Frequently Asked Questions
Who owns the CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn franchise?
CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn is owned by Brendan and Erika Anderson, who operate the franchise locally while leveraging the national CertaPro network's systems and training. Local ownership of a franchise means customers get the brand standards on warranties, processes, and reporting, but the people accountable for the work are an Auburn-area family running their own business under that umbrella rather than a corporate-managed operation.
What is the 'Paint it Pink' initiative?
CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn participates in the brand-wide 'Paint it Pink' initiative, which supports the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The program runs across the national CertaPro network each year and turns customer projects into a fundraising channel for breast cancer research. That initiative is one of the visible community-engagement pieces the franchise carries beyond standard painting work.
Does CertaPro do epoxy flooring?
Yes. CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn offers epoxy flooring as part of its service menu, which is unusual for a painting contractor. Epoxy flooring is most often applied to garage and basement floors and provides a durable, easy-to-clean finish over concrete substrates. Having it on the menu alongside conventional painting lets the franchise handle multiple surface coatings under one project rather than referring epoxy work elsewhere.
Where is CertaPro's Auburn office?
CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn operates from 1431 S Gay Street in Auburn, ZIP 36830. The S Gay Street office is near downtown Auburn, which gives the franchise a central operating base with quick access to most of the city's neighborhoods. The phone line at (706) 705-7337 reflects the franchise's coverage of both the Auburn and Columbus markets through the same office.
Does CertaPro handle wood rot repair?
Yes. CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn includes wood rot repair as part of its service menu. Wood rot is common on exterior trim, fascia, and window components in the East Alabama climate, where humidity stresses wood surfaces continuously. Repairing the rot before painting is essential because paint over rotten wood will fail quickly. Doing both in one project is more efficient than coordinating separate carpentry and painting trades.
Can CertaPro remove popcorn ceilings?
Yes. CertaPro Painters of Columbus-Auburn handles popcorn ceiling removal as part of its services. Popcorn ceilings were common in homes built between the 1960s and 1990s, and many homeowners eventually want them removed for aesthetic reasons. The work involves wetting and scraping the texture, repairing any drywall damage underneath, and refinishing the ceiling smooth before final paint, all of which the franchise handles in-house.
