Sturgess Construction

He's very willing to do the work you ask him to. His work ethic is good and if I had any issues with the work, he came right back and corrected it.

Great job except one small spot (5” by 5”) in one room. Nice people. I can touch up the spot myself. I would call them again.

Great work very professional

Mark talks too much and Kaz does all the work. They also left a dusty mess from their dirty drop cloths which were filled with dust from being used elsewhere when sanding sheet rock. The ceiling also needed another coat or something because it is streaked and doesn't really look good. I really think they should have done more to make the ceiling look better and no more cost. The customer should be satisfied not have excuses made as to why it may look like it does. The bathroom and kitchen were fine but bad ceiling job.

I contacted this company through Home Advisor for 2 bedrooms. Mark responded the day I made contact which was nice. He said he would come over the weekend to give an estimate and didn't. He texted late Sunday to apologize and said he'd come Tuesday. Tuesday he said to send pics of the rooms for an over the phone estimate. I get it, we are all busy people. No problem. He wanted to come the following day which was great. I scrambled late on Tuesday to buy the paint and to make all the rooms ready for Wednesday morning. BTW, 6 months pregnant with a toddler - not easy. We agreed to start 9:30 on Wednesday. He texts me at 10 that he'll be there in a few minutes. At 11:30 he arrives. Ok, only 2 hours late, I can deal. They go to start the job (his son is with him) and don't have anything to cover my furniture. I use my own sheets to protect my stuff. Not sure why they have drop cloths down because they sat wet paint cans down directly on my carpet and there are now paint spots in various areas on the carpet. The edge trim is a little shaky (not that I can do better, but that's why I hired professionals). There's a few areas that didn't get full coverage (they only did one coat, as we agreed to) but I did expect them to go through with me to ensure I was happy before packing it all up. I found several areas that I will have to go back and do with the leftover paint due to obvious streaking - not painted evenly or in the same direction) and white spots where paint didn't even touch. The real reason I gave 3 stars (besides the streaks and being late), is he asked me for payment before completing the job. I don't think that's professional at all. He also told me if I wanted a better job, I could pay him more to come back. What?!?! He basically said I got what I paid for ($450 for 2 rooms, remember I bought the paint) and if I'd like it to look nicer he could come again for $350. If he would have said I'll do the best I possibly can for $800 upfront I would have paid it. I expected his best the first time. But telling me he can do it for $450 and then asking for more after its done to do it "to the next level" is just not the way I would have approached it. I appreciate their willingness to come out and squeeze my project in and for it being done in one day (other professionals had a 2 month wait) but now I see why. Just be aware that anyone who can do your job immediately isn't in high demand for a reason. Good price for a father son crew with quick turnaround that you're not too picky about looking like a pro did it.

I have hired many from Craigslist and have more bad ones than good ones. I used Home Advisor to find me a quality painter and I found it with John and his family. From start to finish they showed their professionalism. To me they are second to none. Not only do they paint but they can do pretty much anything from the floor to the ceiling. I can't speak highly enough to really show my appreciation on the job they did for me. They were very fair in their pricing. They do a job that they would expect a job done for them. I can't wait for their next project for me. If you want to call me to make sure this is a legit review and not a bogus review, I welcome you to call me anytime. Stan 8036296764
