## The honest read

A house painting project and a deck rebuild, both done in a timely manner: one recent customer says the CertaPro team showed up on time, worked quickly and was respectful of the property, and thanks Jason C., Felix and Mike by name. CertaPro Painters of Southern Rhode Island shows 4.8 stars from 342 Google ratings, and its website lists a service area that includes Providence, Pawtucket, Cranston and Johnston.

One recent customer had the whole apartment painted by CertaPro before selling it. One recent customer says the crew arrived on time every day, confirmed the work to be completed each day and cleaned up the site daily. A 2025 customer said they pointed out a few minor imperfections to Jay on the walkthrough, that he noted some too, and that everything was taken care of.

In a 2018 Houzz review, a Navy family said Bruce gave them an estimate they felt was very fair and a crew headed by Hosmar worked for two weeks. That 2018 customer said the job beat their deadline before a retirement ceremony with 1 day to spare. A 2018 reviewer said Dustin was quick to come out to look at jobs and review the design details with their designer.

In a 2017 review, a customer said Earl Gelineau came to the home on 3 separate occasions, made suggestions for cost savings and spent extra time on bedroom walls damaged by the previous owners. A 2017 customer said Ed and his crew did exterior and interior projects for them at 3 different locations. A 2017 reviewer said they received a detailed written estimate and help with color selection.

Rhode Island lists its home improvement contractor registration, GC-19612, as active, held by GWC Painting Inc.

- Walkthrough follow-through — a 2025 customer said noted imperfections were taken care of
