This is a hands-on operation where the owners are present, accessible, and personally invested in every project:
"This is the company you want to do a professional job. On time and the owner was at the home everyday to check up on the workers. Very clean. I did not have to clean up after them. I can confidently recommend this company." - J H., Google Review

Get StartedFREE SERVICECustomers consistently mention the same thing about J & S Painting Plus Inc: once you use them, you call them again. High marks on the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators show multiple reviewers returning for 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th projects over years and sometimes decades:

"I dislike that I am sharing our excellent experience because we have future work needed and I don't want Jay and his team to be booked solid. But if you need a professional, organized, affordable and experienced painting company hire Jay ASAP." - Amanda M., Google Review
Crews like Sheki, Omar, Jose, and Mauricio get called out by name across dozens of reviews, and that kind of name recognition doesn't happen with rotating subcontractors. The Chooz Score's in-house crews component shows consistency: the same crew names appear across multiple reviews spanning years:
"J&S Painting Plus are fantastic. Sheki and Mauricio are the best, super responsive, professional, and do excellent work. We will definitely be looking to them for all our future painting projects." - Nathan L., Google Review
One detailed review raised concerns about primer substitution and inconsistent prep work on baseboards, noting that quality issues were only addressed after the homeowner pointed them out. If prep work quality and paint brand consistency are important to you, ask directly: "Can you walk me through your prep process and confirm which primer and paint brands will be used on my project?"
"They don't do their own quality control. Sheki comes when they want a payment but doesn't inspect anything until the homeowner shows him things that look bad." - Erin B., Google Review

When a customer has been calling the same painting company for over 30 years, that loyalty says more than any advertisement ever could. A.G. Williams Painting Company has built the kind of multi-generational trust that keeps families returning for their second, fifth, and even sixth project. High marks on the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators confirm the pattern: reviewers consistently describe long-term relationships rather than one-time transactions:
"Been using AGW for 30 years. That says something." - Bob H., Google Review
The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, A.G. Williams Painting Company had over 280 Google reviews with a 4.9-star rating. This company earned a Chooz Score of 89.1%. With over a century in business and consistent ratings across platforms, they've established deep roots in the Westchester County area:
"As a longtime customer of more than a decade, I return to AG Williams time and again both because of their fantastic work product and customer service. I have used them on interior and exterior projects, both large and small, at multiple residences and they are always professional, thorough, detailed, and a true pleasure to work with." - K. Kneis, Google Review
Customers don't just praise the finished product, they call out the prep work, the edge detail, and the crew members by name. The Chooz Score's review authenticity indicators are strong: reviewers mention specific project details, crew members by name, and realistic timelines that reflect genuine experiences:
"Hugo and Jorge did a terrific job - their preparation work was amazingly detailed, their painting was perfection and their cleanliness was immaculate." - Stephen C., Google Review
Most reviews describe an outstanding experience, but one detailed review raised concerns about inconsistent quality from a project manager, including finishing issues and miscommunication about project scope and scheduling. The company holds a five-year workmanship warranty and has a track record of making things right, but it's worth confirming expectations upfront. Ask them directly: "Can you walk me through who will manage my project day-to-day, and how does your warranty process work if I'm not satisfied with the finished result?"
"The project manager would complete work that was spotty and subpar. When I would ask him about it he would make excuses." - Melissa S., Google Review (no owner reply)
What sets Interior Finishing NYC apart is the work most painting contractors won't even attempt. Owner Dorian Golemi, who studied at the University of Fine Arts in Tirana, Albania, specializes in decorative finishes like limewash, Roman clay, Venetian plaster, marmorino, and metallic applications - techniques that require an artistic eye and years of specialized training. The Chooz Score's review authenticity indicators are strong: reviewers mention specific finish types, crew members by name, and realistic project details that reflect genuine skilled work.
"Dorian was extraordinary. Beyond professional, and willing to deal with several unexpected circumstances - including finding leaks in my ceiling and working with my super and management agent in dealing with it all while I was out of town." - Ritu K., Google Review
Dorian Golemi doesn't just manage projects from a distance - he's physically on site working alongside his crew. His FAQ page states it plainly: "I am on all jobs working and supervising all aspects of the project most of the time." Reviews confirm this consistently, with Dorian mentioned by name in the vast majority of feedback:
"Hire them. No one is better. Dorian owns the company and does the work himself. We've never had a more careful, thoughtful contractor." - Jaclyn W., Google Review
The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, Interior Finishing NYC had over 120 Google reviews with a perfect 5.0-star rating. This company earned a Chooz Score of 87.3%. That perfect rating across over a hundred reviews is especially notable for a specialty contractor handling complex, high-expectation decorative finish work:
"I found this company through a google search and after reading the great reviews I decided to reach out to Dorian. He was incredibly fast in replying, efficient with coming over to give me a quote and worked diligently with his team in order to limewash my house. He got the job done in one day and I'm really happy with the finished product!" - Melissa C., Google Review
