We’re looking for a great painter and someone who really understands how to fix-up pre-war buildings: Make the painted over-and-over moldings look fresh and new; Sharpen the edges and corners of walls; Nice detailing, etc. It’s a 1000 sq ft. place – 2 bedrooms, 1 bath.

Our broker recommended Eric Nadoban and said he does great work – in fact, he has done a few places in our Co-Op before.

The problem is that I can’t find any reviews of his company’s work online and I think other people’s reviews and recommendations are key to finding good people. He quoted me anywhere from 5-20K (depending on the job, of course), but after we spoke for about 20 minutes he guessed about 5-7K (he knew the actual layout and tile work in the apartment, which was a good indicator that he had worked in our building before).

Here is his site: http://nadobanpainting.com/

Has anyone had experience with them before?
Can you recommend some other people (before and after pics would be great) so we can do a comparison?
