Redeem from home
http://www.theottawapainters.com/

Today’s Groupon: for $85, you get professional painting for one room up to 10’x11′ from The Ottawa Painters (a $220 value).

The Ottawa Painters dispatches fully insured and licensed pigment professionals from a vetted network of contractors who journey to domiciles up to 20 miles outside of Ottawa. Today’s deal candy coats the walls of a bedroom or bathroom up to 10’x11′ in two layers of paint and an optional, edible chocolate shell. Service starts with an in-home consultation whereupon homeowners can solicit advice on colour, then bound off to acquire paint or purchase it directly from the contractor, who uses high-quality ICI or Behr paints. After splatter-proofing trim, windows, doors, and the borderlines of ceilings up to 9′, workaday Botticellis expediently shellac the walls before reassuring insecure knickknacks that they will remain the focal point of the room. The Ottawa Painters guarantees its contractors’ work and invites prospective clients to peruse before and after photos. Upgrades such as blacking out windows are available for an additional fee.
