We had been struggling with previous painting mishaps that we weren't sure if we should try again to have the hallways repainted. Our condo is vintage, so extra care was needed with original wood work. Great job overall.

The cost for the interior stairways was well below the other bids, and the bids for the other rooms were competitive. Ken explained that this was because he had all the equipment necessary to paint stairways and high ceilings. The other painters thought they would have to build scaffolding. The work was thoroughly professional and Ken was very easy to work with. Will hire him again if we can for additional painting.

Ken, Paul and Brandon did an excellent job from start to finish. Ken was responsive and more than fair price-wise. The whole team was thorough and did an outstanding job. I could not be more thrilled with the finished product and they were all so friendly. I will be calling Ken and his team in the future for any jobs that come up and recommend them to friends as well!

Initial response to inquiry was a little slow but after we established communication, all subsequent interactions were very timely. Ken's price was hard to beat, and he put in a long day to finish the work in a single day. He honored the handshake price agreement we had despite the long hours. Workmanship is solid and he was friendly and personable during his time here.

The place has never looked better in the 20 years that I have owned the place. Ceiling that needed repair looks brand new and that repair has been attempted by many different contracters without any sucess. The yellow walls have not bleed through so the prep work was well done. i have already hired him for another job, this one in a house that had a grease fire in the kitchen.

The day they were supposed to work, they arrived late because of a previous job, but stayed to finish. Even though I had prepped the area, they decided they needed to better protect my furniture, so they moved it without harming anything. the task they did best was smoothing and painting the ceiling, which had been done poorly by previous painter. It was lovely! They were very courteous and prefessional.

Ken Turner Custom Painting beautifully restored almost the entire interior of my house. I chose this company because of the high ratings the company has received on Angie's List, and because the company removes wallpaper, which is no longer commonplace among painting contractors. The painters worked diligently and quietly and put in long hours when necessary to stay on schedule. l highly recommend this business, as the owner is very focused on customer satisfaction. I have already reserved time with them for another project in the spring.

This isn't the first time that we have hired Ken and each time he has been prompt, diligent and takes care to clean up after himself at the end of each day. He's just a really nice guy on top of being a good painter.

Ken did a fabulous job. He had painted a different home for me over 5 years ago, but I remembered that he did a great job at a great price, so I called him back when I purchased another home. I needed the house to be painted a week that I had to go out of town. Ken was extremely professional, reliable and trustworthy. I gave him the instructions, a key to my house and went out of town for the week. When I returned over the weekend, the work was complete and was high quality. He called me after the work was completed and asked if there was any touch up work needed. There were only a few spots that needed touching up and he quickly returned to do those. If you need a high quality paint job at an affordable price, I would highly recommend Ken.

The work took 4.5 days, using 2 or 3 workers full-time each day. They managed to make the place look new, sealing water stains and caulking voids in the woodwork, as well as applying the paint in a meticulous fashion--on final inspection, there were a few small places that needed additional work and Ken sent out his crew to finish up the job.

<p>This was a big deal purchase. There were some bumps in the road but he eventually made it by here and the end result was decent. One of the problems was the scheduling. One thing that stood out was just the communication with the scheduling because we set a date, he did not come nor did he call to say he wasn't coming. I had to call him to find out what was going on. That was the major hiccup. In the deal it said that you would patch small places like where there was a nail. There are a couple of areas I felt like he could have patched it and smoothed it out. He said he was coming between 9 or 9:30 and he came afterwards. </p>

<p>BUYER BEWARE, Turner Custom Painting is the 3rd company I’ve used on Angie’s list, and this one should be removed in my opinion.   If ever there was a problem, I contacted the previous used company and they would come out and rectify the problem.  Not Mr. Turner His proposal has the name Turner Decorating Kenneth Turner is unprofessional as well totally unprepared I ask Mr. Turner was he sure there would be no mess and he assured me that he is not A rated on Angies list for nothing.  There is dust all over my house; everything has to be cleaned and polished.  While the paint job is ok, he’s hardly top of the line, constantly taking short cuts.  He came to my house with several pieces of drop clothes some with holes in it.  He had no rags, which I had to provide and was never returned.  My floors were so smeared from him wiping them up with dirty clothes; he couldn’t paint behind the radiators, after I told him this is an old home. During this process upon completion it looked good on the surface, so I paid Mr. Turner $1,387.00 per his proposal, however, later Saturday evening, while trying to put my home back in order and cleaned all the dust, I examined my wall more carefully and found flaws.  I immediately contacted Mr. Turner leaving him a voice mail.  He did not respond.  I called him twice on Monday Morning still no response.  I now find that I have to hire yet another painter to correct this one wall in which Mr. Turner refuses to address.  I not sure how Angie’s adds companies to her list but in this instance I think she really needs to verify the company as well as the companies name.  Most companies try to maintain an A rating not this company.  I will also be contacting the BBB about Mr. Kenneth Turner in regards to his practices.</p>

Ken is very personable. He came out to provide a quote for our rental unit. He told me (and noted in his quote) that it would take 2 - 2 1/2 days to complete the job with 3 painters. I thought that seemed excessive, but then assumed he would know. <br /> He required that we purchase the paint. On the 28th, he called me from the store and asked if I would mind providing a charge card number to the store owner for the paint. Once I received an email receipt from the store, I realized I also paid for some add'l small items that totaled about $10 - including a bag of rags, sanding sponge, etc. <br /> Our current tenants were out of the unit on the evening of the 29th. Our new tenants were moving in on the 1st at 11:30am. Ken told me he needed to start at 7am on the 30th. As I was driving to meet him, he called to say traffic was held up due to an accident (he thought) and that he would be there as soon as possible. They arrived at 8am. <br /> Since I needed to clean the unit, I was there the whole time they were there. They were thorough and only missed a few things that I needed to point out - which they quickly fixed. There was no rush. They took breaks and were completely done and out of the unit by no later than 5pm. <br /> I guess my biggest issue is why Ken would tell me it would take 2 - 2 1/2 days to complete the job when he must have known it would take a day. He also wasn't always good at returning phone calls in a timely manner. It added more stress than I certainly needed. <br />

It was a great experience for my first time hiring a painter. He shared tips about painting and paint. In addition I purchased a coupon 2 years ago and he honored it. Yay! <br />
