What Our Customers Are Saying

“In the 34 years that my wife and I have lived in our present house, we have used many different painting contractors–all of them highly recommended–but John Neill Painting and Decorating is far and away the best! What sets them apart in our experience is the care and thoroughness with which they prepped the exterior of our house for repainting. This makes for a smoother and more “finished” look and a more durable paint job. Having had the exterior painted just 3 years ago by another contractor, whose work did not hold up because of inadequate prepping, we really noticed the difference with John Neill and will use them exclusively from now on.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to hire a separate carpenter or repair crew?

No. Our in-house team handles most minor to moderate repairs — saving you time, hassle, and extra coordination.

Will pressure cleaning damage my home’s exterior?

Our crews use the right pressure and techniques for each material so that you get a thorough clean without worry.

Can I book these services without painting?

Most clients use our prep services as part of a full painting project, but we are happy to discuss standalone repairs or cleaning if it’s a good fit.
