What People Are Saying About All-Service Painting...

Work Performed: Interior painting & drywall repair.

"We changed half of our rental's basement from paneling to Sheetrock. We hung the Sheetrock ourselves and All Service did everything else to finish the job. Taping, mudding, sanding, texturing, priming, and painting."

"Overall, it went very well. They showed up on the days they said they would be there, with the exception of one day. They laid down paper to catch most of the debris from the job and spent an extra day painting when the wrong color of paint came from the paint store. We are very pleased with the end result and the quality of the work. The price was very reasonable and they were willing to do such a small job."

Work Performed: Exterior painting and siding repair.

"We bought our home in August 2005. We got estimates and contracted with Allen in June 2006. They originally scheduled us for mid-September, but called to say they would be able to move us up in the schedule by almost four weeks. The paint was many years old. He and his crew burned off paint where necessary, removed and replaced some of the cedar boards on the west side of the home. Removed and replaced all the exterior fixtures (i.e., lights, doorbell, mailbox, house numbers). Removed the unsightly exterior wrought iron gate on the sliding glass door and rear window. Assisted in the paint selection for matching, as well."

"Alan is GREAT to work with. They started the job earlier than we had originally scheduled. They properly removed paint and primed and treated it. The crews showed up on time everyday. They kept the house and the property clean during the two week process. It took two weeks to complete the job because of the previously poor paint jobs; there was a great deal of prep to be done. We trust this company very much. We have gotten so many compliments on the painting. He uses quality paint and further recommended we use a satin finish that has worked out remarkably; it allows the sun to "dance" across the finish. We are beginning to work with him to do the interior of our home."

-Kim K., 3/12/07

Work Performed: Interior painting of entire interior and trim of two bedrooms, two bathrooms, livingroom, dining room, kitchen, hall, and entryway.

"Very professional job. Allen made some great color suggestions and really knows what he is doing."

-Elise F., 12/15/06

Work Performed: Interior painting of main floor, upstairs hallway and all woodwork.

"I am really happy with this company. They paid great attention to detail, and worked very hard to protect our property (hardwood floors and new carpeting). I would definitely hire them again."

-Konnie H., 11/13/06

Work Performed: Interior painting; preparation of surfaces and painting of all walls, ceilings & trim.

"They were very responsive when I contacted them and actually could do the work I needed done. They advised me on colors, what to paint, what-not, etc. The wood work included the repairing of the seams between the trim and the wall as well. They did a very good job in a short time and the result looks great."

-Rindert S., 10/2/06

Work Performed: Commercial Interior painting.

"This awesome company was hired to paint the ceiling and walls of our newly created restaurant. There was a lot of technical painting and hard to reach areas because of the industrial ceiling, wires, pipes, vents, ductwork, and framework from ceiling tiles that we kept (without the tiles). The ceiling required painting from all sorts of different angles and was over 16 feet high. Besides all the painting, Allen and his staff professionally cleaned, prepped, and primed everything that was going to be sprayed. PROFESSIONAL WORK for the best price in TOWN!! "

"Allen was the person that took the time to come out and look at our project even though he was pretty much booked. I literally gave him a day or two notice before I needed the painting done. He came out to the job site, explained everything he would be doing, and even made suggestions that gave us super results in the end. He gave us the best quote yet. Allen listens to your requests and then makes those requests happen. He is very friendly and personable. I will always use All Service painting as my first choice and I've already started telling my friends and associates!"

-Hythum I., 9/1/06

Work Performed: Interior painting

"We built our home years ago when the thing to do was keep everything WHITE! After doing some of the painting ourselves we hired All Service Painting to basically change the base color of our home. Allen's crew painted our 20 foot high entry, living Room, with 20 foot high ceilings, hallways, 2 staircases, the family room, living and dining room ceilings, and 2 powder rooms. They also touched up the ceiling lines in our basement (where we had painted) and repaired dings and scratches on all of the baseboard molding throughout the house, repainting or touching up where needed."

"Allen very promptly sent us a bid via email and also by mail. His crew started the job on schedule and were always prompt. The quality of their work was great. Particularly Byron, who was meticulous about his work and was also good about checking the work of the other painters on the job. They willingly touched-up areas that I was not 100% satisfied with and did a great job of cleaning up areas when the work was completed. Although the job took a bit longer than Allen anticipated, I never felt that the job was rushed or at any point did I feel that the quality of the painting suffered. Allen is committed to customer satisfaction and is willing to do what it takes to ensure that at the end of the job, you are completely happy with the work. We plan on doing some remodeling in two unfinished areas of our basement and will be hiring Allen to complete this job as well. "

Work Performed: Interior painting

"All Service painted three bedrooms (and installed/painted crown molding in one of the bedrooms), a hallway, dining room, living room, and family room. This included removing wallpaper and installing drywall on two walls. Allen was on time, provided several options for finishing the work and demonstrated what each option would do. The work was done within my timeframe and matched the price for an exceptional overall experience."

-Kim K., 6/22/06

Work Performed: Interior painting with prep and wall repair.

"Work was scheduled and completed promptly. Attention to detail and concern that I be satisfied continues to be excellent. I have used this company before and will again."

-Vonne W., 6/2/06

Work Performed: Interior and Exterior Painting.

"All Service used oil-based paint to paint the inside of three new window replacements and also painted the exterior of these three windows and window frame plus the front door frame (exterior latex). This work required extensive prep in order to fill in various nail and other cavities in the wood. The prep work with wood putty needed to be precise so that the new windows would seal properly and All Service did a great job. The interior paint work also needed to be consistent with other interior paint on other windows."

"All Service performed very well. They showed up on schedule, took their time to the proper job and cleaned up nicely. In order to allow for proper drying of first paint coat, the crew came back a second time, instead of hurrying the job. Allen Riffe (the owner) actually came and did all the prep work because it was complex due to age of house (1939) and to ensure that I would be happy with the final job - which I was."

-Ken B., 5/19/06

Work Performed: Interior painting of ceiling and wall accents in a Master bedroom.

"They were professional and very determined to please. They provided great work and performed it quickly. They had to reschedule painting day because of illness and on second appointment were late."

-Sue E., 3/28/06

Work Performed: Interior painting.

"All Service Painting came to my rescue. I had a painting job started in my living room that I was trying to do myself. I really botched the job and needed a professional."

"Allen was fantastic. I called him in a panic and told him what I had done. He absolutely came to my rescue, just when I needed a professional. I would hire him in a heart beat. He was very gracious and understanding. He spent time explaining what I had done wrong and helped me correct it. The repair job he did on my room is the best room in our house. It's better then I imagined it would be. I'll never use another painter."

- Glendora C., 3/19/06

"Allen and his crew performed an amazing transformation on this very old apartment unit that had been neglected/abused for some time. They were willing and able to start/complete the job according to my tight timeline. I really appreciated everyone's positive, can-do attitude, attention to details and concern about my being completely satisfied with their work. I was more than satisfied. I will certainly call them again. In fact, we have discussed the next project I'll need them to do. Their work was excellent, professional, and their prices are competitive."

-Vonnie W., 3/18/06

Work Performed: Interior painting.

"I hired All Service Painting to paint the entire interior of our home, which totals 2,136 square feet. They painted all of the interior walls and the kitchen ceiling."

"I was satisfied with the price as it was very competitive with the other bids I received. I was also very pleased with the quality and speed of the work. The entire house was painted within three days. The crew also did a great job patching holes and adding texture to the walls. In addition, the crew was careful not to get any paint on the woodwork throughout the house. Overall, I was very pleased and would hire these guys again."

-Colin A., 3/8/06

Work Performed: Drywall repair; tape, texture & painting of cracks..

"Allen was courteous, prompt and had a very high attention to detail. We would use All Service Painting again. Highly recommended."

-Tom D., 3/4/06

Work Performed: Interior and exterior painting.

"Allen and his crew painted the interior and exterior of a home we had just purchased. Inside was all walls, ceiling (some are very high) as well as repair some minor wall and ceiling damage (previously poorly done repairs). He even helped me hang some new ceiling fixtures. For the exterior, the addressed some mold issues as well as some closing a dog door and recaulking shingles."

"We were very pleased with his crew and their work. They would always show up when they said and got the job done quickly. I would definitely recommend them. In fact, we are using them to do a remodel on our kitchen."

-Kathy P., 2/21/06

Work Performed: Interior painting.

"Allen's team painted the entire interior of my home, including some cabinets, all walls, some ceiling space, etc."

"It was awesome - his guys were on time, thorough, and even found a trouble spot where I had some rot, and saved me a fortune by finding and addressing it early. I would recommend them without reservation. Absolutely fantastic. I plan to hire them to do the exterior this summer."

-Patrick S., 1/20/06

Work Performed: Interior painting of an entryway and stairwell in a two-story house.

"They responded very quickly to my quote request. I had a tight time-frame (over the holidays) to do the work and they were very quick and efficient. Their original quote was about $250 higher than other quotes I had received but they lowered the price to match the competition (who weren't able to get it done in time). The workers were nice, very quiet, and they did good work. Straight lines with no bleed, although they did spill a bit of paint (we weren't to worried -- and told them so -- as we are getting new carpets soon). They cleaned up well and had us go over everything before they left. As an additional courtesy they changed and cleaned all the high up lights. Overall, they did good work and I would use them again."

-Ben G., 12/30/05

Work Performed: Interior painting

"I had Allen and his crew paint my kitchen and family room before I put it on the market to sell. Allen was helpful in suggesting colors that are popular right now, which was a good selling feature. All Service painted the outside of my son and daughter-in-laws prior house; their new home; my daughters-in-laws parents' new home; my prior home; and Allen will be painting a home that I just recently purchased."

"My experience with Allen has been that he is always on time. His crews are polite, clean and hard working. He does a GREAT job and is VERY reasonably priced. The job was completed on time. He will be painting again for me as soon as I move into my new place. With so many painters 'out there' today, I feel fortunate to have found someone who is trustworthy and does a great job."

-Debbie W., 12/16/05

Work Performed: Interior painting with light drywall repair.

"The work included both crack repair and painting of all high walls on the first level of our house. The ceilings and moldings were not re-painted and we did not have matching paint for touch-ups so edges had to stop cleanly. This was especially tricky where one raised area meets a ceiling with a rounded corner. Both surfaces are textured but with different textures. We requested 2 coats of Devine paint (colors and finish specified by Devine color consultant)."

"All Service Painting did an extremely good job. They were professional during all phases of the job (estimate, quote, follow-up, work and walk-through). The work quality was excellent. All lines were straight and clean, even the tricky rounded ceiling corner. The work area was kept clean and then even wiped down unpainted surfaces at the end. The wall repairs are invisible. The work was done exactly when they said, and it took exactly how long they said. Overall a very, very good experience."

-Andy M., 12/15/05

Work Performed: Interior painting, light drywall repair, some plumbing repair.

"Allen bid and completed the job all in two days. I highly recommend him!"

-Laura P., 12/8/05

Work Performed: Interior painting of 100+ year-old historic home.

"We first used them for the exterior painting of our home, after seeing their work on another house in our neighborhood. Our home turned out excellent! We then used them for painting after a large remodel which turned out fantastic!"

"Allen Riffe's All-Service Painting company is great to work with! His employees do a wonderful job! Their price is reasonable! We would recommend them to anyone!"

-Donald F., 11/14/05

Work Performed: Remodeling work getting home ready for sale. Job involved high, difficult-to-reach ceilings, skylights, repair of rain damage in sheetrock, etc.

"Owner Allen Riffe is the best painting contractor we've ever found. We've owned Rentals for years and have had a lot of experience with all trades and recommend All-Service Painting for interior/exterior painting, repairs, etc. If you have a particular problem to solve or need advice, ask Allen for a recommendation. He has the experience to provide you with cost-effective option and will explain the pros and cons of each course of action. Allen's crews are polite, on-time and clean up after themselves. We have been very happy with the work that All-Service Painting has done for us and have hired them to do more."

-Michael P., 11/10/05

Work Performed: Interior painting, walls and trim of a vacant rental home.

"Contractor was available within a week, which is very important with an empty rental house. The job was done professionally, and the job site was left clean. We have used this contractor many times, and have always been very pleased with the work, and employees."

Dear Allen:

We would like to thank you and your crew for the splendid paint job that you did for us on the exterior and interior of our home. Your crew was most courtious and respectful to our needs and property.

Our family has enjoyed living in our Mount Tabor home for thirty-nine years. We appreciate your painting expertise and promptness in restoring our one-hundred and two-year old home to its original beauty.

We thank you, and would recommend ALL SERVICE PAINTING to anyone.

Dear Allen:

The care and attention to detail I received from All Service Painting was unparalleled. Not only did my condominium receive a much-needed face lift, but the workers uncovered a damaged area near a high window. Since they caught the problem early on, they were able to make a very inexpensive repair to what would otherwise been a costly surprise down the road. The staff also made terrific suggestions that enhanced the overall look, and led to a result beyond my expectations. I would recommend anyone call them first. They're the best!
