I cannot express how pleased I am to have come across That 1 Painter North Detroit. I had them paint my new kitchen cabinets and dining area. I searched for a long time to compare quotes from many companies before settling on them. Their pricing is extremely competitive, and the quality of work they provided showed that I was getting the absolute best for a very affordable price. No sloppy work. Fine lines. Attention to detail. On top of that, the workers were extremely flexible, finding time with my busy schedule to get the job done. I also can’t speak more highly of their customer service. Every single question I asked, the team took the time to answer, and they made sure I was kept up to date on every step of the project. If you choose to hire them, you can rest assured that you are getting an honest and talented group that will get the job done. 10/10 recommend, and I will be using them in the future for all of my painting needs.

Had a great experience with Josh and the team. Great quality work, very fair prices, I would definitely use them again. I even appreciated how they took the extra time to tape around each bottom beam between the rafters and the wall. It gives it a more finished look. Check out the before & after photos. Very pleased.
