What to Search for When Employing a Painting Contractor

Searching for the greatest painting company for your requirements and job is an excellent way to make sure the most likely possibility of success. Research more about some of the points you should consider when hiring a painting contractor in Orlando.

Research Before Reaching Out

Start with the information listed on HomeAdvisor, and then move on to do some other research about painting companies you’re interested in. That can include:

  • Looking over the contractor’s webpage to look at what services it offers and whether it makes guarantees.
  • Looking through any social media to see projects the business has done.
  • Reading more reviews and comments on Google and social media.
  • Asking friends and family for suggestions or if they know anything about a contractor you’re considering.
  • Searching the Better Business Bureau to ensure the professional doesn’t have any unsettled issues.

Ask Plenty of Questions

Once you call possible businesses, ask plenty of questions. Question what type of services a company provides and how they assess employees. Ask about budgets and timelines to guarantee the professional is able to work when you need them. Make sure the professional utilizes the type of paint you want and ask whether or not it has the proper tools to complete the work, including scaffolding, if required.

Guarantee Companies Are Experienced and Insured

Attempt to seek out a company that has experience with work that match your job. Someone who has only painted interior walls might not know how to perform outside paint projects, for example. You should also always check to make sure contractors you work with have insurance.

Regular Services Painting Companies Offer

Home painting professionals provide a wide array of services, but not every company provides the same options. Some businesses may focus on interior paint jobs, while some handle special interior paint work or decorative jobs such as murals in the kitchen.

The Most common services residential painting contractors offer include:

  • Painting inside walls. All interior paint businesses paint interior walls, usually in shades of your selecting. Question whether or not a business utilizes scaffolding if you have high walls or cathedral ceilings, as not all professionals take on those sorts of services.
  • Painting interior baseboards, ceilings, and other surfaces. Most interior painting companies paint molding, baseboards, ceilings, and other inner layout surfaces as desired.
  • Decorative or creative painting. Some painting businesses do accent walls with special painting treatments, like marbling or feathering. A few may also provide stenciling or mural projects to raise the beauty of walls.
  • Outside painting. Exterior painting companies paint outside surfaces and walls like fascia or eaves. Do not presume that a business does both interior and exterior painting—always question to guarantee both jobs are covered if you plan to contract the same business to paint the interior and outside of your house.

When talking to potential home painting professionals in Orlando, detail what type of painting you are searching for. The professional can let you know whether they provide those projects.

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.

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.
