If you’re looking for a fresh coat of paint, but don’t want to tackle the job on your own, you should consider hiring a professional house painter. Choosing which house painter to hire can be difficult, especially when there are so many options out there. In this post we’ll cover some basic tips for choosing the best house az painting company for your needs!

 

-Start by deciding what color you want your home painted and then choose a paint with similar qualities (such as light vs. dark).

 

-Next, look at what materials the painters use; latex paints have more durability than acrylic paints. Acrylic paints are good if you prefer a gloss finish or plan on repainting in less than 8 years.

 

-Consider workman’s compensation insurance, which covers medical costs to workers who are injured on the job.

 

-Check if your state requires painters to obtain a contractor’s license or painting license.

 

-Ask for recommendations to find a good company and be sure to check out the company’s work before hiring them.

 

-Before hiring, ask each house painting company what they charge for supplies and how long the project will take. Make sure you understand any extra charges such as travel fees. A certified contractor should be able to provide all this information for you in writing in advance of starting the project.

 

-If you are hiring a painter to paint your walls, choose one that is experienced in painting walls. These painters have a thorough knowledge of the artistic side of houses and will have no problem incorporating your style while they’re doing their work.

 

-For exterior projects, be sure to hire a professional painter who specializes in exterior painting so that your house will end up looking exactly how you want it to look. When choosing painters for exterior projects, look for those who use the best quality materials and equipment. Most of all, make sure they are professionals. Avoid painters who are unlicensed or inexperienced.

 

-Exterior projects should be done in the spring or fall when the temperature is moderate, and the sun isn’t so bright that it will affect your paint’s quality. Make sure to prep your home before you paint, and protect your flowers with drop cloths. Be careful to not get paint on the brick or garden walls.

 

-Maintain detailed records of who, what and when you paid for all supplies and materials, who did which jobs and how much time was spent on each job. This will help you identify where any money may have been overcharged or if there are any extras. It is important to check for code violations (such as improper electrical connections) by a licensed electrician before doing anything else.
