Ken Lussenden Contracting is an excellent firm that does high quality work.
I have worked with this company for at least 15 years and have never had a bad experience.
On the contrary, the crews are highly skilled, on time, clean up after themselves and finish on time.
In a tight time squeeze situation, they are able to rise to the occasion and get the work done despite any surprises, and in working on old houses, there can be many surprises.
I highly recommend them for all your painting and contracting needs.

I'd like to take a minute to thank you for the work you did on the Telluride House.
The job looks great!
Omar & Kevin were wonderful to have on site and I truly appreciate all of the extra effort they put forth to insure a good, professional experience.
I look forward to continuing the work next year.

We could not have been happier with our experience with Ken Lussenden contracting. We hired Ken to scrape and paint the exterior trim of our 150 yr. old farmhouse. It was very detailed trim at one time very beautiful trim but after years of neglect it was in bad shape and certainly not appealing to the eye. Our instructions to Ken were to scrape just enough so that the new paint would adhere; this was because scrapping to the point of restoration would be too costly. Not only was the crew extremely friendly and courteous the job they did literally blew us away!! I kid you not when they were done we could not believe our eyes. It was like going back in time the trim was as beautiful as if it were just installed brand new. I literally had to call family & friends to tell them about the transformation. The crew recommended a certain kind of paint to use they said it was more expensive but it would be worth it in the end. All in all our experience with Ken Lussenden Contracting could not have been better. The job you did was GREATLY appreciated.

Ken Lussenden and his team are professional in every way, responsive to inquiries and questions, in regular communication, and, especially important, providing excellent work, in my case, exterior house painting and minor repairs. The crew members, all of them very nice and polite, began within the time frame that was given, worked steadily every day on a regular schedule, took care about plantings and other property, and cleaned up well at the end of the day. Ken and Jamie, who was the crew leader for my project, were very thoughtful about prioritizing what work needed to be done: work needing immediate attention to maintain structural integrity and prevent further decline, versus work that could wait another year or was more cosmetic. They did so with my input and also keeping in mind the overall budget. The work that was completed was done at a reasonable price, particularly given its high quality: the painting looks very good and, having observed the meticulous prep work that was done for all the surfaces, I have confidence it will last a long time. This was my first time working with Ken and I plan to use his services again.

It went extremely well. Very punctual. Explained in detail what they were doing every day and kept a log of hours worked and material used and shared the information with me. The owner, Ken, would check in periodically and see how things were going and if we were satisfied. The porch is beautiful and the paint job is great. They were excellent with the cleanup also. Would always ask before doing anything that wasn't listed in the contract that we hadn't discussed in detail before proceeding. They were aware of the budget and kept to it. Would highly recommend them and I will definitely use them again for future projects.
