On 7/20/2026 Mary Ann Hatton had this to say:
Craig and his team are beyond professional!! They are fast, precise and neat. We appreciate using A Spectrum because they are consistent as well as courteous. Best painters around in Lake County!!

On 7/16/2026 Jason Rogers had this to say:
As a former property manager I really didn't want to hire out to paint/fix cracks and imperfections on a 20 year old home I purchased last year, as I used to do a lot of this work myself. But I'm retired now and don't do well on ladders like I used to and our home has high vaulted ceilings and sky lights that needed extra work as we as they were never properly painted/sealed by the original builder or previous homeowners. That being said, I have never worked with a more knowledgeable and professional company. Craig and his team were prompt, professional, clean and efficient. Their quality of work was top tier. Communication was prompt and professional and they always showed up on time or early to accommodate my schedule. They painted the ceilings of our entire first floor, fixing nail pops, cracks and gaps around skylights and attic access that were never filled when the home was built. They also painted the walls of our primary bedroom, kitchen, living room, dining room, office and hallways and fixed multiple holes left by the previous owner. My initial response to the bid was a bit of sticker shock, but Craig took the time to walk me through the issues that he found when he did his bid, and honestly, after seeing the quality and thorough nature of the work, I realize that, if anything, it could have been much higher. It has been a few months since we had the work done, and I can say I am very happy with the quality of the paint used as the smell was minimal and dissipated in days. It cleans up well as we have had to clean some kitchen splatters and various scuffs since the work was completed. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

A Spectrum was hired to paint my upstairs bedroom, hallway and doors. They did such a superb job that I had this company come back and paint my kitchen, family room, dining room, powder room and laundry room. Craig does a thorough and absolutely flawless job. The colors he suggested were not only beautiful but gave a flow to my house as soon as you enter my front door. Which by the way he re-stained and looks brand new.

On 4/14/2026 S R had this to say:
I was extremely impressed. Craig is a straight shooter who won't BS around. When my original painter disappeared on us, he was willing to fill in. Though my painter did show up, he kept in contact to make sure we were taken care of. When that painter used the wrong ceiling paint in a bathroom, Craig stepped in and used his local knowledge to bring the exact paint we needed just in time.

On 11/4/2025 Bobble Cunnally had this to say:
Company does fantastic painting. They are neat, clean and fast. Craig goes out of his way to please his customers, offers great advice and is vary professional and hardworking.
