We have leveraged Wolverine contracting for years for projects ranging from painting, fixing our wet basement, and replacing rot on our house exterior. We've never had a question on their quality of work, their workers have been extremely courteous, and Doug has been super communicative throughout all projects.
We've found good handiwork hard to come by and Wolverine has been incredibly consistent for us. High recommended.

Wolverine Contracting was diligent in the prep work for our exterior paint job on our 120+-year-old house, which had never been properly painted. We appreciate what a beautiful job they did in restoring our home. Thanks!

We hired Wolverine Custom Painting to renovate the first floor of our home. It started out with a kitchen renovation and adding a shower in our half bath. It later involved moving walls to accommodate a larger laundry room and create a mudroom storage area. The project took all summer and involved every single room in our first floor (except for one room that housed most of our furniture!). We chose Wolverine Custom Painting because we had a very positive experience with the company when they painted the exterior of our home the summer before.

The project took all summer and involved every single room in our first floor (except for one room that housed most of our furniture!). We chose Wolverine Custom Painting because we had a very positive experience with the company when they painted the exterior of our home the summer before. In addition, when getting quotes for this big project, Doug Fox, the owner, seemed to be the most reasonable and willing to work in our price range. He gave me all of the receipts for the project and helped figure out different ways to save money. He is a contractor who is willing to pass savings on to his customers. He walked me through the process of renovation and has a good team of subcontractors for electrical, plumbing, etc. The only recommendation I was not pleased with was an interior designer, Elizabeth J, who was unprofessional towards Doug and me. As with any major renovation job, there are frustrations and occasions when you have to make quick decisions. Doug was very approachable and easy to contact throughout the project. John, the foreman on the job, is a very skilled carpenter (and excellent at tiles as well). He was good at being able to solve problems while keeping in mind practicality and budget. Another Doug, who is a painter, was meticulous in painting the interior of our house. He even used his craftsmanship to paint the cement on the floor to look like the slate that did not quite extend below some of the cabinets we had taken out. Being that Wolverine Custom Painting specializes in painting, this renovation project was pretty big for the company. As a result, there were issues with billing since Doug oversees all of the building projects in addition to administrative responsibilities. He is honest, hard working and dedicated, and realizes the need to hire someone to help with office responsibilities. I would highly recommend this company to anyone willing to take a chance on a small company that is branching into the home remodeling world.

I have seen this company's work on past projects, and appreciate their attention to detail. The last time I had the exterior of my house painted the job was completed a lot faster, but with inadequate preparation and attention to detail the paint job did not have the longevity or quality that I expected. With Wolverine, the attention to detail started with the inspection. Preparation was vastly better, problematic wood trim was identified and replaced, gaps and breaks in the caulk were sealed, all followed by a very good looking paint job. The work crew was diligent and respectful. It goes without saying that work of this quality consumes a l...I have seen this company's work on past projects, and appreciate their attention to detail.

It goes without saying that work of this quality consumes a lot more man hours, and cost more than the first outfit charged, but I got what I wanted this time around: a really good exterior paint job without any cutting of corners.
