Everything from start to finish went very well. The quality of the work is exceptional. We were very pleased with the finished project. The workers were prompt and courteous. We have used Short's painting for outside work and now have used them for inside work, and we would hire them again.

This was the second time I used them and was very satisfied with the work and the cost. The skylight has some paint residue on the window which I was not too pleased with. I will have to bring my extension ladder in and see if I can clean the window. Otherwise the work was done very quickly and professionally.

Exceptional work by exceptional tradesmen. No detail was overlooked. Landscaping & surfaces were protected from paint. The crew power washed, scraped, caulked, repaired wood rot, and painted. We have windows with wood exterior muttons. The paint was applied by paintbrush. Clean crisp detailing work. Included with the job shutters & patio railing. After painting they washed the exterior windows, blew the scraped off paint chips off walkways & patios. We supplied the paint due to wanting Benjamin Moore to mix fungicide in the paint to stop Northside exterior mold on custom wood siding & dormers. The crew was so incredible. We are so pleased my husband tipped each tradesman. We are hiring them again to do interior work. We’ve worked with top flight paint crews before. Short’s crew raised the bar on skill set, attention to detail, respect for the property and were pleasant. We couldn’t be happier. Money well spent.

We have used Shorts before and as before everything went great. Mr. Short is always prompt with his quotes, his office staff helpful and responsive and the crew did an excellent job. There was considerable patching to do and painting of the walls and ceiling. We were 100% satisfied as always. Such a great company to work with - can say enough good things about them!!!

We are extremely pleased with every aspect of the work performed by Short’s painting at our home. The work encompassed exterior painting of the entire home including shutters, gutters, light fixtures, railings, garage doors and multiple coats of sealer applied to a walnut front door. We could not have hoped for a better outcome, absolutely beautiful. Thank you to Mike Short and the wonderful crew he sent to us...Gabriel and his brother. You were all a joy to work with. The pride of workmanship shows in every detail.

Gabe and his brother were fantastic! We had our entire home power washed, trim painted and trim boards replaced. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how the work was completed. Not only was the quality of work top notch but the communication from start to finish was great. We would absolutely recommend Short’s Painting for an exterior home project!

All the work was excellent! This is the first time we used Shorts and I would highly recommend without any reservation. They were extremely prompt with their quoting process and once the work began the crew worked diligently. They were responsive and the wood repair was somewhat complicated but they did an outstanding job. The stripping and staining of the deck was the best we have ever had. Once they committed to our project they stayed on task. Their pricing is very fair as well. I cannot say enough good things about the crew and their office staff is very receptive and helpful. If you call - you get an answer!

Fantastic! I cannot say enough good things about this company. They responded quickly to our initial call and arrived on time. All communication was clear, the estimate was competitive, the painters were pleasant and polite, worked efficiently and cleaned up perfectly. The room looks beautiful! What more could you want? We have already hired them to paint our home exterior next.

Very well. Fabian and Jerimiah were both good workers and responsive to the couple requests I had. I expected the eggshell paint to have a little more gloss, it is very matt. Will discuss that more next time.

We were very pleased with the paint job. The painters also replaced rotted wood in numerous places, and completely re-screened the back porch, and installed two brand new screen doors in that back porch. When we added a 4th color, there was no extra charge. The 2-person paint crew (Gabriele and his brother) were very professional and knowledgable, not to mention skillful in painting. Two coats everywhere, and it looks spectacular. My only negative comment is communication between the painters and the home office was sometimes not as good as it could be, but that was a minor issue.

Super job. Mike sent me two very courteous and conscientious painters, The entire main floor walls and ceilings were painted. They repaired holes in the walls and updated my kitchen cabinets and drawers by removing the 'buttons'. I am so very pleased with how everything looks.

Have used Short's twice in the past for exterior trim painting and had excellent experiences and results. Their estimate for repainting our master bedroom and bath was the lowest and the description of what and how they would do it was comprehensive. Mike Short's paint reco (S-W Cashmere low-lustre) was perfect. The results were outstanding! This was the neatest, most blemish-free paint job we've experienced. Of course, we'll continue to use Short's in the future.

Very nice job. This is the second time we have used Short's to paint our home. Mike Short was very responsive and very pleasant. His Team Lead, Gabriel, was excellent as well. I would highly recommend Short's Painting for the excellent work that they do and the courteous and professional manner in which they treat their customers.

We had quite a bit of drywall damage from some wallpaper we had taken down. The initial look was very quick and easy, and the bid we got was by far the lowest we had received. His team did a phenomenal job and ended up saving us a ton of money. I will definitely be calling him again for any future needs!

Beginning with the quote process, Mike Short was extremely professional, and paid attention to every detail when finalizing his quote. I want to especially comment on the great job that the painters Frankie and Pauley did. It is rare these days to get professionals who take such pride in their work, and also believe in satisfying their customer. They always arrived on time each day and did not take any short cuts during the days that they were here. Not only was the painting done well, but the preparation was meticulous, as well as the cleanup and finishing.
