CUSTOMER BEWARE: There are no negative reviews on google…read morebecause they bribe customers into removing their negative reviews by offering money off. They wouldn't have this high of a rating - and I definitely wouldn't have hired them if the reviews were a reflection of what it is like to actually work with this company. It's been an over a month and they are still calling me to try to bully me into removing my review. I had to block them. Update 5.24.26 - our deck is peeling and needs to be completely redone. Hiring this company was one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made as a homeowner. They didn't show up when they said they would -- multiple times. Not only did they fail to arrive as promised, they also didn't bother to call and let me know. I rearranged my schedule and even took two full days off work so I could be home for them to complete tasks that required my presence, and they didn't even do the work. That alone shows a complete lack of respect for their customers' time. When they finally did show up, the quality of the work was horrendous. Instead of taking the time to tape off or remove hardware from our deck, they just painted right over it. They left paint on my windows, killed plants, and left overspray on multiple surfaces that should never have been touched. To make matters worse, the product they used on the deck allows the natural knots in the wood to bleed through, leaving the finished result looking blotchy, unfinished, and downright atrocious. I've had to call them back several times to fix sloppy mistakes, yet issues still aren't resolved. Their crews clearly rush, cut corners, and show no pride in their work. Customer service has been dismissive, unprofessional, and completely unwilling to take real responsibility. After all of this, their idea of compensation was a measly $200 credit for the damage and disruption -- an insulting gesture compared to the cost, stress, and time I've lost. This company lacks professionalism, accountability, and basic respect for customers. If you value your time, your property, and your sanity, do yourself a favor and avoid this company at all costs.

I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy…read more We decided to go with Ellison because we had a large job and the salesperson, Marc, seemed professional. However, when it came time to do our job, it was a different story. We were assigned a crew led by Tony, who apparently had never worked with Ellison before. The first day, Tony told us if we had any issues we should speak with him first and not contact Ellison. This was our first red flag. Over the next few days, we learned that the crew included the 14 year-old daughter of one of the painters and several other family members and when we mentioned this to Tony, he responded with something like, I was wondering why there were so many people here, but I can't complain about free labor. We voiced our concerns with Allison, our project manager from Ellison, but she said she had faith in the crew and to give them a chance. Our job was estimated to take 4-5 days, but after day 3, they hadn't completed the prep work and the quality of work was unacceptable. Screw pops had not been repaired at all, there were holes in the wall that had been painted over with no patching, trim work was splotchy and there were brush strokes everywhere. It was definitely not what we expected given the price we were paying for the work and the promise of "professional painters." At this point, we contacted Allison again and asked her to come inspect the job. She arrived the next morning and decided to send the crew home indicating that we would have to get another crew. We were unhappy with that option because we had stressed the importance of the job being completed on schedule since we were having people over the following weekend. The new crew began the following Monday and it ultimately took them 6 additional days to complete the job. The quality of their work was better, but due to the rushed nature of the rework, there were still plenty of areas that needed to be redone including baseboards that were not painted to the floor, holes that needed to be patched and sanded, light fixtures with paint on them and sloppy work in a bathroom that has since began to peel because it was not primed properly. In addition to all of this, the paint crew got droplets of paint all over our new wood floors, damaged a kitchen barstool, and made a 12" scratch in our floor. Ellison offered us a discount and hired a floor cleaner to try and make the situation right, but ultimately, they could not remove the paint from the cracks in the floors. We decided to pay the discounted bill because we were exhausted with the whole process and just wanted to be done with this horrific experience, but I would never work with them again or recommend them to anyone. The process was extremely frustrating and it's clear that Ellison is a marketing company that subtracts all of their painters. Though they attempted to solve our issues with customer service, it was too little to make up for the unprofessional paint job and shoddy work. Ellison is certainly not worth their premium price tag. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere for painters. All photos are after they attempted to fix our concerns

CertaPro Troy--Much More Than 5 Stars…read more Recently I solicited bids from 6 painting companies for an estimate to remove kitchen wallpaper and then paint walls, ceiling, trim and all cabinets. CertaPro of Troy won the bid by price and primarily how well we thought the company would complete the job. Their work was more than outstanding from start to finish including clean-up. In addition, they completed the job sooner than expected. By the 3rd day of the project we had a great looking kitchen. CertaPro of Troy has our highest recommendation. When we have another painting job, we would have CertaPro do the job for us. One other comment: the people at CertaPro from the owners, painters and staff were responsive and professional throughout the process. They were "easy to do business with."

After interviewing several painting companies, both large and small, we were not only extremely impressed, but so was our management company and every owner within our community. CertaPro recently painted our garage doors, air conditioning gates, front doors, and frames, and we have received nothing but overwhelmingly positive feedback from every single owner. Their attention to detail is remarkable, and the crew was consistently kind, respectful, and professional. In fact, we did not hear a single negative comment about their work. We were so pleased that we have already hired them to paint the rest of our common areas, including balconies and railings for each unit. Their quality of work has been outstanding, and I would highly recommend CertaPro to anyone looking for top-notch painters. They don't just get a 10 out of 10--they get 100+ on our scale! Thank you, CertaPro, for an exceptional job. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Piper President of ESSI

We were given recommendations to have Alex come out and give us a quote and explanation of what he would provide to complete the job to our satisfaction.

It was those things that makes Advantage Painting & Drywall an A++++ company to work with.
