James and David were prompt, professional, and were pleasant to have in our home and they did a great job. They even went above and beyond to fix sloppy painting mistakes by a previous painter. In addition, we were having trouble picking out the wall color and James, with his many years experience, helped us pick just the right color.

What to Look for When Contracting a Painting Contractor

Many painting professionals provide the same work. Having an idea what to search for and which questions to ask can help you find a painting business in Albuquerque that best meet your needs.

It also makes sense to find out about liability insurance. Your chosen painting contractor must have insurance that covers any employees, equipment and tools, and property that might be subject to injury or damage. This protects both the painter and property owner.

Typical Prices Related to Expert Paint Companies

The cost for expert house painting services can change depending on many elements. One of the biggest factors in price is the paint project’s size. Interior residential painting services totals around $3.50 per square foot, while exterior home painting jobs can cost, on average, $1.50 to $4 per square foot.

Why Height Raises House Painting Prices

When paint contractors have to reach taller surfaces on a residence to finish services, the cost can go up. This is because paint contractors must erect scaffolding and use ladders and additional equipment to reach higher areas. That’s additional manual labor, which increases prices. Some companies might also reward employees a premium to account for more dangerous services.

If painters have to work above 8 feet, for example, the cost can go up by 30%, on average. Jobs that necessitate working over 19 feet can drive costs by around 120%.

Some Other Elements That Determine Residential Painting Job Costs

Height and overall size are not the only components that can determine price. Location makes a big difference, as painting jobs cost more or less depending on the state and city you’re in. The choice of paint also determines price, as high-end or premium paint costs more. If employees must perform more prep work or repairs than anticipated, such as replacing rotten siding boards or double priming over a dark wall, the cost can also go up.

The best way to determine what your house painting gig may cost is to get quotes from prospective painters in Albuquerque.

Frequently asked questions

Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.

We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.

Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.

Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.

  1. Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
    1. Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
    2. Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
    3. Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
    4. Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
    5. Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
    6. Calculate paint coverage
  2. Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
  3. Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
  4. Sign a contract with the pro of your choice. You might need to make a down payment, usually 25% to 50% of the total project cost to cover material costs, but not all pros require this. Don’t pay for the entire project upfront.

  • A complete inspection. Each pro takes a walk around your home to evaluate the condition of your current paint, the size of the job and any obstacles for accessing the site. They do this to see how much prep work they’ll need and estimate how long the job will take. The more thorough the inspection, the more accurate the quote.
  • Color consultation. Expect each contractor to have varying color options and suggestions. However, you have the final say.
  • Listen to the pro – they’re experts after all – but don’t get pushed into a color combination or finish type that you don’t want. Understand the different exterior paints or interior paint choices before your pro arrives.
  • A rough estimate or complete quote. Finishing contractors vary here. Usually, they can quote straightforward projects on the spot. But some may need to take it back to their shop to run numbers and give you a detailed estimate with costs broken out. Neither method is better than the other, but just make sure to get multiple quotes.

  1. How long have you been in business? A long business history helps you avoid shoddy companies. It’s hard for a service business to stay in business if they don’t do good work.
  2. Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
  3. Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
  4. Do you have other work I can look at? Always check a portfolio or, in the case of painters, it’s better to look at work they did a few years ago to see how well it’s held up.
  5. How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
  6. How many people are in your crew? This is especially important if you work remotely. More people generally means more noise, but they’ll be done faster.
  7. Will I be in the way if I’m home during the painting? You usually won’t be in the way, but this question helps you understand what to expect while they’re working. They’ll need to lay down coverings and do a lot of prep work.
  8. Do you guarantee your work? Never hire a painter who doesn’t guarantee their work. This often means they’ll rush the prep work, since peeling never happens right away.
  9. What type of paint do you use, and how long is it rated to last? Different rooms need different paint and the exterior needs exterior paint. It comes in different grades with different guaranteed lifetimes.
  10. Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
