As an interior designer, I've worked with quite a few painters, but my experience with General Painting was truly the best yet. We've worked together on several residential projects, and I've always been extremely satisfied with the smooth communication, the fair price, and especially the beautiful end result. They deliver top quality and work incredibly neatly, something the clients always appreciate. I can highly recommend General Painting!

I absolutely do not recommend General Painting for residential painting. Our experience with them has been downright disappointing and frustrating. The agreed-upon deadline has now passed four months ago, and the work is still not finished. Despite approving the plastering themselves before starting, the results are terrible, and they are now blaming the plasterer. The quote stated that everything would be neatly finished with three coats of paint, but only one or two were applied, which is clearly visible in the final result and is admitted by the painters themselves. They say they are constantly being pressured by their boss to do less and, above all, to do it quickly. The paintwork is covered in drips, blobs, holes, imperfections, and even bubbles. Upon inspection, the boss himself found it scandalous, but fixing it… And although agreements were made several times to complete the work, they let us down time and again by simply not showing up. This company previously only painted industrial projects like the hallways and restrooms in the sports center, where close-up details are less important, but they're extending that level of finish to a villa. Unfortunately, for residential projects, where quality and finish are essential, they don't deliver what they promise at all. They also damaged our new fixtures. Absolutely not recommended.

Worthless! Stay far away from General Painting! Our experience with General Painting was an absolute nightmare. This company absolutely deserves no place in the painting world, let alone in someone's home. We commissioned them to paint our new-build home, but what we got was amateurish bungling. There are streaks, paint splatters, and stains everywhere – the result is simply hideous. The managers of this company? Absolutely rude and totally uninterested in their customers or delivering quality. With every problem, they beat around the bush, refuse to engage in dialogue, and are way too busy with their hands in our wallets. Instead of the promised 3 coats of paint, we received only 1 (and even that was poorly applied!). General Painting is a disaster from start to finish – save yourself the frustration, time, and money and stay as far away from this shoddy company as possible!
