Description of Work: Interior painting of 2-story home. Sales rep gave estimate but did not include everything..cost me an additional $400. Supervisor ignored my requirements including: (1) Was to set up mixing paint and cleaning up brushes/rollers in backyard NOT front yard. Front yard was newly sodded. Supervisor told his painting asst to set up in the front yard. They moved as I instructed. (2) Supervisor told me he knew how to take down and put back up vertical blinds. When they left, my wife tried to open the blinds and they almost fell on her. The painters merely laid the blinds on top of the mounting bracket and did not reinstall them. (3) I asked the supervisor to remove two toggle bolts in the master bedroom. He not only removed those but instructed his painter to remove ALL the toggle bolts in the house. The Supervisor and his painter removed almost half of the toggle bolts in the house before I managed to stop them. (4) Before the painting began, I told the Supervisor NOT to get paint on the hardware floor. The painters stored their wet paint canvas on the hardware floor, wet paint down. (5) The painters dripped paint on some of the furniture which we did not notice until much later. (6) The painters stacked heavy books on top of the computer printer, the result of which broke the document feeder. After the work was done, I tried to contact the company president. Each time the secretary told me he was either on another call or was in a meeting, but he would call me back. He never did. As far as I am concerned, this company should NOT engage in any work where the owners and furniture are present. It is the poorest example of a professional in this business.

Response from CertaPro Painters® of East Tennessee
We really wish we could upload documents on this site to separate fact from fiction. The $400 "extra's" was exactly that - extra work not on the original contract signed and approved in advance by the customer (document on file). I have no idea on if our guys actually washed out a paint brush in the front or back yard - we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Our contract was for the homeowner to remove and replace the blinds. If we did this it was as a favor because it was not done by the homeowner in advance as agreed. We are sorry for a blind not being replaced correctly. Again, no idea about the 2 toggle bolts. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. We were never made aware of a paint drip on furniture or the document feeder damage. We would have corrected if necessary. The amount on this review is also listed incorrectly - it was actually $7305 total. Lastly we have a signed contract for over 2 years ago the project was completed satisfactorily with no remaining items. I was never contacted about this project and I have never had a customer state that my team did not allow them access to me. If this happened the individual would be reprimanded as our culture is very much about servicing our customers at EVERY level. Lastly the written feedback review the customer completed at the project completion rated us 5/5 in 9 out of 10 categories and the last a 3/5 (document on file). CertaPro is committed to meet and exceed expectations 100% of the time. We accept NO payments until the client is completely satisfied. Jeff Brown/Owner

Description of Work: was promised a crew of 5 or 6 had 2 actual painters and a supervisor who came late took 2 hr lunch hours and left a 3--really felt sorry for the 2 painters who stayed on the job but I did the actual clean up every night to get them out earlier--when I complained I was told that he had some problems and it was ok for him to leave--also we ordered Moores high gloss paint for the trim and I happened to see a can of Sherwin williams paint that he was using--we had the contract that showed what we ordered but they called in someone else to tell us we were wrong. We had several of the companies employees in here actually screaming at us and I keep telling them to leave--they wanted (after I had paid them 7000.00) for a terrible job--ask for a additional 180.00 for fixing nail pops! I told them I worked the night of my birthday cleaning up all the paint drips all over the house--the owners comments was we should have called for help--wasn't that his job as owner to make sure the job was done right? All the blame was placed on us and what we got was a terrible paint job, the job was not done the way we were promised and I would not wanted anyone to go through what we did, I need more painting done but we are afraid to let anyone into our home again |

Unfortunately this homeowner is confused and I wish we were able to download documents on this site to prove that. The painting was not performed in 2011 as customer states. It was completed in September of 2008 (6 years ago). We have a signed contract stating that the homeowner examined and inspected the job as complete. Our policy is to accept no payments until the homeowner is satisfied and we are 100% completed. I also have pulled the receipts from our old records and ALL products were purchased from Benjamin Moore and colors & sheens matched as outlined in the contract. There is a note in the file stating that after the job was complete the homeowners did contact us for some clean up issue's and the file notes further indicate we quickly responded and cleaned up the areas. Our team works very hard every day in an attempt to satisfy every customer in every way! We strive for continuous improvement every day. We are sorry this homeowner felt we failed to live up to our goals. The information we have on file via email from the customer states the painting was very good and the cleanup left some to be desired. We will use this experience from 6 years ago as a training tool. We also hope you will continue to review the thousands of reviews from satisfied customer and we will work hard to improve! Jeff Brown/Owner

Description of Work: I had used this company for exterior painting and been pleased. The estimate for replacing the wallpaper in two small bathrooms was $1350, with the caveat that it may be higher depending on how difficult the paper was to remove. That was more than I wanted to spend and chose to do the work myself.

THIS WAS A "BALLPARK" ESTIMATE TO REMOVE, RESURFACE AND HANG NEW WALLPAPER IN TWO BATHROOMS. BATHROOMS ARE MORE DIFFICULT TO PERFORM WORK LIKE THIS THAN MORE OPEN ROOMS. WE ATTEMPT TO "BALLPARK" ON THE HIGH SIDE IN AN ATTEMPT TO NOT HAVE FINANCIAL "SURPRISES". THIS WORK WAS NOT EVEN PERFORMED BY US!!
