Customer Reviews

Tyler Shrewsbury

We had a fantastic experience with The Paint Doctor! From the very beginning, Noelle was incredibly quick to come out and provide us with a quote. She was prompt, professional, and did a great job setting clear expectations before the project even began. The quote was sent quickly and the whole process felt very organized. During the project, Chris did an excellent job maintaining communication and keeping us updated every step of the way. It made the entire experience stress-free. The painter who worked in our home—Jesus, if I remember correctly—was outstanding. He treated our home and belongings with great care and was extremely respectful while working. I had quite a few requests for this job, and the team handled everything perfectly without me needing to follow up or remind them about anything. They truly went above and beyond. Thank you to The Paint Doctor for “reviving” our walls. We couldn’t be happier with the results and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for quality painting work!

Hiring the Paint Dr was the best experience my wife have ever had with a painting contractor! Noelle was professional, informative and over saw the job from start to finish. Their crew headed by Jesus were timely, professional, hard working , conscientious, and clean workers we have ever dealt with. Our basement looks amazing and after they left you would never know they were there. They protected all non painted items and areas. The workmanship and quality of the job was excellent! We cannot say enough about the experience and quality of the work.

This past week, my wife and I observed a damaged seam between a wall and the ceiling in the master bedroom, apparently caused by home settling. I searched online for a painting company that served Sussex County, DE and discovered a family-owned company based in Newark, DE known as “Paint Doctor” who has served Delaware and surrounding areas for 20 years. I made an appointment for an estimate and the owner, Rich Edwards, arrived to view the damage. I had his estimate by the end of the day and accepted the contract. Rich assigned the job to his painter, Valerio, who completed the job in two days, including spackling and painting, restoring the seam to pristine condition. I would highly recommend Paint Doctor for interior or exterior painting, repairs or remodeling services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are estimates free?

Does Paint Doctor move furniture before interior painting?

Its prep process includes moving and protecting furniture.

How long do exterior projects take?

Most exterior projects take 2–5 days, depending on the home’s size, preparation needs and weather.

What happens if rain is expected during an exterior job?

Paint Doctor avoids painting when rain is expected. If the weather changes unexpectedly, the crew stops and adjusts the schedule.

Do cabinets need to be emptied for painting?
