The command you want is chown : read man chown.

I think it would be wise to read some basic *nix documentation. Something like :
* Linux Cookbook (Carla Schroder) * Definitive Guide to CentOS * Foundations of CentOS * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Administration
It's not much use trying to fly a plane by pushing all the buttons and see what they do. This advice is meant in a friendly way.
Cheers,

Do an ls -lha public_html in the user's folder and look what group the files are owned by. Then do chown username:group -R public_html.
