It had to happen sooner or later. You have a lot of painting that needs to get done, and you want to hire some expert residential painting contractors to get it done for you. All that needs doing is to get a few different paint estimates and pick the best one. Seems simple enough. It is easy. Still, a lot of people manage to get it wrong, and the problem comes from focusing mostly on the price tag. Sure, we all want the lowest bidder. More money in the bank never hurt anyone. Will the lowest bidder also be the best in quality? It certainly isn't out of the realm of possibility. Several factors affect the overall quality of the job. We'll go over two critical ones below: Experience of the Painters - how long have the painting contractors been in the business? Are they highly experienced with several years of painting notched off? Or are they still wet behind the ears? The painting estimate given to you will be directly tied to the experience level of the painters involved. It is often worth the extra money if in return you're getting a lot of experience. If the new guys screw up the job you'll end up paying twice: once for their shoddy work, again for someone experienced to come along and fix it. Kinds of Services Offered - what services are incluced in the painting quote from your residential painting contractors? Obviously the basic service is going to be painting your home or business. What else will they do for you, though? Will the old paint be stripped off before new paint is applied? Are they using a high quality brand of paint? How many coats of paint do they plan to apply? Will your furniture be properly covered and your floor protected from paint drops and spills? If any spills do occur will they clean it up for you? Cheap paint or a lazy application could result in you having to do it all over again in just a year or so. And if they spill anything on your furniture you could end up footing the bill for that. The price is only one aspect of seeking a good painting estimate. A low ball figure might be good in itself, but it's what comes with the figure that's more important. You could end up with a mess on your hands if you're too thrifty. When you're getting a paint estimate from a contractor make sure he gives you references to follow up with. You need to know as much as you can about every contractor giving you a quote before you can make a sound decision.
