It starts with a detailed proposal and submission of their certificate of insurance and moves on to a well trained courteous crew who are extremely neat in their preparation and cleanup. Mike Mangano the owner is an absolute pleasure to work with. We were introduced by friends who had similar experiences and have passed his name on to many of our friends. This is a "First Class" decorator. **★★★★★ — holdrena, Nov. 2015** > I have worked with a lot of painters and wallpaper installers being in the design world and from now on I will only use First Class Decorating for my wallpaper and paint needs personally and for my clients. The job was responded to professionally and very quickly, the job was executed beautifully! Nothing but the highest complements to First Class decorating! -Holdren Design **★★★★★ — barluper, Oct. 2015** > Mike and his crew are professional, courteous, on time, non invasive, experts in their field, and dedicated to being the best.

First Class team of 2 was excellent and efficient in completing all phases of this multi-task job. We have been using them for 15 - 20 years with the same excellent results. The care and attention to detail they provide is reminiscent of Eldin, the painter on the '90's Murphy Brown comedy series, without the eccentricity. **★★★★★ — sjk5190, June 2015** > I hired First Class Decorating to paint many of my doors (bedroom and closet) in my home as well as stain the front door and paint the laundry room. They did a great job! They showed up on time and were very neat and courteous!! I would highly recommend them and would for sure hire them again. **Comment from First Class Decorating, Inc.:** > Thank you very Much Sara!
