CertaPro Painters® of Central PA

Did all work in 2 days with 3 men and did good work. Gave everything 2 coats and 2 rooms 3 coats to cover the darker paint in those rooms.Never thought it'd be done in 2 days.

Jason was very professional and I was very pleased with the results.

They arrived early. They worked every day with hardly a lunch break. Everyone on the crew was was delightful and pleasant and professional and talented. They finished 2 days earlier than expected. They made sure that when they left the house we had an adequate place to sleep and to function. They put everything back together at the end of the job. They removed all debris. I have never had a better experience with any home improvement project. I looked into 3 painters from Angle's List for this project. I didn't choose the cheapest. I chose the best. I wouldn't hesitate to reccommend this company to anyone who wants a quality performance.

Hopefully this is just a isolated issue.

This is by far the worst company I have ever hired to do work on my house. They left the property each night a mess. Ladders up against the house sprayers uncovered and out for anyone to fall over. . They had different people on the job each time , staining my house and it is my guess that only the foreman had experience staining a house. The employees that power washed the house did a terrible job. I have vertical siding and the sprayed from left to right leaving marks in the wood siding that they tried to later fix , but is still visible. To stain my house, they started using a sprayer, then a brush, then whatever tool they could find to stain my home. It was a comedy of errors. It took a few weeks to complete. They were not finished the last job before they started my job and then went back to many times to finish the other job not working on my house for days. I write this one year later and there are parts of the house that look like it was not stained last year, but maybe a few years ago. Most likely because some parts of the house was not stained using the same techniques as the others. Please , please shop around. ,

Very happy with the end result. Thank you.

Outstanding company!

Initiation of job was delayed until rainy weather was past (understandable). Once job was begun, 2-3 workers were on site each day (during the hottest week of the year - upper 90's every day) from Sunday till Friday. Because of the heat they sprayed the paint and only brushed for touch-ups. The lead painter did all the spraying and although there was some overspray it was all cleaned up. Painters certainly knew what they were doing and the job turned out great. Actually they did miss the side of one downspout but it was easier for me to just paint it than even bother them. Would use them again.

I only got one other estimate and it was considerably higher than this company. The price was higher than I expected. The individual that came to my home from this company was very professional, personable, and was a pleasure to meet.

The price was competitive. .They were easy to work with regarding the estimate. I was flexible with the start date so they could come when I assumed they had time to complete. I understood that it was a job that was based on the weather and there were days when it rained, But there were lots of hot dry days. The employees that came to power wash the house obviously had no idea how to do the job. Vertical siding, they went from left to right. You could clearly see where they cleaned the wood and where they missed. Like they were trying yo kill a bee with the power washer.! So when they stained the wood , the clean and unclean wood was not covered by the semi transparent stain. . It still shows. They tried to fix, but it is still obvious. My biggest complaint is that they had one man assigned to my job. A 3 story home. One or two days a helper came, but thiis was done mainly by one man. I assumed they had other jobs that they were trying to complete. Each day I came home to ladders laid against for days my house, tools left on the ground, , tarps everywhere., pretty messy. No clean up. The only worker - Dan, was a hard worker, coming on Sat and Sunday to try to complete the job . I am not sure why he was not given some help . I guess I expected that they would be a few more workers on the job and that it would not take about 1-2 weeks and they would do a nice job. On a scale of 1-10 I would give the completed job a 6 . They started on July 22 and finished on Aug 12. I was just glad to have them complete the job and leave. I would not hire them again.

The house was painted poorly and the promised to come back and I should mark the walls. Plus he put a flat paint on my stairs when it was obvious it should have been a semi-gloss. They came back it was during the flood in the area and the painter called and asked could he leave and get his child and promised he would come back. He never came back and I was dissatisfied. The main office called and they were going to get back with me and never did. I have paint on my light plates some were removed and placed in the wrong place. He got paint drips on my door which he did not paint. He left spots on the wall and thickness on door trims. Very poorly done. Paint was on the bathroom mirror and on floor. I invited them to come to my house and check the work that was done and no one ever came or looked at the poor work. They were suppose to send a crew as I have an open floor plan with high ceilings and be done in the max 3 days. It stretched into a week and then had to come back to fix the errors. He was far from a professional painter. I was and still am very disappointed I fixed some of the errors but was still hoping against hope someone would come. I would never use them again nor would I recommend them. BAD HORRIBLE WORK.

From the time Glenn gave his estimate we knew we selected the right painters for the job. He was very thorough in giving our estimate of a very large area that included the kitchen, dining room and family room and was patient while I labored over my color choices. He even shared that the color I chose was one he used in his home which made me feel at ease that I had made a good choice! His team of two men were prompt and courteous. They worked well around our schedule of needing to attend to the needs of our young child. Overall we were extremely pleased with the services we were provided!

The painting was completed by Tom Walton and his team. Many thanks to Tom and John who were the main painters but also supported on different days by Larry, Kim, Brian, and Darry. Tom , John and the guys did a great job and were friendly, polite and respectful of our home. All requests were immediately addressed and never one time were than any debates about something being right or wrong. The guys kept themselves busy and cleaned up daily behind themselves. These guys did a great job and were a pleasure to work with. I would recommend their work to all.

Early review in the event you are looking for a painter. My project is not scheduled until 3/11/13 so actual work has not yet been completed. Certa Pro was one of companies to respond and provide estimates based on my request. I worked with CertaPro rep Alex, who is very friendly, respectful and professional. He provided a very thorough and detailed estimate within one 1 day and was able to provide a estimated quote on site prior to my receiving detailed analysis. After meeting with 4 companies we were slightly confused and undecided. I asked Alex to revisit our house and clarify some things. He was more than agreeable and returned to the house with owner of his branch. Both very professional and efficient. Alex was also the only one to leave color samples with us. CertaPro also has scheduled a 1hr appointment for us with a color consultant. This has been a very positive experience so far and I will update this review after project completion. Bill J

It went very well. They arrived on time the first day, went over what needed to be done with me, got the paints taht were required and very very professional yet easy going. I had no porblems with them.

I recommend CertaPro Painters to many of my clients. Since they are one of the first sub-contractors that my clients see when we are pulling together their homes decorating project I depend on the CertaPro team to represent me in a professional manner. I?ll often ask for feedback from my clients to be sure that they are pleased with the job. I always get great reviews and will continue to recommend Glenn and CertaPro Painters.
