Terrible experience. They took the money but never finished the job. I tried calling many times just to get more and more excuses. I do not recommend this company.

Bill and his team did a great job on the cleaning and staining of my house. I will definitely give him top consideration the next time I need to have my house stained.

All I can say is WOW! I wish every contractor was as professional and had such attention to detail as Bill and his team. They surpassed our expectations in every possible way. They were here on time, did a beautiful job and left the job site sparkling clean. Our house looks BEAUTIFUL!! We honestly couldn t be happier! We will definitely use Bad Dog again!

I am very pleased with my BadDog painting experience. Bill, the owner, was easy to work with, spent time to make sure he understood my expectations, gave me a timely and fair estimate, and kept in contact with me throughout the project. He made sure he addressed any questions or issues I had to make sure I was happy with his team's work. BadDog prepped, primed and painted my single family home (and shed to match) including all trim, garage doors, front door, shutters, gutters and down spouts. Completed work on time and cleaned up each day and after project. His guys even took the time to paint the star on my shed to match the shutters. My house looks beautiful!

Bill and his crew are absolutely amazing. Fantastic service full of professionalism and courtesy. His crew pulled a 13-hour painting job with literally a 30 minutes lunch stop. They repaired, treated and painted the entire interior of my home including doors, trims and baseboards. All in 1 day with immaculate precision. This is the 2nd time I hire Bill. First time in 2012 for interior paint as well and I didn't even bother to call anyone else, just called Bill and he delivered, as expected. Highly recommended. You won't regret it.

Bottom line: Bill Souza was the easiest to communicate with, the most accommodating, had the lowest estimate, his men did far and away the most preparation of the decks before staining, used the best staining technique (no rollers), and in general had many men on the job who spared no effort and time in order to do the job right. They even came back from Portsmouth once the decks were dry to replace the deck furniture. Don't bother with multiple estimates...just call Bill.

I hired Bad Dog Painting to paint my exterior porch. Bill Souza is very professional and honest. He answered all my questions, quickly gave us and estimate and completed the work within the week. The crew did an excellent job and I couldn't be happier with the quality of their work. I highly recommend Bad Dog Painting!

Review by Fred & Christine, Owner and crew provided much to praise: highly efficient, hard working, reliable, trustworthy, great customer focus, and top quality workmanship. Bad Dog painting transformmed our bland looking property into a home of distinction. Excellent performance every step of the way.

Our 1862 house looks new. Bill was great to work with. Our house is in the historic district of Newport. Ladders had to be placed on the road surface of our busy street to paint our peak. Matt and Vinny are friendly, hard working, and excellent painters. We strongly recommend Bad Dog for your painting needs.

Very congenial owner. Kept me informed of schedule. Very efficient operation. Washed windows. Could have cleaned up better. Left the walk and drive muddy. It was not quoted, but I would have washed gutters. Highly recommend.

I selected Bad Dog to do work through Home Adviser and my decision was based on the wonderful and professional comments about this company. Well, they exceeded my expectations, and Bill's positive and honest approach working with a long distance client was nothing short of outstanding. I got bids from others and chose a company that demonstrated honesty, listened to my needs and expectations, and were proven in the community. It is very rare from my experience to have contractors respond immediately to a request for a bid, show up on the day they say they will start and update the homeowner in my case long distance regularly with pictures and comments of progress. Bill is the ONLY painter I would work with again for work on my home and the FIRST I will recommend with absolutely no hesitation. Professional and VERY POSITIVE experience!!!!!

Bill and the boys are as advertised. They showed up on time, finished on time and the work they did was superior. They even did a little extra that I wasn't expecting!! I highly recommend Bad Dog Painting and I will surely use them again.

This is the third time I have used Bill Souza and his men (Bad Dog Painting) to paint my home over the past 20 years and I have ALWAYS been satisfied. They do a quality prep job, replace rotten wood and shingles, and do an excellent painting job. The men are professional, cleanup after they are done, and perform work in a timely manner. House looks excellent. Strongly recommend.

Had bees in the peak vent. Had to paint that the next day. Painted , then unexpected rain washed off. White streaks on shingles. Came back on first clear day and repainted the whole side trim and shingles. Above and beyond what I expected.

Owner Bill is very responsive and easy to work with. His crews are courteous professionals, they leave no drips or splatter,and are serious about their work and quality. Good attention to details. Bill also will not apply paint if the house is damp or wet so your sure to get good adhesion and ample drying time. Dad Dog will by my go to paint company when I do my interior paint as well.

Bad Dog painting is the best!! I highly recommend them, and they will be who I call for any future painting I may need. Price, Quality, Professionalism, and Speed made this a fantastic experience! Bill, the owner does it right, he and his staff did an amazing job painting the exterior of our Portsmouth home and our deck in record time. It is so nice to know I no longer have to dread needing some painting done, it can be a positive experience. The Bad Dog Experience!
