When John Camp solicited bids from six painting companies for a kitchen wallpaper removal and cabinet project, CertaPro Painters of Birmingham-Troy won on both price and the confidence his family felt in how the team would complete the work. He later called the results "more than outstanding from start to finish" and described the entire operation as "easy to do business with." That combination of competitive pricing and follow-through defines how owners Mike and Danielle Thomas run their Oakland County franchise.
Mike handles on-site consultations and walks homeowners through detailed, line-by-line estimates covering every aspect of the project. Danielle manages scheduling, client communication, and ensures punch list items get resolved promptly. The husband-and-wife team operates from 125 E Maple Rd, Suite B in Troy, serving 23 communities across Oakland and Macomb Counties including Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, Royal Oak, Rochester Hills, Sterling Heights, and Waterford.
The fully insured team specializes in residential and commercial painting, cabinet refinishing, drywall repair, wood replacement, deck staining, and brick lime wash applications. CertaPro Painters of Birmingham-Troy is EPA Lead Certified for work on older homes and offers a two-year limited warranty on most residential projects. A complimentary color consultation is included with every estimate.

Carol Johns took advantage of the color consultation but once the main color went on the walls, she decided she was not happy with it. She contacted Danielle and "there was not a problem with them to change the color." They negotiated a small charge for the paint difference and the project was completed the next day. Carol noted this flexibility alongside the fact that she was already a returning customer from 2017.
