R & J Painting LLC

Excellent, efficient, quality work. R &J just finished repairing, power-washing and staining my cedar home. What a team! Paul and his crew were responsive and genuinely nice people. You can trust them to do an outstanding job.

The crew that painted our interior did a perfect job. We had 0 mark up or errors. They were clean and efficient.

Would highly recommend R&J Painting!! Ray was quick to respond and had great insight on color options. All staff were so friendly and professional. Great price for such great work! Would use again in a heartbeat.

From start to finish, was a fantastic experience! From making the appointment to meeting Ray for a free consultation was pleasurable. Ray listened to our needs and made recommendations along the way. Within days his crew of carpenters and painters arrived. They were professional, respectful, experienced, and took pride in their trade. Our home looks amazing, a huge transformation. We are so glad we chose R & J Painting.

It had been much too long since we repainted our interior, but I knew from the moment Ray Orist assisted us with an estimate that it would probably be a good experience. I wasn’t wrong! In spite of unfortunate and stubborn wallpaper and 20 years of chips and dents, Paul and his amazing crew created perfection. Their professionalism and skills are unsurpassed, and the addition of kindness and good humor made the week’s project stress free. I am so grateful to Ray, Tonya, Paul and the amazing guys for helping me love my home again. See you next year for the exterior!!!

R & J Painting are amazing. They are professional, including answering our questions and scheduling. They protected my floors with tarp, cleaned up after they were done and my townhouse now looks great! I highly recommend them.

Brandon was very thorough, prepped well, and cleaned up nicely when he was done. He went above and beyond in his work, and our kitchen looks great!

We hired R&J Painting LLC to fix an area of wood that had rotted on our house, as well as to paint some of the exterior of our home. Our experience could not have been better! Ray came out to take a look at the job and to give us a quote. He was very professional and was willing to give advice on the options we had. Tonya helped to set up an appointment with a color specialist - free of charge - and she was available to help with any questions throughout the whole process. On the day the work was completed, the crew was very professional. They were able to get our job done in one day! The only thing that would have made the service even better, would've been if they could have fit us in faster. It took about two months for them to get to our job, but I guess that shows that they are good at what they do and they are in high demand! Very grateful for the work they did.

After much research, I finally found the painting company that cares about my hse as much as I care about my hse. That is R&J Painting— They did every single thing they said they would do = Each & every painter treated it like it was their own & did not stop short of making it look as “brand-new” as possible! They all took care of every detail I requested; & all were super pleasant to deal with. + Ray is the owner who knows everything there is about painting & brought my metal awnings back to life to now look gorgeous again! And most appreciative to Tonya who welcomed any questions & who also made everything flow so very smooth. I so strongly will recommend R&J to all my friends!

Ray, Tonya, and Brandon are very professional and made the process of getting my house painted easy. Ray gave me the quote quickly, Tonya set up a color specialist to help me pick paint colors, plus worked with my schedule, and Brandon worked hard from the time he arrived to when he left each day and left the work area clean everyday. Everyone is very personable, easy to work with. My house is beautiful! For all future painting needs R & J will be my only call.

This was our first time hiring any painters and we are very impressed and LOVE the work done by R & J Painting. Our home looks amazing now! We have had an absolutely amazing experience working with this company. Communication was great starting from the very beginning when we call office. Ray came within couple of days to provide an estimate and we decided to hire them since they had the best online customer reviews. We had pleasure to work with Paul and his crew: Brandon, Jason, and Fernando. There were additional few people (whose names we don’t remember) who came on Friday to help out so the job can be done on time. However; even with extra help, they were not able to finish it before weekend which was okay with me, but my husband insisted and wanted to be done. In that situation Paul and Brandon came at 7am on Saturday and worked until painting was done. Thank you very much for doing that. All the painters were very skilled, professional, courteous, and paid attention to details. They smoothed out the walls by filling in the holes and all the cracks, and replacing drywall where needed. They cleaned they work area each day before they left. We were impressed with the precautions they took to cover and move the furniture and other items that were on the way. Everything was beautifully done!!! Thank you!!! You are absolutely amazing and hardworking people!! Also, I want to say thank you to Tonya for being such an understanding person and contacting me via email which was more convenient in my case since I work night shift. All in all, this company is a great choice if you need clean and professional painting done. If we need additional painting we know who will be called. You can’t go wrong with R & J Painting.

We were very pleased with R&J Painting. From the time I met with Ray, for a quote, to the time the painters were finished, they were all very nice and professional. They painted the exterior of our house; it looks wonderful. Ray's experience was very helpful when it came to picking a color for our front exterior. So pleased with the work; even more pleased that the crew cleaned everything up when they were finished. Great experience. Thank you to them all.

I am very impressed, exceeded my expectations. I've had many house painters and this company is by far the best I've had. From start to finish. The painters came on time, painting job is excellent, the team leader Paul made sure I was happy the whole way through. The owner Ray came to get an estimate, listened to what I wanted, really nice and very professional, I can't think of anything they need to change.

Ray and his crew are skilled professionals. They were great to work with and did an excellent job staining the cedar siding on our house.

The entire experience of working with R&J Painting was excellent. We had read such great reviews we made an appointment for Ray to come out to bid the job. He impressed us so much with his professionalism and how he treated us, we went no further and couldn't be more pleased. He assured us once the job was started, it would be finished, and it was! The crew leader Paul was fantastic with communicating all aspects of the job and clarifying issues when needed. His team, to mention a few, Dan (wonderful & kind worker), Fernando (who came on a Saturday to help Brian the carpenter), Brandon (who fixed a ceiling crack perfectly), Jason and all the others, were respectful of this upheaval in our lives, left an immaculately clean work site AND did a beautiful job of painting. We highly recommend this company and crew.

Top notch very professional company from my first initial phone call requesting an estimate. Ray and Tonya were friendly and enthusiastic about my painting project. I would highly recommend R&J Painting for any projects. Paul, the painter did an amazing job and was very thorough with his work.

I seldom write a review but cannot pass up this opportunity to let everyone know what a fantastic company R & J Painting has turned out to be! From the initial contact with Ray giving me an estimate, to the completion of the job, it was very professional. Not only did they paint almost the entire interior of the home they had to remove wallpaper from four rooms; one of which had paper with paint over it. Some of the other companies giving me a quote would not even commit to a price for the removal of the wallpaper. R & J Painting wasn't the highest nor the lowest estimate. Ray's crew began with three (Dan, the leader, Brandon and Paul) for the first two days and increased to five until completion. All the men were experts at what they did and extremely polite, courteous and helpful. Also, the clean up was unsurpassed! If you want a company you can trust and be proud of the work they've done, go with R & J Painting LLC!

This is the 2nd project R&J completed for us in the last 30 days. Their work is top notch. Today, Wade was our painter and his attention to detail and skill is top notch. From the time we were first introduced to Ray the owner and communicated with office assistant Tonya until completion of the job by Wade today, I cannot think of one area I would suggest improvement. If you want a fabulous painter we highly recommend this company.

We were impressed with R & J Painting from the moment Ray stepped in the door to estimate our job. We got two bids, and even though they were similar in price, we felt much more comfortable with R & J. They have a large crew, and were able to handle moving all of our heavy furniture, even our entertainment center, without unplugging or disconnecting anything. Dan headed the team of three, with Brandon and Nick. When it appeared they might not be able to finish as planned on the second day, they brought in Wade to help for a couple of hours. They laid down drop cloths immediately starting at the front door, even though they weren't going to be working in that part of the house until the second day. They did very professional work, and cleaned up each day. They removed picture hooks from the walls, painted behind them and put them right back up. Dan and I walked through the house at the end of the job, and he made sure I was happy with everything they had done. When they had cleaned up, Ray stopped back to inspect the job and take pictures. In all, I was very pleased, and would not hesitate to recommend R & J Painting to anyone!

The R&J team did a fantastic job painting the exterior of our house. Very thorough with a high level of expertise. The price was very fair. The team was friendly and cleaned up each evening at the end of their work day. They finished a half day ahead of schedule too. We highly recommend R&J

It is so hard to find quality contractors. Ray and his team are it! We hired them for interior painting and they did a phenomenal job. Ray is great with communicating and overseeing the project and his team is dedicated to providing quality work. I was very impressed with how much they cared and how meticulous they were. They were also on time, professional, courteous, fast (even finished early) and left the house clean. I highly recommend them and will be hiring them again.

R&J painted the 2nd story of my cedar sided house via sanding, caulking, primer and solid stain (2 coats) the end of August, 2018. They exceeded my expectations in terms of timing and quality of workmanship. Ray and his team of four painters were both friendly and professional. I wholeheartedly recommend them.

Ray came to my house to quote on the staining of the exterior of our cedar home. He was very nice and professional. I ended up having more questions, called him back, and he came out a second time. Not even aware that he was going to get the job. He answered every single question I had, and never made me feel as if I was asking a stupid one. He is very honest, doesn't take advantage of you, walks around the house with you, shows you what should be done, and explains everything that will be done to you in full detail. The crew he had paint the house were very professional, respectful, and cleaned up every day before they left. It only took one week to start and finish the job. Ray told me they start at 7:00 am. I would look out my window at 6:55 and they were already here and ready to start. They were all very meticulous on every thing they painted. If one of them wasn't satisfied with what they did, they redid it! I found out from one of the painters that Ray added a thing or two to be done to make the house look nicer that was not on the original quote. Ray never mentioned it to me, and he never charged me for it. Who does that??? Ray is also very reliable. Every time I would text him he would reply within minutes, or Tonya, his office manager, would reply very quickly to my emails. This is a company that I would most definitely hire again! Actually, we had him give us a quote for painting our basement.

I could not be happier with the job Ray and his team completed. My 80-year-old home was overdue for some exterior TLC, including replacing rotted wood and trim. I chose R&J after getting estimates from five different companies. From the start, Ray was very detail-oriented, taking the time to really look at everything that needed to be done. I got an itemized estimate that clearly stated all the work included. The crew started on time and worked diligently from start to finish, even braving an unexpected wasp nest and the occasional thunderstorm. I feel like they really put a lot of focus into the prep work, which everyone tells me is the key to a good result. Throughout the job, Ray stopped by almost daily to inspect the progress and help with the work. I love having the best-looking house on my block and will hire these guys for all future painting projects.

R & J recently painted my daughters house, and did an incredible job! I contacted them and wanted a "rush" painting for two rooms. Ray fit me in within a week. Completely professional, friendly, easy to work with, on time and clean! I highly recommend R & J.

R&J Painting did the interior of our new home. Ray and his crew are so friendly and also so hard working. The job was done quickly and our home looks perfect! I like to be involved in the process of getting our house together and Ray kept me updated on the progress and sent me photos along the way. The pricing was super fair and absolutely money well spent!

We just had our basement painted by R & J and everything was completed as requested in the time frame that was promised. We are VERY satisfied with the end result, the attention to detail, and great communication throughout the process. We'd definitely use them again and will recommend them to others for projects of all sizes.

My entire house needed to be repainted. I contacted R & J painting for an estimate. I explained to ray what I would like to have done. Ray and his crew came in and painted my entire house, even my garage. I was so pleased with the finished result. R & J is a reliable and dependable company.

We selected R&J Painting to paint and caulk the cedar trim on our home. The trim was in poor condition and required significant work. During the painting process we requested some changes and additional work which they also completed. The team from R&J was extremely professional and communicated very well with us. We are extremely pleased with work they did. We recommend them very highly.

Excellent company! Had a great experience with them. In and out in two days. Timely and very professional. Owner had wonderful suggestions and really took time to work with us on what would look best!

We recently had Ray and his crew paint the exterior of our home. We were so pleased with his attention to detail and the house looks the best it has ever looked. I would highly recommend them to everyone. We will be using them again when it is time to paint our interior.

They just painted the exterior of our house in Cary, IL. and I must say, I was overwhelmed by the quality of their team and work... They took on a tough task of wood siding which was in bad shape and turned it into a brand new looking home ... the Paint they used was high quality paint I've used before myself, they took the time to caulk every window, door, and areas that needed extra attention. Truly they are an EXCELLENT COMPANY and TEAM I would highly recommend them to others if you want the job done RIGHT ... GREAT WORK ...

R&J has painted the outside of our house, stained our deck, refinished our wood garage door beautifully, and has painted several rooms inside our house over the past 10+ years. They always do a great job, very professional, clean up is great. Ray is great to work with!

We had R&J stain/paint (we used a solid color stain, so it is more like a paint) our deck twice in the past 10 years. Both times it turned out great. The most recent time it had some bubbling issues due to moisture from under our deck. We have it closed of for esthetics so there is really no airflow. Ray came back and fixed everything as he stands behind his work. A+++

Ray and his team of professionals are, by far, the best painters we have ever used. He is reasonably priced and their work is outstanding. He genuinely cares about his customers. I say that because he is responsive and is on the job daily with his team. I had no issues with any of his team. They were on time, friendly, professional and cleaned up after themselves daily. Highly recommend!!!

Ray and his crew do a wonderful job! They are always on time, friendly, tidy and the quality of their work is top notch. I have used them for interior and exterior painting of our home and am always pleased. Any time I need some painting done, I know who to call if I want the job done right.

We have used R&J Painting for many years. They have been continuously professional, their work areas we clean, and they are always reasonably priced. They have painted inside and outside of our home as well as many homes of our friends and relatives. Fantastic work!!

We hired R&J Painting LLC to paint 5 interior rooms of our house and they did such a great job, we have hired them back in 2 months to paint our 3 story exterior. The owner Ray is very responsive and provides a wealth of experience. We couldn't be happier with the professionalism of R&J Painting and with the workmanship that our home has received!

R & J painting is incredibly professional! They know how to prep a job so the outcome is long lasting and done right! I've hired many painters over the years and not only do they prep well, they are expert painters and leave the job clean! They exceeded all my expectations and have set the bar for painting in my book! I highly recommend them!
