Description of Work: The correct answer to whether I would use this provider in the future should be "Maybe." I've used CertaPro in the past when the territory belonged to a different franchise owner, and was absolutly pleased with original and follow-on work. But sometime in last couple years, ownership changed and so did their communications. This work was originally scheduled for March than rescheduled to April 17, than delayed again to April 24. Work on April 24 was reconfirmed Monday April 20, and I was provided a time to expect the crew early in the morning of 4/24. When they did not show, an additional inquiry discovered that that they wouldn't be able to do the work until 4/27! I was purposely home on 4/24 for the work and couldn't take off again on the 27th. The owner called and appologized for the communication breakdown and indicated other work delays resulted in my work being delayed. That day I found another contractor who could do the work the following Friday at a lower cost and canceled CertaPro. Perhaps when CertaPro is slower (winter, interior work) or if the project is larger, shedules would hold better.

Response from CertaPro Painters® of Fairfax & Prince William
We appreciate [Member name removed]'s feedback. Although we tried to overcome several scheduling challenges, we ultimately made it too difficult for [Member name removed] and failed to meet his scheduling expectation. Even though there were multiple factors that contributed, as I shared with [Member name removed], his work was delayed and he was inconvenienced. For that reason, I would give our team an “F” and have sincerely apologized to [Member name removed]. Ultimately, I am responsible for our production scheduling and any related problems. When your next project arrives, I hope that you'll give our team another opportunity to earn your trust and deliver the results and service you expect. Thank you. Sincerely, Dave Forman

Description of Work: We had the entire inside of the house painted. This included: 3 bedrooms to include ceilings, 2.5 bathrooms including ceilings, removed wallpaper in upstairs landing area, repaired walls and painted. First floor: kitchen, family room, living room and dining room all painted and include ceilings. All nail pops, dents and other prep work was completed prior to painting. Outside: cleaned all siding, shutters, prepped areas, caulked and then painted entire house. The estimate was very detailed to include all specifics to be done and a complete timeframe to include plan with completion estimates. The crew was extremely punctual and reviewed what was done each day and the plan for the next day. It was a wonderful experience and would not hesitate to recommend the entire group to anyone to use. It was a pleasure to come home each day and see the progress that had been made. The crew leader checked in every morning and we reviewed each evening what had been done each to ensure the completed work met our expectations. The entire project went according to plan as it was outlined in our estimate process.

We had several projects done after moving into a large 12-year-old home. We started with painting our kitchen and entry/upstairs hallways and they did a great job - it was done quickly, professionally, and attention to detail. They did such a great job, that we later had them come back to do our basement, as well as our exterior trim and clean and stain our back deck. The owner, Dave, has been very helpful and professional and all of his workers were friendly and respectful. I would definitely recommend them!
Description of Work: Painting our large kitchen, two-story entry and upstairs hallway, large basement, and then our outside trim and stain our deck. They covered the furniture and floors, prepped the walls ahead, then used two coats to cover. They arrived on time every morning and left about the same time each day, completely cleaning up after themselves every day.

They did a great job and I was very happy with them. I would recommend them for sure. They are very professional and told me about the mortar problem they found; they did not smear over it and did not delay my job at all while they repaired the mortar. Their pricing is about in the middle, but if you take the price compared to the quality of the job I got I was very satisfied; but they were not the cheapest one that quoted. They are busy but they told me a date that was about a month out and they were there within two or three days of the projected day.
Description of Work: I used CertaPro Painters to paint the exterior of my house. They also repaired some mortar between bricks on my house before painting.

When I moved into my new home, movers damaged beautiful chair railing and staircase railing trying to get furniture in the door. Some painters just can't do good wood sanding and repair of gouged wood molding. These guys did an excellent job! It was just not recommended to replace my stair railing system and chair molding trim due to these scuffs. Repaint of walls because of scuffs was matched perfectly and the wood filling was done well also. Look at the overall quality of the job from start to finish, if it's just simple painting and you can do it yourself then don't hire a professional, but if you want a professional job done you will be pleased with the result commensurate with the true cost of quality work. They are very reasonable.

Overall I give them an A for the professionalism and speed on getting the job done.
Description of Work: I had approximately 18 (9 pairs) painted to match the door I had replaced several years ago. The painter was very professional, he had an array of swatches and together we picked the color that matched the door as closely as possible. He painted all the shutters alone and was very neat in the project.

Everything turned out fine. The company who made the mistake paid for the service. However, I would probably not use them again because of the price of the service.

I am in the process of selling my home and I wanted to due some maintainance prior to putting it on the market. I had used Mr Rollins services earlier this year to redecorate my family room and was extremely pleased with the cost and results. Once again I was not dissapointed. The staff at Certapro are polite, competent and highly skilled... I would not hesitate to refer them for any and all painting, papering or home repair that you may have. Truly a five star company*****

They are top rated on Angie's List. I had to call them five or six times. They finally emaild me the estimate. It is not real clear and I have to call them to clear it up. There are things on the estimate that he wants me to do like cover the landscaping and remove the shutters. There are sixty something shutters that are like forty feet off the ground. The price was about $4500 and all we want done is the trim, shutters, doors and new caulking.

Response from CertaPro Painters® of Fairfax & Prince William
We regret hearing this negative report. Unfortunately, we have no record of ever interacting with this gentleman. While it may take some time to get our detailed written estimate because of our heavy workload, customers are kept informed and notified if there is a delay in getting it to them. We do not ask customers to remove shutters unless we are painting behind them and they want to take them off themselves vs. having to pay for the labor to remove and/or reinstall them. We cover landscaping that needs protection during our work and never ask customers to do this. As the co-owner of the company, I personally do every estimate so there is no one else from CertaPro Painters of Manassas who would have done the estimate. While it is possible that the gentleman did receive an estimate from a CertaPro franchise, it was not CertaPro Painters of Manassas. Consequently, I cannot address the stated price or the job since we were not involved with it. Thank you. Bo Rollins Owner

Description of Work: Have had these folks to paint inside and outside of our home. Both jobs have been very good. When they painted the outside, they first power washed the house then caulked and painted. When they packed up and left I thought they were all done, but that evening I got a call from Mr. Van Lear who told me they were supposed to put two coats of paint on the house. He apologized for remission and the next morning his folks were back and added the second coat. The date is just a guess--I no longer remember the exact date. We will use them again.

We were very pleased with the communication prior to the start of the job. Mr. Van Lear quickly returned my initial call to set up an estimate and once we confirmed the job we received several calls letting us know his current work status and when we could expect his crew to begin . I appreciated not only the company information Mr. Van Lear provided at the time of the estimate but also the fact that he sat down answered all my questions and explained every item on the neatly typed estimate. My husband was home during the whole process and commented several times how impressed he was with the speed and quality of work performed by the work crew. The crew was respectful of our home and left clean work areas every evening. Mr. Van Lear will be our first call for future projects.

I don?t know how much we paid, but I know it was reasonable. They first sent someone to do the estimate, and she was very thorough. The crew came early in the morning on time and they cleaned up every day. They were very polite and thorough. We were quite pleased with the job they did. We get an e-mail from them once a month which is something like magazine. They put the photograph of the current job they are doing and then scrap it. It nice to see that.

They did an excellent job and their price was pretty reasonable. They took off old wall paper, did the borders, filling holes and painted the house for $1800 for the whole house. They did all the work in a day and also did the ceiling.

Job went very well. Richard had done some interior work for us before, so we felt comfortable with him. During the initial estimate he took time to closely inspect the current condition of the floor and asked a lot of questions. We also discussed expectations for how long the new paint should last, so that we could make reasonable decisions about whether to repaint or replace with Trex-type material. He presented a detailed written estimate within a couple of days. Once the job started, it took about 4-5 days (not consecutive), including drying times after washing and priming. Richard came back out and inspected, and made recommendations for using the porch "lightly" until final curing had been completed. He also replaced porch furniture and plants that had been moved -- and even brought out a new planter after a slight driveway "mishap"! (This was above and beyond -- but he insisted.) All in all, the job was done professionally, cost came in at the estimate, and they cleaned up afterwards. The porch floor looks good!

First, they pressure-washed everything they were going to paint. Then they painted. After they were finished, they did an excellent job of cleaning up. Before the guys left, the supervisor walked me around and showed me everything they painted to get my approval.

Incredibly responsive, on-time, polite, cleaned up well, all work explained before and during work. Provided l hour with color consultant once contract signed. Pre-painting meeting with rep before crew came so all on same page as to expectations. Always one English speaking person on location. Did an excellent paint job. Only one minor complaint--did not take hardware off of doors before painting-just taped it. The original estimator even called to tell me he would be 10 minutes late. Crew leader available by cell phone after hours to answer questions. Everyone was just incredibly responsive. Large crew so work completed in 1 l/2 days.
