Customer Reviews

We needed an exterior paint job for our 100-year-old Portland bungalow, and the work Portland Painting & Restoration did for us has left us over the moon. Their entire team was nothing short of exceptional. Our project required difficult prep work, experience of correctly dealing with lead paint, undoing and repairing previously done poor craftsmanship, and taking the time, patience, and care to give our home the love it deserved to look its absolute best. Comparing them with other companies we worked with is night and day. It was immediately apparent that they were better trained and accustomed to working on older Portland homes than anyone else. The amount of care and craft they put into the prep alone was exactly the attention to detail you'd want to see in a project like this. And the end result has left us so happy. We have delighted in watching neighbors and strangers pass by and take pictures of our new paint job, and have loved chatting with them about the exceptional work that was done. Recommending Portland Painting & Restoration has been a no-brainer. All have agreed their work looks outstanding. PPR's communication, transparency, deep knowledge, craftsmanship, skill, *pride in their work*—everything top to bottom—these are the professionals you are looking for. No question about it.

We had a wonderful experience working with Portland Painting & Restoration. They completely restored our exterior siding with a fresh new stain and also painted several interior walls. The quality of their work was excellent. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the people. Alex, our Project Manager, and Lexi, our Project Coordinator, were absolute gems. They were responsive, organized, incredibly easy to work with, and genuinely cared about making sure everything went smoothly. The team also went above and beyond by helping us coordinate other trusted trades for additional exterior and interior projects, which was such a huge help. That level of service is hard to find these days. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Portland Painting & Restoration and will absolutely be working with them again on future projects!

Excellent team and top quality house painting. We had a full house painting as well as some dryrot deck repair. The team provided excellent deck repair, spent time on through paint prep (peeling off lifting paint, sanding, etc), careful overall house painting and meticulous fine detail work. The outcome is a beautifully painted home. I also appreciated that while there was a bit of accidental glass damage in the process, the team was quick with response and fair and efficient in remediation. Overall, I recommend Portland Painting and Restoration for good communication, fantastic carpentry repair, excellent quality painting work and a top notch team. Thank you!!!

As a born Portlander, I look for businesses that have a track record in the local area for great results over time. I know that more than advertising, their future lies in satisfied customers and a market reputation that is brand solid. PP&R fits that model. And they exceeded my expectations. First, they listened to our needs. Second, they delivered a competitive bid that included solutions we hadn't considered. Third, I can;t say enough for the crew. All of the team members we met (and I think we met them all!) were professional, thoughtful and considerate. All along, it was clear our happiness was their goal. I cannot recommend PP&R highly enough.

Portland Painting and Restoration came to my rescue after a disastrous experience with a remodeling company which ruined three elegant doors, parts of the old oak flooring, and a interior wall and staircase. Out of four bids, PPR gave me the most detailed quote and was the only company that seemed confident they could bring my home back to its original beauty. Not only did they more than meet my expectations, every one of the employees were specialized in their areas of expertise and a complete delight to work with. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat.

Wow, what a great experience we had with Portland Painting and Restoration. It was night and day from a previous company that we used. Alex, the project manager and estimator is an absolute pro. He is extremely knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, and most of all, a fun guy to work with. Communication was top notch. Lexi kept us up to date on the project, and was really nice to work with. Our storm windows were painted perfectly. They were painted in the shop and so the finish was flawless. Robert, the painter, was incredibly nice, and he came out on the delivery day and hand touched up anything he noticed before he left. We were so happy with how the storm windows turned out, that Alex is already working on another project for us. We will be trusting Portland Painting and Restoration with all of our future painting needs, inside and out.

A fantastic job done by Portland Painting & Restoration! We had 7 new custom pine windows installed in our old craftsman home, and I needed someone to stain them to match the rest of the millwork in the house. Alex and his crew did an outstanding job, and communication was superb every step of the way. We were out of town while the job was done and had a package arrive early, but Alex and the team unpacked it and made sure it got into the freezer right away. That is just one example of the level of customer service they provide. I have never worked with anyone that had such prompt and attentive communication. I highly recommend them for their skill and expertise, and even more so for their customer service and just general good vibes! Thank you!

Best decision we've ever made for our home - going with the crew from Portland Painting & Restoration! Skilled, professional, personable, reliable. They coordinated carpentry work to remove multiple areas of dry rot, rebuild our front-stair railing to be more in line with our house's architecture, and renovate our aging back deck. They also connected us with a lovely color designer. We couldn't be more pleased!

PPR is so great to work with! I went back and forth on what I wanted to do quite a bit, and they were super responsive and helpful. They’ve done two rounds of painting in my home, and I have zero doubt that I’ll be working with them on future projects. Their crew was so nice and respectful - I work from home and barely noticed they were here, they left each day with everything cleaned up, and were super sweet with my dogs (who were not as nice to them 😅). They finished in the time estimated, which surprised me just because there was so much detailed work to do. They patched up a bunch of holes in the walls as well, and now you’d never know they were there. From end to end, working with PPR is always a great experience, they’re all super professional and kind, and the results are exactly what I wanted 🙌

So extremely happy with PPR's work! They painted the entire exterior of my 1920s craftsman and did all the leg work to coordinate with the lead paint removal company as well. We encountered some challenges along the way, but the team was communicative and professional throughout (shout-out to Alex, Abe, and Lexi!), and did an outstanding paint job to boot! They really brought my craftsman back to life. I can't thank them enough. If you're considering any paint and restoration, I highly recommend PPR!
