A Touch of Color did a fantastic job painting our exterior vinyl siding, front door, and interior doors. We had several other companies tell us that vinyl couldn't be painted, or that it wouldn't turn out well. Not true! Our house looks as good as new. Credit goes to the Touch of Color team which did an extremely thorough job. The team was prompt, friendly, and worked incredibly hard despite the heat and summer storms. They double checked and touched up where needed unprompted from us. Courtney was super helpful and responsive to our questions. We appreciated the fact that he came by to check on the final product on the last day. In 8 years of owning our home, hands down the best contractor we've worked with.

Courtney and his team were very professional and always let us know what to expect. They did an excellent job and we were actually the 4th house on the same block they have given a complete exterior paint job! I would recommend them to all of our neighbors, friends, and co-workers. They made sure every detail was covered and exactly what we agreed upon. It was imperative we had licensed contractors who were experienced and professional. Give these guys a call!

We used A Touch of Color to repair a hole in the ceiling from a water leak, big drywall repairs due to electrical work, scrape popcorn ceiling, and repaint everything in our living room, dining room and kitchen. They were very quick to come out for an estimate and then very helpful via email for all my questions as I picked paint colors and got the project scheduled. When they came out, they were always timely and professional and the finished product was amazing! I was very happy with our experience with them.

Painting the entire interior of a house is a real experience! Moving furniture, things that have been hanging on walls for years, finding a spot to put things where you won't forget where you put them. in general, upheaval of your normal routine, just to get to the ceilings, walls and trim to be painted! Courtney's guys did a great job of working from one end of the house to the other, causing an absolute minimum of disruption.

They moved furniture, etc. with care, wrapped it completely and well. Then came the paint, the main attraction! They did a great job on the ceilings, walls and all the trim (and we have multilevel crown in almost every room) patching, painting and cutting in, applying the coats of paint smoothly with nice, straight lines. Everything looks so fresh, plus by going a bit lighter on earth tones, the house is much brighter than it was.

We've used other painters on some rooms and can attest to the quality of the guys from A Touch of Color. On time, professional, quality workers who plan and execute with a minimum disruption to the homeowner. We highly recommend them. Susan Morford Clayton, NC

Courtney and his team are fantastic! We are repeat customers because of their professional service, attention to detail, and quick turnaround. We just bought a new house, and they graciously helped us remove the popcorn and painted a few areas. They also painted the exterior of our last house and removed the popcorn on our vaulted ceiling in our living room and foyer. They are great to work with and if any issues come up, Courtney has always made it right! I would recommend them to anyone and plan on having them back again.

We had the outside of our home painted by A Touch of Color. Courtney our project manager and Desi the team leader were both great! We are so satisfied with the professionalism and workmanship. Where there were extra materials they were left as requested for future small siding and trim repairs. Great care was taken removing the shutters as they were painted.

After rehanging them the shutters looked better than when the home was originally built. The gray siding color and white trim really makes our home pop! The workers were friendly and very efficient. They also helped use move and place things back as they originally were. Very impressed with the cleanup communication and completed work.

We were very pleased with the exterior painting, deck rebuild and screen porch repair done by Courtney's team. They arrived on time, got the job done, cleaned up afterward and were easy to work with. We will use them again in the future. Service: Exterior painting

A Touch of Color Painting and General Contracting, LLC and Courtney Ray are as professional a Painting and General Contractor there is. We have used ATOC for over a decade and our experiences are always the same, wonderful! Courtney is incredibly knowledgable about not only paint and stain, but construction and best practices for installation. He is thorough with his estimates and leaves little chance of something unexpected popping up.

Our own clients and people we refer directly to him always rave about his work. His crews are polite, clean, respectful to property, and efficient. We look forward to working with Courtney and A Touch of Color again and again!

The work that was COMPLETED was satisfactory. Due to a delay in the delivery of materials (unavoidable) the job was left incomplete. I withheld a small amount to insure the job would be finished. I notified Courtney as soon as the job was ready for him to come back and finish what he was contracted to do. He refused claiming the job was complete. I am attaching pictures for reference. Courtney was rude, condescending, misogynistic, and not truthful.

Courtney and his team are always respectful, thoughtful, and on-time. I've used AToC a few times and am always happy with the experience. The exterior painting, popcorn removal, and ceiling refinishing we've had from them has been well worth their reasonable pricing. I've never had a reason to look elsewhere for my painting needs.

We could not be happier with the repairs and exterior painting job that A Touch of Color completed on our house. From our initial contact to the final walkthrough, every step has been done with an attention to detail that far exceeded all of our expectations. I highly recommend Courtney and his team due to the communication, quality, and professionalism shown throughout the entire process.

Wow! This company does really fantastic work! Courtney is a local native thats fair and very knowledgeable. Not many painters are general contractors. But with this company there is a distinguishable difference. Highly recommend A Touch of Color! Services: Interior painting, Exterior painting

After reading rave reviews on this business, I was thrilled to make an apt. for a quote. Courtney (I believe the Owner) came out and went through the entire home to discuss work to be done. He was very thorough, yet very condescending. It made me feel like he just didn't want to work on my home. Said he would send an estimate within a day or two. I emailed two weeks later as a reminder, and he said he'd "send it again". Nothing. Everyone's time is valuable, and yet he didn't even have the courtesy to say he didn't want to do the job. I did find a recent review "hidden" in Yelp that seemed to be a similar situation.

Superior work and excellent customer service for the 12+ years I've used Courtney Ray's painting services. From the exterior of my 3,000sf home to internal faux and specialized interior paintings, work has been superior. Courtney is also skilled in carpentry in which you do not find in most sole proprietor painters. His team of painters arrived everyday at 9AM for 14days, focused on the job, cleaned up on after their work day (no smoking, no profanity) and overall the team enjoyed what they were doing on the job site without Courtney (owner) over their shoulders. This has been rare to find contractors whose subs work efficiently even when the boss is away from the site, so I give A Touch of Color Painting 5 stars!

I was highly impressed with Courtney and his team at A Touch of Color Painting. We needed interior house painting as soon as possible to prepare to put our home on the market. Courtney moved quickly to meet out deadline and had his team in and painting in a few short days.

I love this company! I hired them to paint my house after I resided it. The owner, Courtney, took time with me to discuss EVERYTHING I needed to know about paint and colors. He even taught me things about paint that I bet many painters don't even know.

I was disappointed in this company. The contract was vague which allowed them to perform and incomplete job. There were a few repairs to patch/replace.the first area of damage to the siding we were told no problem.
