Exterior House Painting in Annandale, Virginia

Williams Professional Painting, Inc. BBB Business Review

How does exterior house painting compare to painting in the world of fine art? There are definitely some overlaps. Both of them take skill, knowledge, dedication, attention to detail, and experience. On the other hand, the master painters of the art world do have some undeniable skills that we don't see in residential painting. Still, is that a bad thing? After all, do we really want our house painters cutting off their own ears?!

When you choose a house painter for your Annandale home, you are not looking for a Degas or a da Vinci, but you do desire someone who is reliable, professional, and dedicated to excellence. How do you find such a house painter? Here are three tips for finding the best local painters in the Annandale area.

#1: Get Trusted Reviews

These days, most Annandale residents practically live online, so our first action in looking for a painting company is to ask Siri or Google. Digging just a little deeper, we can find lots of reviews, and this is a great place to start. Don't just look at the number of stars, however. Read reviews from actual customers. As you do, listen for voices that seem reasonable, and consider their experiences. You can find helpful reviews on Google, Yelp, Angie's List, HomeAdvisor, and many other sources.

Also, talk to your neighbors and friends here in the Annandale region. Find out what their experiences with painters have been like, and ask whom they would recommend. Nothing beats a personal referral!

#2: Compare Multiple Estimates

Once you have obtained a list of reputable Annandale exterior house painters, choose three or four to get a free estimate from. Do not judge the estimates just on the price. Rather, compare the details, to see what kind of value each painting company offers.

For example, look at the level of surface preparation, the number of coats of paint, the quality of the paint, and similar details. Generally, a painting company that does excellent work gives you the best value, even if they are not the cheapest.

#3: Compare the Professionalism

As you receive estimates for your exterior painting, consider the professionalism of each painting company. Do they arrive on time? Do they communicate proactively and politely? Do they have company vehicles and tidy uniforms? Is the estimate on company letterhead? Do they offer a guarantee on their work? Are they licensed and insured in Virginia?

All of these factors give you important clues as to the professionalism and reliability of your Annandale exterior painting company.

Thank You To All

Williams Professional Painting painted the exterior of our home, including wrought iron railings, and they did an excellent job! The foreman, Adalbarlt Ferrafino was VERY nice. The crew was on time, efficient and clean.

I would recommend them.

Thanks,

The Finished Job Is Excellent

Milton of Williams Painting contacted me quickly after I requested an estimate and arranged to come to my home. He answered all my questions, including giving me prompt follow-up answers to my additional email questions. That may sound routine, but it hasn't always been my experience with other companies.

Luis, Alberto and Jose were the men who worked on my home. The arrived very promptly on the day they'd promised, ready to work. At first it seemed that they were moving a little slowly, but that wasn't slowness. It was thoroughness in the prep work. They addressed all the cracks and nail pops they found. They fully repaired a couple of old bad drywall repairs, to the point that, even knowing where to look, I can see no evidence of the prior damage. I'd asked if the popped nails could be replaced by screws in the repair. Milton had assured me they could, and they did. They took that kind of care throughout. The finished job is excellent.

They were careful in moving and covering my furniture. They cleaned up every day. They were always pleasant to work with and to have in my home. Luis' last word to me as he left was a reminder of the warranty; to let them know if I found anything afterward and to assure me they will come back to address anything they might have missed. After my experience with them, I have no doubt they back up their work.

I'm completely happy with their work and would recommend this company. I will use Williams Painting again.

Kitchen Painting Alexandria, Virginia

Hi - I wanted to just let you know how impressed we were with Ricardo Salas and Cesar last week. They were here several days prepping and painting our pretty messed-up dining room and our kitchen. The kitchen color is a pretty intense red, and they did an awesome job getting a nice, consistent color. The prep in the dining room allowed them to get a really nice finish in there on the walls, ceiling and trim. They also power washed and stained our backyard fence which pretty much looks like new now.

They guys could not have been more timely, polite and professional. Ricardo made sure we were completely happy with the job, which we were. They arrived each morning before 7:30 so they would be ready to start right at 7:30 and they left our house very clean and put back together.

I would also like to say thank you to Lisa Reyes for her help to us on choosing colors. She was very patient and came out to our house twice on Saturday mornings to go over samples, including some that she had made to give us a better sense of the color on a larger chip. She also came out during the work to make sure everything was being done as we had discussed.

Friends have already commented on what a great job they did and I have recommended Williams Professional Painting for any painting needs they may have. As our needs arise for additional painting in the future, we will definitely call on you again! Thanks for the great job!

Williams Professional Painting

Williams Professional Painting soundproofed a room in my condo by installing a layer of Quietrock over existing drywall. My goal was to soundproof against surrounding sounds coming from any of the neighbors. With the soundproofing work done by Williams Professional Painting, this goal has been attained. Abel, Rene, and Nestor were the team that installed the walls, and Rick (the business owner) and Jose oversaw the project. The team were consummate professionals. They have a lot of experience with installing Quietrock EZ-Snap and Green Glue. This type of drywall install is intensive work that requires specific skill and experience; for example, Green Glue cures fast after application, so walls with Green Glue need to be put up right after glue application. Abel and team knew all the details and did everything perfectly, including not only the Quietrock EZ-Snap and Green Glue install, but also extensively sealing all seams with acoustical caulk (Green Glue Noiseproofing Sealant was used for this), extending the electrical/cable/phone outlets and switches and adding Quietputty around them, putting back floor trim perfectly, and adding door trims (which Abel and team made) around room closet doors to match new wall thickness. At the end, they painted the room and the ceiling. They did a great job, engineering-wise (the soundproofing works great), and aesthetically (the walls, corners, ceiling, outlets, etc. look perfect, you wouldn't guess that a second layer has been added over the original). The painting job was also great. In addition, they finished in the timeframe initially agreed upon, and were attentive and responsive (to my many questions) throughout the project. Their work produced minimal amount of dust (they are pros at cutting & handling drywall). They also left the place very clean. In conclusion, a great experience.

Williams Professional Painting

Hi Milton:

We were very happy with the work done by the crew. They were very careful and thorough. I appreciated that they made sure all the windows opened and locked after they finished. Bryan and Daniel (and Edwin earlier) were great! I've already recommended your company to two families - and will continue to do that if anyone's looking for this type of service. I also appreciated the way the office kept us informed as we went through all the delays due to rain.

Thank you very much for such good service!

Regards,

The workers were clean, professional and punctual.

Rick Williams came to go over the work and give an estimate. I was pleased to find they use only their own workers, no
contractors. Their workers are all either legal US citizens or have a green card. The workers were clean, professional and punctual. And every day before leaving they cleaned up ALL debris. I was very pleased with their work and workers.
Several neighbors have commented on what a good job they did and a neighbor has just come to my door to ask who
I used for the exterior painting - I was pleased recommend this company.


Alexandria, VA

Another great job done!

We had Williams paint the entire inside of the house back in 2010. That job was excellent. We were very apprehensive about having to move everything and the disruption, but the Williams crew made it as painless as possible. They even painted AFTER we had white carpet installed and not a drop touched the carpet!

So when it was time to get some outside work done, we naturally turned to Williams. This painting involved foundation, soffits, windows, porch, and staining the porch floor.

The crew (Jorge and Rodrigo, with Joyner the second day) were great. They were professional and courteous, showed up when expected, took great care when coming inside for the window work (white carpets!), worked efficiently, got the work done on the low side of the time estimate.

Williams is very good about scheduling work and keeping their schedule commitments. They are not "cheap painters" and you really get value for what you pay. Dave Williams and the office staff are easy to work with.

The quality of the painting looks great and we would definitely use Williams again.

In fact, our next door neighbor just talked to me about the company, having watched the crew at work, and will likely be in touch for some work next spring.

As we told the crew, they made the house beautiful.

Dear Williams family,

We needed an experienced company to paint the interior of our 2200 sq. ft. 1948 brick rambler. The walls and ceilings in the original part of the house are plaster on wood lathe. During its 65+ years, the walls and ceilings were showing cracks suffered from settling, earthquake, and a mediocre paint job done by someone else 10 years ago requiring more prep time than the 1990-91 addition (drywall and wallpaper to be removed).

Once we decided that we were ready to have the house painted, we began interviewing painting companies and chose Williams Professional Painting for reasons both tangible and intangible.

A work colleague had recommended them based on their results on the exterior painting of their home.

We attended a complimentary paint consultation seminar hosted at Williams’ plant. Attendees included real estate agents, previous clients, and potential new business opportunities like us. The class was conducted by an experienced painting and color design consultant.

The plant was clean, well-stocked, and well-organized with paints and paint samples, ladders, and drop clothes for pending jobs. It was there that we met the Williams family. We knew that we could trust this family to do the job right.

Rick, the owner’s son, inspected our home twice to gauge the amount and type of work required. He then decided which of his crews had the mix of skills required to perform the job. Our crew foreman was Jose G., and the team included Ricardo, Jaime, Jhoiner, Marvin, and Dagoberto.

They did all the big and little things right, such as the following:

The crew was punctual starting every day at 7:30 AM. They worked the entire day of the mid-January snow storm and appeared the day after that storm at the same 7:30 AM starting time. They worked the entire day breaking only for a brief lunch, which they ate on the premises. They concentrated on their tasks throughout the days. They took extra care protecting our belongings including babysitting the 2 dogs if they got out. They were conscientious when it came to keeping the outside gates closed so there would be no runaway dogs. They asked us clarifying questions if there ever was the possibility of doubt. There was never any sense that any of the valuables in the house were in any jeopardy. At the end of every day, they cleaned their tools and carefully vacuumed our rugs and floors. They left the house spotless. They organized, consolidated, and covered with a tarp all of their materials and equipment in a central area that was the least intrusive to our family and pets. They offered a touch-up visit if needed before we put the house up for sale in 2015.
The crew from Williams Professional Painting made the paint project as painless for us as possible. As we told the crew, they made the house beautiful. The repair s and preparation work were superb. They know their profession and are craftsmen. We thanked them very much, and told them that they made our home beautiful. No one could have done a better job than they did.

This is what we told them: Usted ha hecho mi casa realmente hermosa. Han echo un trabajo maravilloso. No podríamos haber pedido nada mejor.


Chris and Don Baron

Your team finished yesterday and did a wonderful job.

Your team finished yesterday and did a wonderful job. I spoke with someone on your staff yesterday and asked for the final invoice to be sent to this e-mail address which goes to my home. I will pay with a personal check to avoid your having to pay fees. I believe you had 3 folks on your team working here and I want to include in my letter some cash to give them.

I really enjoyed meeting with you on this job. I am totally delighted with the work and the Patio Room surround with the plastic wood protecting the bottom edge is both well done and eye-catchingly attractive.

Please pass on my 'well done' to your crew and take a lot of that 'well done' for yourself. You made me feel confident that you had the job well in hand which is just as essential as the actual performance of the work.

Regards,


Hugh McKay

Above and Beyond Our Expectations

The recent interior work on our house turned out wonderfully. Once again I have to commend Franklin and his team for their hard work, dedication, and attention to detail. Franklin impresses me every time we work with your company as he is particularly conscientious, hard-working, and pleasant. He went above and beyond our expectations and deserves accolades for his professionalism.

Thank you again for the excellent work. We will unhesitatingly recommend Williams Professional Painting to all of our friends and family.

A review for a foreman Juan Maldonado

This is in reference to Juan Maldonado's work at my home from 08/24 to 08/26. Juan was very polite, neat, and on - time, and he and his assistant Daniel did a very good job patching, caulking, and painting. I would use him again.

Sincerely,


B.F

I don’t know what I would do without your company and all its great people!

It was such a pleasure to have Franklin and Jorge back for another painting chapter chez Sugiyama/Ritts. They are terrific painters, impressive dry wall experts, remarkably efficient, and all-around wonderful people. Franklin was especially kind helping me pick another great color for a room. And they always leave the house in better condition than it was when they got here.

I don’t know what I would do without your company and all its great people!

Your painters have just completed painting our house and it looks beautiful!

Williams Professional Painting,

Your painters have just completed painting our house and it looks beautiful!

We feel fortunate that we selected you to do our painting. From the beginning all went well. Milton Chavez, your estimator, listened to our concerns and developed a contract that met our needs. During contract development, Milton was always readily available and even after painting began Milton would quickly respond to our questions.

Special thanks go to Ricardo Salas, the onsite foreman, and the crew that worked with him. We do want to recognize the good and careful painting that Noe performed and the pride of a job well done evidenced by both Noe and Ricardo. We are very satisfied with the work performed by Ricardo and his crew.

I Am Thrilled With The Result!

Jorge and Jaime did an excellent job. They were professional, polite, clean, organized, efficient, arrived on time, kept me informed on what they were doing, were considerate of my husband and me, and were extremely careful with our furniture, paintings, and decorative items. They obviously love their work, love working for Williams Professional Painting, and take great pride in a job well done. Because the previous painters had painted onto the baseboard in some areas, Jorge asked if I had the paint for the woodwork so he could correct that. The line where the wall meets the baseboard is now perfectly straight. They vacuumed and cleaned up two different times and I think my house was cleaner when they left than before. I am thrilled with the result!

I will be in touch with your office when I am ready to have the other bedroom painted.

Thank you so much, Dave, I really do appreciate how professional you are and the obvious pride you take in your work and your business. I take every opportunity to sing your praises.
