A few years ago we bought a hundred year old villa, which needed a major outside restoration involving soft washing, masonry, carpentry, window replacement and painting. We are more than happy to have engaged from July to October this year Smyth Painting and their affiliated companies which did a fantastic and most excellent job to bring the villa back to its original glory ahead of schedule. The project supervision and coordination was phenomenal ! All the people and teams have been super friendly, extremely hard working , easy to work and communicate with. Their attention to details and most excellent and creative craftsmanship tops everything we have experienced nationally and internationally. They are simply the best. Also, their property management division took care of our chimneys, fireplace and septic system in an exceptional way. We cannot thank them enough for all their phenomal dedication and work and highly recommend them to anyone, who needs any restoration done reliably, in time and at a very reasonable price ! Thank you all very much !Posted on David RobinsonNovember 14, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Jay, Jeremy & Robson did a spectacular job, painting my entryway, living room, dining room, kitchen, upper hall and guest bathroom. These gentlemen were quiet, kind and immaculate workers. My ceilings needed some work and all were fixed like brand new. The trim, window frames and doors all look brand new. My place looks amazing and I will rehire next year to complete the TV room and Bedrooms.Posted on Jeffrey RosowFebruary 12, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Smyth painting did an outstanding job in painting our kitchen and living room! After the wonderful job their sister company Cabinet Revival did in redoing our kitchen, we were just as impressed with the same high quality of workmanship of Smyth painting. The team of Jay, Jeremy, Robson and Byron were all extremely professional, eager to please, and a joy to work with. They were also neat, efficient, and extremely accommodating to our needs as was Doug the owner along with Sherry and Maryah in the office. Based on our experience I would highly recommend this company for the quality of their work, their professionalism, along with how extremely easy and accommodating everyone was to work with!
