.

Just outstanding work from start to finish. Phil and they painted the entire main floor in three days with zero mess, and they wore booties in the house without being asked. Saved their number to favorites.

Some real issues we had to work through. Phil did the exterior of our two-story Victorian and the prep work alone was a master class, and the whole crew made sure our dog was comfortable around the crew. They also sent us photos of the progress while we were at work, which we really appreciated. We'd think twice before calling them again.

Honestly, exceeded our expectations. Phil and they did the exterior of our two-story Victorian and the prep work alone was a master class, and they made sure our dog was comfortable around the crew. If you're on the fence, just call them.

Wow — what a refreshing experience. Phil and they stained our deck and wrapped the spindles individually — incredible attention to detail, and they called the night before to confirm. Will be using them for everything from now on.

Pretty frustrating from start to finish. Phil and the crew painted the entire main floor in three days with zero mess, and they wore booties in the house without being asked. Hard pass.

Wanted to like them more than we did. Phil and the crew did our nursery the weekend before our baby came home.

Five stars all the way. Phil painted the entire main floor in three days with zero mess, and the whole crew showed up exactly when they said they would. They also wore booties in the house without being asked, which we really appreciated. Will be using them for everything from now on.

Hands down the easiest home-service decision we've made. Phil painted all the trim and doors throughout — sharper edges than I knew were possible, and the whole crew sent us photos of the progress while we were at work. They also took the time to answer every question we had, which we really appreciated. Ten out of ten — this is how it should be.

Honestly, exceeded our expectations. Phil and they stained our deck and wrapped the spindles individually — incredible attention to detail, and they made sure our dog was comfortable around the crew. We've already recommended Phil to two neighbors.

Genuinely good work and good people. Phil and they painted the entire main floor in three days with zero mess, and they explained everything in plain English without talking down to us. Glad we picked them.

Dependable and easy to work with. Phil and they removed three layers of wallpaper from a bathroom and you'd never know it was there.

Truly above and beyond. Phil and they painted all the trim and doors throughout — sharper edges than I knew were possible, and they stuck to the original quote with no surprise add-ons. Will be using them for everything from now on.
