Our Take on Earl's Paintworks Inc.

Company Background
About Earl's Paintworks Inc.
Earl's Paintworks Inc. is one of the few Calgary painters open on Saturdays, with Google hours of 9 AM to 5 PM Monday to Saturday. The company says it has been in business since 2007 and that Earl works on site alongside a full-time journeyman crew, a structure that reviewers pick up on without prompting. Michel's family had Earl and his team redo the main and upper floors, with all baseboards, trim, kitchen and vanities, and the house was masked in three days. Ali said Earl gave a reasonable, timely quote on exterior trim.
The service list is wide for a company this size. It paints interiors, exteriors, stucco, kitchens, bathrooms, ceilings and trim, offers fine finish spraying and cabinet refinishing, stains decks, removes popcorn ceilings and wallpaper, and takes commercial work. It also publishes neighbourhood pages for Bel-Aire, Elboya, Mount Royal, Roxboro and Scarboro, and shows project photos from Altadore, Aspen Woods, Elbow Park and Patterson.
On paper the company lists BBB accreditation, WCB and membership in the Alberta Painting Contractors Association. Alberta has no provincial painter licence, so ask for the WCB clearance letter and an insurance certificate. The warranty is stated plainly: if a problem arises with the paint application within 3 years, the company comes out and fixes it at no cost. It does not warranty fences, decks, railings or walk-on surfaces, fading, tannin bleed or colour bleed on pressure treated wood.
Shannon said other companies told her the whole ceiling would need re-stippling, while Earl's team repaired only the damaged areas. Franco said the crew restored a deck in a single day, sanding to bare wood and staining. The five recent reviews read were all five stars. The honest limit is the warranty exclusion on decks, which matters if staining is your main job.
It suits inner-city homeowners with repairs mixed into the painting. It suits less well people who want a deck warranty. Before booking, ask for a written quote with prep, coats and products, read the warranty page, and request WCB clearance. 5.0 from 166 Google reviews, read November 2, 2026.
