I trusted my gut instinct that she would be good to work with and I got lucky! > Kristin is a master craftsperson and excellent at what she does. Her work is exquisite and her attention to detail is impeccable. I will definitely work with her again. **★★★★★ — shelli markee, Nov. 2018** > I have never worked with a professional painter who exceeded my expectations as much as Kristin. I was completely thrilled by her level of attention to detail. She delivers. She set a quote and as the job moved on, she realized the quote needed to be adjusted due to time spent and it wasn't higher, but lower than estimated. I was so impressed with her fairness, timeliness, and communication. A rare gem. I highly recommend Eager Beaver Works to anyone. **★★★★★ — Ellie Higham, Nov. 2018** > Kristin did an excellent job painting our house - our walls look amazing! She's very professional and has a lot of warmth - a great combination when someone is in your home almost every day for a month. > > She was clean and tidy, you couldn't tell that she'd been working on a space (asides from the paint on the wall). Kristin was really flexible when I added on a couple of extra items - it's clear that she really cares about making the client happy. She was a joy to work with and we didn't hesitate to call her when we had a few other projects post house-paint. **★★★★★ — emeraldcityaikido, March 2016** > I have used them at home and business. They are prompt, clean and professional, stay within estimates, start/end on time. **★★★★★ — bridgetlamp, Feb. 2016** > Kristen is a true craftsperson. We first hired her to paint the exterior of our house in 2013 and had her back to paint our backyard cottage. She has a fine attention to detail, is on time and on budget. She communicated with us along the way if something unexpected came up. I've recommended her to friends in the area. Hope we can use her in the future as we move to redoing some of the exterior of our house. **★★★★★ — egrunewald, Feb. 2016** > Kristin did a fantastic job painting the interior of our house. Our old craftsman has lots of wood trim and the paint job was very tidy along all of the edges. Kristin was prompt in her communication and in getting the job done. We expect to use her again. **★★★★★ — abear81, Feb. 2016** > Kristen is great!- an excellent painter, very mindful of deadlines, instructions and is good about giving input. She is professional and prompt, also gets along with animals and does not seem to be phased by other people's chaos! We highly recommend Eager Beaver Works! **★★★★★ — tomm69, Feb. 2016** > Kristin always get callbacks from us. Last time she painted the house exterior under the eaves, the porch and several large areas that required work. On prior projects she painted interior rooms. Always her work is professional. > > She listens patiently until she understands clearly what the work entails and what we expect (and sometime that is a bit muddled on our end). She provides a clear, detailed estimate of project costs. She begins and end the project on time. > > Plus we like her! **★★★★★ — art2homegrown, Feb. 2016** > Kristen was courteous and efficient worked diligently when on the job. The quality of the work she performed was excellent and met all my expectations ## Selected projects - [Fremont](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fremont-pj-vj~5446248) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Paper Hammer-- Downtown](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/paper-hammer-downtown-pj-vj~1731314) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - Description: Long overdue pictures! I've had the distinct pleasure of working with Paper Hammer (an awesome paper goods store in Downtown Seattle) on their interior and exterior finishes several times. This mural (and exteriors) were painted in 2013-- and it still makes me smile almost every morning when I'm driving down 2nd Avenue. After three years of rain and sun, I'm very pleased with how the mural has held up! Enjoy! - [The Old Colony on First Hill](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-old-colony-on-first-hill-pj-vj~1731254) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: A classically designed apartment gets a clean-up and vibrant update-- I love these colors! This project was awesome: we lightened up the back bedroom ceiling, making it look much larger and cleaned up all of the trimwork and walls throughout.
