Dean, Liz and Jordan were a pleasure to work with and I'm very happy with the results! The whole process was very smooth and professional. They communicated well every step along the way and their painters Luis and Oscar did an excellent job on my condo interior. This was my first time having my first home painted and the work exceeded all of my expectations! I'm so glad I chose CertaPro! It truly feels like my home now! They left all areas very clean after. I feel like I got a great deal for the high quality of the work and I would definitely hire them again. 10/10!!! read more

CertaPro Painters is our go to paint company for my real estate team. They are great about recommending options to fit your budget and they have also worked miracles for us in scheduling around tight timelines to get our listings ready. The work is thorough and I love that they manage the whole project for us. I highly recommend them! read more

Could not have been happier with the work done by CertaPro. I met Liz when I was getting bids for painting the inside of my home. CertaPro came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Not only was the cost for the work very reasonable, but the work itself was exceptional. So, good that I asked them to come back and paint the outside of my home, which they did. Once again, they did an exceptional job for a very reasonable price. Everyone at CertaPro was extremely professional, helpful, kind and always available for questions. The work was done on time and the painting team (who did both the inside and outside work) were extremely courteous, clean, knowledgeable, and made sure to take the extra steps to do the job properly. Could not have asked for more. read more

Loved meeting and working with Liz and Jordan and their team. Incredibly thorough and fast. They painted our retaining wall and backyard patio, and have breathed new life into our home. Thank you! read more

Jordan and Alejandro were terrific at managing the project and ensuring it was done fast and efficiently. The paint job was really good. No hidden fees or upcharges and no paint drips and spots all over the place. The onsite crew were terrific. Showed up on time and left the property nice and clean overnight with no complaints from the tenants. And the price was competitive too. Dean the owner was also terrific to deal with. Highly recommend this business. read more

In a world of unreliable and sloppy performers, CertaPro Painters was a very welcome surprise. They recently painted my house and did a phenomenal job! Prior to the work, I got estimates from almost twenty different painters. CertaPro's estimate came in somewhere in the middle but I was impressed by the diligence of Liz in her follow up texts and decided I wanted a bonded and certified painting company. Both prior to and during the job, Liz and Jordan were on top of it in terms of making sure my needs were met. The work team was thorough and did an absolutely beautiful job on a very challenging house. They left the job site clean, helped me with color and paint choice, and were extremely considerate. I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the market for a painter and will be using them again soon on another project. read more

I highly recommend working with CertaPro Painters! This was my second experience with the company. With the first paint job, I worked with Bob and had a great experience that I knew I wanted to go back to them for the next paint job. This time, I worked with Liz and the quality and service were as superb as I remembered it to be. Liz and her team were communicative and professional the whole time. Additionally, they were very clean the whole time (which I appreciated). I will be definitely be going back to CertaPro for my next paint job! read more

We recieved a few recommendations from friends about Certapro that they did quality work so we gave them a call. My wife and I were very impressed with the whole process and loved the professionalism we experienced. The owners here really care about their customers and they asked many times along the way if we were happy with the work, making sure that we got what we paid for. The added effort goes a long way for me, and I am very happy with the paint team we had. I can see why they are so highly recommended, If you want a company you can trust this is a great company. read more

Liz helped us out on giving us a fair quote on our duplex and we proceeded to use her to paint the outside of the duplex and she sent a professional painter who did a great job. I would use them again to do my project next time. They used quality paint and were patient in helping us find a good color scheme. They completed the project on time and within budget. As of now the paint still looks good after 3 years and i'm sure it will last longer read more

Certapro just finished painting our home and it looks great! The employees were very friendly and accommodating. The work was finished on time and we saw nothing had been missed when we walked the job with Carlos and Marco. The whole thing was a pleasant experience. read more

caught the workers doing silly videos & wasting time and couldn't get the work done on time

After receiving 3 bids on a large scale commercial painting project (booms and lifts required) we selected Certa Pro of Pasadena. The entire team ( Christina, Dean and Robert) were communicative and supportive from start to finish. the job started on time, ended on time, and most importantly, met our very demanding and exacting expectations. The crew of Hong and Waldo were great, quality work, neat, attention to detail was very good. We signed off on the jon with no additonal work or touch up required. Hats off to Certa Pro! read more

Worked with Dean and Liz to complete the exterior paint of my house. They communicated everything very clearly and delivered excellent results as promised. Highly recommended!!! read more

After moving to my new house, I knew I needed to do a good paint job. It's probably been 10 years since the last one. Ive hired a painter once before and went with the cheapest one I could find. The job was a mess, and I wasn't happy with the results at all. This time I knew I wanted a legit paint company who had a good warranty for the piece of mind. I shopped around and got 5 bids and ultimately decided Certapro was the best choice for me, and I found the sales person Liz to be very trustworthy. Not once did I feel pressured or upsold and I really felt like she cared about my concerns. The process of painting was smooth, the paint team was polite and gave updates at the end of every day. The end result came out even better than I expected! If having a company that stands by their work and has a warranty is important to you I wouldn't hesitate to hire certapro. I'll definitely be working with them again in the future. read more

The owners Dean and Liz are truly great people. I have dealt with different contractors and there is no comparison. These guys care so much about doing a good job, and they are consistently checking in making sure you are happy with the whole process. Im so happy I found them, and I will never hire another paint company again. read more

These folks were great on every level--they did what they said they were going to do in a timely manner, and the quality was exceptional. I highly recommend them and will certainly use them again. read more

It was a great experience working with some of the guys over at CertaPro Painters of Pasadena. I was coming down from the bay area to help my family find a business in the LA area for a house paint job and their team was very professional and reasonably priced. I believe the name of the person who helped me was Harold. Thank you Harold! read more

Worked with Dean and Liz as they walked me through the process of our job and the outcome we were looking to achieve. I am very particular and detailed when it comes to work being done, and they absolutely were aligned with our vision from start to finish. I don't go out of my ways to leave reviews but had to here with how well it turned out. Thank you both! read more

1st time customer. Had CertaPro repaint a 2BR/2BA apartment unit. They did a great job. Great prep work. Took care to cover the floor and taped everything. They covered several cracks and repaired some prior water damage on the ceiling as well. Looks brand new again. read more

We highly recommend CertaPro Painters. Their work was professional, their workers were respectful, friendly and trustworthy. We felt comfortable coming and going throughout the project. Our house was in desperate need of repair. The stucco had fallen apart over the years with the sprinklers and rain beating against the structure. CertaPro left it looking better than when we first purchased the house years ago. The house looks brand new. CertaPro kept to their promise. They were detailed orientated and went over the house, fine tuning their work -- going over any missed spots. We can certainly pay money to have work done to our house, but being able to trust strangers with our home and family is quite another issue. We would certainly rely on CertaPro Painters to work on other projects in the future. Our onsite foreman Carlos did a wonderful job and updated us daily at the end of each work day. He handled every small detailed question with alacrity. read more

My point of contact was a millenial named Andrew Bliek, and in retrospect, I was warned when his business card had a photo of him looking like he just rolled out of bed. From the moment I signed the contract, he became rude and unresponsive. Just to list a few examples, he would talk over me, make stupid faces at me, fail to respond to emails/texts, and arrive late despite promises to arrive at "8:30 sharp." On top of that, there was poor communication between him and his coworkers. As a result, there were numerous setbacks. To list just a few examples, my house was painted the wrong color, surfaces were painted without first being primed, surfaces that were not supposed to be painted ended up being painted, and the Porta Potty was delivered a day late. To make up for the setbacks, the unsupervised painters tried to cut corners whenever possible, even failing to tape and cover properly (resulting in a significant amount of paint sprayed on plants and landscaping). When Andrew tried to walk off the job and I threatened to fire CertaPro, the owner Bob Mauser intervened to restore proper customer service. However, the quality of work was still questionable. For example, the attached photo shows a wall without primer on some parts. According to Bob, this is normal. In the end, I just wanted them off my property. I paid for 10 gallons of paint, but only 5 gallons were used. Strangely, when a third of my house was painted the wrong color, they used 4 gallons just for a single coat. There is a 2-year warranty, but the numerous exceptions render it useless. read more

I hired Certapro to paint the interior of my house. Their price was the best out of the other 3 bids I got which I found surprising. I was hesitant initially with the idea of having strangers in my house, but my wife and I felt at ease right away after we met the crew. They did a great job communicating with us and they were proactive about accommodating our dog too. The end result was excellent, and we couldn't be happier with how our rooms turned out. It's crazy how a paint job can make your home feel brand new. I plan to use them for our next project! read more

Before CertaPro painted the building I live in, tenants received a letter from CertaPro stating the hours they would be painting and that they are an EPA certified lead renovation, repair, and painting contractor (our building is old and has lead paint). It also asked that our windows be closed, so they were all closed before the work began. When the paint removal began outside of my kitchen, it was really loud so I peeked in the kitchen. The painter had opened my kitchen window about an inch and there was debris blowing in all over my clean dishes. I don't think the EPA would condone that? We were not informed of their process though, so I tried to not get too upset. In the afternoon, the painters were at my bedroom window and it sounded like someone was fighting with the blinds. I looked in and my jaw dropped. My bedroom window was open at least 1 foot, the painter was hitting the blinds every time he moved, and debris was blowing in. Not only that, but the painter was talking very loudly with others with no mask on during a pandemic in front of my now wide-open window. While I did not hire CertaPro to begin with, I would never recommend them to anyone. The service was so unprofessional and I had no peace of mind until they were gone. read more

Not gonna lie, it started out a little rocky with this company. I called and scheduled an appointment for a quote, and they scheduled me with Scott. Shortly after, I received two text messages from a couple randoms at CertaPro. This was very confusing to me, so I had to call back and ask about it. The receptionist confirmed that the two men were part of Scott's crew. So I'm sure after my conversation with her, they'll be sure not to text the customers, but to just show up at the scheduled time. Other than that, Scott was very professional, and very knowledgeable. His crew completed the work earlier than expected. We will be using his services again soon and I definitely recommend using this company! read more

Our experience with CertaPro was outstanding! We'd put off a project involving drywall repair and painting for years because it felt overwhelming, but from our initial consultation through the completion of the work the team from CertaPro made it so easy. We're thrilled with the outcome, feel dumb for waiting so long and look forward to having them paint the rest of the house soon! read more

Carlos and Rico were the painters for us, and they did an excellent job on our new home. They were professional, courteous, and went above and beyond to deliver what we wanted. Always in good spirits and gave us constant updates on the progress they made as the project went along. I would highly recommend them and CertaPro for your painting needs! read more

Had full exterior of our residential building done less than 2 years ago. In just a few months after job was done, areas were bubbling and cracking and peeling. In areas never bubbled before. It wasn't in bad shape to start with just needed a refresh. It's now much worse than it was before. I'm also very upset about the beautiful wood work they talked me into stripping and restaining. There was nothing wrong with it at all. But they assured me that if I don't do it, that it would rot. Guess what?! Their horrible job started to immediately crack and peel in a few months. There's weird black moldy spots now! Looks like untreated wood when I had beautifully stained wood before! I'm also surprised to read about the Andrew guy still being around. He was a nightmare too. Totally disorganized and uncommunicative after the sale. Forgot to select colors with me so I was forced to select the evening before job started because they already scheduled the painters! What?! Now that I've left messages, no one's calling me back! read more

Bob Mauser The business owner is an outstanding professional. I signed a contract with him to paint the interior of my home. He did an excellent job that I immediately signed a second contract with him to paint the exterior of my house too which he did another outstanding job. Many of my neighbors complemented me on the outstanding paint job. I recommend Bob Mauser highly. He proved to me to be a man of Integrity and high end painting professional for both interior and exterior. Thank you very much Bob. read more

Disappointing - i thought Andrew B would be an excellent contact, however, he ended up ghosting me. Sent the initial quote and never heard from him again. I had high hopes too since my place is walking distance from the business. However, Andrew, Gave a bad impression and I decided to not use this company. read more

The multi windows and crafted French doors of our 1914 Spanish Mediterranean home were recently rejuvenated with a vibrant paint uplift by CertaPro Painters of Pasadena. Many compliments go to Julio and Jose for the lustrous new look of these venerable fixtures. Indeed, their skilled craftsmanship, exemplary work ethics, and personal aplomb truly reflect the company's warranted motto of customized premier service! Ella Wing Eagle Rock read more

There's nothing "pro" about CertaPro painters. They were unprofessional, snarky, dishonest and messy. Let me provide details and pictures. I was eager for the job to begin-- painting living room, dining room and two stairways. The job was ~500 sq. ft. and took 4 days. They started with the living room/dining room area. They didn't have the paint needed for the job, although I contacted them the week prior with color choices. They were not prepared so it delayed work a bit. On the first day they (2 guys: a "foreman" and a helper who did menial work) spent two hours taping the area. Then they painted. The paint ended up on the cabinets, fireplace stone and adjoining walls. (See pictures). When I mentioned this to the foreman, he said: "Paint always bleeds through. Don't believe the advertisements that say tape prevents paint bleeding." This seemed unexpected for a "professional" painter, but OK, that was his statement. He also told me the paint in the small kitchen area was a different color because of the light, on a day that it was raining and cloudy and he had not turned on the lights. The paint was (and IS) a different color. I share this only as an example of the multiple excuses he made about: uneven paint lines, paint "bleeding", different colors of paint from supposed same paint colors, and many more that I could share. They didn't fix bumps or blemishes on the wall. They simply painted over them, creating more bumps and disfiguration, including painting over nails. (In interviewing other paint companies, I was told most companies fix these blemishes so you get a professional look.) At the end of the first day, the foreman apologized for being "rude" (his word). I wouldn't say he was "rude", I'd say he was unprofessional, snarky and gave excuses for mistakes rather than fixing them. In addition to the painting mistakes, they were unprofessional in other ways. They took over my house for 4 days, doing whatever they wanted. For example, they poured paint down my kitchen sink which left a film over the entire sink. They did not clean it up. (By the way, there is a faucet downstairs near where they were storing paint. They could have used this faucet but instead used kitchen sink) When I mentioned this the next day, they used the bathroom sink instead and left a mess in that sink as well. They unplugged my washer and dryer, without asking or mentioning it, so they could plug in their own devices. They could have asked and I likely would have said "yes". They did whatever they wanted in my home; whatever was convenient for them, without showing respect or courtesy to the homeowner. (I have several more examples but this gives you the idea.) I suggest the Company provide training on "respecting customer's homes" and communication training. A simple conversation about use of a kitchen sink and use of homeowner's space might help avoid these issues. Communication is key! By the way, I worked for a global construction company for 20+ years and know that you can complete jobs like this while being respectful and courteous AND doing excellent work. We were highly professional and customer-oriented, and grew to 65,000 people because of a successful approach to business and customers. Lastly, they damaged my wood floor (pictures below) and refused to take responsibility for it. In my experience, a professional person is honest and owns up to his mistakes. This is an important aspect of being a professional-- being honest and ethical. I cannot recommend this company in good faith. Different crews produce different experiences of course, and you may find luck with different people. This was my experience within my home. read more

Excellent quality work, professional communication, pricing reasonable and as quoted. Easy to work with. Could not recommend more highly.

I hired CertaPro to paint two rooms a deep shade of blue. They did a terrific job with close attention to the details. Also, I forgot that I had paid for them to paint the inside of one of the closet doors. After they had finished up and left, I checked the original contract and realized my oversight. I called to let them know, and they were happy to send back a member of the crew to finish up painting that door. All in all, it was a positive experience. Would highly recommend CertaPro Painters of Pasadena! read more

We had a great experience with CertaPro! Everyone we've dealt with at the Pasadena office has been fantastic. We wanted the exterior of our house painted including the trim and fascia boards. Andrew came out to take a look and we had an estimate from him a few hours later. He was very professional and friendly and answered all of our questions and concerns. Shana from the office followed up with us after we accepted the proposal and our job was scheduled within a couple weeks. The painters, Alejandro & Mitch, were absolutely awesome! They arrived with Shana on the first day and the three of them went over the job with us to make sure we were all on the same page. Alejandro would check in with us whenever he had questions about something and we were impressed at how much attention he gave to little details. The paint job is fantastic and looks amazing, and the price was pretty good, too. We're very happy and will definitely call CertaPro in the future for any painting we need done. A big shout out and thanks to Alejandro, Mitch, Andrew, Shana, & Bob! read more

Let's just say if you read some of my reviews you'll see I'm pretty critical. Bob's branch of CertaPro Painters works just the way you'd hope. Very professional, picks up the phone, everyone does everything they promised and off they go at the end of the day. Don't even hesitate to get an estimate for your next job. read more

I was extremely pleased with the professionalism of the painters and the quality of their work. They arrived each morning before 8:00 am and worked steadily until 4:00 pm. They cleaned everything up before they left and I was always made aware of the progress and what to expect for the following day. The job was finished in less time than I had anticipated and they made my 119 year old house sparkle! They certainly deserve five stars. Helen Pontarelli read more

Bob and the team at CertaPro certainly are Pros. From one phone call to the office and then getting a prompt estimate from Bob, making plans to start the work, and efficient and mindful service during the job made painting our house a breeze. Bob is very available to making sure all things go as planned. read more

I highly recommend Certa-Pro Painters. They were very efficient, professional and extremely courteous to all the residents. I live in a complex made up of 6 separate buildings with lots of mature trees and bushes. This was definitely not an easy project! We didn't lose one bush, plants, etc. Give these guys a call. You won't be sorry. read more

CertaPro did some interior work and the entire exterior of our home. Inside there were a number of areas where they repaired existing problems. They did an excellent job of matching existing colors and the results were a seamless blending of old and new. The exterior was done quickly and well. The owner, Bob Mauser, was a pleasure to work with. His estimate process was detailed. I was impressed that he remembered everything we talked about during the walk through. All items appeared on the job proposal and all were completed by his crew. The price was quite reasonable. The work was completed on schedule. The crew was friendly, professional, and thorough. A project manager stopped by on the final day to make sure we were happy with every aspect of the job. We had a great experience and feel we got great value for our money. We definitely recommend CertaPro of Pasadena. read more

I have used this company several times with very good results. Michael and Christina are excellent representatives of the company and work well with customers.
