Process went very smoothly & expeditiously. Very little time between prep & application of paint, which is very important! Our house looks great, thanks for a job well done!

My grandparents had them come out in the Fall/Winter of last year, they paid a lot of money & are supposed to come back & fix any problems as have a year warranty. Well, my grandparents have tried for over a month to get them back out to fix issues. They've had all kinds of excuses to not be able to make it when they were supposed to. Half the time my grandfather had to leave messages as no one would answer. My grandmother left a message a few weeks ago if they didn't come out soon she'd call the better business bureau. She even gave them a few weeks extra. So the owner Matt, I guess, called this morning yelling at my grandmother for calling on them saying he did come out a few weeks ago & was gonna come back out but now is not. . Claiming they didn't have any missed calls or voicemails from us either. So, I would not recommend going to them for anything!! They will take advantage of you!! A good business should Never yell at a customer, I don't know where this guy got his schooling from but that should never happen, no matter how upset you may be. If needed, may have to seek after legal counsel on the matter!! **That should have been explained to my grandparents before doing anything, & receiving money from them. That is good business. . Calling a customer & yelling at them is not!! That is very poor business, & taking advantage of older people when you don't explain properly, & misleading them. They were under the impression that you guys would fix anything needing fixing before painting. Again, you guys did not communicate with them properly, & then get upset when you get reported. All you had to say in the beginning is you couldn't do what they needed, & they wouldn't have spent all that money & could have looked somewhere else. That just goes to show good reviews mean nothing when looking up services. Again, just from poor communication & customer service. . We'll never recommend your company to anyone!!

Thank you for your review. Again, as the response on the other review your family has posted states; we are a painting company. We are not responsible in any way, shape or form for the leak your grandparents' roof has had for quite some time. We are not contractors and are not permitted via the county and state to do the repair work necessary to fix the leaks in the roof. (You have to hire a roofing contractor with special licenses.) We were contracted and paid to paint the roof. We painted the roof and also received a signed completion certificate showing customer satisfaction as well as final payment. The warranty covers the replacement of the paint if it cracks, chips, or peels. None of these have happened. Rhino Shield is a great long-lasting paint! We are sorry you and your family find the fact that paint does not fix leaks to be an unsatisfactory response. We intended on helping fix the leaks regardless of where the fault lies (we understand roof repairs can be costly) but your family seems to be punishing us for trying to do so. We hope your grandparents are able to find a contractor to resolve their leaky roof.

My grandparents paid Panhandle Painting & Design LLC to paint/fix their roof. The payment was made on 11/17, and the company painted the roof. However, a few days later, the roof started leaking. Despite the company's guarantee to fix any issues within the first year, my grandmother has been calling for three weeks without a satisfactory response. Tomorrow, they are supposed to come out, but apparently, similar promises have been made before. I will update if they show up. UPDATE: Matt showed up the next day and said he would come back out and fix the issue. That was over a week ago and we haven’t heard from him again. We have called and left messages, no response. We have since call the Better Business Bureau. Monday, January 8th, 2024 Matt the owner of the company called and yelled at my grandmother saying she shouldn't have called BBB and he isn't coming out anymore. Do not use this company.

Response from the owner

Thank you for your review. We enjoyed Beautifying your grandparents' roof. However, we were not contracted to "fix" any current issues with the roof. We are a painting company. We primarily use Rhino Shield Exterior Coating which is an elastomeric ceramic paint that can help extend the life of your roof, change the color, and help you save on energy costs! This coating is backed by a 25-year warranty! As a company, we also provide a 1-year warranty on the workmanship. This does not extend past the coating itself considering we are not changing the current condition of the material that is being painted. Although we are not responsible for any issues with the roof itself, we are a family owned and operated company and continue to treat all of our customers like family. This is why we will continue to work on this matter with your grandparents. Thank you

This review is for Panhandle Paint and Design. A crew came out this morning at the time I was advised they would. They were pleasant and worked very hard to turn our gross garage floor into a beautiful surface that we can be proud of. The price paid was what was agreed and it was fair and reasonable. The men left the area clean and neat and our floor Looking beautiful! Thank you so very much. I will try to attach before and after photos of the floor. The stains on the floor and its horrible condition were inherited by us when we bought the home 3 years ago. Chuck and Linda Connell

I waited to review Rhino Shield to see how it holds up to the waterfront salt air, wind, and sun of West Florida. I have to say it has not disappointed me. The folks who did the work were exceptional. They were here when they said they would be, were professional, and did an excellent job, completing the work in a timely manner. I highly recommend them and would hire them again.

Response from the owner

Stewart, your feedback means the world to us! Thank you for choosing Rhino Shield & for taking the time to share your experience with us.

They came out quickly to give us an estimate. The estimate was not that much more than traditional paint and the Rhino Shield has a much longer warranty! They started the project within a couple of weeks of the estimate and finished in 1 week. They worked hard and did a great job of cleaning up at the end of each day. Our house looks updated and we are extremely happy with the outcome!

Response from the owner

We are so glad that you love your "new" home. Thank you for the wonderful review!!!!

Salesman was very good at telling us what to expect and how it worked. The workers came when they said they would and were very good and prompt in finishing the job. They kept us informed as to the progress and finished on time. I highly recommend Rhino Shield to anyone that is thinking about painting or repainting their house.

Response from the owner

Gary, thank you so much for the recommendation and for the amazing feedback on the team - we're so glad to hear that we were able to provide a great experience throughout the process!
