Exterior House Painting in Arlington, Virginia

Williams Professional Painting, Inc. BBB Business Review

What is a home? We all know that it is more than a roof and four walls, a place to eat and sleep out of the weather. Home is far deeper than that, giving us a sense of belonging and warmth, a place of shelter and relationship. For many of us here in Arlington, our home is even a part of our identity, a part of what makes us unique. That is why your home’s exterior painting deserves special care!

Exterior house painting is an exciting process because it allows us to shape our surroundings and craft our home to fit those who live there. It is also a wise investment, because exterior painting provides vital protection for the integrity and longevity of your house.

Choosing an Exterior House Painter in Arlington

When you are considering an exterior painting project in Alexandria, Virginia, you want to make sure you are getting a true professional. What are some of the characteristics you should look for?

Communication: All of the communication you receive from your house painter should be marked by proactive helpfulness, thoughtfulness, and professionalism. 

Legal Legitimacy: Never work with a painting contractor that is not properly licensed to work in your area. Also, ask about their liability insurance and worker’s compensation insurance.

Reputation: Talk to your friends and neighbors here in Arlington to find out who has performed the exterior painting on their houses, and whether or not they recommend those painting companies. Also, look at online reviews on Google, Facebook, Yelp, Angie’s List, HomeAdvisor, or other trustworthy review sites.

Estimate: If an Arlington house painting company offers a free estimate, there is no harm in taking them up on it! It gives you a great chance to get to know the company to see if they are a good fit. When you get the estimate, look for the details: how many coats of paint? What level of paint quality? How much surface preparation? What is included or excluded? Don’t go with a painting company that has sloppy or vague estimates.

Longevity: Small painting companies pop up and disappear with surprising rapidity. While a new painter is not necessarily bad, a well-established painter gives you peace of mind. If your house painter has been in business for many decades, it is probably because they have good service and a high level of commitment to the community. They are much more likely to stand behind their work.

Ricardo and his team were all that I expected from Williams PP

We had Williams PP back to paint a bedroom that had been treated roughly for over 10 years. Ricardo and his team were all that I expected from Williams PP: timely, professional, and courteous. The room is gorgeous! Thanks for another quality job done beautifully and efficiently.

Response: Thank you for the review. Glad you were happy and we look forward to working with you again in the future

Williams did it again!

Williams did it again! Walter and Andres rescued my house from disaster...not really but it sure felt like it! Our bedroom was painted, deck re-stained, lots of odds and ends type of painting projects that I had collected over time. Two days of work and now a lifetime of beauty! You are the best! I am president of Walter's fan club! I had to give him a hug I was so glad to see him and Andres! He brought his magic wand with him and worked wonders. Many Many 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.

My painting was just completed today. I wanted to let you know that the estimator was very prompt, friendly and professional. I also wanted to let you know that the painters, with my Foreman Santos Benitez, were also very prompt, professional, friendly, courteous, clean and did a very good job. I would recommend your company to any of my friends.

Exterior Painting - Manassas, Virginia

Hello Lisa,

Carlos did an excellent job. Robert (?) too. The colors, in real life look real nice. The sassy green is very cool...it helps to add a little extra "look" to this area....reminds me of being in Miami!

I'm glad Carlos did the painting by hand instead of spraying (except for porch rafters). His judgement is appreciated.

Now I have my own work to do to finish the porch old cedar planks. I like how that part will look when all done.

I see several cans of paint left over - Thanks. Some red and some green..deck sealer too. I can just take the color codes for the porch floor (Bungalow) and the white (Alabaster) to the paint store for more right? I will use more in some places as I finish my remaining projects.

Thanks again too for your assistance - it made the process more fun.

Regards,

Hi,

Ricardo Salas painted our outdoor spiral staircase. He did an outstanding job. Ricardo always showed up before scheduled time ready and eager to start work. He had a “can do” attitude and was extremely thorough making sure that everything was perfectly done. He was very pleasant and professional at all times. He is a pleasure to work with and he is an excellent representative of the outstanding caliber of professionals that your company employs. Ricardo did an superb job and my husband and I cannot be more pleased with his work. Our staircase is now beautiful thanks to Richardo!

Exterior Carpentry And Painting In Alexandria, VA.

Juan recently did carpentry and painting work for me for the over-hang above my front door. Rain had rotted the top of the over-hang. When Juan started the job, he realized it was rotten to a much greater extent than had been planned.

He had to completely redo the top of the over-hang and take off a facade above it.

He was thorough, courteous, timely, and overall a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend your company to my neighbors because Juan did such a fabulous job.

Thank you,

M.L

Dago and his team work as if they were the owners of the company!

Dear Milton:

Your employees just left my house a few minutes ago after completing the second phase of our project. Once again we want to express our appreciation for the excellent job service performed by Dago, Jorge, and Rodrigo. My husband and I continue to be highly impressed by their expertise, dedication to their work, and deep sense of responsibility. Dago and his team work as if they were the owners of the company. They portrait at all times such professionalism, gracious and pleasant disposition, professional demeanor, and willingness to do a job well done.

It has been a real pleasure for us to have them working at our house. We know for sure that your company wouldn’t be as successful as it is without your superb employees. They represent Williams Professional Painting with the highest standards.These kind of superb employees are very difficult to find.

Thank you again Dago, Jorge, and Rodrigo. Please know how much we have appreciated your hard work and what a pleasure it has been to have you in our house. You have done an excellent job and we are very satisfied with the results.

To everyone at Williams Professional Painting, and most especially to you, Milton, please accept our best wishes for the successful continuation of your work.

Most sincerely,

An Exterior Painting Project

I had Ricardo, Salas and Cesar plus a couple of other guys work on my son's house. They did an excellent job and worked very hard throughout the project. The foreman(Ricardo, I think) kept me abreast of the progress throughout while I was at the house. The paint job is excellent.

Jose and I did not communicate well during the estimation process. The estimate that I received was not the total amount (excluding additional carpentry work needed) I expected it to be. I was shocked when I saw the final bill. The terms of agreement also showed that I would receive two coats and I did not. I was told that was only true for the pvc boards and door, that the paint was so good in covering that I did not need two coats. When I asked the foreman(Ricardo, I think) about painting the mullions he said they normally do not do those. I told him to call Jose and Jose confirmed that they would be done. So, the job was excellent but the estimation process did not go well. I'm sorry about this because Jose is a very nice guy and I enjoyed working with him, and he was concerned and respectful. I was told that Williams would replace two facial boards that go on the roof area free of cost. Thank you very much.

Overall, what is most important is that you did a great job and treated me respectfully and the job diligently. I hope the same can be said for me.

Please take special note that all the painters on my job worked hard and diligently throughout.

Thank you.

I do want to mention that we were exceptionally impressed by Juan Maldinado

Milton,

The project was completed today. As you know, this isn't the first time we have used WPP and we had every reason to expect that we would be satisfied with your work. I do want to mention that we were exceptionally impressed by Juan Maldinado as the foreman on the project. This job was executed flawlessly from a quality perspective and also very quickly. Mr. Maldinado kept me apprised of what they would be doing next so that my wife and I could shift from one bedroom/bathroom to another when necessary and took care of all the necessary details of moving furniture or whatever needed to be done. We are accustomed to good work from Williams, but I think that Juan is exceptional even by your high standards. Thank you for a job well done.

A Review for Williams Professional Painting

I'm happy with the job and appreciate the professionalism of all involved.

Absolutely Outstanding

They did an absolutely outstanding job. From the first day they came out here to look at what needed to be done, Rick Williams explained everything to me. He quoted a price to have the exterior of my home painted. He said they'd also do my mailbox, a shed, the post of a railing, as well as the shutters. They did everything. The two individuals who worked on the house, Luis and Jorge, were superb. They were so professional and always turned up on time. They were very clean. I never knew they were even here with how clean they were. Whenever I had any questions and needed to call, Rick answered or got back to me as quickly as possible. They're attitudes were lovely. I don't give high remarks to anyone that doesn't deserve it, but I can't speak highly enough about Williams Professional Painting.

Dear Rick,

Thank you so much for standing behind your company and replacing a door in the back of my garage. Gustavo was very pleasant to work with and seemed to have a good knowledge of what was needed to make my door work and appear as it should.

Thanks,

Your employees are absolutely superb!!

Dear Milton:

I hope this email finds you well and that you are recovering from the nasty flu.

Joe and I would like to express our appreciation for the excellent service we received from Williams Professional Painting for the paint job at our residence that started last Monday and it was completed today.

Your employees are absolutely superb!! We certainly appreciated their knowledge, dedication, and hard work. Their efforts to finish the job today went beyond the call of duty. Despite the fact that they started very late today due to my medical appointment, they were determined to finish today and they did, even though they had to work until 7 pm in the evening.

We were highly impressed by their expertise, deep sense of responsibility, and dedication to their work. Despite having to work during one of the coldest week of the season and having to go back and forth to their truck to get stuff, they portrayed at all times a very gracious and pleasant disposition, professional demeanor, and willingness to do a job well done. How very lucky Williams Professional Painting is to count Dagoberto and Eliazar as members of the staff. Employees of their caliber are very difficult to find. They delivered a service for us in a way that one only expects from truly professional people.

Milton, please share with them this letter and please convey to them once again our appreciation.

Thank you again Dago and Eliazar. We want you to know how much we appreciated your hard work. You are truly remarkable. Your dedication to your work is admirable, and your sense of responsibility is very commendable.

To everybody at Williams Professional Painting, please accept our very best wishes for the successful continuation of your work.

Most sincerely,

Alberto and Omar did a wonderful job painting my kitchen

Just to let you know that Alberto and Omar did a wonderful job painting my kitchen. It looks really beautiful. They were totally professional and extremely pleasant and I appreciate the fact that you sent Omar to help after the mix-up regarding scheduling this job. Thanks again for your help and I'll be in touch regarding some work to do in the basement.

The cleanup after completion of the job was also impressive.

I wanted to commend Williams Professional Painting (WPP) for the excellent performance on my recent painting job. WPP lived up to its high recommendations. It was a pleasure working with WPP -- from the schedulers, the estimator who came to preview the job, and Walter Osegueda and his partner who performed the work. Every step was handled efficiently and as promised. The crew arrived on time and completed the job -- which involved plaster repair in an older home in addition to painting -- earlier than expected. Everything was done exactly as I requested. The cleanup after completion of the job was also impressive. I am very pleased with my newly painted rooms, and would definitely call WPP for another painting job.

Thank you!
