REVIEWS OF Catchlight Painting IN Massachusetts

Annette Jacobs

I used many painters and painting companies in my life before being introduced to Catchlight Painting. Since I found them about 10 years ago, I have used no one else. They do all the indoor and outdoor painting of my home. All of the staff are incredibly pleasant, fun, reliable, hardworking, knowledgeable about kinds of paints, ways to paint, colors. Nigel Costelloe, the owner, has even told me when rooms I thought needed painting did not need to be painted. They review the work initially with great attention to detail and see things that I never see, even though I live in my home. The crews work with great attention to detail and do extremely thorough preparation, which, after all, is what makes the final job successful and lasting. Plus, they do such a thorough clean up each day that it's like no one is working in one's home. And, they are a joy to have around - kind, considerate, thoughtful. You might find you pay a bit more for Catchlight than for other painters, but it's definitely worth it. The work is better, cleaner, lasts longer. In the long run, you'll find it costs you less. It's a cliche, but "don't be penny wise and pound foolish."

The Catchlight team was great from beginning to end. The painters were on time, extremely polite and did a terrific job. Thank you and I look forward to recommending your work to others.

We keep coming back! Stellar crew that does impeccable work. Incredibly thoughtful and easy to work with. Worth any extra pennies if you want a truly brilliant result.

This is an excellent residential painting company that really cares for their employees and costumers.

Catchlight Painting repaired an extensive amount of peeling, cracks, stains and other water damage in my 1880's home. There were horsehair plaster walls to repair, delicate trim to stain and ceilings to patch. The work was completed expertly by a crew of painters that was a pleasure to have in my home, so much so that I was sorry to see them go. I walk in and out of the rooms painted by Catchlight every day, each time just loving the way they look. They did a terrific job -- I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Simply the best there is. Worth Every penny. You will never want them to leave. I needed help transforming a bathroom vanity into the piece I knew it could be. And if I was going to have it painted I wanted it painted by the best. Catchlight is the BEST; hands down; no competition. At the 11th hour of a bathroom renovation I spoke with Nigel Costello, the ever gracious owner of Catchlight Painting to see if they could fit me in quickly. This was a small job, but Nigel made it happen. A few days later one of the most impressive, kind, polite, and impeccably clean painters I have ever seen or met showed up at my doorstep at 8am sharp. I thought to myself: "I wish I owned a really big house so that I could have his painters there all the time!" Nigel's painters do impeccable work. They are courteous to a fault, fastidious and kind; just a pleasure to have in your home. Xavier, my gifted painter (I now seem to claim ownership!) transformed my vanity into something spectacular which is truly going to be the showpiece of my bathroom; incredibly thrilling! I can't thank Nigel enough for creating such a top notch company and Xavier for his beautiful work. It's just magic. Thank you Catchlight Painting!

After several years of experience with wrong advice and mediocre to bad painting jobs I lucked into Catchlight Painting. No other company or person is allowed to paint in my building. This past summer I also had Catchlight paint part of the exterior of my pitched roof triple decker; not only was I pleased by the outcome but neighbors on both sides and also across the street expressed appreciation for the meticulous adherence to lead paint issues as well as for the attention given to preperation, and for the excellence of final outcome. Catchlight is informative, considerate, and effective, with a fine sense of aesthetics. The Boston area is lucky to have them!

Nancy Gertner

Catchlight is the very best of painters we have used in the 30 years we have lived in our Home. The work is superb, with considerable attention to detail that is critical in a turn of the 19th century Victorian Home. Nigel even offers professional advice on colors and design. They are punctual and careful, clean up after their work (which is critical when the work is being done while we are working at home). I can not recommend them highly enough.

Stephen Modliszewski

I'm not a customer but this company is very helpful and are just generally good people.

Ellena Friedman

I never write reviews regardless of the ranking, but my experience with Catchlight Painting was exceptional. It is safe to say Catchlight Painting is catching. I have a recently purchased 1890 Victorian home with all the complications of horsehair plaster, calcimine ceilings, requiring significant plastering, and needing upgrades to capture the beauty of the home. Nevermind the dark green, orange and blue rooms that needed multiple coats of linen white paint. The Catchlight Painting team is exceptional all the way through. Yes, let it be said they are great painters; and they are professional, accommodating, friendly, have the highest work ethic, are perfectionist, and clean up all their work after each day. There were times my home looked like a cyclone hit it between the painting, carpentry, and electricial work, but when I returned home each day I found it clean and dust free. Amazing! While having work can be daunting, Catchlight Painting takes some of the air out of the balloon and makes it a reasonably civilized experience. Nigel gets a thank you for starting and leading a great company; Scott my foreman was the calm and steady all the way through; and Wanderson my daily paint lead was like a Brazilian army leader (and, I mean this in the kindest way. He had a plan each day, led the team with efficiency, checked with me that the plan was feasible, and is a lovely person.). There are so many others on the team. And, yes this is a team and the tone is set all the way through. You will hear Catchlight Painting is expensive and they certainly charge more than individual proprietors. BUT, if you want a company that brings the highest standard of quality, is able to keep an experienced and professional team in place throughout the year (which I believe adds to the standard of painters set by the company), stands by its work, and is heavily insured, you can't go wrong with Catchlight Painting.

I was lucky enough to find Catchlight Painting when I moved into my house in 1995. They were superb. All these years later I am still using them. I would never go to anyone else for painting. Why would I when I have the best?

I have always had a great experience with Catchlight. They are my go-to when I have a painting job. I have total trust that they will be professional and perform every job well in a timely manner. I highly recommend. They have come to my home a handful of times in the last 4 years and I will be calling them again the next time I need a painter. They are very responsive, pay attention to detail and listen to your requests.

Mike

Catchlight did a GREAT job. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Leslie Donnell

The Catchlight team has handled a number of paint jobs for me in the past year. Nigel's expertise in the painting process and industry is superb. The work done by Xavier and Wanderson was of exceptional quality. They were highly professional and very caring of my home. They left my place in perfect condition, almost as if they hadn't been there, but of course they had as the walls were resplendent with new color. I will use them in a heartbeat again and again.

Marilyn Albert

We are currently using Catchlight for an interior painting job. We are very happy with their professionalism, communication, cleanliness, skill, and friendliness! This job has been an excellent experience. So glad I found Catchlight.

Jenna Sullivan

Catchlight recently painted my kitchen cabinets (which were originally stained wood). Nigel, Scott, and team did a great job! I would highly recommend Catchlight and will call them again for future work. It took a couple months to get on the schedule, but Nigel was up front about timelines and work started on our cabinets as scheduled. Communication with Catchlight was easy. Scott, our foreman, provided good help in selecting the shade of white for the cabinets. He and his crew kept our kitchen clean and protected our new countertops and floor as they painted. Precise edging, obvious attention to detail - our cabinets look brand new! After (white cabinets) and before (wood stained cabinets) photos are included in this review. The final photos don’t really do the work justice.

Cindy Laughrea

I have worked with Catchlight painting for over the past 2 years. They do amazing work, clean, organized, professional and friendly. I first met them because they wanted to do a community service day for my work. They painted both of our shelters at The Second Step. 6 guys worked so fast I had to find more for them to do. This compnay is one that you can trust to do the best professional work. And the owner Nigel is generous, knowledgeable and so sweet. I highly recommend them.

Nigel at Catchlight Painting was referred to me in 2009, and I have been using them ever since with absolute confidence. I was looking for a company who understood, appreciated and had the knowledge to prepare the narrow clapboards of my 1920's home properly for an optimum exterior paint job, as proper preparation is 9/10's of the job. Nigel and his talented crew were the perfect balance of personal and professional. They are a lead certified company, and the crew understands the materials they use and the best ways and times to both remove and apply paints and stains. Everyone at Catchlight seems to take their job seriously, and I never felt I had to supervise. Whether it was painters or the kind and conscientious man who cleans my gutters twice a year, I know I am in good hands, my home was being protected, and the best possible job was being done. If you drive by and see a Catchlight truck in front of a home, as I did two summers ago, you will see as I did, that the property and landscape will be protected, and workers will be working. Professionals all the way! I had a large front porch built of a special wood, and had many concerns about it's proper staining, maintenance and continued care. No question seemed to small for Nigel, and he always got back to me promptly. The service and work has been impeccable. This spring I have hired Nigel and Catchlight to do plastering and painting of my interior, and I have no doubt his interior crews will produce the same quality I've come to expect from Catchlight.

Rich Carey

Always fast and professional. We have used them twice and always happy with their work.

Sue Hall

Great experience with Nigel, Scott and team painting 3 rooms, 2 floors and some newly installed molding that needed a lot of prep work. The communication, professionalism, and quality of the work from the team were absolutely superb. Work started and completed on time. In addition, the crew was very generous in completing extra tasks I assumed I would be doing myself, like removing unwanted hardware from trim. Couldn't be happier with the job.

Scott Maxwell

The team at Catchlight Painting is fantastic. Nigel comes and gives his recommendations and estimates; the team comes on time; the painters are very good, experienced, careful, and excellent; and the team cleans up after itself. What could be better! I have used them several times in Boston and will call them next time I have a painting job!

Cass Miller

Catchlight recently worked on our exterior porches and windows. The painters were very professional, courteous and clean. It was a pleasure working with all of the members of the Catchlight team!! We look forward to working with them again in the future.

After careful thought we decided to paint a wall with Idea Paint and needed to find a contractor to help execute this service. The space we chose for the Idea Paint (whiteboard paint) is a space for our office to have a place for our employees to brainstorm. The primary wall in this space is a curved wall and we were not sure this would work for the space. Catchlight Painting helped us from start to finish. They educated us on the safety of how the product has to be applied. They were not only so helpful their pricing was reasonable and we were able to schedule all of the specifics within a few weeks of the first consultation We were very pleased with the work done here at our offices in Newton. Nick was promptly on time and so friendly on both days he was in our office. He went out of his way to help us. We had a separate wall not included in our services, where the building painters did not do a good job. They left so many clumps and imperfections on this wall we were placing a graphic on. Without question, Nick sanded this wall for us, by hand, and cleaned up everything so the graphic sat smoothly. Catchlight Painting didn't even include that in their invoice! We don’t have an office manager and to tell you the truth a lot of those duties fall on me. He was so accommodating and really made this project go smoothly. Nick, Nigel, Scott and the whole team at Catchlight Painting were such a Nick was so friendly and respectful of our space. We all felt at ease when he was onsite. The Idea Paint looks amazing. We have put this room to good use and can now use this curved wall, which was previously unusable. Thanks to the team at Catchlight Painting our office has a great new space for us to collaborate.

We had an issue in our kitchen thank to a neighbor's radiator that leaked into the ceiling. Catchlight came and gave us an estimate and then actually did the work for that price! No games or tricks. The best part was the way they left our kitchen, which was spotless. Not only was the job done well and for the price quoted but they tarped everything in the kitchen so that they left no mess behind whatsoever. Nigel and his crew are consummate professionals. Thanks Catchlight!

I was referred to Nigel at Catchlight Painting in 2002 and have been using Catchlight ever since, mainly for exterior house projects requiring paint and stain. Nigel is professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable. He does a thorough walk-around and careful examination of what’s needed, and over the years has made recommendations for new and improved paints and stains. Crew member “Tommy” worked for several weeks at my house this past summer and did a superb job. He was punctual, diligent, friendly and meticulous. Can’t say enough good things about him! It is a pleasure working with the Catchlight team.

Eve Sorum

We just had Catchlight come and do interior work for us for the second time; they are one of the few companies that I know I will continue to use, since the experience is always great on all levels! They are meticulous, thorough, and thoughtful. They are truly lovely people to have working in your house, and they always do a fantastic job. They will be coming back to do some exterior painting for us in the spring, and I am confident that the experience will be, once again, perfect.

Jules Ko Myung

We had Catchlight paint 6 separate rooms/spaces in our home in Newton just hours before we moved in because there were many other schedules of work being done on the house to juggle. They did a fabulous job. As Nigel did our initial walk through, he was most informative, courteous, and helpful in giving his feedback on what we were dealing with, and what to look out for that needs to be fixed that the seller's crew did. He also went beyond the scope of the project to make sure our little one's bedroom door ways had the proper work done to keep any old leaded paint from chipping off. On the first day of their work, the foreman kept me updated via phone texts, and I was very grateful for the information and communication. I am not sure how many crew members were involved, but I saw at least a handful of them, all professionally dressed, career painters, focused on their tasks every time I dropped by, unannounced, on other matters of moving. They use paints that are VOC-free, so there were no traces of paint smells when we stepped into the house. Their attention to details were meticulous, and I have very high standards to visual details and presentations. No little splatters under fixtures, and painter tape traces left behind, no brush strokes, or lint marks from cheap rollers. They also had to paint some of the newly renovated details of the house that a construction crew did, and they made it so easy for us, and did all the coordinating with the construction company on their own, and worked around each other at the same time to meet our move-in date. When the crew wrapped up and the foreman said his goodbyes, I was almost sad to see them go, knowing the rest of the things we have to deal with moving wasn't going to be anywhere as pleasant. After the job was done and we moved in, we've had other residential professionals in our home for unrelated updates and quotes. Unprovoked by us, each person remarked how hard it was to paint an older home like hours with hundreds of years of paint and wallpaper underneath, but how well it was done in our home. It gave us much comfort and pride that at least, some things have been updated to the best level possible, and worth all our time and investment. Thank you Catchlight Painting for all your excellent work. We look forward to future updates with you, and leave the painting to the utmost professionals.

Catchlight helped to assess a longstanding problem in our old home - chipping ceilings. We contracted with them to repaint the ceilings and walls once they had been repaired. Rather than glossing over the issue, they recommended re-plastering the affected ceilings and referred us to a terrific plasterer who was also very professional and did a great job. Catchlight worked with us to coordinate the scheduling of the two jobs - plastering and then painting. Their communication was top notch - from the original estimate to the work completion. They had great attention to detail, were remarkably neat and we were very comfortable having them in our home. I would recommend them to anyone looking to have their house professionally painted, without hesitation.
