How to Choose a Painting Contractor

We know that choosing a painting contractor to trust with your home can be an intimidating and time-consuming process.

Among the most common fears that homeowners have when thinking about hiring a painting contractor are that:

The final price will be more than the quote
It won't look as good as they claim
The paint job won't last as long as they promise
They won't honor the warrranty
My final punch list will never get finished

Among the biggest frustrations they experienced after hiring a painting contractor were that:

They didn't return my calls promptly or stay in contact throughout the project
They didn't clean up
I couldn't get them to finish my punch list
The workers couldn't answer my questions, didn't seem to know what was going on, etc.
