"Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value. This summer I hired Paint It White Rock to refinish my backyard deck which had not aged well. This included power washing, sanding, and staining. I was very pleased with the quality of their work and the entire team’s professionalism. Questions were handled promptly and the job was completed within their estimated time. The owner, Mike, came multiple times to check on the progress. I was especially impressed by Treydon and his dedication to the job. I highly recommend this company. They do indeed follow their stated goal: Helping to make South Surrey Home Owners' homes look beautiful. Thank you, Mike and company"

"I have done a lot of painting over the years and was originally reluctant to hire someone to paint our home due to concerns with workmanship. However, Michael and his crew did an excellent job on our deck, we are very happy with the quality of their finished work. They were very professional with respect to documenting what needed to be done, arranging when they were available to do the work, bringing to our attention potential problems, and in a nutshell, with their conscientious attention to detail. They never rushed our job, working diligently yet efficiently too. We would be happy to recommend them."

"Michael did a great job on painting our house. Had some miscommunication about the stain colour during the work but Michael managed to fix the problem with a reasonable charge. Will definitely work with him again."

"Power Wash, Sand, Finish Three Exterior Decks, Paint Walls And Ceiling Double Car Garage. 2017 has been a challenge for exterior work. Michael and his staff provided quality service -- preparation, sanding, finishing. The cost included all supplies. Michael provided some 'testing' colours on the deck prior to my final selection. He provided good oversight to his staff. All were very polite and I did not mind leaving the house in their care when I had to be absent. He is well insured. After a job that was messy to say the least, the cleanup after was more than satisfactory. Drop sheets used as required; cleanup of 'stray' painting removed."

"Powerwash, Sand And Stain Deck. After meeting with Michael several times to discuss the job and price, he came out first to power wash and then to sand and stain our deck. He performed each task on time and aside from some weather issues, finished the job in a timely manner. The stain was done very well and evenly with no streaks."
