    Painting

    "A friend referred me to Alex/ALR Painting for my kitchen cabinets, and I could not be happier they did! After meeting with multiple painters and being disappointed with their overall customer service, and their price points, I was just about ready to give up and buy all new cabinetry, that I really couldn't afford, but then my friend handed me a card for ALR and I'm so grateful they did. Excellent customer service from the first point of contact, and like the tag line says, he definitely took the intimidation out of my project! I was shocked at how passionate he is about his work, it definitely showed when I saw the finished product. I can't stop staring into my kitchen and cannot wait to work with him on the rest of the house!"

    "I hired Cristian and his team to paint my kitchen island, interior bedroom, front door and some trim outside. He was highly communicative, punctual and professional - with a high standard for the end result. When he had almost finished my kitchen cabinets, I realized the color wasnâ t what I expected. He happily adjusted his schedule to re-do the cabinets in a color I liked better, and barely charged me more for the extra work. I provided all the paint for the project (by choice) and the paint I selected for the front door wasnâ t drying properly and caused the door to not look uniform in color. I didnâ t even notice, but Cristian said he wanted it to be perfect and wouldnâ t feel good leaving the door that way. He suggested a different paint and redid the door for me (at no extra cost). The door looks way better now, and I very much appreciated his level of detail and professional standards. His team was amazing and I couldnâ t be happier with the end result. I would hire them back for any project and couldnâ t recommend them more."

    "They were on time and finished quickly, in only two days. They did extra services, including installing a side door and new outdoor lamps, and making minor repairs to wood. They were also able to apply paint in some challenging places where there was very little room for them to maneuver.

    "Our 1923 Craftsman bungalow was in serious need of interior painting and we are so grateful that we found Michael Brandt Enterprises because this job required the professionalism and attention to detail that Michael provided. Michael spoke at length to us about his process and the types of paint needed, especially for our old wooden windows and trim. He encouraged us to meet with the color consultant at Dunn Edwards and to sample some of the warm neutrals we were considering. When we were stuck between a few colors, he patiently responded to our every question and made suggestions that were super helpful. According to other painters, our interior paint job was a challenging one as the condition of the walls and wood trim weren't great and there were furnishings in the home. If Michael found it challenging, he didn't show it. He and his sweet helper, Elmer the Dalmatian, worked long days and finished the job on time. The price was affordable, and more importantly, the job was highest quality- truly excellent. Michael prepped the rooms meticulously. He was super respectful of our home. Michael fixed cracks, smoothed out bumpy trim, and made the walls and ceilings sparkle. We truly can't stop smiling and staring at the walls. It's clean, bright, beautiful and all because of Michael Brandt. If I could rate him 10 stars, I would without hesitation."

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.
