Ray’s Quality Painting

Outstanding work and service. I had a drywall repair and painting done. The price was very competitive. Ray and his crew are easy to work with and they make sure you are satisfied. They were good about cleaning up at the end of the project. All in all, a pleasure to work with them. I definitely plan to use them in the future.

This is a long overdue review. We used Ray and his crew to paint 1 floor of my duplex rentals last Fall and I have to say, he did such a great job, was responsive, easy to work with, was reasonably priced so much that we hired him again to paint the other floor of the duplex, and left the place clean. We will definitely call him again when I need another job done.

I cannot say enough great things about our experience with Ray. He was responsive, personable, detail-​oriented, highly professional, and very reasonably priced. He painted three rooms on our second floor. Initial time estimate was a day and a half, but he finished it in only one day. My wife and I were completely satisfied with both the final product as well as our experience with Ray and his team. We would absolutely work with him again.

Ray and his team did a phenomenal job painting and repairing dry wall in our condo. Their pricing was competitive and they were very thorough with their work. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Ray is the single best service provider I have ever worked with. PERIOD. His prices are very reasonable. His work product is wonderful. Hie is so easy to work with and keeps you informed every step of the way. I cannot say thank you enough Ray! Do yourself a favor– stop searching for another painter and just call Ray.

Ray came out and surveyed my condo, gave a quote and a date he could get the work done. I committed to him, then a few days later he canceled the job on me. By that point I was already out of town for a week and unable to find a replacement. Given how busy painters are, this is setting me back several weeks.
I dont doubt he’d have done a fine job (which you’d expect given how expensive he is), but the lack of reliability was really troubling.

Ray and crew just finished patching and painting a major water stain on the ceiling of my house. They did an excellent job and the price was sooooo reasonable. Very easy to get in touch with Ray and he got me on the books super quick for the job. Can’t recommend enough!

Just needed one room painted for a nursery. I contacted four companies to get estimates and Ray was the only person that actually came out to look at the job. He was responsive and prompt and price was very fair compared to other bids. He took precautions to protect the new carpet in the room and did an excellent job painting. He even took the time to paint slightly inside the closet door so you wouldn’t see the white paint from inside the closet when the doors are closed, since new color in room is blue. I did not even think about that. I would definitely use Ray again in the future and would recommend him to friends.

Couldn’t give 6 stars, so I give Ray 5. I used Ray and his crew to paint my 3BR condo which included quite a bit of ceiling repair and drywall replacement. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Update. As expected the paint job on the condo was done right and on time for a reasonable price. I highly recommend Ray.

We used Ray to paint our 1600 square foot condo with ten foot ceilings. He spent a tremendous amount of effort on caulking the joints between the concrete ceilings and the 10 foot walls. His attention to detail is phenomenal. On one wall, the taping along the wall joint had bubbled up and was failing, and he tore it out and re-​taped it. We were going to paint our bifold doors, but Ray pointed out that they were composite material and the paint wouldn’t adhere properly. While his bid wasn’t the cheapest, quality workmanship doesn’t come cheap. When Ray was all done, he cleaned up completely and did an overall fantastic job. Finally, he came back a week later to repair two wall dings caused by the carpet installers that came in after him. He’s a very articulate guy and a joy to work with.

I hired Ray to paint my 1200 sq ft condo in Logan Square. He did a fantastic job and I was very satisfied with his work and professionalism. His quote, timing and material estimates were all spot on. He provided a daily update to keep me informed on the progress and planning. The prior owners had very dark, rich colors on the walls and trim and Ray took extra care to apply 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of paint to thoroughly cover with no show-​through. Overall I am very happy with Ray’s work and would recommend him to anyone looking for a loyal and trustworthy painter.

I am very happy with the job Ray did for me. I had several rooms painted and all of them required some patching and drywall repairs. Everything turned out perfect and I am kind of OCD about details! He is very easy to work with, very trustworthy. He did all the painting while I was at work. The final price was the exact quoted price. I will be having him come back in the future for some other rooms and recommending him to people.

Hired ray to tape and mud a bedroom wall that i had rebuilt in my loft. since it was a loft there was a lot of intricate detail work and notching due to a wood ceiling with beams all over the place. At the end of the day i couldn’t have been more pleased. His guys did a fantastic job and were extremely clean and courteous. When they were done the wall looked perfect and you wouldn’t have even known they were there, which is saying a lot bc that process creates a ton of dust. My wife and I were extremely pleased with the work and would definitely hire him again to do drywall work or paint.

Ray is a dependable and reliable contractor and an all-​around great guy. We have recommended him to friends many times and he has never let us down. We first hired Ray six years ago to help us restore our finished basement when it sustained heavy water damage. Not only did he do a fantastic job painting, but he brought in a terrific team to help with drywall replacement and trim work and door repair. Since then, we have hired him many, many times for various projects inside and out and have never been less than 100% satisfied with his work. His pricing is reasonable, he sticks to the budget, has unbelievable attention to detail and has a terrific sense of color. We trust him completely to work in our home when we are not there. Oh, and if he is not «on the clock», you might find him at a local animal shelter donating his services to spruce up their «home» too!

I recently had water damage to my home and needed several of my new walls taped and painted. Ray had previously been hired to paint the balconies of my condo so I was already familiar with his work. I called Ray on a Friday and by Monday he already had one of his guys, Ceasar, at my house taping the dry wall. Ray was at my house painting as soon as the walls were ready. Both Ray and Ceasar were meticulous and very clean. Ray purchased the paints for all 5 rooms and was able to match the colors perfectly to the other walls that were not repaired. I would definitely recommend hiring Ray. He did a perfect job.

I have used Ray’s services two times for painting my condo in Lincoln park. Ray is great to work with, he is friendly and helpful. He gave great input to help me pick out the colors I liked for each room. He is very professional, very reasonable with his pricing, and gets the job done true to his commitment. The quality of his work is excellent. I was very impressed with his work the first time that I hired him again. If I am in need of a painter again, he will be the one I will call. I highly recommend him to others.

Ray was wonderful. He painted the entire fully furnished basement of our house after we suffered water damage– including some doors and the fireplace. He and his team were prompt, professional, courteous and very thorough. I wasn’t sure about the right shade of the color I chose and Ray went out of his way to get it right, it looks perfect. I really recommend his services and will definitely be coming back to him for more interior work. He really is excellent.
