Look for a company that is insured
While no one wants accidents to happen, from time to time they do. If you hire a painting contractor that is not insured, you could be left footing very large medical and legal bills in the event an accident happens. Always as a potential company if they are insured before signing a contract.
Ask about previous experience
A botched paint job is one of those things that cannot be hidden, and you do not want to be left with paint splatters, uneven edges, or any other unsightly painting mistakes. Inquire about how much experience the company has before doing business. It is absolutely okay to ask for previous client testimonials as well if they are not already provided on the website. You can also ask to see a portfolio of the work the company has completed in the past.
Know the painters
Speaking of inexperience, it is always a good idea to know who will be working on your project. There is nothing wrong with asking for a dedicated team of painters that you can vet beforehand. Similar to asking for testimonials or photos of previous projects, you can also ask which of those projects the painters who will be working on your house or office worked on in the past. Even if a painter does not have much experience, if they have demonstrated good work ethic and an eye for attention, that should allay some of your concerns. The painting crew should also all show up in uniform and behave professionally. If you are uncomfortable with a painter working on your project, speak up. Some companies will also let you know if they have completed a background check and drug check on all employees to increase client safety.
Communicate
It sounds obvious, but make sure you clearly communicate with the painting contractor you choose. This goes for everything. Make sure you understand the quote provided and clearly articulate your expectations for the project. You should know exactly when the crew is showing up to begin work, how long they intend to work each day, and get updates on the progress of the painting project. Maintaining clear communication throughout the length of the project will also prevent any issues that could arise with things like building access if you are having an office painted or parking problems if it is residential.
If you decide to paint, whether your home or a commercial space, give yourself enough time to research potential companies. If you are in a rush and choose the first company you come across, you may find yourself sacrificing quality. Do not be afraid to shop around and find the right painting contractor for your project needs.
