Chooz Score Insights
Hands-On Leadership
Owner Denis personally handles every estimate, stays in direct communication throughout each project, and is mentioned by name in the vast majority of reviews. The Chooz Score's owner engagement indicators are strong: Denis is personally referenced in review after review, and customers describe him as easy to work with, responsive, and present on the job site:
- Denis answers calls directly and often responds to quote requests the same day, including weekends
- Customers describe Denis walking through the scope of work before starting and checking in throughout the project
"Denis came out himself for the estimate, did the work with his crew the next week, and called a month later to make sure everything was still working perfectly. That's old-school service." - K. F., Google Review

Additional Questions Answered
What does the start of a Big Expert Painting project look like from the customer side?
Customers describe a process that begins with a walkthrough and a clear written estimate. Kerry Romeo noted that Denis ensured his team minimized the mess on her 175-year-old home, while Susan Niver said the crew communicated throughout the project and delivered spackling and painting that left her cathedral ceilings looking perfect. The pattern across reviews is a hands-on owner who sets expectations before work begins.
How do customers describe the crew's behavior while working inside their homes?
Reviewers highlight cleanliness and respect for personal space. Chantel B said the team covered my personal items before starting and finished a day early. Karen Chilicki wrote that painters always cleaned up after themselves and moved furniture back. Michael Sweeney watched the crew work and called them excellent painters and repairman who made an old house look new and cleaned everything when finished.
What kinds of cabinet and kitchen projects has this team handled?
Ronnie Morales hired them for kitchen cabinets and a new backsplash and said the cabinets look like they came direct from the showroom. Anthony Dilillo had ceilings and walls skim-coated and then booked cabinet painting after seeing the results. Patricia Cassidy-Lopez described her cabinet resurfacing crew as organized with excellent workmanship. These reviews point to a team comfortable with both paint-grade and refinishing kitchen work.
How has Big Expert Painting handled drywall and sheetrock repairs?
Drywall work is a GBP-listed category and shows up frequently in reviews. James Miskiewicz hired them after a major water leak and said the room was looking good as new in less than two days. K.F. had ceiling sheetrock replaced from a removed skylight and said Denis has high standards and will make sure everything comes out the best. The choraldirector09 Pagano review praised demo-to-sheetrock-to-paint finish work on a basement.
Do customers come back for additional projects?
Multiple reviewers describe returning. Sara Galante started with three rooms and was so impressed she brought the crew back for two more rooms and patch-ups. Ken Smitelli gave five stars and said he already scheduled another two jobs and referred two people. Joseph Meyer has used the company for three bedrooms plus crown molding and doors. David Roberts calls Denis someone it is a pleasure to work with and Michael Curley has known him over seven years across multiple projects.
How do customers rate the pricing and value?
Pricing comes up as a strength. Angel Velez mentioned reasonable price alongside punctuality and excellent work. R Lin compared quotes and found the Selden wallpaper-removal job very reasonably priced to other quotes. Chris B. called the interior and exterior stair work a very reasonable price while rating the result as thorough and clean. The pattern is competitive pricing paired with detailed prep that avoids costly rework.
