Reviews of The City Painters (Painter)

Talia Pankewycz

John, Matt, and the rest of their team were amazing to work with. Everyone I talked with was patient and took the time to answer my (many) questions. When we settled on work to be done I felt like I was making the best choice. They were very responsive both by phone and by email. On the day-of they arrived on time (actually, a little early!) and started right away. I'm thrilled with the work the painters did - it looks great.

We chose 19 different colours for our new office in downtown Toronto and very happy with the results! Completed in just a few days for a large office with 16 individual offices (each a different colour). Great job!

Great customer service! John was very kind and helpful through the whole process and his team was extremely professional. They did a great job!

I was blown away with how amazing their work is. I have seen their other work but never did I expect this level of perfection. I highly recommend them for any job!!!

I thought I could paint two rooms in my condo myself before the furniture arrived. When the delivery date was moved up, I had a short timetable. Mathew and John were quick to turn around an estimate and could schedule a one-day job within my timetable. They fixed problem areas neatly, and did a great job. I'm very pleased and hope to work with them again (after some other renovations).

We have used The City Painters on multiple occasions while renovating our entire house. Throughout what can be a stressful process, Matthew was a consummate professional and his positive attitude and customer first approach meant an exceptional painting job was completed.From the beginning, he was very effective at giving advice related to interior wall repairs and painting and this immeasurably assisted our decision making. He was also very flexible, which greatly aided in scheduling work on the house. His expertise and frankly, passion meant that any sign of renovations, whether on existing plaster walls or new drywall are non-existent. Additionally, he was always conscientious in cleaning up and seeking feedback throughout the project. The City Painters has also worked on smaller projects for us, including re-painting our bathroom, ceiling included. Invariably these projects are completed with the same promptness and attention to detail as the large projects. Matthew was a pleasure to work with and we would recommend him without reservation to anyone and everyone, business or home.

My go to painters in Toronto. I've recently moved to a new space in the downtown core and hired City Painters to do my interior painting done for me. Their service was impeccable and their rates was convenient within my budget range. I'm planning to get a new coat for my bedrooms this summer but with my tight schedule, I'm thinking of giving these guys a call once more..

Matthew Glowacki

Great, efficient team of really nice people and very competitive prices. Highly recommended!

I used the City Painters on a recent renovation to my house and these guys were great! They were very professional and efficient. They listened when I pointed out some small details that I wanted and they followed through. It's hard to find that these days! I would definitely recommend the City Painters to anyone who is looking to spruce up their home, office etc.

Jon Edwards

Exceptional work and service. The team went above and beyond to fix various drywall holes/cracks and left our office in a very clean manner.

We were in a bind and contacted Matthew. He squeezed us in and had our 3 bedroom condo painted in one day, the very next day! They were professional, meticulous and got the job done right! Very happy with their work and look forward to having them come paint our new home!

My experience with the City Painters was beyond exceptional. From the very beginning I could tell that there was something special about Matthew. The level of costumer care was incomparable. I was well advised, and re-assured by the level of knowledge and care demonstrated. The attention to detail, quality of work, and efficiency was second-to-none. The City Painters were very flexible and acknowledged and addressed all of my concerns. I believe that the form and fashion of the services provided proved to smooth the transition. Without any hesitation I'd recommend The City Painters, and definitely would hire them for any other needs that I may have. Excellent work!

Quality and detail is what I look for in a paint job, City Painters deliver on quality and detail!

I hired City Painters a couple of months back. I dealt with Matthew who was very professional and a pleasure to deal with. I got them to paint my 1800 sq foot house. They showed up on time each day and were done within a weekend. I had scratches and dents on my wall caused by my dog and they took care of that no problem as well. The finished product was amazing. The colour has stayed true till this day and there have been no problems what so ever. I get a lot of compliments on the job done as well as the colour. If you're looking for a painter, I would give City Painters a try. Fair priced and efficient.

Contacted City Painters because of their Homestars rating and selected them based on cost and availability - would not select them again. They quoted based on pictures we sent them and before confirming colour selections or clarifying what was included/excluded from the scope of work. We had asked in our email for a quote that included the painting of all walls and ceilings. When they arrived they said columns in the walls as well as a partial wall below our windows were considered trim and not walls. They proceeded to paint the columns without checking with us regarding any additional cost and then said there would be an additional cost for the work completed. We had dark walls which we wanted to be painted white but they only quoted for two coats of paint. I would have expected experienced painters to know that white paint would not cover dark colours well and quote based on additional coats that might be required. Instead, they applied additional coats of paint without indicating any additional charges and then said there would be an additional charge after the fact. Overall quality wasn't great. Poor cutting in, brush streaks, missed parts of the ceiling all left us with additional work to do once they left. Several walls needed additional coats of paint (which they were happy to charge for) that we did ourselves as we were not going to pay them more for misquoting the job. Despite being told we had 12 ft ceilings they showed up without a ladder to reach the ceilings. Their paint selection isn't great, using a contractor grade paint that is meant for new walls.

After hiring a painter who made a disaster of painting the popcorn ceiling in son's condo, we soon realized we needed a professional to 'fix' the problems created. Enter John Fry, Operations Manager at The City Painters and his amazing plasterer Nick and painters Gina and Dave. From the initial phone call until the job was done, John monitored progress of the job throughout. He updated us regularly about the days and time his people would arrive and the work that would be done. What an absolute delight to deal with a company who say what they will do and follow through accordingly. John's frequent communications left us feeling the job was in good hands and we would be more than satisfied with the end result. Which we were. We extended the job from not only the ceiling but also the walls and closets. Our son was on a tight budget and John worked with us to keep costs under control by suggesting areas we could tackle ourselves. A job that started out with another painter from another company who did a terrible job, has turned out to be an amazing transformation by The City Painters. I would highly recommend The City Painters. They do excellent work at a fair price.

Top notch! Nothing but professional from the moment I contacted them to the end of the job. I dealt with Matt and John and they were always there to answer any questions I had. My place looks completely different and I feel like I live in a new house now. Amazing job! Thanks so much!

When I first contacted The City Painters, the only thing I had sought out was an estimate for my main hallway. Before I knew it, I found that they had quickly gained my trust and were well on their way to completely retouching the rest of my home. They were tenacious, professional, skillful, and incredibly personable people. What set them apart to me from other painting operations on top of their work was their knack for explaining things that mattered to my family. These were questions we had ranging from colour concepts, protocol, and even to the techniques they were using. They were a portrait of what quality work should look like and an even better example of how to form a lasting business relationship. The time and care they put into making sure my family and I were pleased has not gone unnoticed as we have long since put forth their names anytime we've been asked if we know of any great painters. For what it's worth, I think they're very capable of tackling any job it is that you may have in mind. Why not give them a try?

Thank you to The City Painters and the gentleman that tirelessly completed our project, Samim and Gurvi!!! We had a big job as our new home is full of tall ceilings. Samim and Gurvi brilliantly completed our project with perfection. Not only do they do great work, but they were always on time, focused on completion, and brought a great aura and energy to our home. They were professional, friendly, and there was very little interference with our move and family while they were here. Thank you Samim and Gurvi for everything you did for us and we HIGHLY recommend The City Painters!!!!! We greatly appreciate your hard work!

In the next month I will be putting my house up for sale and as a professional home stager I know the importance of a fresh coat of paint. I decided to hire the city painters who was recommended to me from a friend. Hands down they did an amazing job.I was very impressed with the efficiency and overall result. I'll be referring them to all my clients that are in need of a fresh coat of paint : ) Stage By Design, Dana Elarte

City Painters did an amazing job. Everything looks professional and clean. Everyone who comes in always mentions how good the paint job looks. Good job guys!

Mikhail And Wife

Very good job and friendly owner. They completed the job in only 1 day for my 2 bedroom condo. I highly recommend!

I contacted City Painters about a job for a rental property we own remotely (we live in Vancouver and rent out a property in downtown Toronto). Matt and his team were extremely helpful and responsive, and while the job turned out to be much bigger than first expected (we ended up hiring a contractor to rip and replace two windowsills), Matt and his team were supportive and helped to advise us on the situation along the way. I will 100% go back to City Painters for our next job. Thank you!
