“Start to finish, very professional. From the website, to the fast response to my initial call, to being at the appointment when he said he would, and of course a great job on the painting, very pleased with this company. -very responsive to all my texts and phone calls, couldn't have asked for better. Of three bids, they were the best price. At the walk-thru, a small issue needed to be addressed, and they took care of it right away. We were looking for a licensed/insured company, and they are. Will use them again for the outside of the house.”

“We decided to update our kitchen cabinets with a sleek black finish, and I’m so glad we chose Brush & Pride Painting for the job. From the moment I contacted them, the team was incredibly friendly and responsive. They understood my vision and even offered suggestions to enhance the overall look.

On the day of the painting, the team arrived promptly and got to work immediately. They were so respectful of our space, taking great care to protect our floors and countertops. I was particularly impressed with their attention to detail and how they involved me in the process, making sure I was happy with the color and finish before proceeding. We definitely recommend them!”
