When it comes to improving the look of your home or business, hiring the right painters should be at the top of your list.
Whether you need a quick touch-up in a few rooms or a complete renovation, using experienced, professional painters usually results in a much better outcome.
Before embarking on any home project, you must first estimate your budget so you know what your cost limits are before you receive any quotes from contractors.
Hiring quality painters will not only ensure you will receive a high-end paint job, but it will save you the time, money and hassle of doing the job yourself. However, with numerous painting companies to choose from, how do you know which one will be right for you?
Here are 5 tips for choosing the right painting company:
- Research and Compare: Before choosing a painting company, it’s important to research and compare the businesses you are interested in – and not jump on the first one you find. These professionals are permanently altering your home, so be sure you take the time to compare quotes. Search online to find the names of quality painters in your area.
- Request References: Quality painters will be able to provide you with positive references when asked. Not only will this prove they have experience, but it will introduce you to clients satisfied with their services. Try to ask for three to five references so you can get a better understanding of the company’s work.
- Learn How They Handle Estimates: Are estimates free and in person? Do they offer online or virtual estimates as well?
- Licensed and Insured: While a license is no longer required in the state of Michigan, hiring a company that has one is always smart. Using a licensed painting company means the business you are choosing does quality work. It’s also important to make sure you are choosing an insured painting company. This will give you peace of mind, knowing the company is covered if anything goes wrong during your paint job.
- Quality vs. Cost: Cheaper does not always mean better. Research the costs of each company and, of course, their deals; but take into account the quality of work they do and the reviews left by their customers.
