This past summer Motti Painting solutions repainted our three story Victorian home.Quote:Daniel was punctual, came to the house, provided an estimate that he explained and walked us through. He was very clear about the process for change orders, which he honored and the specs on materials (paint, caulk, wood) brand and grade options. Payments were broken up into manageable chunks.Preparation:Daniel’s crew surveyed the entire house, identified clapboards that needed replacement, marked them clearly so we could see what needed to be replaced, offered us options on materials and efficiently replaced all damaged areas. In some instances the carpenter went above and beyond and replaced some damaged areas behind the clapboard that were not originally identified in the contract. We felt confident that once the painting commenced that the envelope was secure and that the carpentry work was solid. While the carpenter worked, the rest of Daniel’s team did an excellent job of scraping the whole house and caulking seams to ensure the paint would adhere and last.Painting and staining:Daniel’s team of four were respectful, efficient and responsive to feedback, as was Daniel. When we asked about adding additional drop cloths to catch any chipping or paint, they complied. They did an excellent job of the primary painting job but also sanded and stained our doors, front porch, rear deck and the ceiling of our front porch. We were shown samples of stain colors and had an opportunity to provide our own paint colors. We were very pleased with the quality of the finished product. We’ve received a lot of comments from our neighbors about both the thoroughness of the preparation and the end results.Warranty:There is a 3-year warranty! There was one small area of a cellar enclosure where we had some separation of the siding. Daniel sent his team to repair it the next week at no additional charge.Overall:Highly recommend Motti Painting Solutions and Daniel. This is our second paint job and so have had the experience of working with far less communicative and conscientious contractors. It's nice to work with someone who takes pride in their own work and the quality of their materials and has a crew that is highly skilled. In seeking out a whole house paint job we’ve gotten a lot of quotes and you can find someone who will do it cheaper or you can find someone who will do it for a lot more money than Daniel charged. For the quality and the care we feel very satisfied that we made the right investment, paid a fair price and have a paint job that will last at least 20-years.
In the 30 years I have owned my home in Jamaica Plain, no contractor has come anywhere close to Daniel and his team in terms of quality, professionalism, communication, responsiveness and overall value. The guys just finished up another great job for me, painting and carpentry, the latest in a long series, and I could not be more completely satisfied. The finished product is beautiful.It is always a pleasure to have the team at my home. They are friendly and professional and take pride in their work. With an old house, there is sometimes an unexpected complication in the course of a job. With Motti Painting Solutions, I always feel like we are collaborating to get the best result, and I never feel like I am being sold something.This is the only painting contractor I would ever consider using and I enthusiastically give them the highest recommendation.
We're delighted with the exterior paint job on our hundred year old house from Motti Solutions. Daniel's crew were courteous and professional at all times, and he kept in touch with us by email regularly throughout the project. He was extremely understanding when we were picking colors and couldn't make up our mind, doing many test patches of basic colors and associated trim. We've had many compliments on the house and we wholeheartedly recommend Motti Painting Solutions.
Motti Painting Solutions was great to work with. Daniel Motti was very responsive and a great communicator. The price of the initial job was very fair and the additional charges due to change orders (rotting boards and such that were found while prepping),were also reasonable and fair.We had a large job that included painting the exterior of our entire house and rebuilding the front and back porches. It's a very old house with a lot of detail so there was a lot of additional carpentry work (rotting cornices and siding). The carpenter Mauricio, was excellent. He worked quickly and efficiently and his skills are outstanding. The painting crew led by Hendry was also excellent and did a very thorough job of prepping the house prior to painting, and the finished product is beautiful. Both crews were very approachable and open to our suggestions and changes. They never saw things as problems, always had solutions for them, and were eager to make sure we were happy with the product. It was a pleasure working with them. I highly recommend Motti Painting Solutions.
We are a 300 year old community center in the heart of Harvard Sq. We worked with Motti Solutions in 2021 to replace our roof and in 2023 to repaint our first floor. They are professional, kind, responsive, and deliver excellent results. Our entire community is overjoyed with how much brighter and more beautiful our spaces are.
