What people are saying.

  • "The Board of Directors of Oswego Village Townhomes would like you to know how much we enjoyed having you paint our complex this July and August (2018). From our first pre-bid conference through the end of the project, we were impressed with everyone we contacted. You and your company exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond to serve us. For example, during the project it was discovered that painting of the trim around our deck was not part of your bid. You graciously agreed to paint this area without an additional fee. Additionally, as concerns or questions arose, everything was met with a “yes”. We would like to make a special mention to Bryson and his team of painters. These guys were upbeat, happy, and professional, and work well together. They obviously take their jobs seriously, do their job with pride and reflect very positively on your company. We would highly recommend you for any painting project and trust we will have a long-term relationship."

  • "As a member of the redecorating committee for the Streetcar Lofts Condominium building, I am happy to recommend Verhaalen Painting. From the beginning of the process, they were very professional and competent. Their bid quite favorably compared to others in both scope of work and cost. They did exactly as they were contracted to do. They arrived on time, with all their equipment and worked in a very professional and unobtrusive manner. The initial surface preparation was performed efficiently and neatly and according to schedule. They worked methodically through our building with a minimum of inconvenience and virtually no mess. The workers were polite, friendly and very hard working. Everything was taped beautifully, sanded smooth and the area carefully cleaned before moving to the next area. They exhibited the same diligence with the painting working remarkably neatly and thoroughly. The work was completed within our expected time range and the results were beautiful. The owners have been delighted with new and fresh appearance of our building."

  • "I’m an HOA board member and I recently headed up our hallway repainting project. I’m pleased to recommend Verhaalen Painting to others. Ken Verhaalen (Owner) and Doug Flohr (Operations Manager) promptly responded to my request for an estimate. I toured them through the building and was impressed with their questions and suggestions. Their bid was the lowest we received, but there was no “skimping” on quality or timing. Their crew arrived as scheduled and did an outstanding job — completing two coats, plus two trim colors on nine floors in only four days. The crew members were skillful with great attention to detail. Our building lacks for service parking or bathroom, but they accommodated those inconveniences with ease. Residents found the crew to be considerate and accommodating. The finished work was flawless and Verhaalen even offered to come back after our new carpet install and do any touch-ups at no additional charge. I wholeheartedly give Verhaalen my endorsement. "

  • "The View Condominiums in Portland contracted with Verhaalen Painting to paint our six two-story, 1945 buildings and were thrilled with the job they did. The team of six, headed up by Efren, was so professional, did an outstanding job, and everyday cleaned up after themselves, making sure everything was neat and tidy, and in its place. Having worked with a colorist, we picked paints that would have different applications on each of our buildings to add interest and variety. Each building also had different architectural features which required close attention be paid to the color plan that had been developed. And there were old wooden windows that needed to be painted to match the newer fiberglass ones. Efren was very careful to note which sections should have each color and remedied the one mix-up immediately. The team was not only friendly with owners, but also courteous and respectful of everyone's needs. It was a joy to watch how the team split up their assignments and worked diligently to give us a wonderful new look. We can't provide enough superlatives for the work that Verhaalen and their exceptional team did for us."

  • "The Board of Directors of the NorthWynd Condominium Association is pleased to recommend Verhaalen Painting, Inc. We engaged their services in 2013 to paint our property of 200+ units in SW Vancouver. Of the several vendors we evaluated, Verhaalen's approach to bidding the large job was the most comprehensive and thoughtful. We had a high degree of attention on ensuring communication with residents was well cared for, some of the more technical aspects of the paint job were attended to, and that we could really depend on the paint job to provide its two critical benefits for the community: one - protect the buildings from the elements, and two - look fantastic. From the beginning of our bid solicitation process to then end of the project and managing warranty claims, Verhaalen has been professional and attentive. Now--more than a year afterward--the paint continues to look fantastic and we are more than pleased with the work conducted. We have enjoyed consistent customer support for addressing minor issues, and believe that we have a strong long-term partner. "

  • "I just want to thank you for the excellent paint job your crew, led by Danny, did for my home as part of the Shadow Spring project in 2014, and I apologize for taking so long to send this. I am so pleased with the work your crew did, and Danny especially paid very close attention to the extra paint details that my neighbor and I wanted on our common-wall town home. The result is that it went from my least favorite on the street to my most favorite! Not only that, I continue to receive compliments on the beautiful new colors as well as on the excellent paint job. I am so proud of the work Danny and your crew did. Please extend my heartfelt thanks once again to Danny and all the crew who worked so diligently on the 2014 Shadow Spring project in Beaverton."

  • "On behalf of the Board of Directors and the owners of the Promenade at Bethany Village, I would like to express our thanks and appreciation to you, your company and your entire crew for a job "well done"! Our project included many different facets: painting our buildings and doors, sealing each deck, painting all decks and property railings, as well as our garage security wrought iron. By meeting with Doug and Bryson weekly, we were able to keep our residents up to date on what had been completed and what the following week's work schedule would be. Our residents could then plan ahead as to when the crew would be on their decks. If a resident needed help moving something on their deck, your crew helped with a smile. From moving a high lift so someone could get their car out of a garage, to opening a door for a lady with her arms full, the painters would stop what they were doing to help. They were always polite and courteous. Bryson and his crew were always ready and willing to answer any question an owner may ask. I enjoyed working with Bryson on a daily basis. He insured the project was always clean and picked up at the end of each work day. Our buildings and decks look great! We are happy owners and I would be very willing to recommend Verhaalen Painting to anyone considering them for their project. From start to finish, their professionalism is top notch."

Not only does my patio look great, but my interactions with your staff were very pleasant. Most of my conversations were with David, who was respectful and always willing to discuss and do whatever needed to be done. His attention to detail and his attitude were remarkably service-oriented. He represents your crew and your firm very well. I would definitely recommend Verhaalen Painting. Thanks for doing a professional job and leaving a good impression."

  • "I am an owner/resident at Summerlinn Estates. Your company has just completed a big painting job here on our condominiums and I am sure it was a challenging task. This evening I sat out on my terrace (I have two of them) for the 1st time since I was able to put out my patio furniture, rugs, plants, and the usual stuff since the completion of painting. My intent for this letter is to say a Big “THANK YOU” for the beautiful and careful job your painters did on my unit front and back. I am on the 2nd level with obstacles for your guys and they made it. The paint job is far superior than it was when I moved in new 4 years ago. It now looks finished and inviting. Thank you for a very professional job, your guys were great…polite and left no messes. They even moved my big plant pots with care. The place looks like Verhaalen Painting gave us a face-lift!"

    — Carol Garnett, Summerlinn Estates

  • "I must say that it's few and far between that you can deal with someone or a company such as yours, when it's all said and done and everyone, "especially myself", can say that was a job well done at a very reasonable price. Thank you all so much!!"

  • "Foote Development Company has been in the home-building business since 1978, constructing approximately 1,500 home, apartments and condominiums in 20 plus residential projects in southern California and Oregon. Recently, as a Board Member for the Riverpoint Condominiums HOA, I managed the contract to replace siding, where necessary, and repaint the exterior of the 23 contemporary condominiums on the Willamette River in the community of John’s Landing in Portland, OR. As an experienced contractor, I write this letter of recommendation for Verhaalen Painting, Inc. (Verhaalen). The Riverpoint Condominiums were started in 1983, constructed in 5 phases and completed in 1981. The contemporary design includes a vertical application of high-grade tongue and groove cedar siding. Riverpoint HOA’s contract with Verhaalen included: a thorough inspection of the siding, pressure washing the siding before the application of the sealants and replacement of siding, where necessary, prior to painting. It also includes an inspection two years following the completion of the painting to verify that the siding and sealants are intact and functioning properly. If any of the new siding installed by Verhaalen Painting shows a sign of failure, the contract calls for its replacement at that time. During the same inspection, all sealants will be inspected and replaced if necessary. Because the 23 condominiums at Riverpoint are occupied, Verhaalen’s staff needed to respect the access needs of the homeowners and be attentive to the protection of outdoor furnishings and plant material on the private decks. During the project, I received several compliments from my neighbors on our contractor selection. At the conclusion of the project, Verhaalen provided photographs of all the areas that received new siding or had a particular intricacy. As the project proceeded, some work was added to the scope of the work. Because the extra material for the work did not exceed the estimated contingency, Verhaalen’s change order was for labor only. During my 30 years in the residential contracting business, I have not worked with a better painting contractor than Verhaalen Painting, Inc."
