I hired CertaPro to paint my living room, dining room, hallway, and entryway. They were extremely professional and efficient. Their lines were absolutely perfect, and they made my once hole-ridden walls look perfectly smooth. Four painters completed the job in just seven hours, and they cleaned up after themselves when they were done. Highly recommended!

Description of Work: CertaPro painted the interior first floor and the second floor hallway in our home. They also painted all exterior trim. |Chris, the owner of Certa pro Of East Islip is very professional. Chris keep all appointments promptly, the project was started and finished in the time frame that Chris promised. The estimate given by Chris was close to others that we had gotten, the edge went to CertaPro due to their availability (we did have time constraints). |Unfortunately, Chris does not do any painting and his professionalism did not "carry over" to all members of his crew. CertaPro sent up to six painters each day and most were attentive to the job and some were not. Painting around switch plates rather than removing them??A section of the kitchen wall was not painted!? ("sorry it was under a drop cloth"). The real issue however was the outside trim where dripped paint found it's way onto shrubs, screens, Bilco doors and other surfaces. Some painters held a brush in one hand and a cell phone in the other perhaps accounting for the dripped areas. Loose scrapped paint was not cleaned up from the perimeter of the house. |In their defense, Certapro did re-paint our Bilco doors and the section of kitchen wall before they left and I admit that we did not find all areas with dripped paint until after the crew left. |Also, I understand that accidents do happen but breaking three flower pots and not being responsible enough to say "sorry" , or even "oops"? They chose to ignore that it even happened. |Sorry but for the cost I would have expected a little more attention to detail from ALL painters in Certaro's crew.

Response from CertaPro Painters® of East Islip
[Removed member name], Thanks for your comments, we sincerely do value them. I am sorry you feel the way you do and rated us as such. Every time we spoke (on phone or at your home during walkarounds) you mentioned you were very happy with our overall work, which is why you hired us again. When you informed me about the missed spot inside I apologized and fixed it. Switch plate covers should always be removed, they were not in all instances, and that is unacceptable to me which I related to you. There is no excuse for that. I did not make it back there for the last hours of the exterior work. Some tiny paint chips are impossible to pick up. If it was more than that and I was informed about it, I would have had my crew go back immediately to rectify. I was informed by my crew supervisor that any touchups were pointed out and taken care of before they left. I was told you were very happy. I apologize for any broken flower pots, again unacceptable, I was not aware of it and will gladly replace for you if you would give me a call. If my crewmembers make a mistake they are instructed to let me know immediately. Touchups, drips etc occasionally do happen (not often) but I pride myself in responding to any customer complaint and fixing it immediately to make sure our custsomers are 100% satisfied. You and [Removed member name] were a pleasure to work for and if you give me a call I would be happy to go touchup/replace anything you need. Again, I appreciate your feedback. Regards, Chris

[removed member's name], Everybody is entitled to their opinion but I have to clear up the actual facts. I missed one phone call of yours when I was away for the weekend. When I did get back to you, you informed me that you decided to paint the exterior of your home and were taking that off the estimate. Fine, it was a budget issue I was told, not a timely issue. You were originally scheduled a day to be painted 2-3 weeks out on the calendar (due to our workload in late May/early June) since we weren't available immediately. You OK'd that start date window. You obviously found another painter to do the work cheaper. I was never told our agreed upon start date was a problem, It was obviously more about budget. Fine. But I found out about this the Friday before our agreed upon Monday start date when I called you to confirm our start for the interior work. Very unprofessional on your part. If you found somebody cheaper (you always can) please give me the courtesy of a phone call so I can schedule another customers work instead. To me, In a nutshell, you agreed to have us work for you. We agreed on a tight start date window.I didnt even take a deposit. You found somebody to do the work cheaper in the interim and I found out when I called you to confirm our start date. I don't see what we did wrong. I wish you luck and I have no hard feelings. Regards, Chris

We were very pleased with our interaction with Chris Rentz and his team of five painters. Chris was very thorough and detailed with his estimate and explained what would be included in each room. The workers were friendly, professional and competent. Chris was on hand on the first day and was reachable if we had questions or concerns. Darien, the foreman, was very easy to communicate with and handled any of our concerns immediately. We anticipated that the project would take up to four days. The job was completed in three days.
Description of Work: Team of five painters prepped and painted Kitchen, dining room, entryway, first floor hallway, 2nd floor hallway, master bedroom, master bathroom and basement. Trim in living room was also painted. Walls, trim, doors & ceilings were included.

They were very good and I was very happy with them. The price was a little high but the guys were here for a full day so it wound up being a fair price. I didn't know that much was involved. They were very neat and did everything to my specs.
Description of Work: They stained two sheds that had to be done with a power thing.

At their recommendation, I scrubbed the doors, frames, and sills before they got here. We had a few postponements due to wet weather, but everything went well once we had a dry spell. They arrived just after 1 pm and finished up by 4. The doors look great.

Terrific! We had an outstanding experience from the beginning through to the completion of the project. Chris the President spent about an hour and a half quoting the job. We met with other contractors, and overall Chris provided us the most detailed, and specific quote and their pricing was right on point. After scheduling the work, Chris and I were in regular contact at about the time the job was scheduled to begin. The work was delayed slightly due to several days of rain, but at no fault of CertaPro. After confirming the forecast, Chris gave us a new start date and the work commenced as expected. The first day was a whole house power wash. On the second day, Tony called me while he was at the paint store to verify I was clear on the new color, since I had mentioned gray, but the color was actually brown. I gave Tony the green light. After getting to the house, Tony rolled the new color onto part of the house and asked me to come see the new color to be 100% sure it was what we wanted. Although it was such a stark difference to the original color (white), it matched the picture we had perfectly so I said to go ahead. For the remaining 4 full days, Tony, Willie, and Monty (I hope my spelling is right!), worked non-stop, taping, rolling, and spraying the paint. We used 4 colors total, going from a white house with black and forest green trim, to a brown house with cream, oxblood, and black cherry trim. Tony pointed out all areas of concern at the beginning, and I made some alternate arrangements to address those issues swiftly. Windows that had originally looked bad now look fantastic. Overall, Chris and his crew were detail oriented, dependable, in constant communication, and flexible. I really enjoyed working with them and my wife and I are very happy with the experience and finished product. In fact, at this point seven neighbors have stopped in passing over the last four days to compliment us and Chris's team on how nice the house looks. I wouldn't hesitate to call them again.
Description of Work: Whole house power wash. Whole house exterior paint job over aluminum siding, including multiple color changes. All trim work, soffits, windows, and doors were repainted with several coats.

CertaPro Painters of East Islip was great from start to finish. Chris was very professional and ALWAYS answered my calls. My first time dealing with CertaPro Painters of East Islip, I hired them to powerwash my home, patio and fence. It went perfectly and everything looked brand new again. The crew was polite and clean. I had Chris back to paint a few rooms in my home and hired them again. The crew was courteous and clean. They showed up on time and did a wonderful job. My den, kitchen and dining room look beautiful. I would and will hire CertaPro Painters of East Islip again.

Mr. Chris Rentz and his crew were the most professionals that we have ever experienced.He came to give us an estimate and we were stunted from his professionalism and explanation of the way that the painting project would go.He explained every detail and paints that we should use for the best outcome of the project.His crew was on time and very very clean.That job went very very well and it was done on time as promised.We were very happy with the job and we have a painter that we can trust and use in the future. His company is highly recommended. Thank you Certapro. Chris and Michelle Bonkov
