Need Painting & General Home Repair

Does anybody have any suggestions of a painter/gen contractor on the South Side. We are having a difficult time finding contractors who do quality work... most don't even return phone calls. Currently we need some walls skim coated to cover cracks in the plaster and then painted. But are looking to build a long term relationship with a quality contractor as we have a lot of other work to be done.

What can I do next?

We use a young man, Tony Budick, who is a painter. He can repair dry wall and cracks, and does an amazing job with color choices and faux finishes. His number is ###-###-#### (cell).

When he did our house, he picked out a color for our family room that I was so uncertain about. He put it on the wall and it looked like a million bucks. We then gave him the OK to do the whole house in whatever colors he wanted. He was an art student and has an eye for colors. People came over and saw our house and hired him too. He worked for 2-1/2 years off of people seeing our house and them wanting him to paint their houses too. Their other friends then saw their houses and wanted him too, and so on. He did a friend's high rise condo near the lake and it looks like a picture out of a magazine!

We've used Creative Painting and Decorating for plaster repair in our home and they painted the exterior of our home (included much repair of stucco, replaced wood, and did a myriad of other fixes) just last year. Very fair pricing and definitely quality work. I can't find their number right now but they are in the Beverly area and are listed in the phone book under the name above. Good Luck!
