I hired Prep Smart to paint the exterior of a house I was selling. They provided a mid-priced estimate based on others received. Communication was easy and the crew was professional and courteous. The job was done in a timely fashion. I will be using them again in the future I'm sure.

Highly recommend!! Had my cabinets painted recently and could not be happier. From the time of the estimate to the day of completion, the communication was excellent and the work product was outstanding.

It was a very big job that needed to be done right after Christmas and into the first week of the new year, they finished on time and my condo came out amazing. Every inch of the place was painted walls (20 ft high), trim, every door was painted black and my kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanity were also painted. They worked tirelessly to complete the job on time and they did just that. After moving in we found a few issues here and there but Ramsey and his team were very quick to resolve them for us. My condo looks amazing. They completely transformed my condo in just 5-6 days. The part that blew

They were very professional and clean! They came in, gave us a quote and started when they said they were going to! The hallway was in bad shape and they finished it and it looks almost brand new! They were very cordial and kept us right up with what was going on and the timeline! Definitely recommend them!
