Description of Work: I have used Certa Pro of the Main Line on multiple occasions over the past 10 years. They have consistently provided prompt clean efficient service at more than market competitive pricing. They also have stood behind there work. On one occasion redoing a kitchen ceiling, which was not their fault, two years after the initial job at no charge. They are outstanding!

I will say that the painters were prompt and timely. Also, the individuals who actually painted were nice. I was surprised that the job only took two days and in retrospect I understand why. They did a very quick, not thorough, job. In each area they failed to perform basic repair work on walls even though that was agreed upon. They even failed to paint the side of the bathroom window facing the wall (maybe they thought I wouldn't notice). The owner did come out to inspect the work and agreed to make changes; however, he never followed up on scheduling these repairs after the first date did not work for me. If he had followed up and the repairs had actually been made, I probably would have given a bit of a higher rating. I was lured in by a lower quote but I got what I paid for.
Description of Work: Painted the trim, doors, and ceilings in three bedrooms, one bathroom, and hallway. Also painted the walls in hallway.

I am dismayed that the member was not satisfied with our work, and the correctoins were not made. After our meeting I did make 4 attempts to contact the member (and my crew chief made 2) and we did not get a return email or phone call. I am still more then happy to make these corrections - I did agree with the member that at least 5 specific areas need to be corrected. Please call my cell at 215-783-8118 to resolve. We take a lot of pride in our work, and our service. I will also note that we have a third party company that contacts ALL clients when the jobs are complete by email and by phone and I see in the notes that their phone call was not returned as well.

The stimator was prompt and capable and provided an estimate within 6 hours via email. the paintres were prompt, meticulous and helpful. I had asked for basic white walls, but the painter suggsted adding a tint - I left it to his professional opinion - and it came out great.

The room is beautiful. They did an excellent job! They were professional from start to finish. It was better than I expected. I used their color consultant and she was right on..... And the price was very competitive.
Description of Work: My dining room had a two layers of wall paper that had to have been there for over 20 years. The CertaPro team (two men) came in removed everything. The walls were sanded. They used an oil based primer to make sure the new paint sealed well. There was more to take off than originally seen in the estimate. This cost an extra $150.00. The room was sealed off and everything covered. They did a great job cleaning up at the end of the day and at the job.

Estimator was on time, professional, and an estimate was quickly given, breaking out the components of the job. Company flexible and accommodating to our schedule. Walls were inspected for preparation, although minimal preparation was necessary because this is a new building. Painters arrived on schedule, although they had to get some supplies. The team was competent, very polite, and hardworking. They moved some furniture, covered floors, and did a very nice job. The job was completed in three days.
Description of Work: Painted accent walls in living room and dining room, painted walls in foyer, first floor alcove, and in staircase from first to second floor.

I WAS ABLE TO FIND THE MEMBER'S REQUEST FOR AN ESTIMATE ON 8/22, BUT NO SUBSEQUENT REQUESTS. I SEE A NOTE MY OFFICE MANAGER MADE THAT SHE LEFT A MESSAGE WITH THE MEMBER EXPLAINING THAT OUR FRANCHISE DOES NOT DO WORK IN GERMANTOWN (WE TRY TO KEEP OUR WORK BETWEEN BALA CYNWYD AND NEWTOWN SQUARE TO ENSURE THE BEST SERVICE). WE MAY HAVE A FRANCHISE IN THE FUTURE THAT COVERS THAT AREA.

Chris was great, although we only saw him for the initial estimate. Work was subcontracted out to very proficient team that worked through the weekend to finish my home and did a fantastic job. My one gripe was subcontractors - if I knew them, I would have used them directly, since they were great. I get the feeling I may have paid too much and have slight reservations recommending CertaPro.
Description of Work: Repaired, prepped and painted living room, dining room, hallway and three bedrooms. Dining room and living room walls required extensive prep and did not include the ceiling.

I AM GLAD THAT THE MEMBER WAS EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH OUR WORK. AMONGST THE BETTER PAINTING CONTRACTORS ON THE MAIN LINE, WE ARE OFTEN CONSIDERED VERY REASONABLE IN OUR PRICING. WE HAVE WON "BEST PAINTING COMPANY ON THE MAIN LINE" 2 YEARS RUNNING BY MAIN LINE LIFE. THE VAST MAJORITY OF OUR WORK IS COMPLETED BY OUR HIGHLY TRAINED EMPLOYEES THAT HAVE BEEN WITH US FOR ON AVERAGE 8 YEARS. IN THIS SITUATION (WHICH WAS FAIRLY UNIQUE IN THAT THE JOB WAS PREFERRED TO BE STARTED WITHIN 3 DAYS OF OUR APPOINTMENT) I CONTRACTED WITH A GREAT FRIEND OF MINE THAT OWNS HIS OWN BUSINESS. VIVALDO AND HIS CREW WERE PAST EMPLOYEES OF MINE THAT I HELPED GET STARTED IN THEIR OWN BUSINESS AND STILL USE OCCASIONALLY. WHILE IT IS TRUE THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE YOU CAN SAVE MONEY BY GOING WITH A SMALL UP-AND-COMING PAINTING COMPANY, THE VAST MAJORITY OF THESE COMPANIES DO NOT LAST (USE AN OLD YELLOW PAGES AS YOUR GUIDE, 80%+ OF COMPANIES IN THE BOOK 10 YEARS AGO NO LONGER EXIST). AS THE INDUSTRY STANDARD, WE HAVE SYSTEMS IN PLACE THAT ENSURE THAT NEARLY ALL OF OUR CLIENTS ARE HAPPY WITH OUR SERVICE (98% SURVEYED IN THE LAST 4 YEARS WOULD RECOMMEND US).

We had the opportunity to use their home decorator. She was right on the mark with colors. And will be hiring them again.

Chris arrived on time for the estimate, and we received it in the mail within two days. We only used another company because Certapro wasn't able to start for three or four weeks and the other contractor could start immediately. To their credit, Certapro offered to lower their price, but couldn't start any sooner.
Description of Work: The estimate was to remove wallpaper and paint in four bedrooms, the family room, living room, dining room, kitchen, hall, bath and kitchen cabinets. The job awarded was to another company who was able to complete it sooner.
