Kitchen Cabinets
"Chris went out of his way for us and did a fantastic job! Our kitchen cabinets look fantastic; and he even affixed our new hardware and corrected a few problems with the doors and hinges. The meticulous quality of his work made the cabinets look factory-new. Every step of the way he clearly and courteously communicated what he was doing, why, and when he thought he'd complete the job. And, for the work he did, the price was very reasonable as well. His attention to detail and craftsmanship, as well the incredibly quick turnaround time, will make him our go-to guy whenever we need interior paint done in our home again! Thank you so, so much!"

"We have used Chris The Painter services twice. Last month he painted our kitchen cabinets. We love them. They were a funky oak color & now they are a beautiful ivory color. It totally changed the look of our kitchen. Chris arrived on time & worked nonstop the entire time he was at our home. The cabinets look so good. He did an awesome job on them. Chris knows what he is doing & we will definitely be calling him again if we decide to have any more painting done." - Cindy & Mark Wyand, March 2021
"I have just finished re-reading the reviews from other customers, and I'm not sure that I can add any more in the way of praise of Chris' work. Chris was recommended to us by Home Depot for painting our outdated oak kitchen cabinets. He contacted me promptly to set up a meeting and I was impressed with him from our first conversation, even before I met him. When he came to give an estimate, I could tell that he was interested in creating exactly the look we wanted, and that's just what he did! -- and at a reasonable price. We are 100% satisfied with the beautiful result. So, I can repeat all the adjectives used in the previous letters: courteous, professional, perfectionist, prompt, ethical, knowledgeable..... they are all true. Thank you, Chris, for taking on the challenge of creating our beautiful new kitchen. You did it, and it's perfect!"

"We had Chris paint our kitchen cabinets and island. We were contemplating whether to get the cabinets painted for awhile. Now we wish we would have gotten them done a long time ago! Chris did a great job and took his time. He was punctual and got back to you when promised. Our kitchen came out beautiful!"
- Michelle & Tom, May 2016
"I was looking for someone to paint my kitchen cabinets that were the original ones from forty three years ago. I was contacted by several individuals and companies to give me an estimate. It took some of them several days to get back to me and when they did, the estimates were usually higher than what I wanted to spend. When Chris contacted me he came out the same day and after about 20 minutes he gave me an estimate, which was very acceptable to me. He was able to start the next day. He worked around my schedule and I always felt very comfortable with him in my home. I can't say enough about how pleased I am about his meticulous work and his professionalism. My kitchen looks modern now and I love it. If I ever have the need again, I would definitely have Chris do work in or around my home. I have and will continue to recommend him to others." Thanks Chris for a great job." - Pam, February 2016
"We heard about Chris through some friends that have also had Chris paint for them. Originally, we set out to paint just a few rooms. As we began to see how talented Chris is, we had him consult with us about paint options for giving our slightly dated kitchen cabinets a great new look. Chris ended up doing a paint/glaze process on our cabinets that ended up looking phenominal. We feel like we saved thousands by reviving our old cabinets instead of replacing. Chris does excellent work, is as neat and unobtrusive as a painter could possibly be, is prompt and reliable and basically conducts business on a handshake. We would use Chris again or recommend Chris to anyone needing a great painter at a fair price." - Steve & Dianne Smetana
Room Painting & Other Jobs
"Thank you for doing such a wonderful job painting our family room, dining room, living room, foyer as well as the staircase and all the trim. What a fantastic and detailed job it was and it looks beautiful. We appreciate the time you took to perfect every detail. You come with our highest recommendation."
- Sue and Lou Gigliotti, March 2021
"It’s hard to find someone that you can trust to do work in your home! However, we’re so glad that we found Chris! Chris showed up on time and worked hard throughout the day! I really appreciate Chris’s attention to detail and making sure that the job was done right (caulk, clean lines, good paint coverage, using drop cloths)! We had a lot of nail/screw holes from wall hangings that needed to be filled and I wasn’t able to tell where they were after he was done. Chris even did a great job touching up the seams in our ceiling and then painting it a clean white. When the job was done it felt like a friend was leaving our home after a short stay! We will be glad to have Chris back and we have already given his contact information to a few friends. We love our “new” home thanks to you, Chris!" - Tom & Coni Antal, December 2020
"We just can’t say enough how happy we were with the job Chris did in our home. He removed 2 rooms of wallpaper which is a terribly tedious job & then painted the rooms for us. His attention to detail is amazing. We were so very pleased with his work ethic. He was on time, personable and did a terrific job. We highly recommend Chris. We had other painters last summer & they did not do nearly as good a job as Chris. We definitely will be using Chris the Painter again!" - Cindy & Mark Wyand, March 2020
"We want to say thank you for doing such an excellent job on our master bathroom Chris! Your attention to detail was amazing! Fixing all the imperfections and neatness were so appreciated! We are so thankful you were referred to us after our prior bad experience with another painter. Your pricing was very fair too. You are hands down the best painter we have ever hired over the years, and wish we had found you sooner! Please don’t hesitate to use us as a reference if needed. We will be referring all our friends in need of a painter your way. Thanks again!" - Brenda and Glen Witsaman, January 2020
"Chris was absolutely AMAZING!! From start to finish Chris was professional. I appreciated his honesty (sometimes hard to find these days), attention to detail, fair and reasonable pricing, turnaround time and his commitment to keep his word (on time, every time). He transformed my home!! Just know, before he finished, I requested another quote to invite him back!! He's Right!!! His Business is Repeat Business!! I am well beyond pleased with the work Chris did for me. I'd recommend him in a heartbeat!!" - Veronica Motley, September 2018
"A friend of mine recommended Chris, and he did not disappoint! We had the living room, office, basement and master bedroom painted for a reasonable price. From the starting process of getting the quote to the final result, we could not have been happier. We added the basement to be painted a week before the job and he was able to rework his schedule to accommodate an extra day on our job, which we so appreciated. He took the time to explain what was going on in each room and is extremely detail-oriented. As a first time home owner, Chris would even help point out certain things around the house completely unrelated to painting just to help us out! We will be calling Chris again when we have the rest of our home and our kitchen cabinets painted. Great guy!"
- Stephanie Danesis, April 2018
"Chris is a terrific painter! He is very neat and thorough. We are very happy with the job he did removing wallpaper, priming and painting most of the rooms in our house. We will have him back to do the rest!"
- Sue & Terry Oetzel, April 2018
"I found Chris’s name from my Medina Home Depot. I was a bit hesitant about using another contractor as I have had so many issues with them recently. However, Chris was terrific. He arrived exactly when he said he would be at my home. The quotes were fair and competitive. Last, but most importantly, Chris did a fantastic job on my bedroom walls. He was able to patch two large holes that needed fixing. After the paint was applied and dried, you could not see where the wall damage had been in my master bedroom. The ceilings and walls looked new! I will use him in the future to paint the rest of my home and any future work that I need done. Great Painter!" - Nan Swartz, April 2018
"We noticed that Chris and his business were unique, from the start. All the "little things" - like promptness, taking the time to answer questions, saying what you do and doing what you say - were refreshingly noticeable. Your goals are his goals. Oh, and his quality is second to none. We are hard-pressed to think of a good reason why we wouldn't contact Chris for future projects." - John & Marcie Jordan, March 2018
"This guy is incredible! I had contacted Chris about painting my living room and kitchen on a Saturday and he showed up that same day with a quote! He completed the job in a very timely manner and did a flawless job. From our initial contact to the completed project, he was very professional, courteous, prompt, and trustworthy. He accommodated my schedule and I felt very comfortable with him in my home. I have already scheduled for him to paint the rest of my home. I highly recommend Chris for anyone’s painting needs, you will not be disappointed!" - Jenna Loader, January 2018
"I have nothing but good things to say about the job Chris did for me. He was an absolute professional; accurate, efficient, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I do not hesitate to recommend him. I will certainly use his services again." - Ray Heise, November 2017
"Thank you, Chris, for the very professional and beautiful paint job in our dining room. You are the neatest painter I have ever seen. Everything was cleaned up so nicely. The dining room looks wonderful, edges and everything. You even sanded where our greyhound rubbed the wall and it looks great. You are so nice, personable and on-time. We will be contacting you in the near future to paint more rooms in our house! Thank you." - Barbara Bartholomew, October 2017
"We recently contracted with Chris for painting and were very pleased with his work. We got a referral for him from our homeowners association. We obtained two quotes and Chris really impressed us from our first meeting with him. He was very detailed about the work he would do and took the time to explain the types of paint he would use and the prep prior to painting. None of these details were discussed from the other contractor on the second quote. With Chris, we liked the fact that he does all the work himself. He is definitely a perfectionist in his work and arrived promptly as scheduled. We definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future."

Marilyn and Don Fadenholz, July 2017
"I barely know where to begin with my praise for Chris' completion of a large project at my house! I've had many negative and mediocre painting experiences so they have provided a solid basis for comparison, and I, frankly, have nothing but positive comments about Chris and his work.
I received his name from an acquaintance whom I know to be particular about work done at her own home. From the onset Chris returned my phone call promptly and arranged a meeting to assess the job at my convenience. He arrived on schedule and conducted a detailed inspection. In fact, he advised that I find someone else to clean walls and ceilings that had been soiled by a faulty furnace rather than my paying his fees as a professional to accomplish the task. I always appreciate someone's attempt to save me expense while not sacrificing quality! Shortly thereafter, I received an email with an attachment stating the price and a detailed description of the services to be conducted, including the brand and types of paints that would be used.
We subsequently agreed upon dates for his work after he explained that it would require 4-5 days for him to complete the job. He candidly admitted at the onset that his calendar was booked solidly and that he would not be available until mid-August. He willingly accommodated my preference for start times although I know that his preference would have been earlier than mine. Again, he arrived on a timely basis each day.
Chris' painting skills are flawless, and he strives for perfection despite everyone's knowing that our homes have not been constructed perfectly. My house especially required a lot of detailed work because of many doors, windows and the fireplace. I've had almost 24 hours of living with his results and have not a single complaint. And this is before blinds have been reinstalled after having been professionally cleaned. In short, there is no protection for the daylight exposing his work. It is truly flawless, and I consider myself to be highly critical.
Beyond the quality of Chris' work are so many intangibles as well. He is well spoken and displays many positive ethics. He kept his materials out of my way and left the house in a very livable state each day. Moreover, when he completed the job, he restored everything to its original condition (i.e., furniture and wall hangings at original placement, electric and switch plates replaced, etc.). I've never expected such a disrupting event to be almost pleasant while it was in progress or to experience such satisfaction afterwards. Thank you, Chris the Painter (330-614-0340)!" - Kathi Geary, August 2016
"I just had three rooms painted by Chris, he is a perfectionist. I have contracted for him to do several more. The work was completed in allotted time agreed on. He makes suggestions when it will enhance the project. He arrived always on time. Returned phone calls, made note and repeated special instructions. I will recommend Chris to any inquirers." - Helga Reid, April 2016
“I stumbled upon Chris accidently when looking for a new painter and that certainly worked out good for us! We only needed one bedroom painted and Chris did a great job. He returned my phone call immediately and booked me into his schedule very quickly. Chris is personable, prompt, neat, and very thorough. He’s a really nice guy besides being a really good painter! I will definitely use Chris again and would recommend him to others."
- Shirley Z, February 2016
"I hired Chris to bail me out on the fence that I started to stain way back in July. By bail me out I mean that there was no way i could stain both the inside and outside before it got cold with my busy schedule. Chris agreed to paint the outside for a reasonable price and I'm beyond relieved that I asked him to do it. He did an outstanding job considering the pain in the butt job it was. It is a 4,000 square foot shadow box so there was a ton of back brushing to be done after spraying. Chris started the outside of the fence and came everyday barring weather until it was done. Like I said, I'm beyond glad that I hired him to do it. Outstanding job!"
- Lance Strother
"Chris was a great find... referred to us by Home Depot. He responded quickly to our call and showed up the same day to give a quote! We are very happy with the quality of work and timeframe to complete the job at a fair price and would definitely use him again if needed for another painting project!" - Mark Jankowski
"I contacted Chris after a friend of mine gave me his information. I had two rooms that I was trying to have painted while my wife was out of town (it was to be a surprise). I called Chris on a Thursday and he was able to squeeze me into his busy schedule. The rooms to be painted were the master bedroom and the master bath. Each room offered various challenges, which required a professional painter. Chris did an amazing job! I am really amazed how the rooms turned out! I couldn’t be happier. Chris is very precise and very talented. He arrived precisely when he said he would, he went above and beyond to make my project turn out amazing. He is very organized and efficient. My wife arrived home and was blown away by her “surprise”. Thank you Chris for everything!" - Robert Gehring
"Chris did an excellent job painting my entire house! Aside from putting paint on a wall (which a lot of people can do), he uses several techniques to fix the imperfections that every house has. Look no further if you want a painter that is fairly priced, attentive to your needs and loves his work!" - Michael Thompson
"I have known Chris for many years, well before his becoming Chris the Painter, and can attest to his sense of responsibility and his strong work ethic. In addition to painting trim and doors, Chris repaired considerable drywall damage in advance of painting ceilings. Chris accomplished his work both meticulously and timely. I recommend Chris for his manual skill as well as his customer relation skill." - Ken Dayson
"Chris has done an incredible job on our double story foyer! He also did some exterior trim work and is about to power wash and stain our deck. I could not be more pleased with his attention to detail, his reasonable prices, his dependability, and his meticulous approach! The foyer took a few days, I felt comfortable with him in our home and when he left for the evening, you would not have known that there was any work being done due to his extreme care in organizing his supplies. I will recommend Chris to anyone that is looking for a professional painter. Thank you, Chris!" - Terese Kurkul
"Had a great time watching Chris paint four rooms exquisitely. He is jovial and industrious at the same time. Did everything I asked him to do. Thanks for the great job done." - Jeannette Zebris
"Chris was referred to me by friends whom he did extensive work for, needless to say I was impressed with his work that he completed for them. It was time to repaint my master bath and there was no question on whom I was going to call to do the job. He did a GREAT job, in a very prompt and timely fashion, I hardly knew he was there, other than having a fantastic paint job on the master bath. I would recommend Chris to anyone and will not hesitate calling him back if I ever need painting done. Thanks again Chris !!!! It looks GREAT !!!!!"
- Jackie Hughes
"Chris performed well above expectations! He showed up on time, went the extra mile and did superior work. Without hesitation, he is trustworthy and reliable. I look forward to him doing more paint jobs for my home in the near future." - Kay Bertermann
"I recently did a complete remodel and addition on a century home. It was a total "gut job" so I had new surfaces on all of the walls and ceilings as well as new wood doors, windows, and wood trim throughout. All of the wood was getting a stain with paint going on all of the other surfaces. When the trim was delivered, it was in a stack about the size of a large car! Overwhelming! Chris was my painter on the job and I couldn't be happier. His attention to detail and personal standards are incredibly high. I really felt that he treated it as if he was painting and staining his own home. It's been about a year now and I still find myself marveling at his workmanship. I could NEVER cut-in a line that sharp. I've had a few much smaller paining jobs since moving in and while I could do it myself, I always call Chris. He gets it done. The RIGHT way." - Mark Masa
"Chris shows up bright and cheerful and always on time. I found him to be task driven, quick, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable about the painting process. He is very enthusiastic about his work, and does whatever it takes to make the job turn out right. Chris has completed several jobs at my business and home, I have always been satisfied with his work and fair price. I would without hesitation recommend him to family and friends." - Paul Hummel III (Hummel Funeral Homes and Crematories, Akron and Copley, Ohio)
"Love working with Chris. He is clean, timely and does a great job!" - Jenny Hummel
"Chris is the ONLY painter I will use. He is great! I have had a lot of work done to my house and Chris is the most reliable, dependable, honest and talented person I have worked with. He takes pride in his work and is a pleasure to be around. I would highly recommend Chris and intend on using him again in the near future!"
- Kelley St.Clair
"Chris was great! Punctial and very responsible and trustworthy. His work is superb and he is very meticulous. I highly recommend him. He even loves dogs!" - Irene Steffas
"Chris turned my ugly deck into a welcoming landscape. Only problem is now I have to buy new deck furniture because the nice new-looking deck makes the old table and chairs look very out of place. He painted my front porch as well. Both turned out beautiful. He is meticulous and thorough and a pleasure to be around."
- Kathy Brennan
"Chris has painted several rooms in my home and I am always completely happy with the work he does. He is meticulous about details and I have had many friends positively comment about the quality of the professional paint job. Chris is very personable and friendly which makes him easy to work with. He readily accommodates personal schedules and arrives timely and leaves the house as clean as the way he found it. I have recommended him to many friends and will continue to do so!" - Jennifer Chido
