Dave L from Ottawa

This was the second time we hired Clayton and Kelly to paint for us and, like the first time, we were not disappointed. They are very skilled painters and they do tremendous work in very little time. They communicate better than any contractors in the Ottawa (we have a 16 email chain to prove it) with lengthy descriptions and a detailed Excel estimate/work plan. We will be hiring them again in spring 2016 for some exterior painting when the weather returns to being nice. If you need painting done and you live in Ottawa, there's no better company to hire.

I hired Andrew back in June (my apologies for the very slow review) and he did a fantastic job on the 2nd story eavestrough that was clogged with leafs from large mature trees. He walked through every part of the job and presented different options with different costs and gave zero pressure to choose the most expensive. He took pictures of his work before and after to demonstrate the exact results since we will never be on our 2nd storey roof. Would most certainly recommend him to anyone in Ottawa and will hire again if needed.

My wife and I were looking to have several rooms in our home re-painted to remove colours chosen by a previous owner. These rooms had various degrees of drywall patching that needed to be done as well. We interviewed four painting companies in Ottawa, all of which seemed very nice and offered competitive quotes. We chose Clayton & Kelly (A Cut Above Painting) because they took a great deal of time explaining their method, the materials they would use, their clean up process and they gave us a detailed Excel spreadsheet quote describing each step of the project. Their price was very competitive as well. They gave off a very positive and energetic vibe when we met them and this carried on throughout the project. As for the project and work itself, their painting was precise with even coverage and sharp cut lines. They did a very good job on drywall patching some challenging areas where there were multiple holes created by old A/V and speaker wire panels from the 1980s. They were happy to do additional work that we requested during the project that was not part of the original quote. They gave us daily feedback emails with lengthy room-by-room descriptions of work completed and work outstanding. These emails were written with unusually high quality for a contractor (no offense to other contractors, but spelling and punctuation is often not their strong suit). After all, we were extremely satisfied with the results and we did not give 1 penny before the project was complete and they personally gave us a tour through every room. We will most certainly re-hire A Cut Above Painting in the future and would recommend them highly.
