"Apples to apples"-Tips for a successful paint Project


I am so relieved to know more than an excellent painter I trust, whose presence in my house is on the least pleasant and unobtrusive, who is orderly and respect for my personal environment. Personally, I'm more comfortable with someone working in my own home--or in the homes of my customers--who has a pretty low profile on the building site and is focused on the project at hand.

You will probably also want to feel with people in your home, even if you do not know them. There may be times when your not there, but the project needs to go! Even if it is temporary, their presence is a part of your life. Some of these things you can conclude when you meet them, and some things you just have to ask directly.

Apples to oranges?
Try to level the playing field can be tricky, because when you start to interview your painters you find that each a very reasonable explanations for processes and treatments can have. If you have a way to keep track of comments and suggestions and that by using your own list of project requirements develops, you have something to review to try to make "apples to oranges" apples to apples, "to your best-informed decision.

Here are a few questions to start with:

How long have they been in business?
Don't be shy--ask for referrals.

They work alone or with others?
As with a crew, the owner will be available for questions, following up and monitoring? This will have a lot to do with your level of satisfaction and trust.

What brand of paint do they use?
You can take the painters recommendation for brand, but you must also feel comfortable discussing this and the brand that you want to give up.

Painters often suggest replaced by brands with "we can each color in each brand mix." However, paint companies have basic materials that are different and this may affect the result. For example, it is just not possible to replicate a "Full-Spectrum" paint color in a non-full-spectrum method, no matter how it look like a short.

Three questions about preparation
How would the painter treat mildew areas?The painter will plan to fill all the holes and caulk seams?The painter will scour the walls for a smooth finish?

When the painter typical procedure?
General painting practice gives two finishes/seals and often a primer/sealer coat. Does the painter to prime the walls under the coat color? Some colors require a tinted topcoat primer.

How many layers of finish color recommends it?
What kind of paint for ceilings and walls? In most cases, flat finish paint the best for ceilings. However, the paint used for the walls is often higher quality than "ceiling white" especially as a tint or stronger color is used.

Contracts are essential
The purpose of a written contract is to ensure that all parties understand the scope of work, with clear explanations and details on surfaces to be painted, preparation, methods of working, time schedules and payment procedures for the project. Once you've met the contractors painting in person, this is the best way for you to evaluate the various proposals you receive. Equally important, it protects both you-the client and the contractor. Reputable contractors will encourage the use of a written contract.

Last but not least: don't forget these important documents
They carry commercial liability insurance? You can request a certificate of insurance with the painter insurance company.

As with most home repairs and other big projects, the details in advance adjustment will set the stage for a better experience.

Do you have a question you would like to see discussed?
