Dear Chris,

I cannot tell you enough how it was a great opportunity meeting you and working with you. The most important thing that stood out with Chris' was his INCREDIBLE work ethic. He is incredibly meticulous and goes above and beyond all other painters that I have spoken to and worked with in the past.

He speaks of painting with so much passion and pride. It is very rare to meet individuals who are so driven to exceed his customers' expectations.

He pays so much attention to detail and is more than willing to explain these details to his customers. With this knowledge, you learn to better appreciate his work and compare his "high quality" painting job to others.

Not only is Chris a top notch painter, he is also a terrific person! He is one of the most genuine & nicest individuals I have ever met. When my fiancee and I purchase our next home, Chris is certainly to be the first and only person I would consider for the job. He is the best at what he does, hands down!

All the best!

Posted: 2005-11-07 00:03:31 I would Like to take this opportunity to thank Chris for the awesome job he did on the interior of our log home. Even though he finished almost two years ago we still speak of his work ethic and attention to detail. We enjoyed his passionate explanations for his perfectionism, and learned a great deal about wood finishing in the process. It was a pleasure to work with you on this project and It has been a pleasure living with the end result, very easy to clean and standing up well to the daily onslaught of our kids and pets. Thanks again and we are looking forward to having you finish the outside of our house in the near future. Ootsa Lake, BC

Dear Chris,

I'm so glad I chose you to paint my place! You were definitely the most detail conscious painter I've ever hired. Actually, the word painter seems like the wrong descriptive... you're more of an artist.

Thank you for going way beyond what your quote included. Even though the baseboards weren't supposed to be painted, thank you for your final act of service when you said, "Lori, if you run the vacuum around the edge of the floor, I'll do the baseboards for you!" That's a perfect example of your amazing work ethic and your pride in a job well done. Most painters would never go that extra mile. And the bathroom wall where I tore off the shelving unit looks pristine and the painted cupboards look beautiful. Again, you went way beyond what we agreed upon.

Thank you, thank you. I'm sure you've increased the value of my home immensely. Plus, you were just fun to have around. I hope you're in the business a long time... I'd love to hire you for my next house!

Warm regards,

A real professional! Truly has high standards in every aspect of his work and actually does what he says he will do. He's also not afraid to tell you what is less than standard....and explains why. We had never been involved with a log home before and with the limited homework we had done in the "finishing" area we were just plain lucky that we were able to find Chris and rely on his expertise and advice throughout the project. He went the extra mile in researching areas that were of concern and in the end recommended the best solution. Clearly can't say enough about how happy we are with the result and I also know that he will be there to help us in the future. He knows the products and best application techniques. You simply will make your best decision by selecting Chris to do your job. Francois Lake, BC

I am so happy with Chris' work!! The finished logs are gorgeous and perfect; they feel so nice and smooth. It was a pleasure to have him work on my home. I was very impressed by his knowledge and skill. He carries such a positive and enthusiastic attitude. You can see how passionate he is about his profession. I would highly recommend his intricate work to any home owner. If only all contractors could be such a pleasure. Thank you Chris!! Tchesinkut Lake, BC

Chris has just completed the interior painting of our home. His commitment to excellence is the sign of a true professional. His colour sense was very helpful and he takes great pride in his workmanship which has resulted in a beautifully finished job.
We can recommend Chris without any reservations.

Chris was extremely helpful in selecting appropriate colours and an excellent quality paint at Contours, our fitness centre. We are so proud of the end product! Chris did a meticulous job and sparked great feedback from our members. We highly recommend PAINTING Guys and look forward to future jobs on our home!

Dear Chris:

We just want to thank you so much for your superb paint job that you completed in the interior of our home. We have had various painters over the years do work for us, and no one has even come close to the professional work that you demonstrated. Your ceiling/wall interface is flawless; the walls are smooth due to your meticulous preparation work;
there was no paint splashed on cupboards or floors; the various colours and designs requested by our daughters for their rooms were brushed and rolled like an artist. You offered wonderful painting/colour/paint brand suggestions, without being too pushy. You were consistently punctual and delivered what you promised! What more can we say - You are a real pro with a pleasant personality and an accommodating smile! We will be calling you again and will highly recommend you to others! Already people have asked us, "Who did your excellent paint job?"

Gratefully yours,
Dr. Dale Best
