"These painters are ever more impressive and detailed than I ever imagined someone would be. We had multiple people come look at our house to be painted and Randy and Chris immediately stood out to us with their knowledge and understanding of what we wanted. And I never felt like we were being sold or pressured into anything. Highly recommend them!"

"I can’t praise Julian’s work enough. I was very pleased and look forward to having him back in the near future. He was prompt, persistent and proficient with an eye for detail, while focusing on the job at hand. Watching the care he took in his painting, including removing old paint coatings, applying various finishes, including primer, sealer and two coats of high quality paints, he also took the time to obtain the desired color needed. Along with all this, his pricing was more than fair for a job well done. Also, something you don’t experience everyday is, he wouldn’t accept my check until I approved all his work. In closing, I sound like an advertisement, but I’m trying to make the point of how pleased I was with his work. Thanks again Julian. See you again soon for some interior painting I need done."

"They did an AMAZING job painting the exterior of my home. Attention to detail, let me know when they were coming and showed up on time, and the price was un-beatable. Very satisfied with their work and would recommend them to anyone looking for a high quality paint professional."

"Jerry and crew went out of their way to paint our living, dining, & kitchen area. They moved furniture, filled holes in the walls, & even refinished part of our ceiling. They did all prep work necessary (sanding wall surfaces and filling in seams so there was no surface that didn’t have paint on it). They used a high quality latex paint and did 2 coats on the walls. Would definitely hire again."

"I called and left a message to inquire about services and I received a return phone call the same day. The gentleman I spoke to on the phone was pleasant. I wanted to know how soon I could get them over, and they squeezed me in on a Friday (I believe I called on a Wednesday).  They showed up as scheduled and did the whole house.
This was the first time I have ever hired a carpet cleaning service. I thought when they showed up, they would give feedback and let us know if there were stains they couldn't remove or odors they were noticing and ask us if wanted to pay extra to remove. This was not the case. There were still multiple stains and it enhanced any odors that were already there. 
I mailed my check in for payment, because they did attempt to clean the carpets, which I don't think they have cashed yet. I called back a week later and left a message letting them know there were still stains and I wanted to see if they could come back and that I realized it would be an additional fee. I left a message on a Thursday at 4:55 p.m. I figured I would get a call back on Friday. Did not receive a return call. I called again and left another message on Saturday in case they happened to be open. It was the holiday weekend so I thought maybe I would receive a return call on Tuesday. Still no return call on Tuesday or Wednesday. So on Thursday I had to call another company. 
It's not my favorite thing to leave a poor review and I realize that there must have been some communication errors on my end, but I really would have appreciated a call back.I am now having to pay another company to redo the house. It's important to have clean carpets and an odor free house when it's on the market.

FAQs for painting projects in Carter Lake, IA

You’ll need 1 gallon of paint per 350 square feet of coverage. Typical amounts per room size:

  • Small room (200-400 sq. ft.): 1 gallon.

  • Medium-sized (400-800 sq. ft.): 2-4 gallons.

  • Large (800-1,200 sq. ft.): 5-gallons or more.

Painters usually make $20 per hour on average or about $40,000 per year. Independent contractors might pocket a little more. However, they must charge for overhead, such as vehicles, equipment, insurance, marketing and association dues.

Specialty painting, like murals and trompe l’oeil, costs $40 to $50 per hour. Paint might range between $75 to $90. The professional’s skill and experience are also determining factors. While a freelance artist might charge $25 to $30 an hour, a very skilled professional might charge $80 or more. Some might also charge $60 or more for a consultation.

Trompe l'oeil creates a realistic image or optical illusion in three dimensions. Murals are composed on a wall of any size. These two projects vary in price, with a trompe l'oeil typically costing more because of its complexity. Both are considered specialty projects.
