FAQ:Frequently Asked Questions |
 WHAT IS COLLEGIATE ENTREPRENEURS? Collegiate Entrepreneurs hires college students for summer employment. All students are trained and certified prior to the summer. We offer a 1 YEAR GUARANTEE on our workmanship for 1 coat of paint and a 2 YEAR GUARANTEE for 2 coats; we are fully insured with WORKERS COMPENSATION AND $1 MILLION LIABILITY INSURANCE. We give FREE ESTIMATES on both INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR painting. DO YOU ESTIMATE HOURLY OR BY THE JOB? Estimates are done by the job. We can not give estimates over the phone or online. We pride ourselves on giving accurate, quantitative estimates and this is only possible by visiting the property. ARE YOU LESS EXPENSIVE THAN OTHER CONTRACTORS? We are very competitive. When comparing prices of different contractors, keep in mind insurance coverage as well as if the work is guaranteed with a warranty. Be sure to check the insurance documents, both workers compensation as well as general liability to be sure you would not be responsible in the case of an accident. WHEN IS PAYMENT DUE? A 20% deposit is due upon signing the contract. Once the job is completed, the payment is due in full. HOW CAN I PAY FOR THE JOB? We accept Cash and Checks, as well as Visa and MasterCard for your convenience. All Checks must be payable to Collegiate Entrepreneurs in order for the contract to be valid. WHO SUPPLIES THE PAINT? We supply all paint and materials. We use Sherwin-Williams and Glidden top-of-the-line paints . Customers may supply their own paint, although unless it is a top-of-the-line brand that we use, the paint will not be guaranteed by our company. CAN I GET AN ESTIMATE OVER THE PHONE? No. A manager will have to come take a look at the work to be done. Each house is different - depending on the preparation work, number of coats required, etc. It would be unfair and misleading to give a figure over the phone. DO YOU USE SUB-CONTRACTORS? No. The nature of our business is that college students are running their own business for the summer, gaining real-world experience and making money to pay tuition in the fall. They are responsible for hiring their own team of painters, all of who are fully trained and certified. |
