Exceptional communication and prep work leads to outstanding results. The JRP team gave our 1930s colonial new life! We have used them for both interior painting and exterior painting of our newly purchased historical home that was in desperate need of some love. I would 10000% hire again and recommend to anyone!

What a fabulous job John and his crew did on our house!!! We have some ridiculously tough spots to paint and the team did a superlative job in record time. Professional, friendly and great quality work. Worth every penny. Highly highly recommend Joe Rivers and Crew for any and all painting work- with much gratitude to John and his team!
Peter Wozniak

Superb work by John and his crew! Extremely competent - and fearless in the face of a very steep pitch and nasty slope on the ground - polite, informative, and totally professional. I would use them again in a heartbeat and recommend Joseph Rivers Painting to anyone who needs work done. Thank you, John!
