Buford's Painting & Cleaning Services

unknown

We were nothing but impressed from our first interaction with Ken and Linda Buford.  They returned our initial call immediately and even came out that night to assess the project's time and cost.  We received a written estimate and paint samples in very timely manner.  Once we scheduled the job, Ken and Linda worked as a team to prep and paint the area.  Their attention to detail was evident from the start of the work.  The work was extremely thorough and done quickly.  I would consider myself a "picky" client and they definitely exceeded my expectations. The edging and trim work were clean and the lines were impeccable. They use 2 coats of quality paint.  They cleaned up everything and left no messes. I appreciated that they listened carefully to what we wanted done, gave us some suggestions and delivered a beautiful end result.  There was nothing I would have had them do differently.  Anymore, I don't think you find many talented, true professionals, like Ken, who can deliver such stellar results.  I would recommend them beyond a shadow of a doubt.  In fact, because they did such a fantastic job, we are having them paint the outside of our house as well.

Mr. and Mrs. Buford were a pleasure to work with and very professional.  Mr. Buford did an excellent job and worked diligently to complete the job in 4 days. <br />

Very friendly. On time. Moved/covered all furniture and then cleaned up beautifully when done. Prepped all walls first. Excellent job! <br />

I would not hesitate to use Ken and Linda again because  they are very sincere and are very professional. They keep you updated with progress and do not hesitate to ask you a question  if need be. I cannot find one single flaw with the work Ken did. It was a very easy process. They give you the paint samples, you choose what you want and then tell them. I gave Sherwin Williams a credit card number and signed the form. This way Ken get the paint and he is on his way to start the job. He calculated the amount of paint needed and we have enough left over for touch ups through everyday living. We feel like we received a great service at a great price both Linda and Ken did a great job of cleanup in the end. Ken was very thorough and took the large bathroom mirror down, painted the area and placed the mirror back. I would have never done that ourselves. His wall spackling is flawless. We had two outlets taken out and you cannot see where they were. He moves all major appliances and even cleaned behind all of them. I don't know how he did this, but he moved our hutch with many breakables and it was moved back with absolutely no pproblem!  Again, I would HIGHLY recommend Linda and Ken Buford for painting needs. Our house interior now looks awesome and we are so happy! Thank you, Linda and Ken!!! You will be hearing from us again!! <br />

Ken not only painted the interior but also did all of the prep work like removing old wallpaper trim and patching the walls and ceilings where needed. He had to work around other tradesmen in the house at the same time with no issues. Ken does all of the little things that make the difference between an acceptable job, and an outstanding job. He always goes the extra mile and never leaves a mess. We recommend Buford's very highly. <br />

<p>We had Ken out to paint the exterior of our house.  Not only did Ken show up on the days promised but he was also punctual and put in a good 10 hour day.  We used him for 3 days and paid by the hour.  We would have like to have had him do the whole job but he does not take credit cards and we did not have enough saved up to finish the whole job.  We went with another painter that was supposed to have a crew of guys and would have the job completed in 2 weeks.  What a HUGE mistake we made!  We should have stayed with Ken and just had him to what we could afford to do at the time.  Ken is a really hard worker and an honest person.</p> <br />

I would hire the Bufords in a minute. They did my entire outside never skimping on anything. <br />

very well <br />

Ken totally exceeded our expectations in terms of quality and timeliness of the work we hired him to do. He not only did a fantastic paint job, he was very polite and a thorough gentleman.  <br /> His conduct was very professional in terms of keeping his commitment to finish the job on time, showing up each day on time, taking care of smallest detail and, above all, keeping a high standard to judge his own work. We call it KEN PERFECTION. He took great precaution to protect all our belongings/ furniture/ areas while painting. At the end of every day he would meticulously vacuum/ clean any/ all affected areas.  <br /> He was so good that we even asked him to do additional job for us to stain/ paint our deck and put a new epoxy garage flooring which he again did it with Ken Perfection!! He completed all of our work at quite reasonable price. Everyone who visits our home notices the professional work he has done and are asking for his contact info which is a great testament to his work. We have dealt with multiple contractors to do different jobs at home and we can say with experience that people like Ken are rare to find and once found they are to keep forever. We would hire him again in a blink if we have a need in future for his services.

Great, once it stopped raining long enough for it to be done.

The painting is perfect! It was just so nice. He never had any lines crossed or anything. There's just so many lines and he's got it perfect. They're hardworking people and honest. The price was reasonable and included painting and cleaning

She is fast and thorough. <br />

He was very punctual, paid attention to details and instructions, was very careful while painting. I had 2 walls with lighter shade and one wall a dark shade and his paint line in the corners is very straight and excellent job.   The wall and ceiling lines are very clean and straight also. I am very pleased and impressed how quick he worked and the outcome top notch. <br />

I told Kenneth what needed painted and what color. He then completed the task with excellent results. Once he was given a task, he worked independently to complete it. He had self-initiative to continue the task and would also suggest a better solution to different tasks. Kenneth was very polite as well as punctual every day that he worked for us. Given a need to have a painter again, we would definitely think of using Kenneth for the job.

<p>Everything was great. Kenneth used paint that keep the smell down and he did an excellent job painting. He did two coats to hide the previous paint job and it only took two days. Would use them again in the future. </p> <br />

Excellent service and price. Extremely detailed painting job and always checking to make sure we were satisfied. <br />

I was pleasantly surprised at the quick response and that they were able to fit me in to their schedule so fast. This husband/wife team were very professional but friendly and fun to work with. I can't wait to have them return to do another job for us because we feel that the quality of work was superb. I would highly recommend Ken and Linda Buford to anyone in need of painting. I am working on the details to have Linda help me with her other specialty of organization. <br />

It took Ken about 6 weeks to complete the task. His biggest obstacle was the weather as he did not want to scrape down to bare siding and then have it get wet. When the weather cooperated, he arrived at 7:30 and left around 6. <br /> I would hire him again with no hesitation at all. <br />

Kenneth, the owner, did a wonderful job. Ken was dependable, punctual, professional, and polite. He knows his business and he does it well. He checked daily about the next day's schedule and if we were happy with his work. He always said if we saw anything wrong to let us know and he would fix it. He moved furniture, covered it. He took down the curtains and curtain rods. He also taped, fixed plaster holes in walls, and tended to any last minute needs we had. For example after he painted the wall around a door, the door looked like it could be updated, so Ken painted for us. We had no issues with Ken or his work what-so-ever. He had a great personality (he was funny) and was a pleasure to work with. We have already highly recommended him to others.

One word for the services provided, EXCELLENT. Beyond our expectations. We will utilize Buford Painting and Cleaning in the spring to paint the exterior of our home. <br />

We own a duplex in Davenport. It needs work inside and outside. There had been vines growing up the front of the house. When we pulled the vines off it left little suckers on the siding that would take the paint off when removing them. I went on Angie's list to find a painter. I called Bufords Painting and Cleaning Services. Ken and his wife came over to look at it. Ken went through all the steps of what he would do and within a couple of days he e-mailed me an estimate. For washing down the siding with TSP, scraping the wood trim, and painting he estimated $595.00 plus materials. The material and paint came to $142. Total $737.00. My husband and I are very pleased the quality of his work and his professionalism. We have asked him to come back in the spring and paint the garage. We're thinking about painting the inside also. <br />
