Leslie is truly an artist. We've worked together creating beautiful and unique designs. As a design-build professional, I'm thankful to have her as a design resource.

Leslie Faux painted our entry way and our dinning room area. She did a fantastic job and we receive many compliments.

What a great company! Leslie is very professional, creative, talented and adds a unique look to anything she paints which makes any piece she touches one of a kind. We had here work on 2 projects in our home and they both turned out fantastic. We would highly recommend her for any job.

Leslie does not take a "cookie cutter" approach to your project She spends time to think about options and customizing the colors to blend into your home or office and what the best fit would be. She is fun and a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her.

Leslie painted my powder room and entry walls with a tone on tone leaf pattern that always evokes positive comments. Even when there were some issues around the sink, she came back until everyone was completely satisfied. Very nice work.

I've been in the commercial painting business for 30 years in the Reno area and Absolutely Faux has the best Faux finishers that I've ever worked with. I highly recommend them for any detailed work you may have.

I have worked with Leslie for years on many projects. As a designer I love working with Leslie because we can collaborate and she brings her artistic expertise to our design vision. Her insight and sample boards help the vision become reality.

We can't say enough about Leslie and Absolutely Faux.
We hired her to perform a makeover on our two story cement rock fireplace which was dated and unexciting. Leslie performed a miracle makeover. She painted each rock individually and the outcome is exquisite. No one upon looking at the fireplace realizes that the rocks are not real.
Leslie is also a complete joy to have around your house. We recommend her without hesitation.

During the work, this was the photo taken. This finish photos are more exciting.
Leslie from Absolutely Faux transformed our fireplace surround (hearth, frame and mantel) from its original, stark white to a beautiful, warm, inviting focal point in our family room. Leslie was extremely meticulous in her efforts to match the colors with our walls and carpet and to create the look we wanted. She was also meticulous in achieving professional results and even came back to "touch up" some areas when the carpet cleaners damaged the hearth with their equipment. I continue to receive compliments from our guests on our beautiful fireplace, and have referred numerous friends to Absolutely Faux.

A lot can go wrong with faux finishes, so we were a bit nervous. But Leslie and crew did a fantastic, meticulous job on finishes in our living room, bedroom and dining area. She took the time to generate sample boards so we knew exactly what we would be getting; this step was essential, in my opinion. We love how the work turned out.

Leslie is very talented. She was able to correct a bad paint job and make it look incredible. She did 2 fireplace facing and a set of cabinets in our home and was prompt, professional and her work is fantastic. She is very responsive, listens to what you want and came up with alternative solutions that turned out great! She came back immediately when we needed her to make a small correction. We have referred her many times and will use her again in the future.

I have used AF for several projects in my home and business and have found them extremely talented and easy/professional to work with, not to mention their keen eye for color and art. I am very impressed with their attention to detail and their ability to create things that don't look like paint at all. Work was done well, kindly and timely. I highly recommend them for any special paint design project.
