Chooz Score Insights
Familiar Faces, Consistent Results
Crews like Tony, Dave, and Carlos get called out by name across dozens of reviews, and that kind of 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 months and even years:
- Tony leads interior projects and is praised for precision and efficiency; Dave oversees exterior and larger jobs with a hands-on management style
- Customers mention crew members by name - Carlos, Chris, John, Hugo, Rebecca - with specific praise for their individual contributions
"All employees were professional from Benny and Kelly, to Dave, Carlos and Chris. They did not only paint rooms, they also patched and painted a huge hole around a kitchen exhaust fan that an electrician made when replacing an old fan and never came back to fix." - Mary T., Google Review

Additional Questions Answered
What does the prep-first approach look like on a standard interior project?
Homeowners describe a crew that arrives with floor coverings, plastic sheeting for doorways and laser measuring tools for precise wall assessment. Raffaella Marciari noted her crew taped paper on the floor and plastic on the doorways before touching a brush, while Patricia Johnston explained that the team leader goes over the entire scope before starting. Clients repeatedly say the space looks cleaner when the painters leave than when they arrived.
How involved is Kelly in the color selection process?
Kelly serves as the dedicated color consultant for the company. Laura Wise described how Kelly came to her home and helped select colors for every room, and Karen Zang called the team meticulous perfectionists after Kelly guided her through choices. For clients who change their minds mid-project, the office works through multiple rounds of sampling without frustration, as The Tobins experienced when they switched schemes more than a zillion times.
How does the company handle large-scope whole-house projects under tight timelines?
The team adjusts crew size and scheduling to meet deadlines. Toniann T hired Elite to paint a new home before move-in on a very short timeline, and Benny accommodated a last-minute change without issue. For Steve's entire house, the team brought in an additional crew and worked a Saturday to finish on schedule. Zahra Rizvi's full gut renovation with second-story extension also ran smoothly with Tony's crew managing every surface.
What happens if a homeowner spots an issue after the job wraps up?
The crew builds a final walkthrough into their process. Daniel Urick noted the painters returned a short while later to make a few touch-ups, and Ben Gorham's experience included Benny stopping by after the crew left to double-check quality. Christine Gangone praised Dave's crew for their patience with staircase work and their willingness to fix any concern, no matter how small.
What kind of commercial spaces has Elite Painting worked on?
The company handles both corporate retail and community-serving buildings. The website highlights work for Christian Dior's Manhasset store and a skin-care salon called Aesthetically Yours. Robert Walsh has hired them on numerous projects at the Franklin Square Library, and Pastor Humberto Chavez praised their work at The Bridge Church in Malverne. CCC, a general contractor, calls them their go-to painting subcontractor for client homes.
How do customers describe the team's professionalism compared to other painters they have hired?
Multiple reviewers make direct comparisons to past experiences. Andrea Dimieri called Elite by far the best of many past painting experiences, and Brian Brown wrote a detailed review explaining this is not your typical hit 5 stars and write nice words before laying out specific reasons for the rating. Lori Abramowitz interviewed multiple painters but knew after meeting Benny that she wanted to work with him. Eileen Ward noted she has worked with multiple painting companies and Elite does the best work.
What is Elite Painting's licensing and business entity status in New York?
The company holds an active Nassau County Home Improvement license under the category of Home Improvement with a Painting designation. The license remains valid through late 2027. Elite Painting Services Plus Inc. is registered as an active Domestic Business Corporation with the New York Department of State, filed in Nassau County.
