AB&C Painting has been in business for over 40 years. We do all aspects of Interior and Exterior painting. Pressure washing, Deck staining. You can check our web site for past and present projects. Our Company comes highly recommended. We never ask for any money until the job is finished and your satisfied. We have a Five Star Rating with BBB.
"Don't hesitate to use their services! We vetted four companies to paint the exterior of our home. At the time, our home was under repairs from an electrical fire last year. I met with Daniel, the owner and we walked the entire exterior of my property which included our 2400 sqft home and a detached two-car garage. Daniel's 40+ years of experience in the Painting business was very apparent as we discussed multiple issues of concern and how to appropriately resolve them without inflating the final bill. I went home that night bragging to my husband about how comfortable I was with Daniel's expertise, attention to detail, approach to educating the homeowner on how to address problems themselves, and his quiet, calming demeanor when describing the scope of work. After all bids were received, we chose Daniel and his team and I'm writing to tell everyone that my home has never looked better. Shortly before the project started, we had to address an unrelated issue with the workmanship of the Contractor hired by the Home Repair Contractor to paint the interior of our home. I called Daniel, asking if he could please make time to come by and evaluate the interior painting job. He came two days later and as we expected, he found that the "satin finish" paint used, exacerbated the poorly installed drywall and other repairs. This man hadn't even painted my house yet, but we were so comfortable with his knowledge and expertise, we asked him to help us fix our home. We were on a strict timeline, so Daniel put other projects on hold and agreed to make things right. His crew completed the interior prep-work and repairs, all while painting the exterior of the home. With weather permitting, his crew completed the entire project in the cold and sunny days of Mid-December and January. Robby was phenomenal! He had an uphill battle to fix someone else's mistakes, but he accepted the challenge, and superceded our expectations. We can't thank him enough for caring about his chosen craft. My home looks absolutely beautiful, inside and out! My neighbors continue to call and comment on the color and paint job. I would hire AB&C Painting again for any painting project. In a world where people think of themselves, this is one Painting Company that cares whether you're fully satisfied in the end, and also warranty their work. I will praise the awesome work Daniel, Robbie, and crew accomplished to anyone who will listen and made our home whole again. I Highly recommend their services!"

"The work that was preformed was horrible. This was new construction home and which we thought we hired this company and come to find out they sub contracted the work out. This was a total Sheetrock job. A lot of our personal property was used and damaged, none of the work was complete on 2 separate occasions, the owner was very disrespectful when we called him out on it,etc. I can’t explain everything we went through to get this job done properly. We had to hire someone else to complete the work. Keep in mind we live over 3 hours away and 2 separate trips the work was supposed to be complete. I would not recommend and be careful signing their contract and giving them your direct account information!! They will try and withdraw the money without your knowledge and claim they made attempts to collect which is incorrect!!"

"HORRIBLE CONTRACTORS!!! I have had contractors before and experienced some issues but this Anthony guy is very unprofessional and he is an absolutely nightmare! Not a single item was completed from the contract he and I agreed on and he took 60% of the contract amount and he stopped working the property. I had a property with some cosmetic work stuff and repairs which shouldn’t be that complicated. After he toured the property and gave me estimated time frame for 2 weeks. I know normally how it is not done with contractors so I asked him a few more times and confirmed if he could really finish it in two weeks. He was confident and said two weeks for no problem. After it has been almost 4 weeks, not even a quarter of work has been done and I noticed he didn’t even show up. He has so many excuses and complaints every single time when I contacted him. It felt like he was working for free which was not true. We agreed on 3 installment payments, 1st installment, before the job start about 30% of the total price, and 2nd one, 1/3 of the total price, and the last one at the completion of the job. After 2 weeks of work and not much of work has been done, he already requested for the 2nd installment. I asked him, the work has not been done 2/3 of the job, more over not even half way done. Anyway, he got upset and he wouldn’t continue the job if I didn’t pay. So I paid and then BOOM! He didn’t show up at work and when I asked him, his answer was it is too cold to work at the property. He made excuses and excuses and he said he will only come back if the heater is fixed. I did and texted him and called him. NO RESPONSE. Besides, his quality of work is horrible. He and his crew painted all over, light fixtures, light bulbs, floors, even bathtub. What kind of painter paint over the tub?! They simply didn’t even covered the parts not supposed to paint but they were so lazy and sloppy worker. They installed the brand new room doors, two out of three, didn’t even close properly and didn’t even use the shim. Installing the door is one of the basic carpentry job and he can’t even do that! I asked for the breakdown of the work and cost and no answer. When I confronted him for a few stuff, he just blah blah blah and repeating himself by making endless nonsense and not doing the job at all. Even if he does a job, not a good quality one."

Refinishing, reglazing, and resurfacing a bathtub all refer to the same process of restoring your tub's surface to improve its appearance and extend its lifespan. However, reglazing refers to the final step of applying new coating, and resurfacing is the repair and new surface application. Installing a liner, however, is a separate process that involves fitting a custom-made shell over your existing tub.
Refinishing a bathtub is worth it if your current tub is structurally sound but has surface imperfections. Refinishing can remove scratches, stains, and fill in small cracks, giving your tub a fresh look at a fraction of the cost of replacement. It can save you around $3,000 compared to installing a new bathtub. However, if your tub has severe damage, large cracks, or leaks, replacing it may be the better option.
With proper care and maintenance, a bathtub reglazing can last up to 15 years. To preserve the new finish, regularly clean the tub with non-abrasive cleaners and avoid harsh chemicals. The longevity also depends on the quality of the workmanship and materials used during the refinishing process. By following these tips, you can enjoy your refreshed bathtub for many years.
Professionals take about two to four hours to refinish a bathtub. Afterward, the new surface needs 24 to 48 hours to cure before you can use the tub. Proper ventilation during this time is crucial to ensure the finish sets correctly. In total, you should plan for the process to take up to three days.
Wait between 48 and 72 hours before using a refinished bathtub to allow the new surface to cure fully. Some modern curing processes can reduce this time to as little as 24 hours. High humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying time, so maintaining a stable environment is important. Using the tub too soon may damage the finish, so patience ensures a long-lasting result.
You should consider refinishing your bathtub if you notice rust stains, chips, cracks, or persistent discoloration that regular cleaning can't remove. If the surface is worn or feels rough, or there are small imperfections affecting its appearance, refinishing can restore its original beauty. Refinishing is ideal when the tub is structurally sound but needs cosmetic improvements.
