As part of our vetting process, we read a slew of rave reviews on various platforms for Russell Painting Company. Owner Eric Russell and his terrific team lived up to our high expectations in painting the exterior of our house. Eric was very professional prompt, courteous, communicative, and extremely knowledgeable throughout the process, from the initial quote to the inspection of the finished project. His crew worked fast but diligently, showing great attention to detail and an eagerness to please. In short, the price was fair, the process was painless, and our house looks rejuvenated

Russell painting company was very professional. We
hired them to do our interior ceilings and we were so impressed we also hired them to do our exterior painting of our house. Eric Russell was always available if we had any questions. The crew that came out to do our interior painting were very professional, very polite, and did a great job. When the crew came out to do the exterior we were happy to see it was the same crew. The wife and I will not hesitate to recommend Russell painting company, and if you have any doubts put them aside because this company is really good.

My wife and I hired Russell Painting Company to paint the exterior of our brick house, including trim and some doors (pictures attached). They also painted the garage (hardy board siding) and the garage doors. They were the only painting company in Indianapolis we could find who was willing to use Romabio products, which is a paint specifically designed for masonry.
Eric Russell came out personally for the quote and carefully explained what was in scope and out of scope of the work. His detailed estimate broke everything down, which we really appreciated. When work started a couple months later

We hired Russell Painting Company in August, 2020 for an interior project that included dry wall repair, ceiling repair and to paint walls in a cathedral ceiling living space. Russell exceeded our expectations in many quality related ways. Eric, the owner, provided a detailed quote that showed the cost for each task; there were no surprises on completion. The estimate was reasonable. The painting crew (2 persons on day one and four on day two) were outstanding. Olvin, the team leader, did a great job supervising the others and working hard himself. They carefully covered vulnerable areas such as
