They were on time, very fair priced and they did a great job.
Owner Tom Potts was very responsive to my questions and kept in touch all along the way. He offered helpful suggestions and his two man crew, Fernando and Jose' were top of the line. I couldn't be more pleased and have since asked and received a proposal to paint the outside of our home in the very near future.

When I returned after the painters had been in my home for the first day, I found all my can lights had overspray in them, there were gaps at connections to other materials (woodwork, etc.), and there were paint drips on my travertine tile, and built in bookcases. When the crew returned in the morning I asked if they considered the room finished as they had pulled plastic, tape, etc. and had moved to another area. And yes, it was supposed to be finished. The lead painter seemed rather offended when I pointed out the problems. His resolution, to repaint the insides of the cans black, was done very sloppy too. He was obviously irritated when I kept asking him to retouch them so they would have a straight edge, instead of wiggly lines.
I then made the assumption that since I had talked to the lead painter about issues after the first day, the rest of the rooms would be attended to more carefully. Unfortunately an incorrect assumption on my part. The same sloppy painting ensued. Also, small nail holes and drywall flaws that I pointed our to Lisa Jensen and the lead painter before the project began, and that were clearly marked with blue painters tape, were just painted over. As the project went on over a series of days, I felt that I had to critically inspect everything, which made me very irritated. And the lead painter became increasingly irritated with me for pointing things out. It was not a good situation. Although this issue existed throughout the house, one area that was particularly bad was on the drywall around my new stone fireplace. It was very nicked up by the mason. When I put blue tape on this area for patching, they should have told me that they needed the contractor to smooth the drywall more before they paint. Instead they just removed the tape, painted the area without patching it, and even painted over my chrome gas fireplace control. Then when I asked them about patching they said, this is beyond their scope. Would have been nice to know when I did the walk thru before painting started!
I had to leave town before the project was completed but was assured that everything would be taken care of while I was gone and I should come home to a completely finished house. When I returned, I was not happy! I marked all the problems with blue tape and Lisa Jensen did a final walk thru with me. As I showed her each problem she said, "no need for explanation, that is obvious". (unpainted rings around each towel bar, doorbell, gaps at baseboards, etc., etc.) If it was so obvious, why didn't her painters take care of it the first time? Why did I have to continually inspect in order to get quality work?
Lisa did make sure that her workers resolved everything to my satisfaction, but it was a very painful process.
One other note, aside from sloppy painting, the workers did not treat my home with respect. My powder room looked and smelled like a truck stop bathroom. It reeked of urine with misses on and around the toilet. Uck!!!
"CertaPro Painters is committed to offering exceptional painting services. Our quality scores as a whole are outstanding. We are very sorry that your experience did not meet your or our expectations. I agree with you, that the comment from your general contractor is not true. You can most certainly find excellent painters in Phoenix, the same as in any other city. I apologize for the number of touch ups that were necessary for my painters to do and for the inconvience this caused. I would like to point out that CertaPro had nothing to do with the texture repairs around your new fireplace, those were done by a different company. But asside from that, I hear and understand your concerns and thank you for bringing them to our attention."
