Ideal General Services Inc

Ideal General Services Inc., trading online as IGS Painting, is a family-run shop in Peabody built around interior and exterior painting, with gutter cleaning, window washing, power washing, and snow removal filling out the rest of the calendar. The company describes itself as family owned and says it's been at this for roughly a decade — though its own Angi listing puts the figure at 21 years, so either number is best treated as a loose estimate rather than a fact. There isn't much of a paper trail to check that history against. The only outside rating on file is a 0.5 out of 5 on Angi, and it comes from a single review from 2020 that carries no written explanation, just the score. One review is too thin to call a pattern, but it's also the only independent read available, and it isn't reassuring. Before booking, ask directly for recent customer references and photos of finished painting or exterior work, since neither shows up in any public review yet. Get current proof of insurance and a written scope for the specific job in mind — none of that is documented anywhere public right now.
