Steve, of Kara Painting, has been excellent right from the first quote, through the communication leading up to the scheduling of the job. We are really pleased with the quality of the work and will definitely have Steve return for further work at our home.

All hallways and vestbule - 3 floors

I was very happy with the job Steve did. He was patient when we needed to change my initial choice of colour. He arrived on time every day and cleaned up after he was done. The paint job looks great! I would highly recommend Kara painting!

Three room Condo Painting

Steve (Steve Karakostas) and his colleges at Kara painting were professional and friendly right from the start. Steve came to my condo and gave me a very reasonable flat rate quote. Kara Painting crew was always on time, tidy, and courteous. They also did the work quickly, but seemingly not at the expense of quality of the job. Steve meticulously removed electrical wall plates, door knobs etc before painting and covered them well. He left the condo without any drops of paint splatter. I had Steve to come and do the final coat of painting after the hardwood floor installation and he was very helpful and flexible - he had to repaint the whole trims all over again and he did a splendid job! At the end he labelled gave me touch up paints with a warranty for his job. I’m very satisfied, and highly recommended Steve and his team.

Basement and Upper Floor Painting

I don't know much about painting other than what little I've done myself. We needed most of our basement and upper bedrooms repainted in our townhouse a year ago, and Steve was extremely professional, cared for the smallest attention to detail and when the work was complete, we were awe-struck. The finish was clean and the job was done ahead of schedule and under budget. Steve and his team are simply the best painters I've ever known in Toronto.

Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Rely on the expertise of someone who knows what they're doing. It is much better than figuring it out on your own or fighting with your better half over it. That's why we counted on Steve and we were more than satisfied.

Major Home Reno and Stair Finishing

I shopped for a well-priced and exceptional painting team for painting of 5+ new rooms, 1 existing, 2 new/old hallways and refinishing of 3 flights of oak stairs. Of 4 interviews, Steve's price was great, manner was pleasant, response was wonderful. The work? I COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER! Amazing quality with attention to detail all around! Good work takes time and attention and Steve's team was focused on the end game which was quality. Thanks Steve, Costa and George. I'll call you when I redo the other rooms!

What could this company do to improve their services?
No other work is required by the company to improve service. Already a 10 in my books!
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Large projects take time, especially if it's a new addition. Ensure you have a painter which address all aspects to finishing: putting nail holes, touch-up plastering, sanding,priming, 2 finish coats. For stairs, I recommend at least 4-5 coats of urethane. That's what I did on my stairs and they look great!

Painting most of first floor and upper stairwell in 2000 sq foot 2 storey

Steve just completed an extensive job on our home which involved significant patching, priming and specialized products. Steve moved all the furntiture and took down switch plates,draperies and hardware etc...things most painters expect the homeowner to do. He left the house spotless each day. He replaced all hardware and furniture and rehung drapes. He was on time each day, friendly and courteous. He listened to what we wanted and was able to give advice when asked. The paint job itself was perfect.

Steve painted most of my condo three years ago and did a great job. When I renovated the kitchen and bathroom recently I asked him to return to do those two areas.

I am impressed by his professionalism, attitude and quality of painting and would recommend him to anyone.
