Stan and his team (Brian and Carson) were extremely professional and helpful. Our discussion on paint color and paint brand resulted in a beautiful colonial presentation for our home. Brian and Carson were courteous and friendly, and skillfully completed the painting despite multiple weather delays. Stan was present and ensured were satisfied with the work, which we always were. We highly recommend Highland Painting and Construction Company.

Highland Painting did an excellent job of painting our rooms and tall ceilings and I am very happy to recommend their services. My wife and I were impressed with the high level of professionalism on display from day 1 through the day when our project was completed to our satisfaction. Stan McGinnis with his big friendly smile (yes, I could see that through the mask he was wearing) guided us every step of the way and assisted us greatly with the paint color selection. Mrs. McGinnis would follow up with phone calls to find out if we had any issues or concerns. The Highland painting team (Carsen and Brian) are dedicated professionals who came on time, cleaned up well after the job and did an outstanding job. A+. I intend to use their services again in the future. Thank you, Highland Paining and Construction for all your hard work.

"Farhad, Thank you for your kind words and great review! We do work hard to give the best possible service. We enjoyed working for you and your wife. P. selected excellent matching wall colors. The wainscoting added, gives the foyer view the finishing touch. Thank you again for your first-rate coffee! Look forward to meeting again in the spring! Stan"

Highland Painting and construction did an excellent job and would highly recommend for painting your interior home walls and ceiling. The Highland painting team attention to detail and expertise in colors and painting in difficult areas that my wife and I thought would tuff, did the job at ease. They did not rush through the job but finished the job on time as instucted according to the contract.. These gentlemen are very professional, they start everyday on time, thus streamlining their plan and executing thoughtout on the paint project from begining to end. I would highly recommend Highland Painting and we plan on using them for our new home we purchased in the future as they assisted in preparing our old home for sale. My wife and I are so happy that we selected Highland Painting and Construction over three other contractors. Stan and his team (Carson and Brain) delivered a high quality product just as you would see in new fresh built homes. Thanks again to Highland Paining and Construction, we appreciate you all and the work.

Looking for wallpaper removal led us to Highland Painting & Construction. Stan McGinnis, the owner has a process to prepare the wallpapered walls (even with peeling paper) for painting. Then, after painting the 3 rooms, the walls are completely smooth and beautiful! We were so pleased, we had his painters, Bryan and Carson, paint the entire interior of our home (12 rooms) including the basement and garage concrete floors. The work ethic of the painters and their results were A+. It was a pleasure to work with Stan, his pricing was fair and he took pains to assure proper preparation and appropriate paints were used to assure our satisfaction. StanMcGinnis and his painters are strongly recommended!!!
Response from Highland Painting and Construction
"Rodney, Thank You for Your Great Review! Highland Painting was just part of your coordinated plan to prepare you house for selling. You maintained a ?light? atmosphere....not always easy. Recapping, the wallpaper process you wrote about, is a savings to customers and gives superior end results! The ?paint matching caulk? saved us from having to repaint your trim. You also mentioned garage floor. The concrete paint we use is industrial grade, that provides years of a great looking, non-slip surface! From my vantage point, the work went as planned, even with ?Mother Nature? nudging us! We are very pleased we met your satisfaction! Highland Painting (Stan)"

Two weeks after I moved into my new house it flooded. I found Highland Painting and Construction on Home Advisor and I couldn't be more happy and pleased. Stan was great to work with. He was always friendly, honest and knowledgeable. Bryan and Karsin's work was exemplary. They were always punctual, hard-working and friendly. I was able to leave the house while they worked and never worried. Stan and his team checked with me throughout the project to make sure I was happy. I am thrilled with their work and the end result! I highly recommend Highland Painting and Construction.
Response from Highland Painting and Construction
"Diane, Thank you for your wonderful review! When home damage occurs, owners naturally stress and loose sleep over what to do, but you are always up and positive. You are towards the end of restoration and will soon breath easier! We color matched from the previous painter and it is a very nice, warm wall color. We will be ready when you need us again. HIGHLAND PAINTING Stan McGinnis"

Stan and his crew, Carson and Brian, did an awesome job in my home. Had the entire interior repainted and they were meticulous and very accommodating. Once job began, they were punctual and very hard-working. Best paint job I've ever had and I would definitely recommend them to anyone. Very reasonable pricing. I would hire again for any painting needs I have.

I had a wonderful experience with Highland, the owner Stan is a great guy, he's honest, funny, and just a pleasure to work with. His painters were the most professional people I've ever had in my home. Carson, Jessie, and Brian were the nicest, guys you would ever meet not to mention awesome painters. What I really like is Stan DOESN'T CONTRACT HIS WORK OUT!! I can say without a doubt I will never use anyone other than Highland.

Stan and Carson went above and beyond to completely transform the look of my two-story foyer, stairway and upstairs hallway! They were punctional, professional and easy to work with every step of the way. I also appreciated their ability to make small repairs as well. I highly recommend Highland Painting and will definitely hire them in the future.

If ZERO STARS were available, Stan and his painters would earn every ounce of that vote. For a $2,100 paint job they did a great job in my master closet and crown molding and completed the work in a timely matter for a 3 day project. However, for a touch up paint job they painted my kitchen, dining room, living room, hallways, and 2 bathrooms with THE WRONG COLOR. They left me with almost an entire home outlined in dark gray borders where they cut in and polka dot walls. According to Stan, painters do not notice a color difference, they notice lines. I have spoke to 2 professional paint companies who stated the issue should have been noticeable within the first day. Stan's simple solution was either fixing 2 walls or charging me more money to repaint. The simple solution would have been to stop painting the first day and go purchase the correct paint, WHICH THEY CHARGED ME FOR. Look elsewhere for a paint company who is honest and fair. Stan has refused to reply to my previous emails regarding alternate solutions
Response from Highland Painting and Construction
"Ms. B, First, you paid $750 to a handyman to paint majority of the interior of your 1905 sq ft house. You purchased BEHR paint, for his use to paint the walls. He left many inconsistencies on walls, ceilings, and trim, so you hired my company, for more money to ?repair his weak areas?. Specifically, our job was to ?touch up? walls, ceilings, trim and paint the master bedroom closet a non-white color. Second, the BEHR wall paint we used, was also purchased by you. You needed more BEHR paint, so you went back to the paint store. The person mixing the second 5 gallon, did not follow the original formula and the paint ended up a shade darker than the original paint used by the handyman. During my last visit to your house, I was trying to determine the mismatch, when you told me the wall paint we used, was bought at a later time, from the original paint purchase. Your main living area receives full sun. If it was this noticeable, you never mentioned a difference in the walls during the 3 ½ days we painted. Obviously, we didn?t see it either, otherwise we would have brought it up, quickly! We started on our work on Monday, December 18th, finished December 21st, you paid the invoice balance on December 23rd, and did not email me until January 4th of a paint mismatch. This is an eighteen (18) day span from day one. On my last visit, as I was leaving, I said to you with eye contact, ?This was not your fault and it wasn?t mine, but I feel responsible and I will make the walls right.? When I understood the problem was in the paint?entire walls had to be painted, including another cut-in.. I would have used my company provided paint. Before I could schedule that, (we had to coordinate our schedules) you brought in a third painter, I am sure, for more money. In your review, you said we did a great job on the crown and your master closet. We painted a ceiling, your chair and base molding. I provided the trim and ceiling paints from Sherwin-Williams. The point being, I?ve never had a formula paint mixed incorrectly. Paint companies use an exact mixture, stored in computers, for each color on a color chart. This is the formula. We used the paint that you bought, was mixed (incorrectly at the store) which you told me to use. I apologize for your concerns over your walls and truly wish we could have made them right for you."

Stan McGinnis from Highland Painting and Construction was exceptional. Stan arrived on time to provide a whole house estimate and answered all questions politely and professionally. The estimate arrived the next day as promised. It was fair, thorough and reflected all the details we had discussed. Stan is VERY communicative and places the customer first at all times. He and his painting crew arrived to paint on the day he promised, even though there was a snow storm. In fact, he showed up every day that week despite the horrific weather and road conditions. He completed the job on time and with exceptional results. All rooms to include ceilings, walls, trim and cabinets were painted. In fact, he even did things outside the scope of the work contract, because they were necessary and would enhance the overall result. He did so at no charge. Stan's mantra is "Anything for the customer." It is refreshing to see a pro who can make you feel good and comfortable about the entire process. I highly recommend Stan. WJM, Williamsburg

i explained I needed drywal repair, after coming to the house we negotiated painting to be done after the repair. the repair was horrible, had to be redone, took twice as long, painter was good but contractor complained the job was too small and did not want to deal with my complaints. he disappeared and left his painter to resolve issues. he did refuse to take the second payment and said he had never had th I s issue before so maybe I was a fluke
Response from Highland Painting and Construction
"Every paint job we have, has drywall repair. Our current job has repair work in each room, before painting. I believe in your case, your past experiences with contractors, set up a difficult scenario, which I agreed to. You needed most interior spaces painted, but could only allow one portion completed, accepted, paid for, then move to the next portion. You made it clear contractors have failed to fulfill agreed work in the past and were disillusioned with the industry. I was determined to improve your opinion and told you I wanted your business. First stage was the 1/2 bath. Next, was painting the foyer, stairs, 2 bedrooms. Third, would have been family and dining room. Now as I reflect on the ½ bath work, this job scenario does not produce job efficiency and quality work. Most drywall repair is made at the day's beginning. The worker returns to painting, then periodically checks the repairs. In your case, I devoted one man to drywall repair and painting a small 1/2 bath, until completion. Myself, I split time between your ½ bath and a job twenty miles from your house. Seeing your displeasure, I said I would bring your uncashed check deposit, (I had it with me) and return it to you and work until the work was completed at no charge?. you declined. As you said in comments, I refused final payment. I am sorry, I did not measure up for you. Customer satisfaction is important to my company."
