How to Pick Exterior Painting Contractors Easton


June 16, 2015

With the busy schedule of most homeowners, there is simply no time for them to repaint the exterior of their homes themselves. If you are searching for exterior painting contractors Easton, there are certain factors that you should consider.

Schedule an Initial Meeting

When exterior painting contractors Easton come to inspect your home, you need to take into account how long it takes them to complete the inspection. The longer they take the more realistic of an estimate you will receive. The fact is that even an extremely experienced painter will need to take a good bit of time to fully inspect the exterior of your home. During this inspection, you need to ask questions in regards to the experience and size of their crew.

Make Your Expectations Clear

There is a common misconception that the number of coats of paint that are applied will be the bulk of what impacts the cost of painting the exterior of your home. The fact is that the preparation that is required will also come into play. However, this can be the area where exterior home painters Easton and your opinion differ. If you want to have a surface that is completely flaw-free, it is important to make this known up front. While it may cost a bit extra, it will be worth being satisfied on the job that is completed.

Check Past Work and References

It is important to ask the exterior home painters Easton for references and then actually take time to go see their past work. Also, take time to examine jobs that were completed several years ago, to see how the contractors work will last.

Consider the Credentials

While the membership in a local business or organization, such as the Chamber of Commerce, is not a guarantee that the painter will provide quality work, it does show a pattern of reliability. You can also check the records of the Better Business Bureau.

 

Ask for Estimates

It is important to obtain three different estimates. These estimates should include a breakdown of all the costs including materials and labor. This should also outline the type of paint that will be used for the exterior of your home. This is a deciding factor on how long the paint job will last.

Keep in mind, it is a good idea to work with painters that will provide you a guarantee. That way if problems arise the contractor will come back and fix the issue for you.
