CertaPro Painters of Albuquerque, NM

The previous owners of our home smoked. I tried to remove the yellow, orange, brown stains from the ceilings. CertaPro removed all the recessed, lighting speakers, trim, and exhaust fans when they repainted the ceilings. The trim speakers and lighting no longer stick out like a sore thumb. Everything is one color, white and clean and fresh looking.

I am a born DIY person and a bit of a perfectionist. These guys are the first painters I have ever trusted to paint my house. To say i was leery is an understatement. At the end of every day I inspected their work and every thing I could nit pick they addressed the next morning before I could even say anything. They do great work, they are professional in how they do their work, and they do it as you would do it yourself if you had the time and expertise. Oh, and they are incredibly fast. 3.5 days to complete the house, detached garage, and stucco wall. A large job done right and fast.

Had exterior stucco sealed and coated with elastometric paint and all outside trim painted. A team of three painters worked a full week on the job. They were all very friendly, respectful, and competent. I am very satisfied with the work they did. I can honestly say this crew was the best contractor crew I have ever had. They really do deserve five stars!

We were very pleased with the quality of work that was done. However, we HATE the color. It’s hard to spend that kind of money and end up hating the final color. Yes, we looked at two almost identical shades of the same color that were sampled on the wall. Surprisingly, it was immediately clear that we were not even close to what we wanted. But, it was also clear that the clock was ticking and that taking the time to re-select the correct color would put us behind schedule, and the wind was due any minute, and it would dry darker, etc… The work performed was very well done. Brian did a great job of taping and Patrick was a delight to work with. If Certa Pro wants a resounding endorsement, we will be happy to shout it from the rooftops when they come back and re-paint with the right color, not the expedient color. One more observation about color. In our case, CertaPro offered no discussion about color selection until we inquired about when, where, how to select a color (Sherwin Williams). If this is most customers’ experience, you will need to initiate this topic early in the project process.
