“John Neill provided fantastic service from start to finish on our project. The crew were always friendly and polite as well as taking care to clean up at the end of each day. The quality of the work is of a high standard and the level of service excellent.”
– Andrew Agnew, Malvern, Pa
“Your Foreman’s work is outstanding! We have lost track of the number of painters who have worked on our house. Although they always came recommended, this is the first time that the craftsmanship has been completely satisfactory. In fact, he exceeded our expectations in every way — there was not a single flaw — demonstrating that “The Sign of Craftsmanship” is not an empty slogan but truly a mission for the company. Everyone involved in our project exhibited the same high level of professionalism. We will be using John Neill Painting & Decorating from now on — this is an incomparable organization!”
– Jeff Wilson, Narberth, Pa
“John Neill is our “go to painter and contractor” now for more than 15 years. When we were ready to have our kitchen redone, we contacted John again. Our level of service was just amazing. Of all things, we started the project just before Thanksgiving and finished right on time just before New Year’s Eve. We were without a kitchen for such a short period of time. John and his team showed up when scheduled and stayed committed to timelines. John also did a great job communicating to us about next steps for the project and when to schedule appliance delivery, etc. Most amazing, we have a house full of animals including two cats and two dogs, and John and his team really minimized the disruption to our schedule and worked with us to secure the safety of the pets. We would highly recommend this exceptional team of craftsman again.”
– Deborah Pizzini, Wynnewood, Pa
“The job was done in a timely fashion with excellent results.”
– Frances Krane, Bryn Mawr, Pa
“John Neill provided a thorough assessment and quickly followed that up with an estimate. Scheduling was easy and flexible as John and crew worked around another contractor we had onsite. Their crews were polite and worked quickly, quietly and effortlessly to complete the job. The end result is a vast improvement over the original paint scheme and garners many compliments from neighbors.”
– Andrew Hargreaves, Paoli, Pa
“The crew was prompt and professional. I felt very comfortable with them in my home, and they did excellent work. I especally appreciated the help that the Foreman gave me in cleaning the fan in the kitchen when the painting was done.”
– Grace Jenchura, Merion, Pa
“A very professional approach to all of the work. Also, the combination of carpentry skills that were a part of the painting tasks made for a smooth project.”
– Peter Saylor, Chestnut Hill, Pa

Roger and I are writing to thank you for the wonderful job you did in redecorating our guest room. We are incredibly pleased with the result! We love a room that we had become bored and unhappy with over the years. The initial visit from Patrick helped us to zero in on what our options might be. The painters and the carpenter were a joy to work with. They arrived early each morning, were pleasant and easy to work with, and were careful to clean up after themselves each day. Our furniture was well protected during the whole process and when the job was complete, everything was returned to normal. We would not hesitate to recommend John Neill to anyone looking to make improvements on their home. Very sincerely,”
– Roger and Carol Thorne, Malvern, Pa
“Thank you so much for all your hard work, and your flexibility in adding and subtracting where changes were required. I particularly appreciated the efforts of your craftsmen who left the work areas spotless.”
– Signe Brightman, Merion, Pa
– Deann Mills, Philadelphia, Pa
– Jay Minkoff, Wynnewood, Pa
“I just want to say that your men were absolute professionals. I have been retired for some time, but I know how important, and integral, good employees are to running a good business. And, in this day and age, finding and retaining such staff is difficult. Your men are those, “hard-to-find” types. From beginning to end, they completed each task with a smile and a “can do” attitude. No request was too much or too difficult. They were very respectful of our home and us.
We are selling our home and we held off our realtor from showing it until all our small “tidy-up/fix-up” jobs were completed. When our realtor returned to show our home for the first time she said: “I don’t know what all the fuss was about; your home looks great and I don’t see anything different.” EXACTLY! They did such good work that you can’t even tell!
Thanks to everyone at John Neill Painting and Merry Christmas!”
– Patrick Kipp, Villanova, Pa
“This is the second time in two years that we have used your company and we could not be more pleased. We are so happy with the work your painters and other craftsmen who completed the project. We always recommend your company to anyone we know who needs painting.”
– Michael & Susan Jacobs, Ardmore, Pa
“Thanks for another great job on our house. Your men were a pleasure to have around and we wish you the best for fall.”
– Dick & Caroline Veith, Devon, Pa
“Many thanks for you swift and professional work in completing the carpentry and painting at my home. The men worked around the comings and goings of our Australian guest with minimal disruption. Please thank everyone who worked on the project.”
– Signe Brightman, Merion, Pa
“I wanted you to know how pleased we are with the job that your crew did in the three rooms at Historic Waynesborough. As a National Historic Landmark we have very high standards for our historic house museum so appreciated the care that your men took with the job.”
– May Holgren, President, Friends of Historic Waynesborough
“Your men did a fantastic job and we hardly knew they were here. No loud music, no cigarette butts outside the back door, no messes left behind (all of these have happened with other painting contractors). They were unfailingly polite and pleasant. We will definitely recommend your company and call you again for future projects.”
– Julie Schroeder, Wynnewood Pa
“Thank you for getting the exterior of my home done in such a timely way. Your crew who completed the pressure cleaning on my patio and painted the soffit and chimney did so with care and quality craftsmanship. It was a pleasure to do business with you.”
– Kathy Sheusi, Berwyn Pa
“Thank you for arranging to have two terrific fellows paint our home in Wayne. They make a great team; they arrived promptly each day, were extremely well organized, efficient, neat, meticulous, and respectful. They completed the work on time and went over and above my expectations. It was truly a pleasure to have them work in our home and we look forward to having them back.”
– Theodora Zahan, Wayne Pa
“We are writing to let you know how pleased we are with the quality of the exterior paint job that your company completed at our home. Your crew was professional at all times and brought a high level of expertise to their work. They sought our input and responded quickly to any questions or concerns expressed.
We feel that a good paint job depends on careful preparation, and that is what they provided. We were especially happy with the effort they gave in prepping our peeling shutters and iron railing. Both were in bad shape, but thanks to their thoroughness, they now look great, along with the rest of the house.
It has been a pleasure to work with you and your company. We will definitely use you again the next time we need painting done at our home. Thank you for a positive experience.”
– Fred and Judy Barsam, Gladwyne Pa
“I want to formally thank you and your staff for the work completed at the private residence on Delancey Street. All workmanship from the preparation to the final coat for the walls, ceilings, and trim on the interior to the exterior painting, as well as the casework finish exceeded the owner’s, the architect, and our expectations. The building won the Preservation Alliance 2011 Grand Jury Award, and the Local Historical Committee Award for Best Project. Your attention to detail in handling the finishes, especially on the original woodwork is something to be proud of. As far as my recommendation for future projects, you can count on us to include John Neill Painting as part of our team.”
– Barry Bragin, Senior Vice President, Cherokee Construction
“I have nothing but praise for the work that you recently did on both the interior and exterior of our house. I knew from prior experience to expect nothing but the best. We were advised of arrival times each day and the crew arrived right on time. All my questions and concerns were addressed with utmost consideration and expert input, each step of the way. I much appreciated the carpenter’s patience and input when we were designing a new surround for the front door. And then he did a fine job of constructing the surround and replacing many of the window mouldings with AZEK. All crew members were courteous, efficient and meticulous in their work and clearly endeavoring to do the best job possible. John was always available to come take a look and answer questions and facilitate any changes/additions to the original proposal. I am pleased to recommend John Neill Painting to neighbors and friends. You may certainly use my name as a reference.”
– Jay d’Andelot Pinch-Gilmar, Bala Cynwyd, Pa.
“Thank you for the wonderful job you did painting some of the bedrooms and hall in our home. They look beautiful! We look forward to having you come back to help us complete some additional projects.”
– John & Carole Bartholdson, Malvern, Pa.
“Letters that begin with those two words are usually bad news, but this one isn’t. We are very pleased with the work your team did painting the inside of our house this month. It is a pleasure to look around here now. Your workers were polite and friendly, and very neat. They were meticulous in their work, and redid any spot that did not dry to their satisfaction. It wasn’t easy for them to pass their own inspection standards. They even came up with a solution to a tile problem we had that I would have never thought of, and it looks terrific! We’d gladly recommend you to our friends – in fact, we already have – and rehire you ourselves. Please accept our compliments and our heartfelt thanks.”
– Elaine Goldberg
“We did a major overhaul of our house that involved painting the inside and outside, power-washing, wallpapering and carpentry. Your crew not only did an excellent job – but did it in a way that minimized the disruption to our lives. They were neat, courteous, and attentive to detail – in short, true professionals. The house looks great – many, many thanks!”
– Amy and Jason Shargel, Wynnewood, Pa.
“John Neill Painting came highly recommended and now I know first-hand why: they were very thorough, and very knowledgeable about how best to paint all the different surfaces of our home, which range from stone, to brick, to old asbestos siding. The house looks amazing, like brand new and they finished the job in a very timely manner. They treated the house like it was their own and we are very grateful. We would definitely recommend them for any scale painting job and will definitely use them again on future projects.
Thanks again John for a job very well done.”
– Chris Niedland, Wayne, Pa.
“I want to thank you and your crew for the excellent job painting the exterior of my home. I have lived here for many years and the house has never looked better. The crew was great and I must say they were meticulous in the way they did the job (no paint drips anywhere). Additionally, the cement work done on the stone sections of the house were also done professionally. The gentleman did a nice job of blending the cement color so the new cement matched up with the old.”
– Jim Illuminati, Wynnewood, Pa.
“What a wonderful surprise! Thank you for the lovely plants. I love that they will last so long. We can’t thank you enough for the beautiful, professional and stress free job you did for us. We especially want to thank your men for being such helpful, nice guys.”
– Fran Graham, Gladwyne, Pa.
“I want to thank you and compliment you on the terrific job that you did painting our house, doing carpentry work, and repairing a number of areas in the house. The crew were a real pleasure to have around. All of your people are extremely courteous, extremely pleasant, vey professional, and do and excellent job. It is a pleasure to do business with yo, and I want to thank you very much for a great job.”
– William Graham, Gladwyne, Pa.
“Your crew has done an excellent job. I don’t think the house has looked this good in all the years we’ve lived here.”
– Robert Gempel, Radnor, Pa.
“The expertise and efficiency were wonderful, as well as the attention to detail. You can’t improve on perfection!”
– Cynthia Frishberg, Cynthia Inc., Villanova, Pa.
“I am happy to tell you that the work done here at my home was done in a way that went beyond my highest hope. The gentlemen were excellent in their skills, caring and polite, and did everything in the best way. Thank you.”
– Sonia Gilbert, Merion, Pa.
“This letter is to thank you for the service I recently received from your company and especially from Dave and Ken. Dave told me early on he was sure he could take care of my stone wall issue. Well, he came through in spades. The end result was way above my expectations. Ken was always thorough, neat and responsive. All the painting your crew did was outstanding. We found no drips, spills, spatters or mishaps. Every edge is perfect, every color consistent. The site was always clean and tidy. Your people are professional in every way. Needless to say, I am overjoyed. I’d be happy to be quoted or used as a reference.”
– Doug Moe, Radnor, Pa.
“I own a house from the 1930′s that had a very tired looking solid wood front door. I hired John Neill Painting to restore it, and they did a thorough and high quality job. The project was involved; the door had to be delicately stripped and refinished; the stained glass window had panes that needed replacing and had to be re-leaded from scratch; the old door hardware needed maintenance; the door jambs needed carpentry and painting, and finally metal decorative elements had to be stripped and refinished. All of the work was done with one phone call. Several trades were involved in the project, and everything was done professionally. The workers showed up exactly when they said they would, the did excellent, detail oriented work, and always left the house tidy at the end of the day. The door looks great. I highly recommend John Neill Painting & Decorating.”
– Jeff Warden, Bala Cynwyd, Pa.
“Hi John-
I want to let you know how impressed I am with your carpenter and the quality of his work. These “small jobs” are no less trouble than the big ones and he very patiently and carefully solved all the “quirks”! Additionally, he kept a very tidy worksite and showed the sort of care to my home that made it a pleasure to have him working here.”
– Debbie Grady, Wynnewood, Pa.
“We are very pleased with the results of the faux wood graining finish on the front of our house. The painter/artist conducted himself in a truly professional manner. He patiently answered our questions and explained how to care for the finish in the future. We live in a historic house in Old City, Philadelphia. Our house is in a high traffic tourist section of the city. Since the repainting, I have noticed that tourists are snapping pictures of the front of our house! We have received many compliments from friends, neighbors and strangers. We will recommend John Neill Painting to anyone that needs professional, expertly executed home painting.”
– Mr. & Mrs. Scott Mueller, Philadelphia, Pa.
“Dear John, Anyone who has embarked on a home construction project will tell you of the stress and inconvenience that comes along with such a job. I want to tell you of the pleasure and satisfaction that
I experienced with the crew from your company. From the first day to the last, Your men were professional and courteous to me and respectful of my property. I am extremely pleased with the quality of their work and the way they handled themselves while in my home. The work space was left neat and clean at the end of each day, which I find most important when living in the house during the rehab. They were patient with me while choosing colors and they were agreeable in working around other areas of construction going on at the same time. When it comes to painting, I have no need to look beyond John Neill Painting for future work. A+++ for a super job, Thank You!”
– Susan Blatt, Center City, Philadelphia
“Thank you for a wonderful meticulous job! We can’t say enough good things about the crew – not only were they pleasant, considerate and a pleasure to have around, their professionalism and workmanship were amazing. Please feel free to use us as a reference and please pass along our praises to the guys –
they’re great!”
– Donna Fitzgerald, Wayne, Pa.
“Thanks so much for the superb interior painting work just completed at our home in Rosemont. We were especially pleased that you coordinated the painting and repairs with our already planned family vacation. We returned after a week away to find seven room interiors beautifully painted and meticulously clean, with everything in it’s proper place. Outside, your crew had nicely completed work involving power-washing, masonry, carpentry, and painting. We’d enthusiastically recommend your team to others. Also, having work done during vacation was a very valuable bonus that reduced family disruption to nil – we were so glad we chose that option.”
– Edward Cooper, Bryn Mawr, Pa.
“Having met the members of your team, may I say how impressed I am with their conscientious approach, the pride they take in their work and their obvious craftsmanship. They repeatedly showed how much they cared about thoroughness and quality work by countless extra efforts. Such attention to detail in most likely one of the reasons why your customers keep returning and why your business keeps growing through word of mouth. It’s been a pleasure to work with all of you and I will look forward to the next project.”
– Fred Merriman, St. David’s, Pa.
“Thank you so much for the outstanding service we received. Not only did you send a painter to our house on the Saturday before Easter, but he stayed all day in an attempt to finish the priming and painting of the powder room. He really went beyond the call of duty. It was 5:30 pm and he was still working. I knew
I wanted the bathroom finished for Easter, even though that was almost an impossible request. Your painter, however, made the bathroom look more than acceptable to me and our guests on Easter. He then came back as promised to finish the door.”
– Lauren Donaldson, Bryn Mawr, Pa.
“Really appreciate the great job by your crew. There was a lot going on here for several weeks, as you know, but it all went extremely well. I feel it is because of the extraordinary pride your staff takes in their work. One of your men even took some brass window hardware home to soak and clean overnight. He just wanted it to look right! The wallpapering crew were excellent as well. The paper all looks beautiful.
We knew we could count on you and you did not disappoint. Thank You.”
– Nancy McGivney, Wayne, Pa.
Dear John,
We are so enjoying our freshly painted home, which feels truly refreshed! It can be difficult having people in ones space for a couple of weeks. Your crew made this an easy and enjoyable experience… in the end producing a beautiful job.These men are wonderful assets to your organization. We appreciated their skills, professionalism and sensitivity to our environment.
We are well pleased.
Best wishes,
– Patricia and Peter Binnion, Villanova, Pa.
Since we first found John Neill Painting, we have never used anyone else. Ted and his crew are wonderful to have around; they are professional, hardworking, prompt, considerate and, of course, their work is impeccable. We have always been extremely pleased and recommend John Neill Painting with pleasure.
– Mary Bassett, Haverford, Pa.
I did not hesitate to call a second time after my first experience and I will call again: so far, very satisfied: this from someone who considers himself a perfectionist painter.
– Thomas Buechle, Wayne, Pa.
John Neill Painting & Decorating have always performed at the highest levels. With their staff of talented people, they can handle any challenge that a project presents. Theyre fast and effective!
– Clinton Gilliam, Radnor, Pa.
“Results were as we had imagined in our most critical and hopeful minds-eye. And, were achieved with a minimum of chaos and confusion and a surfeit of courtesy and communication. The sense was palpable that one was engaged with caring for craft and its own good name. Small mis-steps (caused by our failure to be clear) were put back into smooth stride immediately and with no counter argument. John Neill Painting is on my permanent rolodex.”
– John H. Michel, Jenkintown, Pa.
“I always recommend you for painting and paper hanging. Your team is great, neat, show up when they are supposed to and have never let us down for any job.”
– Connie Berg, Meadowbrook, Pa.
“John Neill did the exterior painting of our house about five years ago. It is an older home and the stucco had never been painted. The workmen did an excellent job preparing the surfaces and doing the stucco and wood trim. We also had shutters installed. They did an excellent job. We have received many compliments on the work.”
– Michele Geraghty, Wynnewood, Pa.
“I have been a John Neill customer for many years. His firm has done both interior and exterior painting, as well as carpentry repairs and installations on my home. His work has always been of the highest standards, and dealing with his staff, from his workers and crew to the office staff, has always been a delight. His estimates have always been reasonable and accurate, the work timely and professional and Mr. Neill himself has always been highly accessible and accommodating. I will never use anyone else.”
– Andrea Hanaway, Wayne, Pa.
“As perfectionists, we demand much from our contractors, and are frequently disappointed with a lack of skill and pride in work done. On many jobs now, John Neill and his crew have shown a pride, professionalism and attention to detail that is rare today. We love the work done from assistance with color choices, to the fact that work areas are left spotless at the end of each day. Our home looks great thanks to John Neill and his great staff”!
– Marla Milgram, Haverford, Pa.
“Enclosed is our check in final payment for the work performed at our residence. We are more than satisfied with the quality of the work of your painting crew, in every aspect! Our home was left spotless and we feel that the work performed was beyond our expectations. Both Paul and I feel fortunate to have had Ted managing our job. He was very easy to work with, kept the job running smoothly and gave us what we feel was a superior outcome. We would not hesitate to hire you again and would refer your company to anyone seeking a painting contractor.”
– Toni Kruc, West Chester, Pa.
“Dear John,
As you know the mind of a five year old is very fertile! I just want you to know that your men did so much to foster my son’s work ethic! Your men were always so patient and kind to my son when they needed to be painting. They went out of their way to set up things for him to paint and iI think he learned a lot about proper brush strokes!! The ultimate for him was when Steve paid him with five $1.00 bills. It just made him feel as though he really worked hard! You have some great men on your team! They will be missed around here.”
– Liz Zelov, Haverford, Pa.
“Thank you so much for the outstanding service we received. Not only did you send a painter to our house on the Saturday before Easter, but he stayed all day in an attempt to finish the priming and painting of the powder room. He really went beyond the call of duty. It was 5:30 pm and he was still working. I knew I wanted the bathroom finished for Easter, even though that was almost an impossible request. Your painter, however, made the bathroom look more than acceptable to me and our guests on Easter. He then came back as promised to finish the door.”
– Radnor Homeowner
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the absolutely wonderful job you did restoring my house. I have hired a dozen or more painting contractors in my life. I have fired most. I have been fired by one. I have never met three finer people than the crew you sent. They were a delight. We miss having them around. I cannot tell you how helpful, cheerful, and unflappable they were. If you ever have a doubting prospective client, please have them call me.
– Haverford, Pa.
John and his crew were a pleasure to work with, both from a financial point of view as well as the work habits. I felt very comfortable going off to work, leaving the crew in my house, with the knowledge that the job would be done right, the mess would be cleaned up, and I would be very pleased with the finished product. The entire job reflected the skills of John Neill’s talented employees and we were very pleased with the results. I wouldn’t use anyone else!
– Gladwnye, Pa.
A short note to tell you how we are so pleased to have used you for our painting. Excellent painters, beautiful manners, and very kind. I will call you soon for more work.
– Rosemont, Pa.
I want to thank you and your painters for doing such an excellent job on our repair and paint job. I greatly appreciated your flexibility and precision with the scheduling. You helped us to minimize the disruption to our lives caused by the painting and floor refinishing. As always, your painters were neat and courteous, and a pleasure with whom to work. In a day when too many service providers are incompetent, arrogant, or just plain disorganized, I appreciate your friendly and professional service.
– Narberth, Pa.
