subject: How To Settle Matters With The Painters [print this page] Thinking of having your house interior and exterior painted by painters? Thats a good thing to ponder, because painting the house makes it look newer and its value higher.
One of the surest ways to find good painters is by the recommendations or your friends and colleagues who have already got their own house painted. You could also look on the directories. Once you have a list to choose from, here are the steps to help you choose the right professional painter for the project.
Meet the candidate painters personally and ask for estimates on the same service. Have at least three estimates to review. Verify if they have insurance and licenses that proves they are good enough. Insurance cover up the costs in cases of unexpected situations.
Discuss the specific work with the Painters that should be done, ask them what the best processes to do the painting are. Make fair comparisons by asking for written bids that include same preparation work, brands of paint, number of coats and the areas. The written bid should also include the time schedule proposed by the painters to finish the project.
Settle the warranty issues with the painter that would back up the entire work. Determine if the warranty covers all the labor and materials, and for how long does it apply. These matters should be completely settled before the start of the project. It should be written on the quote and the contract signed by you and the painters.
See how eager and responsive the painters are to you. How does he behave upon arriving on your meeting? Is he late or he come just on time? Does he response or returned your phone calls? What about the bid or estimate, did he got it completed on time?
Make sure that the quality is the painters top priority for working for you.
Do not cut costs if you wanted to have a high quality work done. The high quality materials used lasts longer than the local brands.
