The initial contact was professional and courteous. Had to book the appointment months in advance and was required to pay a substantial deposit up front. When it came closer to the time to paint I had to contact the company to see when they were planning on starting and after received a call out of the blue saying they would show up tomorrow after I explained I would need to remove an old deck prior to painting.

They sent one guy to paint our house, one guy. Our home isn't a mansion but not small it took this poor guy almost 2 weeks to complete the job by himself. The painters work was ok but he missed a few areas and spilled paint on the roof which he tried to clean up, I guess it will wear off in time. My daughter used another company that charged quite a bit less and they were done in 3 days. I feel we were way over charged for this job. I wouldn't recommend this company.

In the summer of 2020, to execute the job in the summer of 2021, our Condo Association sent an RFP to 5 painting companies, all with A+ ratings at BBB and positive reviews. GSL (Greg) made a site visit promptly and followed with a comprehensive written bid. Although GSL was not the lowest bid, it was competitive and considereing his timely response and prior client reviews, he was the selected company.

Late May 2021, they started the job. Miguel was the master painter who executed the job as an accomplished craftsman. At completion, there were minor touchups that were corrected as noticed. Greg followed up with an open invitation that if any of us noted something that had been overlooked, let him know and they would take care of it. GSL will be on our RFP list when we are due for our next painting.

GSL Painting not only was incredibly responsive to my urgent need to accomplish a quick turn around for painting a large 3 car garage but it included 3 interior doors, man door, utility closet door, door to enter home but also a 2 car garage door & single car garage door (3 car garage). Not to mention all the walls and ceiling. The owner came out the next day after my call and gave me a more than fair estimate but was able to turn it around on my time frame for a closing on this house and sent the most professional team of painters I've yet to see in my 30 years living in Anchorage.

I must say as we are also preparing to move and many other repairs are being accomplished, I made a huge blunder, as is automatic for me, as I returned from an errand while they were painting & already completed the work intensive "tape masking" I push the garage door opener to return home as I always do, (monkey man mode) and quickly realized as I view the masking tape ripping from the bottom portion of the garage door, I am horrified and attempted to lower garage, nope, with those optical sensors, only up was happening and the more I panicked, the worse it got. Finally, realizing this, I yelled "Pull The Red Rope" disengaging the chain to the opener.

Oh man, was sick of the thought of walking in and seeing an hour or two of work just wiped away with my ignorance. Went in to take the well deserved punishment only to see and hear total professionalism. I apologized 100 times, but the crew manager (owner's Son, which I didn't know at the time) was incredibly calm and said "no worries" and later said "it wasn't that bad actually". yeah right I thought, I knew at the end of the day, this would be the "idiot house owner of the day story" back at the shop.

The point of the story is that GSL Painting has the best most professional teams working, the paint job was flawless, matched the paint perfectly and the new owners loved it. A little advice for homeowners, either remove your "clicker" or lock the auto garage doors before heading out. Thank You GSL Painting, if you have a job here in Alaska you should call them today!

The badly worn and neglected stain on my cedar siding home was on its last legs, and I couldn't be happier with the results of getting it painted with Greg and GSL. I had a very hard time getting painting contractors to actually follow their word and make a site-visit to actually send me a bid. Of those that did, they didn't match expertise and attention to detail that Greg displayed.

He was very up front and honest explaining that while the price would be higher than what I might expect, a lot of prep work would be needed to make sure my home would last for years to come while being painted -- as removing the stain, sanding and making minor repairs to the very worn cedar was crucial for making a long-lasting finish. He was also kind, courteous and always helpful with all my questions (of which I had several), and even when there were a few concerns during the painting process, he made sure to address anything that I was worried about very quickly.

From beginning to end, Greg and his crew were professional and showed great care and attention to me as a customer. Greg was quick to remind me that GSL isn't going anywhere, and if I ever had issues with the paint, to give them a call. Our "new" home looks wonderful and I can't recommend them enough!

Greg's team repainted the new Cyrano's Theatre Building at 3800 Debarr Road and we are extremely pleased with the work! It was a great experience working with GSL from start to finish. We obtained quotes from several painting companies and what made GSL rise to the top was the excellent customer service and personal attention. Greg met me at the building and walked all the way around, asking detailed questions and offering expert advice.

He was patient while we took forever to choose paint colors, and his team got the job done quickly and it looks fantastic. And when we asked for a couple of small touch-ups/changes, they didn't hesitate to come back and take care of those issues. Would definitely recommend GSL!

We were extremely impressed with the job GSL Painting has done painting our house. They are meticulous and very thorough. The crew didn't rush through the job just to get it done. We could tell that they were being careful and seem to want to do quality work. The crew was also very professional, considerate and polite. Communication between us, the crew and the owner was prompt and clear.

The house had an unbelievable amount of prep work. It needed it because it hadn't been painted for 23 years! The house was sanded, caulked, and primed. The paint was sprayed on and then rolled to set in the paint. Extreme care was taken to protect plants, windows and other objects that were nearby. Greg, the owner, came by several times during the work week to make sure things were going smoothly.

After the job was completed, Greg performed a walk-around with me, allowing me to critique the work and ask for any other work or improvements. Of course, the job was perfect! This company took no shortcuts, but delivered professional, careful and beautiful work. We would recommend this GSL Painting to anyone wanting excellent, quality work. We feel like we got the best job possible!

I came in contact with GSL Painting through a good friend that had his house painted last year - he was very satisfied with the work and professionalism. I met with the owner, Greg, earlier this spring to discuss my project. I told Greg what I wanted but explained that I had construction taking place and my timeline had to be fluid as I was at the mercy of spring weather and other contractors.

He understood and was very flexible. When my project was ready for paint GSL was on it. The crews had excellent attention to detail and asked questions when faced with choices that needed answers. This job involved three separate buildings and took time. Greg explained that his crews would do it right, not necessarily fast and I was very pleased with that response.

At the completion of the project I was extremely satisfied. The work was excellent and the price was exactly as quoted. By the way, the price was very fair. I will use GSL for all of my future painting needs and recommend GSL to everyone I know. I would give six stars if that was an option!

I highly recommend Greg and his team for any painting projects. Greg's Team just finished painting the exterior of my home and the quality of work is exceptional. Greg is also very professional and made the process easy for us. He is also open to every requests we'd asked of him and made sure that we are satisfied and happy with the end result. I will use Greg again when I paint the interior of my house. Thanks Greg and team!

Greg and his team did a great job on our new home. The paint job is very good, and the trim looks bright and fresh. I was very impressed with Greg's communication with us throughout the whole process. He returns calls promptly, sets and meets deadlines, and explains everything thoroughly. Reliable, trustworthy, and hardworking- everything we could want in a contractor! We recommend him wholeheartedly and would hire him again in an instant.

GSL Painting is the BEST! They recently painted the exterior of my house and they did such an AMAZING job it honestly looks like a new house! It had not been painted since it was originally built and it needed A LOT of help! Greg and his team were thorough, detailed, and careful. They completely prepped the house (power washed it and even did some minor repairs, ) thoroughly primed it and then did an exceptional job of painting it with great attention to detail.

They were friendly, courteous and very responsive (getting back to me right away) and they did a great job of communicating what they were going to do and when. They were efficient, and professional with a great work ethic. I also appreciate that GSL Painting is a business that's been locally owned and operated by three generations of an Alaskan family for over 25 years. Greg and his boys definitely set a VERY high standard and they delivered!

I highly recommend GSL Painting and wish there were more than 5 stars to give them. I LOVE coming home and seeing my new fresh, beautiful house, makes me smile every time~thank you GSL! :)

When GSL Painting did the original walk-around the house, I was impressed with Greg's hands on examination of existing old paint. He pointed out problem areas and suggested solutions. After the job, he did another thorough walk around. He made me feel I was in good hands and did such a great job, I hired him to paint another house.

GSL Painting painted the exterior of my large three-story home including spray coating two decks and fence. The house had not been painted in 20 years so it took extra effort. They did a beautiful high quality job. I especially like the responsiveness and good communications they provide.

It has been a pleasure working with Greg and his company regarding the exterior painting of Widgeon Court condominiums. The workmen have all been very courteous and professional and, once started, the project was completed in a timely manner with quality results. Please use our name for recommendations in the future. Cord and I would happily provide recommendations for future projects.

Funny, we ended up going with Ron not because he had the cheapest bid but because we really liked him. He is friendly, honest and straightfoward. We really liked his sense of humor as well. The painting job came out really good and I like that he has a really long warranty.

Ron is awesome. We needed our home painted and we got a couple different bids from various painting companies around town. Ron was not the cheapest but he sold us on value and his warranty. The work he did was great and the home looks great.
