I worked as a "subcontractor" for CertaPro Painters Milwaukee, WI from april, 2008 to feb, 2010.during this time i wasvery clost to lostall wat i have but finaly i took the decision and in Jan 2010 i starwork directly with my own customers i am better in my financial and my business is more stablished now and myown customers can save around 35%.

Certa pro painterssubcontract out about 98% of all their jobs. They pay their subcontractors only 50% of the contracted price, and that is for both labor AND materials This is by far the lowest pay for a subcontractor. Be awere!they never tell the property owner that they are subcontractingI believe this is dishonest i recomend to the home owners to get a less 3 or 4 estimates frome local painting companiesand ask if thay will notsubcontract your project because if they do you will pay from 50% to 25% more.
