Creative Paint & My Paint Stop

Not very professional

by drabelais at Citysearch

We canceled an order we were told would take 2 days within 5 minutes (we needed it sooner...) and they refused, claiming it was already finished. Why say it will take two days if it takes 10 minutes? That's just silly. And then Cliff and Norm insulted us on top of that by recommending a flat sheen for exterior trim. Flat doesn't hold outside, every body knows that, unless you want to repaint every year. This is unacceptable. I wouldn't recommend that store for good experience or professional advice.

• Pros: Carries Benjamin Moore
• Cons: Bad painting advice and bad attitude

great staff, great paint

these guys rock, especially if you are a painter. they mix up a sweet blend of paint and have great product. they are not a hardware store, they are a PAINT store. oh, I could drive out to home depot for a slightly cheaper, less desirable paint, along with nightmare parking, but I won't. Creative paint is well worth a visit.

extreamly knowledgeable (but with a grain of salt)

i went to four different paint stores, and no one knew what they were talking about. but creative paint they knew exactly what i needed and how to do it. the staff was really friendly and helped me with everything. the only problems i had was it is super expensive, and i think they might have over charged me on a couple of items by a few bucks. also, i had thought of a painting technique for how i wanted my walls to look, then they convinced me it wouldnt work, but it did end up working. bottom line, great staff, great selection, but expensive and take their advice with a grain of salt.
