Get matched with top wall covering pros in Norfolk, VA

"Wilber and his painting crew arrived right on time to perform the job. All work was done in a timely manner and the crew exhibited outstanding professionalism in performing the work. In addition to painting the walls, ceiling and trim in one of our bedrooms and bathroom, they patched any imperfections in the walls and nail holes before they started to paint. After all painting work was complete, Wilber personally walked through all the rooms painted with me to assure I was satisfied. I couldn't be more satisfied with the job Wilber's crew did and I would definitely hire them again, as well as recommend them to others looking for a painter."

"We wanted to paint over paneling. This project turned out to last 4 days! Workers used several coats of primer then followed up with several coats of paint. All nails holes were fixed. Workers covered all areas with tarps. We were kept informed of progress throughout. We decided to "white wash" the fireplace.... this turned out fantastic! Very appreciative of the services provided."

"Eric, our professional painter, arrived at the appointed time and worked for the eight hours we had purchased through Angie's List. He put two coats of paint on the walls and he put three coats of paint on the stained trim. He finished the painting and very efficiently cleaned up the job site. My wife, who is an artist and who is a perfectionist, really liked the work done by Eric. He took a lot of pride in his work as a professional."

"The storm door took nearly 3 hours to put on and it's still not on right. The frame was fine. Chris came back later to do my folding doors on my towel closet, they needed shortening as carpet is thick, chris did it and put them back up problem is my son barely touch one the other night and it fell out on top of him , not sure how that happens when it's on rails? They haven't responded to me at all. I'm upset as I paid him for two other projects that never went right I gave him benefit of the doubt as he's a nice guy and normally willing to fix it but this is to much. The paint was never fixed as promised and after the sloppy bathroom remodel ( I still have area behind toilet that was never caulked/sealed) it's disappointing, they had to come back after I told them there was nothing under my tub? It kept creaking and could've cracked causing me a flood, they told me they fixed it, but its still creaking and left me with a messed up wall that was painted with a different sheen (this was after putting a hole through my wall from the bathroom job). The bathroom wasn't even painted properly it looks like my kids did it. The bathroom was nearly $5000 and paint job was $900 none of it was done properly/professionally. Especially the paint I left it so long to review as mark said they would fix it and it's taken a year and nothing. I have sent several emails asking to fix my tub and Mark keeps stating he will get to it and its been MONTHS, if the tub cracks my house will flood and it will end up being a court case."

"Tommy Papineau the owner of Always Painting by Tommy is a consummate professional.  He was the third quote (from Angie's List) we got for painters and I can say with all certainty:   "we saved the best for last."  Tommy and Brian arrived on time for the estimate and thoroughly managed our expectations on cost, what was required to get the job done perfectly and the length of time it would take.  They promised a written quote and it was delivered ina timely fashion.
   We chose Always Painting by Tommy and could not be happier that we did.  Tommy, Louis and Brian arrived on time every day, some times early.  They cleaned up after themselves even going as far as getting down on their hands and knees to hand wash the drywall dust off our hardwood floors.  Brian spent a good three hours cleaning our bathroom after they were finished and it was definitely cleaner than some of the house keeping companies I've hired to come in. 
    The work was carefully executed, with no surprises. The Always Painting by Tommy Team had laser-like focus on the task at hand with communication flowing between themselves and with us, the homeowners. Quality was everything. Tommy was meticulous in the delivery of his product. Nothing was rushed.  Nothing was dragged out. Quality was consistent in every phase of the project.  Their experience and vast knowledge of their craft  made everything flow so very smoothly.  It also distinguished them in my mind from all the rest because of the pride they take in their work.  They are true artists.  
     The walls in our master bathroom were a disaster and a huge source of stress and tears for me. Tommy and his team took it all in stride and transformed it with precision.  I smile now when I look at the walls and that is purely due to Tommy, Brian and Louis.
    Additionally, they were very accommodating with the time constraints we imposed. The breaks they took were minimal and they did NOT take any lunch breaks.  The focus was solely on doing the job and doing it to perfection. At the end of each day, everything was cleaned up, made ready for the next day's work and stored. What could have been a very anxiety filled experience proved to be a very relaxing one. Bottom line, because of their professionalism, craftsmanship and expertise, "Always Painting By Tommy" is the only company we will allow to touch our home! We were WOW-ed by the end result.  It was a joy to write them a check for their work.  I would not hesitate to recommend them and look forward to the opportunity to hire them again.  Truly the BEST painters in Hampton Roads.
