Dave and team did a fantastic job painting the exterior of our house and matching shed. From the start they communicated well and managed expectations. Their estimate was competitive with others we received and included replacement of around 100 siding boards. Work was completed professionally, on time and on budget. The few minor concerns I had were quickly addressed. I will definitely use them for all future painting needs.Posted on Kathie LongbriccoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having had several unpleasant experiences with painting contractors I contacted Proper Painters after seeing them on Facebook. I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect. I was holding out hope that maybe, just maybe I would be able to get the old shutters replaced and painted on my 1960’s Rancher (no contractor to date wanted to do this) AND I wanted the entire interior to be given a facelift. I needed multiple plaster cracks in ceilings & walls repaired and everything repainted including all moulding. I reached out via FB and was pleasantly surprised when Dave, the owner responded. From the first conversation my experience with PP was fabulous. The first meeting was with Dave for a free estimate, we chatted about what I wanted, he took multiple pics. got square footage and provided me with a rough estimate before leaving. OMG! Thank you! He followed up with a solid estimate & guarantee of workmanship within 48 hours. WOW! Impressive. I took my time with my decision and I’m happy to report I was not hounded or pressured in any way. I believe it was around day 10 when I received a text wondering if I had any questions - I hired PP that day. The ongoing, respectful, honest communication was refreshing and I’m happy to say it continued through to projects end. Proper Painters started on time and on the mutually agreed upon date. We did a walk thru with the project manager Jack lead painter, Elvin to ensure everyone was on the same page and then the transformation began. Two painters worked diligently for 4 days to complete the interior. They were conscientious, detail oriented, efficient and above all skilled. I was kept informed of day to day progress and the overall timeline. Once the interior was done the shutters were addressed. I had very old vinyl shutters in need of replacement & I wanted the new ones painted yellow. Dave was the only person who took the time to talk to me about options and because of this conversation I was able to confidently make the decision to replace the old vinyl with brand new wooden shutters. Problem solved!!!! Note: this seems like an easy solution but no other contractor wanted to “deal” with it. The wooden shutters were primed & painted in a custom shade that I absolutely love. The entire project took 6 days start to finish. I couldn’t be happier! I’m ringing in the New Year in a fresh “new” house, what better way to welcome 2026. Thank you Dave, Jack, Elvin & JulioPosted on Danessa KnauppTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was a terrific experience start to finish! Beth the color consultant was prompt and super helpful, Jack was responsive and friendly and knowledgeable, and Elvin and the painters were prompt, talented and FAST! highly recommend and wish all contractors worked as well as this team.Posted on Anne PickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Proper Painters was recommended to me and I am doing the same. They were professional, on time, cleaned up the mess from drywall sanding, within a price range I was willing to pay, and completed the job 10 days after signing estimate. The work included, removal of popcorn ceiling, drywall tape and mud of ceiling, drywall repair, and all the painting including baseboards, doors, and closets. Would I hire them again, absolutely.Posted on Melissa FaryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great experience from start to finish. Dave came out quickly to give me an estimate for the job. He explained everything to me perfectly about the entire process. He suggested Beth come out to help me settle on colors (this service is free, I highly recommend using it). She was great and then I was scheduled. Jack said 3 1/2 days and they were finished in 3 1/4 days. Gui painted 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, Living Room, kitchen, dining area and foyer beautifully. Everything is clean and gorgeous. I highly recommend Proper Painters.Posted on Leslie BlackwellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently used Proper Painters for an interior paint job and I have zero complaints about the process from start to finish. It was easy to get a quote, easy to schedule, and the quality was great. Definitely recommend!
