Eric Linkins Custom Painting

The Linkins team has painted both the outside and inside of our nearly 100-year-old home (separate occasions). The team is respectful, punctual, eager-to-please. They do careful, clean and beautiful work. Hard to imagine working with another painter after such good experience with them.

Eric and his crew painted the entire interior of our townhome. They were exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure that we were satisfied. Very friendly, too! We are very happy with the job they did. We'll definitely use them again when we have other painting needs, and we highly recommend them to others.

I could not have been more pleased with the work Eric's crew did on my front door. Few painters know how to properly apply the European oil based paint that was used on my door. I've had other experienced painters use this paint, but the finished product was not satisfactory. In contrast, Eric's painters did a masterful job from the important preparation phase to the final coat of paint. Moreover, they were courteous and efficient.

I wasn’t looking forward to the hassles of having a contractor working at the house for a couple of week, but my fears were misplaced. Eric Linkins gave me the best AND easiest painting work ever. He and his crew are top-notch artisans who know how to paint and how to handle every part of the work. They painted the exterior of my home (except brick), expertly repaired rotten surfaces on dormers with epoxy (I wanted to keep the existing materials), changed out under-eave vents (plastic to painted aluminum) and gave my tired front door the full Dutch door treatment. The dormers worried me because I wasn’t sure how they would work on them without damaging the slate roof, but I figured they had plenty of experience on slate and I was not disappointed. We used FPE paint exclusively, with Eurolux on siding and trim. Eric helped me get over the hump of picking colors, and recommended colors for both the body of the house (stone) and front door (red) that perfectly complement the brick and slate. The Eurolux paint itself is fantastic — it has just the right level of sheen to be fresh and even the neutral stone color has depth and complexity. The front door, in Hollandlac brilliant paint, has a remarkable mirror surface that I know will also wear extremely well. Experience real quality make a difference, and are worth paying for when the results matter. If that weren’t enough, Eric, his son Alex and his whole crew are great people and you’ll miss them when it’s all done!

We were initially drawn to Eric Linkins Custom Painting because of the beautiful doors done with Fine Paints. We went for the complete paint job. From repair of rotted trim and preparation for painting, Eric, Alex and the rest of the team were professional and detailed oriented. It isn't hyperbole - our home seems to sparkle and we now have a gorgeous front door.

Is it wrong to love your front door? Probably. But Eric’s craftsmen took it from dull and ordinary to dazzling. It has elevated the whole house. These aren’t just painters, they are artisans who use quality materials and produce exceptional results. They do several days of sanding, patching, and priming before they do the painting and it makes a huge difference. They also reinstall the door each day so you are always secure. We look forward to using the team again on some interior projects.

Eric Linkins professionalism is aboveboard. Although this is a local company, their craftsmanship and work product is world class. They executed my vision seamlessly, and communicated well throughout the process. If you’re looking for good painters, look no further because you’ve found a gem that you’ll use repeatedly. Thank you!!!

Eric has painted our home twice. The workmanship is exceptional and thorough. From start to finish, I was pleased with the paint selection process, product, work performance and definitely the final result. Eric will always have our business.

Eric and his team of certified master painters came to the rescue, when the painter that my kitchen contractor recommended fell through at the last minute. Aside from moving fragile items out of the way, we didn’t have to move or lift anything. Eric and Alex’s top-notch crew were meticulous and painstakingly protected my new floors, furniture and carpet. During the job they were neat, courteous and helpful, relocating furniture as requested. They completed the job in a timely professional manner with everything back in place. As they were finishing, they happily & immediately addressed any concern we had, fixing all perceived imperfections. They used high quality Benjamin Moore paint and the entire house looks amazing. They graciously agreed to touch up the dismal paint job from our recent kitchen remodel and made the whole place pop. Our beautiful brand-new cherry wood railing in the kitchen is now a work of art. I would definitely use them again myself and highly recommend them.

Eric and his team have done multiple jobs for us over the years. The first project was our front door, and after that, there was no way I was going back to any of the other painters we had used. Eric and his crew are professional, personable, meticulous and do a top notch job.

Since 2012 Eric and his team have consistently provided to us excellent workmanship with punctuality and integrity. If you want a first rate painting contractor, Eric Linkins Custom Painting is truly superior.

Eric and his team are the most knowledgeable, professional, and talented painters in the business. It’s not going to be the cheapest job, but it will be done to perfection. Have them do the job right or pay for it to be done more often and with lackluster results. I had them paint my house from top to bottom, including new oil paint on all my trim and doors, both interior and exterior. They also restored all my old doors and staircase to their original stained beauty. This is going to be a job that lasts and it sets our house apart from the rest.
