Mike's Painting

When we ran our analysis, Mike's Painting had earned a Chooz Score of 87.4/100. Owner replies appear on nearly every review we analyzed, each addressing the customer by name and referring to the specific rooms, deck, or exterior involved. The company has operated out of Oak Ridge for over six years, is registered in Tennessee as TN Business Entity No. 001551336, and describes itself as locally owned and operated with more than 15 years of industry experience. It serves Oak Ridge, Knoxville, Clinton, Farragut, Lenoir City, and the surrounding East Tennessee communities.

The company held over 55 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating, along with 5.0 stars on Yelp and 100% recommended on Facebook, though the Yelp and Facebook profiles each hold only a few reviews. No profile was found on Angi or HomeAdvisor. Perfect ratings across these three platforms reflect strong customer feedback, with the caveat that nearly all of the volume sits on Google.

Repeat hires run through the reviews, with one customer describing both a commercial and a residential project, another describing several jobs from a full exterior to a single bedroom, and a third describing work done several times over. We found at least ten reviewers stating they had hired the company again or intended to. Showing up when promised and leaving the site clean at the end of each day are the two qualities repeat customers most often give as their reason for returning. Reviewers also frequently describe pricing that matched the estimate.

"I've worked with Mike's painting on both a commercial project and a residential project and there just aren't enough stars. Estimates are clear and fair. Work is utter perfection - all the defects repaired, smoothed, perfect paint lines. Each time he has exceeded expectations." - Cindy L., Google Review

Advice For Future Customers

Several reviewers describe the estimate arriving the same day they requested it, and the company's website says the written estimate includes a time breakdown and a list of things you can do before the crew arrives, so it pays to read it closely and complete that prep. Exterior and deck work is weather dependent, and one reviewer describes a two-day storm delay handled with a prompt call, so if your project is outdoors, ask how schedule changes will be communicated.
