The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, Triangle Pro Painting had over 350 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating - a perfect score that's remarkably rare in the painting industry. This company earned a Chooz Score of 94.5%. Their reputation extends across multiple platforms with equally impressive results:
"I'm a retired designer who worked for 39 years in the field. I've used many painting contractors, all over the country. This was by far the best experience I have ever had working with a painting contractor." - Thomas S., Google Review
Customers consistently mention the same crew members by name - EJ, Jake, David Simpson, Taylor Keith, Efren, Alejandro, Victor, Nelson, and others appear repeatedly across reviews spanning months and years. The Chooz Score's in-house crews component shows this isn't coincidence: it's a deliberate commitment to dedicated teams. What this means for you:
"Jake, Kate and the entire team were great to work with. The finished product is amazing and made the house look brand new. Jake was easy to reach during the entire job, communicating well regarding the planning, prepping and completion." - James C., Google Review
If you're looking for a painter you can call for years to come, this company has built serious loyalty. High marks on the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators: reviewers consistently mention returning for second homes, future projects, and recommending to family:
"This is the second house they have painted for us and we couldn't be more pleased. Highly, highly recommend if you want the work done well and if you expect great communication and customer service." - Donna P., Google Review

"This is the third time we have used Roca's. This time was my daughter's house. Always a pleasure. From the initial estimate to the completion of the project I could not be happier." - Monica L., Google Review
Customers consistently mention the same thing: Roca's crews leave spaces cleaner than they found them. The meticulous prep work comes up repeatedly in reviews:
"They did all the prep work of taking off the light switch & electrical covers instead of painting around them. They took down the blinds so that they could paint the inside of the windows. They even pulled out the Refrigerator and painted the walls behind it so that the space is cohesive!" - Carol S., Google Review
Multiple reviewers mention returning to Matrix Painting for second, third, and even fourth projects. High marks on the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators: the phrase "will use them again" appears throughout the reviews, and several customers describe Matrix as their permanent painting company:

Communication & Responsiveness
If you're a first-time customer who wants guidance, Raleigh Paint & Improvement delivers at an exceptional level. Owner Brennan O'Dowd and field manager Ryan Chapman respond to nearly every review with personalized replies that reference specific projects, crew members, and customer details—not generic copy-paste thank yous (Source: Chooz Score – Review Response Rate 3.0/3.0 and Review Response Quality 3.5/3.5). This carries through to the actual work:
"Ryan was very prompt and communicative before, during and after my project. He answered all my questions and communicated directly with the designer who helped me pick color." - Evangeline O., Google Review
Quality & Attention to Detail
If you're particular about craftsmanship and the details matter to you, this team takes pride in their work. Reviews consistently highlight thorough prep work, meticulous painting, and crew members who go above and beyond to fix even the smallest imperfections (Source: Chooz Score – Key Phrase Extraction 2.5/3.0 and Review Complexity & Specificity 2.8/3.0). What sets them apart:
"They spent a long time sanding and prepping the walls and it shows. No drips, or smudges or accidental paint splotches, really just a great job." - Ethan S., Google Review
Speed Without Cutting Corners
If you're a busy professional or family on a tight schedule, their track record stands out. Projects consistently finish on time or ahead of schedule, and their recent review activity backs this up—steady new reviews every month for over two years (Source: Chooz Score – Recent Activity Weighting 4.0/4.0 and Review Distribution 3.0/3.0). Their responsiveness shows in real results:
"We needed the house ready before our move-in day, and Ryan worked hard to get us scheduled earlier than expected, so we were set in time." - Mallory M., Google Review
Proven Track Record

With nearly 150 Google reviews and a 4.9-star rating (Source: Google Reviews), plus additional reviews on Angi at 4.9 stars (Source: Angi) and Yelp at 5.0 stars (Source: Yelp), they've demonstrated consistent quality over approximately 5 years in business (Source: Chooz Score – Years in Business component):
"As a Realtor, I've worked with several companies in the past and Raleigh Paint and Improvement were communicative, timely and competitively priced." - Blair N., Google Review
How larger projects are managed
The company has excellent reviews overall, but a couple of detailed reviews mention that larger, more complex projects experienced some quality control challenges—particularly around crew coordination and final clean-up (Source: Chooz Score – Cross-Platform Negative Review Assessment 4.0/4.0, noting two negative Google reviews). The owner responded professionally and acknowledged making process improvements. Ask them directly: "For bigger projects, how do you ensure consistent quality across different crew members?"
"The additional crew's attention to detail was certainly lacking. I can and do appreciate that the owner literally asked us how we wanted to proceed and he agreed to what we asked at the end." - Raj, Google Review (owner replied with detailed explanation of corrective actions)
The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, this company had over 1,600 Google reviews with a 4.9-star rating. Gonzalez Painters & Contractors Inc. earned a Chooz Score of 89.6% and is one of the most reviewed painting contractors in the Triangle area. With 22 years in business, they've built their reputation through consistent delivery:
"This marks about the 20th year that we've used Gonzalez Painters & Contractors, including a big job to install dry wall for a renovation in 2008. Such a good company to work with." - Chris R., Google Review
If you're a first-time customer who wants guidance, this company delivers on communication. The owner responds to virtually every review with personalized messages, mentioning specific projects and customer names, not copy-paste thank-yous:
"The communication with them made all the difference… the bid meeting, the project kick off walk through and then the final inspection let us work together to make sure everything looked good." - Eric D., Google Review
Crews like Mario, Smith, Carlos, Jeremy, and Luis get called out by name, and that says something about the quality of work. Customers consistently mention attention to finishing touches that exceed expectations:
"They take pride in their work, even went back to one area and touched it up where previous paint had peeled without me asking. Two thumbs up from me!!" - William A., Google Review
The company states they are "licensed and insured" on their website and multiple platforms. One contractor directory was unable to verify an active NC general contractor license during our analysis. North Carolina requires a general contractor license for projects valued at $40,000 or more. Most residential painting projects fall below this threshold, but if your project is substantial, ask them directly: "Can you provide your current NC contractor license number and certificate of insurance?"
This is likely a database or record-keeping issue rather than an actual licensing problem given their 22+ years of operation and BBB accreditation, but verifying credentials before signing any contract is always good practice.
