Alex and his team are FABULOUS! They did a few jobs for my condo:
1) Painted the old oak kitchen cabinets white
2) Painted my backsplash area and any remnants of the old red paint
3) Painted one of my walls, and fixed it's damages from the previous owners
4) Painted my half bathroom
5) Fixed my ceiling hole from a leak, and painted it to match the rest of the ceiling
Now let me start off by saying I don't usually leave reviews, but I had to for Alex and his team because I am so thankful for the great job they did! I had spoken to a few contractors, but Alex's price was the best and completely fair, AND he was very responsive and collaborative which isn't very common.
When Alex and his team came for the job, they all did a great job. I was really impressed with their professionalism and work ethic. They always cleaned up entirely after, and were prompt to arrive when scheduled. I even left them alone while I was out multiple times, and I trusted them 100%.
And the most important part--the quality of their work was excellent. I am a PICKY person when it comes to home renovations. So the fact that I was genuinely so happy and pleased with the results says a lot. I love how everything turned out, and the paint jobs were great. No sloppiness, no sign of rushing, nothing. Part of the paint needed in the kitchen was to paint the kitchen wall (backsplash area), and they made sure to paint every part, even the parts that are covered by the fridge or stove. They could have easily skipped that and I would have never noticed, but they didn't.
I've received SO many compliments from people who have seen the changes, and I immediately referred Alex and his team to my neighbors for their renovations as well (they start this week!).
Lastly--Alex and his team are just great people at the end of the day as well. They helped give me honest opinions on paint colors when I was stuck, they were kind to help install my blinds (which had nothing to do with the job) when I was having difficulty, and Alex genuinely listened to everything I wanted when I was explaining things to him.
100% go and call Alex, they will not disappoint! I will be calling Alex for all my future jobs.

Alex responded to my inquiry immediately, and was able to provide a quote the next day. His price was very fair. He was able to put me on his schedule without me having to wait weeks. He was timely, efficient and did a fantastic job! I will be using Empire again!

Good quality work and very prompt getting to work on time. Perfect example of under promise and overdeliver which is hard to say about other contractors in the area.

The free quote was done extremely fast (same day) and the job was finished within one week. The team was professional, timely, and very clean (nothing to pick up after, they left the area clean). Will definitely use them again

Alex and his team spent a good part of 4 full days painting our office suite. They moved all furniture (heavy) and placed it all back while keeping the office clean. The painting itself was outstanding. Highly recommended.
