Bad Contractors Cost More Than Money.
They Cost Trust.
That's why Great Lakes Finishing Solutions created the Perfect Fit System—a proven process that matches you with pre-screened painting and drywall finishing contractors who actually show up, do the work right, and stand behind it.
It's the Most Expensive Mistake You'll Make.
Low bids mean cut corners, poor materials, and work that fails in months instead of years. Great Lakes Finishing Solutions connects you with contractors who price fairly, work professionally, and deliver finishes that actually last—saving you money where it matters most.
Every Bad Hire Costs You Twice. Once in Money. Again in Reputation.
Great Lakes Finishing Solutions eliminates the guesswork with our Perfect Fit System—connecting you only with vetted professionals who meet our rigorous standards for quality, reliability, and accountability.
Why Choose GLFS?
The GLFS Difference
We eliminate the contractor lottery.
Here’s how we’re different from the traditional approach.
You know the nightmare scenarios: the lowest bidder who disappears mid-project, the contractor who seemed qualified until the work began, the paint job that failed within months, the safety incident that could have been prevented. One bad contractor decision can cost hundreds of thousands in repairs, downtime, and reputation damage. That’s why Great Lakes Finishing Solutions exists. We’re not another contractor—we’re your quality assurance partner, ensuring you only work with verified professionals who deliver on their promises.
