Testimonials

I have spent a fair amount of time gazing at the photos and found myself in total awe at the utterly total transformation of the house. As my eyes swept around from the ceilings to the walls to the trim, I began to appreciate just how very difficult the job was for you and the incredible resolve to power on through and get it done….and get it done right!!

As you recall, I expressed great concern over the many surfaces that had clear coat and lacquer finishes, and whether your team was up to the heavy slogging it was going to take to prepare those surfaces properly and then apply the coat after coat after coat of new paint necessary to go from deep wood grained lacquer finish to a smooth Cape Cod white. Absolutely astounding.

I consider myself a pretty picky individual, yet I was dumbfounded how well your team did in handling the many trim areas which needed the most work for the transition.

We can hardly wait for you to come and complete the second (exterior) phase ………….hoping for real soon!!!!! 😊.

We are new to the Sunshine Coast and our house required a little work prior to our move in date. It can often be challenging to find good trades people; especially when you have a small window of opportunity. When we asked around for recommendations, my nephew immediately suggested we contact Cathy Nolan Painting. As a security contractor, he is quick to spot quality and detail. He had no hesitation in recommending her work. Knowing that she handles some very large contracts, we expected that it might be difficult to obtain her services. We were so impressed when Cathy responded to our request for quote almost immediately. Within 24 hours she had visited the house, provided a written quote and schedule the work to suit our timeline. Not only was the work done to perfection, the jobsite was thoroughly clean and ready to go upon our return. Cathy handles some very large impressive contracts and the job we had to offer was very small by comparison, but we were treated with the same respect as her larger clients. We did not have the pleasure of meeting the crew, but found that Cathy was very easy to work with. We are very pleased with the quality of work and that the job was completed on time and on budget. Thank you and your team for a fantastic job.

We retained Cathy to assist us with colour selection and repainting of our home in Wakefield. The results were spectacular.

Cathy’s crew showed up on the committed dates, performed the work to a very high standard, and left the home in impeccable condition.

The colour selection exceeded our expectations when the job had been completed.

We would highly recommend Cathy to provide her services to anyone.

When Cathy Nolan requested a letter of recommendation I was happy to write one to show my appreciation for her solid painting service. With many years in the trade, she is very knowledgeable and experienced in all aspects of various paints and their proper application.

Cathy Nolan Painting has been working with and for me on projects large and small; i.e. Wakefield Beach Sechelt, 46 unit waterfront community, as well as several custom homes.

Over the years she has shown a level of commitment to excellence and pride in workmanship, which is rare in today’s construction world on the Sunshine Coast.

She and her staff are very professional and courteous when dealing with schedules, deadlines, other trades and most of all the home owner.

If you are planning a painting project, want a high quality, hassle free, dependable contractor, then look no further when considering, “in my opinion”, the best painting company on the Sunshine Coast than Cathy Nolan Painting.

Cathy has been a loyal customer of ours since the day we started up in business over 10 years ago. I have always known her to be a very hard-working and dedicated individual who has always followed through with her commitments. Cathy began her own account here November 2003 and grew her business very rapidly. We have maintained a positive working relationship and always supported her business with competitive pricing and consulting advice with each job she brings us.

We further support her business with referrals to our customers, and also assist her clients with color advice on interior and exterior colour options which help the process of building go a bit smoother. We have maintained a history of all her jobs through us which further help support of customers going with all of their colours and products on file for them to refer to when needed.

We greatly appreciate all of the business Cathy has done with us over the years and look forward to doing more business with her in the future.

I would like to offer strong endorsement of Cathy Nolan painting.

As assistant site supervisor of the Wakefield Development, I was in charge of the day-to-day production of phase 2 of the project. With many things happening simultaneously, it was important to be able to rely upon the trades that were hired.

Cathy Nolan Painting always met the deadlines issued, and was never behind from a production standpoint. In essence, when I was told the job was going to be complete, it always was.

Further to this, the Cathy Nolan crew has always been courteous, professional, and friendly. When they left a particular area, one hardly would know they had been there. The crew worked both efficiently and clean, and left the area as they found it.

Finally, the quality of the work was outstanding. There was rarely any noted deficiencies, and when it was, they were fixed without objection, and promptly.

I would recommend Cathy Nolan Painting to anyone. You will be more than happy with both the quality of work, and good nature the crew. Cathy always struck true to her word, and is one of the best.
