Michael, the owner of the company was highly professional and did well with the overall completion of 'the work'. 'The project', however, was not up to standard. I've spent countless hours removing over spray and splatter, which could have been avoided by a trip to Dollarama and $20 worth of masking. Garbage was left at my residence, damaged areas unaddressed unless I prompted remediation, poor project cleaning, and X2 miscommunications between myself and my real estate agent (ie Michael told them XYX but never told myself). Some of his workers began painting an area that was out of scope, which is of course appreciated. That said, Michael kept framing this as a 'favour', and in my opinion, it affected the in-scope quality of the project negatively. Damage was made to my hardwood floors from a lack of basic care (using a stepladder that was not company supplied and carelessly ignoring a missing pad) , and much like the poor masking work, this left me with a less than favourable impression. He did attempt to remediate, and I credit him on that front. All I can say is that nobody appreciates having their floor damaged and spending hours cleaning up overspray from a lack of contractor detail. At the price point, which was fair for both parties, I expected better project management. That said, the actual paint work was indeed well performed. I think he just might need better crew management in the future.

We were truly happy with the work done by Michael and his crew. Not only were they on time, but their setup and take down was tody and proficient. The painting was done with clean lines and thorough coverage of walled areas.

Michael and his team do incredible work. I’ve seen them bring numerous homes to life with the touch of their paintbrush. Their standards and quality are consistently high, and they truly stand out from the average painter in the Durham Region.

Moved into a 3 floor townhouse a few months ago. Had wonderful movers, however moving 4 full bedrooms sets and downsizing resulted in alot of nicks and dings on my walls.Have very high ceilings. Just needed a fresh coat of paint after I filled most of the holes/nicks and dings that were on my walls.Came across Altona Painting by a recommendation on a Whitby Facebook group.Michael Cappa (owner) returned my text message right away. We set up an appointment for the next day and he visited my home for a quote.A few days later (just before xmas), Michael and two of his team members, Andrew and Darnelle were painting my walls. Even with my boys being home, they stopped and worked around us if we needed to go upstairs or back downstairs.Very friendly and professional. Paid a great price too. Michael worked around my budget!

The Altona team painted our house a little over a year ago when we moved. There were a lot of logistics to account for with the move and Michael was very helpful and solutions oriented. We’re really happy with the service and quality of the work and definitely recommend!

Altona Painting is the best. We recently had our popcorn ceiling removed and the main floor of our house painted and we're glad we chose Altona Painting! When they started work on the ceiling they discovered some unforeseen structural problems. They made the appropriate repairs, and did an excellent job. The crew was efficient and very friendly - a pleasure to have in our home. The work they did was fantastic. We definitely give them a thumbs up!

Top notch !! We have hired Altona painting for a few projects now both at our current and previous residences. We have always found the quality and service to be great. The team consistently delivers a stress free experience. Would recommend highly !!

Great first experience with Michael and the Team! Sellers loved the result, the timeliness and how the property was kept clean during the job! We won’t hesitate to contact them and refer them again! Thanks Michael!

Michael and his team were professional, on time and clean. Happy with the painting.

Altona Painting far exceeded our expectations. From my initial contact with Michael, I felt this would be a worth while investment. Michael is extremely thorough in the quoting process and happy to work to customize your project. We had kitchen cabinets that were a dated colour but in good shape. After getting some quotes to replace the door and drawer fronts, we felt it just wouldnt look as good, we decided to work with Alton Painting. The entire pricess was seamless, great communication, quick yet thorough workers who were clean and polite, and a finish that looks too good to be true! We are extremely excited and thrilled with the results and would recommend Alton Painting to anyone!Don't hesistate, they are worht every penny!

Quick, clean work, very communicative and flexible.

Michael and the team did an amazing job! Great communication and very thorough walkthrough from Michael to start. The team did an excellent job prepping the walls to perfection before painting all the interior walls (which were badly damaged and scuffed). Can't fault their work and a nice bunch of guys too, very professional. Would highly recommend.

Altona Painting was a positive experience. From the quote with Michael to the crew. Everything was done on time and with high quality. The exterior jobs look fantastic!

2025-09-05T17:04:24.353Z

We were so pleased with the results of the excellent painting job of our windows and doors on our home. The painting job met beyond our expectations. All looked just like new. Your crew and yourself were very professional and respectful of us and our home. They arrived on time and did a wonderful job and cleaned up all the areas where they had painted. Also, they were able to complete the job before the estimated time and did an excellent job. We will certainly recommend Altona Painting to any one who may inquire about the service as well as our family and friends.

Michael and his team was referred by my local Dulux paint salesman. I was impressed by Michael's consultation and the flexibility he extended to me about the dates as things came up. The team of 7 descended on my house and worked efficiently and professionally with each other even with me underfoot. They quickly picked up and handed off tasks to each other and when only 3 appeared the next day, they still knew exactly how to carry on. Wall prep was done with a keen eye making a clean canvas for painting. Kevin finished our bedroom in one day. Dave worked like an artist on the living room/kitchen. Darnelle took care of quality control. The other 3 painters were clearly experienced painters too.(I just can't remember their names) My walls look amazing.I highly recommend Altona painting.

Altona Painting (Michael Cappa and his team) patched, prepared, painted and make perfect all of the interior walls of my 30 year old home. This was the first paint job in that 30 years, and they had a lot of challenges with nail pops, settling, twisted or bent corner bead and generally worse than average original construction, along with things that couldn’t be moved out the way to get better access. I decided to paint the whole house in one job, and Michael expertly guided me through the whole process. It was an absolute pleasure. His team is experienced, talented, and are sticklers for details. They make it right, no matter how bad the starting situation. I sincerely appreciate working with a professional team who keep me informed, offer recommendations, take appropriate precautions to protect my possessions and, through Michael, manage the budget as well as they do. Thanks to Andew (x2), Fadi, Shane, Alaura, Mark, Kevin and Darnell. Hire Michael and the Altona crew – highly recommended!

I recently hired Altona Painting for some exterior work. Michael was professional and very personable. Darnelle and Andrew did excellent work. My window box was tricky and needed repairs along with painting. Darnelle and Andrew worked hard on it and made sure it was done properly and well. Great customer service and a great experience from start to finish. I highly recommend!

2025-07-22T12:59:42.931Z

Excellent service from the beginning to the end.Would not hesitate to recommend this company
