The last time we conducted our Chooz Score analysis, over 95 Google reviews mentioned the same qualities again and again - meticulous prep work, attention to detail, and flawless results on challenging surfaces. For homeowners with older Rochester homes full of plaster walls, water damage, and decades-old paint, this is the company that takes the time to get it right:
"I can't say enough positive things about our experience with Monarch Painting. Angelica worked tirelessly to prepare the walls for painting; sanding and smoothing the walls, edges, and corners where needed. The painting was meticulously done, making sure there were no flaws, drips, or rough spots." - Marco I., Google Review
5 years in business and a perfect 5.0-star rating across over 95 Google reviews don't happen by accident. Monarch Painting earned a Chooz Score of 87.3%. The Chooz Score's cross-platform analysis shows consistent ratings across multiple review sites, with every single review in the two-year analysis period coming in at five stars:
"Eric and his crew are outstanding! Brent, Brian, Ben, Jimmy and the rest of the team are tremendous to work with. Professional, friendly, and meticulous to the smallest detail." - Roger S., Google Review
Crews like Jimmy, Brent, Brian, Charlie, and Angelica get called out by name across dozens of reviews - and that kind of consistency doesn't happen with rotating subcontractors. The Chooz Score's in-house crews component shows the same crew names appearing across multiple reviews spanning different seasons and years:
"I have had all our painting done by Eric and Monarch painting since we moved in to our home 20 years ago. They are so good they are under demand so call early to schedule your project." - Joan T., Google Review
