Terrance Ladd began his career in Philadelphia learning the trade from master craftsmen on historically significant buildings. George Irving learned his painting skills on similar buildings in Toronto. Sharing a desire to bring an uncommon level of customer service to an industry not know for customer care, they joined forces in San Francisco with the goal of building a world-class painting company. Since then, they have completed more than 2200 projects, and they have been nationally recognized for the quality of their work and their high level of customer satisfaction.

CertaPro Painters' main business is full-service interior and exterior painting. Additionally, they are expert at repairing and installing new plaster ornamentation, applying gold leaf, and executing complex color schemes. Their staff carpenters perform all wood and plaster repairs commonly required on San Francisco homes. They are also capable of undertaking complete Victorian restorations.

CertaPro Painters is a nationally franchised company, headquartered in Pennsylvania, providing training on craftsmanship, safety, and customer service to ensure each customer's experience is enjoyable and one of enduring value.
