“We would like your future customers to know that we are repeat customers and will be in the future. The job met our expectations of continuing quality. Our painter was Rich and our paper repairs were done by Mike Koz. Both were prompt, uniformed professional, well mannered, clean, responsible and expert workmen. Rich had a big challenge, as the exterior painting required him to maneuver around our foundation plantings. Not only was that physically difficult, but he also went to great lengths to protect them and did an excellent job in spite of that obstacle. He pointed out additional problems we need to attend to. He is highly organized and thorough and very good at what he does and also a very pleasant and decent person. We will certainly ask for him next time. The place was spotless when they left. How could you improve? Just keep doing what you’re doing!”

“I want to thank you for painting my house. For several years, I have had my eye on some of the other houses you’ve painted in Evanston. I have to say that the quality of your prep work and the professionalism of Jan and Ladi was outstanding, and surpassed my expectations! I’m enclosing a photo to show how thoroughly they stripped the cedar shingles. I also appreciate the detail work to repair the shutters, reconstruct the entranceway, and shore up the garage. The deck looks like new. 

Friends and neighbors have all remarked on how nice the house looks, and one of my coworkers – who also happens to live down the street and used to paint houses himself – asked me how I happened to find the best painter on the North Shore. 

Thanks again, Shawn. This was a big investment for me, and it’s great to know your work will last. Please feel free to have potential clients call me for a reference.”
