Best Painters Near Guild, TN Ranked by Chooz Score

At the time we analyzed Ridgeline Pro Painters, the company held over 75 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating, along with 100% recommended on Facebook across 4 reviews and 5.0 stars on Yelp from 1 review. The volume sits almost entirely on Google, so the Facebook and Yelp figures confirm the picture rather than add to it. The company earned a Chooz Score of 86.2%. Reviews arrive at a steady pace, with at least 15 of those we analyzed posted in the three months before our analysis and every month of the two years before that carrying at least one. It has operated in Chattanooga for over two years, has been Accredited with the Better Business Bureau since 2025, holds Tennessee License No. 11945, and is registered as TN Business Entity No. 001540533. Owner Liam Troy runs the business locally, serving Chattanooga, Hixson, Ooltewah, Signal Mountain, and the surrounding communities. Owner Liam Troy is named in most of the reviews we analyzed, doing the first walkthrough himself, taking notes on each request, and returning for a final check before the crew leaves. Crew leads Oscar and Cesar are named on separate jobs by different customers. We found at least ten reviewers describing progress updates during the work, several with photos. An owner who scopes the job in person and then documents progress while the crew paints is the pattern reviewers describe most consistently. Owner replies appear on every review in our sample, each addressed by name. "Prior to starting the job, Liam, the crew, my husband, and I walked around our house to review the scope of work he and I discussed in the consult to make sure we were all on the same page... After the job was complete, Liam, his foreman, my husband, and I walked around our house to check everything out to make sure it looked acceptable to us prior to the crew wrapping up." - Michele P., Google Review

Reviewers who describe the smoothest projects mention two walkthroughs, one before the crew starts to confirm the scope and one at the end before the crew packs up, so plan to be present for both. The single three-star review in our sample turned on a small item the customer believed was missed, which makes the final walkthrough the place to check every line of your request together. Several reviewers also credit Liam with steering them toward the right paint or finish, so it is worth asking for his product recommendation.

When we ran our analysis, Randy Wilson Painting had earned a Chooz Score of 86.1%. Reviewers mention seeing the company’s yard signs across Chattanooga, and it carries a local following on neighborhood networks like Nextdoor. It runs as a fourth-generation family business serving Chattanooga and the North Georgia area, registered in Tennessee as Business Entity No. 000995824 and holding TN Contractor License No. C2613285. It is licensed, bonded, and insured, and backs its work with a 1-Year Labor Warranty. Across its review profiles, the company held over 200 Google reviews with a 4.9-star rating, along with 5.0 stars on Yelp. Holding a 4.9 average across a sample this large is uncommon, since even a small run of low ratings pulls the average down at that volume. Professionalism, punctual arrivals, careful room protection, and clean-up are the qualities reviewers name again and again. Many single out the people behind the work, with estimator Scott and office scheduler Jessica recurring by name across the reviews we analyzed. The most striking pattern is tenure, with customers describing repeat projects over ten, twenty, and in one case thirty-plus years. Fair, reasonable pricing comes up often as well. The rare critical account we analyzed concerns work that did not match what was agreed, which we cover below. "We have used Randy Wilson Painting to paint our house several times over the past 34 years. That’s why when I have a painting need I call them first and they are always quick to respond." - Tom K., Google Review

Reviewers who spell out the colors, sheens, and scope they want up front tend to describe getting exactly what they pictured, so it helps to confirm those details in writing before the crew starts. One reviewer, by contrast, described a job where the painters used paint she had not chosen and left quality problems that repeat visits did not fully fix. Ask them directly: "If the finished work doesn’t match the colors and scope we agreed on, how will you make it right?" "I told them what paint color/sheen was used and even gave them a gallon we had left. They didn’t listen and decided to go with whatever they had on hand." - Hannah I., Google Review
