John Parlett & his crew are amazing! Not only did they do a fantastic job painting our home in Mathews, VA but they also flawlessly reconstructed sections of the original structure. Their main objective is ensuring that you are happy with their work. It can so difficult to find reliable, honest professionals who show up on time, keep you updated along the way and are genuinely friendly. What a breath of fresh air!!

Parletts Painting did a great job on our upstairs. They were very professional, quick and did a great job. They even fixed a couple of additional areas for us and didn’t charge us. They made the job look easy! Will definitely use them again!

John and his team of painters are like nothing my husband and I have ever experienced! John arrived to go over and double check all my painting decisions before his crew got started. His crew of painters immediately got to work. They all had a job, moving furniture, covering the floors and furniture, removing outlet covers etc. They repaired every crack in sheet rock, all nail holes. They were all very professional and a smile on every face. They cleaned up spotlessly, not one drop of paint on anything. I didn't even have to scrape paint off of windows! Call John for all your painting needs, they are the BEST

The time had come to paint the interior of 3 rooms, and our hallway. My wife was adamant that we hire professional painters. After scoping out the amount of work, and time I would have to do to complete the task, I broke down, and agreed with her. We found Parlett Painting's website and found they were a local family business, so I gave them a call. I spoke with John, who said he'd be to our house the same day. John was polite, and very knowledgeable. He gave us a great estimate and stated we could begin work the next day, we couldn't resist, and requested they do our project. John's team arrived the following day, on time, and with enough painters to get the job done. All his team was professional, respectful of our property, and finished the job with excellent quality and precision. They repaired cracks and drywall flaws, and replaced a burnt out ceiling light...who does that?!..Parlett Painting does, that's who. If you want good quality painting, call Parlett. They were the answer to my wife's prayers, perhaps they will be yours as well.

We contacted Parlett Painting to remove the textured ceiling that was put up MANY years ago. The only negative I can say, is that we DID NOT call sooner.
We called John early Thursday morning and he was there within 30 minutes and gave us a quote. We scheduled the team to start the following Monday and they finished Tuesday afternoon.
John and his team were on time and very professional.
The celing looks amazing. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.
I can't wait to get the exterior done.
Great job Parlett Painting. Thank you so very much!

John Parlett was a god send. I just had the.entire house painted inside, outside, basement, garage and breezeway. He and his marvelous team were punctual, hardworking and very creative. They were amazing.

I have had the pleasure of doing business with Mr. Parlett and his team twice and he is above and beyond with his service and quality of work. He takes pride in a job well done and could write a book on professionalism.

I would highly recommend!! Even my husband who is very discerning was pleased.

Parlett’s Painting did an amazing job! We had quite a bit of drywall work and the entire interior repainted. Meticulous! They also painted all the new trim on the exterior of our home. John and his crew are top-notch professionals and we highly recommend them!!!!

I saw someone else's review asking if they can give Parlett Painting more than 5 stars. Yes, how do I do that!?! I would give them 10! John and his team were absolutely superb. My husband and I have worked with a lot of contractors over the years, and John and his team were communicative, professional, hard working and best of all, excellent at their craft. Probably the best contractor I've ever worked with. His team painted the entire interior of our home, top to bottom, bathroom to bedroom and all of our kitchen cabinets. Not only have they made our home look brand new, but it was an absolutely pleasure seeing them work. They were very respectful to our home and treated it like their own.

From the moment I met John, he was honest, upfront and just an absolute pleasure to work with. I wholeheartedly recommend John and his team for any painting job you have. Next up, exterior of the house and our fence. I would not give the job to anyone but Parlett Painting.

John was incredibly responsive and patient with me as a first time home color chooser. He was thorough and checked in every day, making sure the crew was addressing additional needs. They arrived when they said they would and took the estimated amount of time, which was very efficient and fast. When there were some left over concerns, he was responsive and they were addressed the next day. The house looks like a completely different home, amazing. I should have asked for the decks to be sanded first but that is my fault. I would recommend deck sanding before painting (especially if you have dogs or heavy traffic). I would recommend John to others for house painting.

A very professional painting contractor with highly courteous and skilled employees. Their quality of work and following up with thoroughly cleaning the area exceeded my expectations. I recommend them for all your painting needs. You won't be disappointed.

Look no further for a company to help you with your painting projects! John Parlett and his crew can do it all and provide 5 star work. We used Parlett Painting for drywall repairs, interior painting, exterior door/shutter painting and cabinet painting. John’s costumer service, professionalism and pride in their work make Parlett Painting a company you have to use. John answered my initial call, was available within a week for a consultation, prepared a quote the same day and scheduled our project at time that was convenient to us. John’s crew was on time, respectful and professional. We made the mistake of buying our own paint and John’s crew never gave up! They worked until it was right. John was involved in the entire process and wouldn’t pull his crew until it met his standards (despite needing an additional day of work at no charge to us). John always answered the phone, texts and emails and stayed in constant contact throughout the process. I highly recommend Parlett Painting to anyone who needs these services. We have found our family’s painter for any further projects. Thank you John and the Parlett crew! We are so happy with everything you did for us!

I cannot say enough about how happy we are with the work done by Parlett’s Painting. From the moment we got our quote to the moment they pulled out of the driveway was nothing but easy, and our house looks brand new in only a matter of a couple days.
The guys were super nice and friendly, and they answered all of my questions and took care of everything I asked for. The crew seemed to be happy to be at the job each day and it showed in their quality of work.
I would highly recommend them to my friends and family, and I will definitely use them again.
Great people, great price, great work… great everything!

Parlett's Painting did a wonderful job refreshing the interior and exterior my Grandmother's home!

All of the walls were repaired and painted, along with all interior doors. They even touched up the kitchen cabinetry and exhaust hood over the stove!

The most amazing improvements were made to the garage, thanks to owner John Parlett's vision! The gray he selected for the front/side doors and shutters really help tie it all together! The power washing of the home's exterior greatly improved the overall look, too!

It was a big job, but it was completed quickly and effectively. Big shout out and THANKS to the Parlett's Painting Team!

We have used Parlett Painting on two different painting/drywall projects in the past and were very pleased. We are extremely happy with the recent interior painting project on our daughters room. We received great communication from estimation to completion of job. John Parlett is very professional, friendly and responsive. The crew that came to our home worked quickly and professionally and did a great job! We will continue using them for future painting needs!

Parlett Painting strives for perfection. Prior to painting, they lay down protective paper on the floors. If the drywall needs repair, they make it as perfect as possible. The attention to detail displayed during painting is second to none. QA is carried out by all members of the team. Clean-up was exceptional as well. Highly recommend!

The team of Parlett’s was great to work with. I hear people say the contractor/painter never called them back or show up. That was not the case with Parlett’s. They even came back to do a touch up that I caused. I will use them again for other projects.

There are not enough stars. Parletts team of painters were amazing. They arrived on time and did an outstanding job painting our kitchen and living room area including ceilings. Worked a miracle on some 30 year old kitchen cabinets. They were polite and very professional. Will definitely call on them for future painting jobs.

John and his crew arrived on time, and ready to work. The team introduced themselves and got right to work. The transformation of my house was spectacular. All holes were filled, all trim was meticulously painted, and the cleanup was thorough. The next day a painter returned and did touch up work, even in spots I hadn’t noticed.

I highly recommend Parlett Painting for any painting you might be considering.

Once I decided to paint the brick on my home, I contacted John and he came by the next day to look at the house and give me a quote. He had some great ideas and seemed to really care about improving the look of my home. There were a few delays getting started mostly due to the weather but once they started, the job went quick, they cleaned up everything and left me with very satisfied with what looks like a totally different house. I’ve had people I don’t know stop by to tell me how incredible it looks. I would definitely recommend this company and give them 5 stars for service and job satisfaction!

From the first email for a quote to completion of job, professional all the way from start to finish. I was immediately impressed when John made appointment to come look at the house at 2:30 and text when he was 10 minutes out. Short conversation about what we wanted done and what he could do the job for. I knew he had a grasp on the job at hand. Showed up earlier than expected and ready to work. His crew was impressive and came to work. Parletts got done in a day and a half what would have taken me a week and a couple weekends! The energy John brings when he is on the job is unmatched. And when we had a small issue, he had his guys come back and fix it, next day, at no additional cost. Honored his commitment and exceeded all expectations. Few and far between are there companies that do the quality job with the integrity that Parletts brings. Highly recommend and will call him for any other paint jobs we have in the future. Top notch!

It's very refreshing to have a company show up, not on time, but early. The whole crew was professional, talented, and efficient. The end product was OUTSTANDING. John went over everything with a critical eye and made some few corrections and voila...we are very very pleased.

John and his crews were outstanding. We needed external painting that was long overdue. John is high energy, detail oriented, and did great work for us in Kilmarnock. Most importantly, he showed up and started the work when he said he would and completed the work as he promised. We will have John back this winter for indoor work. If you want reliable high quality work from a painter who has attention to detail, John Parlett is your painter.

We Answer Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing questions
1. What is the average roof replacement cost for a residential home?

3. What factors affect the overall roof repair cost?
+-

Several factors influence roof repair cost, including the extent of the damage, roof accessibility, material type, labor costs, and whether it’s a general repair or an emergency fix. Minor repairs can start around $150–$400, while major repairs may exceed $1,500.

4. What is the typical roof leak repair cost, and how is it calculated?

Service questions

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
