    AFTER
    Karen D.

    This job was complicated by the fact we were replacing most of the original wood siding on our 100-year-old house in Whitefish Bay with LP SmartSide. We wanted to preserve the home's character by keeping the original wood facia/trim, wood framing of the enclosed front and back porches and front bump-out windows framing. This required us to hire two separate contractors, working in tandem. CertaPro painted the wood that we kept, and Ridge Top Exteriors did the siding. We're thrilled with the way it turned out, and would certainly recommend CertaPro for similarly tailored projects. Communication was challenging at times. But we kept things positive, worked at it, and the company demonstrated integrity with fair pricing. Shoutout to sales associate Carey Yelton, GM Dan Schulist, and project manager Andres.

    After a couple of days I received a comment from the owner asking me to contact him. I waited a few days before reaching out but was unable to speak with him. My call was instead handled by a man named Joe. He was very pleasant and apologised for what happened. I explained the entire situation but I was not willing to allow them to come back into my home. I even told them how the sales person said they would send a restaurant gift but had not. Joe said he would follow up on that and with the owner and that the owner would follow up with me. Well no gift card and no follow up. Talk is cheap.

    Certa Pro painted my block, commercial building and made the entire process wonderful. Communication was consistent and final product was what I expected. It's so nice to work with a company that does what they say they will.

    This is an example of two coats of paint. This was behind my hose cart.

    If I could give a negative number I would. This company is a joke. Their sales associate was all smiles and promises but it ended there. Our crew was pleasant while working. I gave a positive review initially. They finished on a rainy day so I didn't get a chance to properly inspect the job. When I did, WOW! They missed the entire side of the base of my garage. We paid for two coats and they only painted one. They didn't caulk and it took more then 8 visits and it still isn't finished. Started in late June 2014 and there are still spots on my house unpainted as of Oct. 2014. When they returned to caulk my windows they got caulk everywhere; gutters, hose cart, smears on the siding. It is a mess. They didn't use drop cloths and dripped paint on my garage floor, driveway, deck and even got paint on the code box for the garage door and there are smears on the downspouts. Do NOT pay until you inspect completely. There is no professional that honors the conversations that we had over the phone. Our contract listed a high end paint and they switched to a lower quality. They blamed us for the change. This company employs people that do not honor written contracts. I have security camera footage of them painting in the rain. Who paints in the rain? We've contacted the company multiple times. They just don't care. I wish I had hired a local crew with some pride in their work. If you need painting ask your friends who they use and avoid this company completely.

My cedar siding home had not been painted since 2017 and was in dire need of help. They did a days-worth of prep-work scraping and priming and then painted the entire house with a high grade stain(Woodscape) and it looks great. They also did the trim, gutters and downspouts in white. Looks like a new house. Thanks again Two-Day Painting for a wonderful experience. Highly recommended and request Alvero and his team.

    I have been dealing with this nightmare for 1 1/2 years now. I hired Two Day to paint my newly…read morepurchased house in Fall of 2024. They sent clueless subcontractors who spoke no English, and caused extensive damage to my home. Two Day has refused many requests to fix anything unless I pay them in full first - leaving my new home in horrible shape all this time. They used a wood stain(NOT rated for metal, per the MDS) on all the metal downspouts, gutters, and patio door causing immediate and extensive bubbling/peeling of the paint. A proper fix would require everything to be completely striped and redone with a properly rated product, and the labor cost of doing so would be enormous. No other contractors I talked to wanted to touch it and recommended full replacement. My quoted replacement costs for the damaged items is just shy of $25,000! Two Day is now trying to sue me for full payment plus ridiculous fees and interest, while shirking any and all responsibility. It is due to a small clause in the contract that states "All disputes will go through NARI mediation and arbitration" that they have avoided taking any responsibility thus far. What the contract doesn't say, is that going through NARI(National Association Remodeling Industry), which Two Day is a member of, requires a $2000 non-refundable upfront fee! There is no way I was going to hand over an additional $2000 to their questionably 'unbiased' member organization just to get them to fix their mistakes and satisfy the original contract. As I refused to pay the $2000, Two Day and NARI conducted some kind of kangaroo arbitration hearing without me present, refusing to allow any of my evidence of their negligence and damage. The arbitrator only heard Two Day's lies and omissions and ruled in their favor. Don't make the same mistakes I did. Stay FAR away from Two Day Painting, and for that matter anyone whose contract demands that disputes must go through NARI's $2000 Clown Court. ------------------------- Re: Garret's response on April 8th I've never worked with you Garret on this matter. You haven't been out to my house to see the results. But I think the photos paint a pretty clear picture for everyone. The fact that you can't refute any of my points is also very telling for all. Despite the weaselly way you try to reword things and frame them in your favor, it's all essentially just lies by omission. Because you know full well: 1) You used a wood-only stain on the metal parts of my house against manufacturer specifications. Your negligence here is clearly documented. 2) All of your 'generous offers' were contingent on you getting paid in full first. As if I am foolish enough to give up all my leverage and just trust a company that has already demonstrated extreme negligence and damaged my property. 3) I absolutely did NOT ever refuse to participate in the mediation or present evidence. I refused to pay a surprise $2000 non-refundable fee to NARI that was never disclosed in your contract(you REALLY should!) - and because of that I WAS BARRED from showing up and presenting any of my extensive evidence. Why would someone throw away another $2000? When the best possible outcome would be NARI forcing you to send the same terrible workers of questionable legal status back out and hoping for a better outcome this time. Your MO is clear. Promise anything verbally - do everything you can to avoid it being documented in writing. Send the cheapest bargain basement subcontractors to do a rushed job. Then use your warranty to hold over dissatisfied customers heads so they don't complain or leave you bad reviews - because they already paid you in full and they are just hoping you will show some shred of decency and professionalism and maybe fix some things. If you had any at all, you would understand that it is unethical to negligently damage someones house using improper products for the material getting painted and then demand full payment before you will even attempt to fix it. You would understand that it is unethical to just ignore multiple items that were promised in the contract and in writing that objectively and admittedly went unfulfilled - and then demand full payment. As far as me "honoring the court's decision" - you know full well no such decision has been made because the matter has yet to see a courtroom. NARI's one-sided $2000 pay-to-play arbitration hearing is not court. I hope you can reflect on this and do the right thing Garret. I'll offer you the benefit of the doubt since it's possible you were not provided full information by Eric Rauterberg. But if not, let me be clear: You are not going to get away with this

The first job we used him for was to paint the interior of our home just after we'd had the walls opened up to add insulation. He was able to refill the holes, finish, and paint them such that there's absolutely no indication that there was ever 30 holes in our first floor walls (we had no insulation in our 1930s-era home's first-floor walls). His prep work is fantastic. We used him again for painting our exterior. He was able to match the cladding on our new windows and do an excellent job.

Which are all process decisions that they need to revisit, because it likely costs them business if they would do it right. Culvers will not take your job unless it "eats up a full day". Meaning their slots are day slots. I get it - they need to pay people. The way you do that: have HALF-day slots and charge for that. Because you see...Josh himself said, quote, "you'd end up paying double". Which means that if they were to do half-day slots, it would be the viable price that he thinks it should have been...but because they refuse to do that, they basically overcharge you for work. The key with them is that they don't care for any small jobs. Solomon C indicated some trim painting, which I consider a small job, so whatever they've changed is a recent development, likely. Brenda O indicated an issue with coats of paint - everyone with competency knows that a single layer of paint was not going to be sufficient for anything. Conversations with Josh revealed a minimal understanding about color blending, and it's possible I dodged a bullet. Either way, I won't use, consider using or refer them until/unless they're willing to rethink their business model to better accommodate ALL customers without significantly sacrificing profits.

    We were overdue for getting our cracking exterior trim painted, so I reached out to Culver's and…read moreseveral other painters to get quotes. Exterior painting does not come cheap, especially because our house is two stories, and the roof is definitely steep in several areas. Some smaller, highly rated painting companies outright declined to do an estimate as it was late in the season (September) when I started getting quotes, and our house was just too much of a challenge. Fortunately, Culver's was prompt with a response to come out and review the proposed job. They provided an estimate, which was not inclusive of the paint which we had to provide. When compared to the subsequent quotes I received, Culver's came out the most competitive, and I chose to go with them, and I am glad I did. Culver's was able to start the job a couple weeks later and they were able to complete the job in two days. I reviewed all the areas that needed to be painted with them, and the crew was professional and communicative. There was an area I forgot to point out during the estimate. I asked the crew if they would be able to include that (a couple small areas on the ground floor), and they did at no extra charge. They did thorough and excellent work, and I was very pleased with the final product. Culver's is definitely a great choice for painting jobs. They will be at the top of my list should any other painting needs arise!
