When Lisa Torres needed corrections to a drywall project left unfinished by a prior contractor and complicated by water damage, three other estimates had failed to address the full scope. Sales director Dan Galliers reassured her the work could be done. Crew member Mike set her at ease as the painting team brought the project back on track, while owner Jeff Perry oversaw the job and suggested staining a worn sliding door to lift the finished look. That layered involvement runs through the company's project history.
Perry Painting and Restoration operates from 4144 N Haven Avenue in Toledo. The team handles residential interior and exterior painting, cabinet refinishing, drywall and water damage repair, and commercial work spanning church rectories like St. Catherine of Siena, country clubs like Inverness, self-storage facilities, indoor playgrounds, and industrial coatings at fabrication shops like TW Metals. Crew leaders Cody, Walt, Mike, Justin, and Dan recur by name across reviews.
The company is BBB Accredited and serves Toledo plus surrounding northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan communities, including Sylvania, Maumee, Perrysburg, Oregon, Holland, Northwood, Rossford, and Lambertville.

Reviews describe Jeff as a hands-on owner who inspects work daily and adjusts mid-project. Doug Brown wrote that "Jeff Perry was present and inspected the ongoing work everyday" and Chris Parlette noted that when his crew arrived, "Jeff (the owner) reviewed what would be happening over the next few weeks" and recommended painting the front brick a darker gray. Tony Garver added "Jeff, the owner, was engaged in every aspect of the work."

Drywall integration is a recurring strength. Tony Garver wrote that after Perry repaired drywall in his kitchen, "You'd never know there was any damage to begin with, the walls are smooth, perfectly finished, and ready for paint." Michael Jaeck described patches "to many cracks, holes, and damaged caused by a leaky skylight," writing afterward "the room looks brand new and your would never know there had been any issues."

Reviewers repeatedly note transparent pricing and quotes that hold. Tyler Lentz wrote that Perry "charged $100 less than the estimate" on his drywall and skylight job. Nancy McDonald said Jeff "did exactly what he quoted, none of that unexpected extra cost you can get hit with." James Edinger reported that even with added wood replacement, Perry "came in below other painting only quotes."

Reviews show recovery jobs are recurring. Lisa Torres' three previous estimates failed to address her drywall and water damage before Perry's team corrected the work. Dawn Seals' original painter no-showed, and Jeff "immediately managed to squeeze my paint work into his busy schedule." John Veselenak called Perry for repair on a three-year-old screen porch the builder had bundled poorly, finding Perry was "able to make it in to what it should have been from the start."

Repeat business and long-tenure relationships show up consistently across platforms. Brett Hymore noted "I've known the owner for over 40 years" before hiring Perry for his chimneys. Doy DiNardo recalled meeting Jeff in 1998 for paint restoration and wrote "He has never let us down. We honestly can't imagine using anyone else." BBB reviewer Robin K added "We highly recommend them and will definitely be calling them again for future projects."
