Customer Reviews
Elaine Mailman
In May 2024, Elite Trade Painting painted the exterior of my house. I am as happy today with the job as I was the day it was painted. It looks great and Shawn was easy to work (scheduling, price, helping to decide on complementary colours, etc). The worksite was kept very tidy, and I don't there was a drop of paint (other than on the house) on my property when the crew was finished. Great experience overall.
Kelly Pottle
We recently had the exterior of our home painted by Elite Trade Painting. The crew (Deepak, Raj & Munish) did a terrific job. They were diligent, hard workers but also very personable and respectful to our property. They kept the worksite very neat and tidy. We are very pleased with the outcome and would not hesitate to recommend Elite Trade Painting for any of your painting needs. From the original estimate to the scheduling and completion of the work, it was a smooth process.

We are very very happy with the external paint job that was done on our house! As well as deck staining. It looks fantastic! Shawn was amazing to work with, quick & friendly communication, very reasonable prices. Chris & the team of painters were very friendly & professional and made sure we were happy every step of the way. We will definitely work with this company again in the near future for interior painting. Thanks guys!!

5-Stars All-Around!!
Elite Painting and Shawn Donaldson are hands-down the best experience I've had with not just painters, but contractors overall!
The company has easy-to-use systems, they are on top of everything, are highly responsive, knowledgeable about what they do, and fast and super affordable.
I was AMAZED at how fast they painted a whole house for me (started Thursday and were done by Saturday). The quality was great, they didn't cut corners and slop around. They worked on weekends and got the job done.
Super happy with this experience and will recommend to everyone! Thank you, Shawn! Great work!

Can't believe what a great job they did on my house, we will definitely be hiring them again when it comes time to do the front porch! They are very professional and accommodating, answered all of my questions and made me feel that they truly care about my family enjoying spending time in our home. Also love that they only use the best quality paint, and it clearly shows in the work they do!
