They painted our kitchen and rolled with some changes. Paul did a wonderful job with our wallpaper. I really like Paul Schmidt and his staff.

Painted two bathrooms. Excellent work. They have been doing work for our condominium association for years, so we expected the same high quality work that they’ve always done. We were not disappointed.

We just bought a house with a horrible color scheme and old wallpaper in two stairwells. My mother recommended Paul Schmidt to me whom she had worked with a couple times. He came to my house and took lots of notes on the work I needed done and I received a quote in the mail 3 days later. The price seemed extremely fair for all the work we were having done. So we signed the quote and sent it back w… Read more

We are very, very pleased with the job. I’ll hire them back in a minute. I’ve recommended them to at least 3 friends already. They do a good job. Extremely professional, neat, great attention to detail and they clean as they go… I was presented with easily understood, clear & detailed proposals & change orders. They were pleasant to deal with. They started the job and finished right when they said… Read more

We had a very high foyer in our home and typically do all painting ourselves. Looking at the task at hand we decided it was best to hire out. Schmidt & Co came out and gave us a free estimate and came back a few days later to complete the job. Our foyer and hall was beautifully painted within 6 hours – which would have taken us days. We could not be happier with the promptness and the completed pr… Read more

How To Pick A Painting Contractor

There’s no getting around it. Good painters don’t come cheap. Almost any painter will charge as much to cover two or three rooms as you’d pay for a new computer or flat screen tv… and if the job isn’t right, unlike a new computer, you can’t take it back to the store!

Before you spend your money, spend some time finding out exactly what a painter will give you.

…. whether he’ll repair blistering paint on window sills, and peeling paint in the bathroom.

….whether he’ll wash dirty and greasy walls before he paints.

….whether he’ll remove door knobs, fixtures and light switch covers rather than painting around them.

….whether he’ll use Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams paints.

….whether he’ll put everything in writing.

If he’s SCHMIDT & CO., he’ll do all of these things. He’ll do them all so well that over the next few years you’ll worry about other problems… like how to pick a plumber!
