Hoffmire Steve Painting

We hired Steve to do some overdue maintenance on both the inside and outside of our home. He did a GREAT job. I’ve known of Steve’s strong reputation for years. He corrected trim problems on roof eves that have been a problem for years. He has a great eye for detail and will do his best to correct problems that may be leftover from other’s work.
He refinished all of our kitchen cabinets which had noticeable water damage in many panels and drawers. He did a great job of matching color on damaged panels to bring them back to their original color.
He has very good workers with him and did a great job keeping the areas clean. He is very easy to work with and communicates well. He takes a lot of pride in his work. I would recommend him to anyone.

We hired Steve to do painting and window bonding maintenance that another contractor dropped the ball on. Not only did he do the job we hired him for, but also refinished our big oak front door, cleaned and protected our outdoor fireplace flue, and fixed broken tiles on our roof. He started work exactly on time everyday and worked for 8 – 9 hours nonstop. Everything that we asked him to do came out exactly the way we had hoped. Fabulous job, great attitude and we highly recommend him for any kind of construction work you need on your home. There isn’t anything he cannot come up with a solution for ! Extremely professional and has a terrific crew working with him. Never had to worry whether he was going to show up, started early and right on time for 4 days ! Powered through the work and it all looks amazing! He also has a great eye for color matching and matched our stucco paint color perfectly, and that was not an easy job. Thanks Steve !

If I could give zero stars, I would. This guy seemed great when he came to give me a bid. He educated me a lot about paint and what he would do, which is why I chose him over 10 other bids I received even though he was the most expensive. I wanted the job done right so I was willing to spend a bit more for a professional job. Once I awarded him the business, he blew me off each time I called him. I had told him at the beginning we’d be out of the country and unreachable when he did the job so I needed to give him the instructions for everything beforehand. He obviously didn’t listen to a word I said, as he couldn’t find the key I’d put out and had to break into my house, ruining my window screen in the process. He didn’t caulk the crown molding as he said he would; there were spots where the old paint color showed through. Most importantly though, he didn’t paint the trim as he said he would. His contract was ambiguous at best so I wound up painting the trim myself, which took 2 days so I could move my furniture into my house. Then when I brought it up to him that it was my understanding he’d paint the trim and I’d like to take something off the final bill, he said NO! Can you believe that? He said he did a lot of extra work (where?), blamed me for my lack of communication about the key and how to get in (what?) when it was right in front of his face the whole time. He came back to do the caulking on the ceiling and when I came back to see what he was doing, he was standing on my baby’s mattress in his crib to do the job. He dragged a huge chair across my BRAND NEWLY refinished hardwood floors and left a scratch, and then left all the paint in the room where he touched things up. Then he had the audacity to tell me that this «was a nice little job to keep his guys busy» implying that we meant absolutely nothing to him. This is my brand new home that we just moved into and this guy shows ZERO respect for this fact. I so regret hiring him, I can’t even believe it. I would never in a million years want to even see this guy on the street, much less do business with him.
