Questions to Ask Ulta Home

Technical advice on specialty finishes

Nearly all reviews are strongly positive, but there is one 3-star review where a customer disagreed with technical guidance Ulta provided about staining options. This appears to be a difference of opinion rather than a service complaint, but if you have a specialty finish project—like re-staining previously painted surfaces—it may be worth discussing their approach to ensure alignment. Ask them directly: "What's your approach to [your specific finish type], and can you walk me through why you recommend it?"

"I disagree with your statement. Solid stain could be painted over many services, including an already painted wood surface." - Chris T., Google Review (no owner reply)

Questions to Ask Catchlight Painting

Project management and communication expectations

While the majority of reviews are positive, a couple of customers noted frustration with project management communication during their jobs. One customer felt they had to personally manage the painters daily, while another experienced delays and invoicing confusion on an exterior project. Ask them directly: "Who will be my main point of contact during the project, and how often can I expect updates?"

"If it weren't for me directing the painters each day, we would've had a number of areas that were either not painted at all, not properly prepped, or painted the wrong color." - Jennifer U., Google Review
