Painting in Partnership wins National Residential Interior Award

A local Painting Contractor, Painting in Partnership, Inc., has just won the National Residential Interior Award in the prestigious Picture It Painted Professionally competition sponsored by the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America, a St. Louis-based association, which has been the voice of the painting industry for over 125 years.

The project was the Hohmann Residence of North Barrington, a large estate boasting extensive painted woodwork, vaulted ceilings, a finished basement with 10' ceilings and a master suite "where you could raise a family". The walls were builder-white everywhere! The owners, Diane and Jim Hohmann, had a dream for this magnificent house: making it a gracious home that also expressed the personalities of everyone in the family.

The owners interviewed many painting contractors for the project. They were about ready to throw in the towel, when they decided to respond to a direct marketing post card from Painting in Partnership that featured the picture of a team and a simple promise:

Peace of Mind
Pride in the Finished Work
Delight

The work involved the painting of almost all the wall surfaces in the house, including the closets and some of the ceilings. The work also involved the decorating of some key areas in the house that included metallic ornamentation, decorative finishes, textures and mural elements. The project involved over 800 hours of labor to complete it. The dining room alone required 100 hours of labor!

This is what Diane had to say about her experience:

"I was educated, enlightened and engaged. Your Team really listened to me as we worked through the process on our project. I feel that all your employees are true artists and professionals, and their commitment, creativity and craftsmanship are evident in the finished product. The process was fun!"

A promise fulfilled!
