How to Choose the Best Interior Painting Contractors: Top Considerations

When you plan to change the look of your home, you decide to go for interior painting. Last year, design experts chose a shade of pale green to dominate the interior painting trends, and this year, the pinkish earth tones will be in the spotlight of interior painting.

Whichever shade of color you choose, you can also try painting it. Yes, you can paint the interior part of your house by yourself. But is that something you’re willing to do, or would you rather call the professionals? 

We’ve gathered the nitty gritty on painting contractors to help you make the best decision for your needs. 

Things to Discuss with an Interior Painting Contractor Before Hiring Them

Before your home goes through a color makeover, knowing how to find the best contractor for the job will save you a lot of time and effort. Here are some questions to keep in mind to ask a contractor before hiring them:

  • Are they licensed painting contractors or not?

  • Are they bonded or insured?

  • How long have they worked as a painting contractor?

  • Do they belong to any professional associations?

  • What kind of products do they work with?

  • Can they offer any references?

  • Do they offer warranties or guarantees?

  • Do they carry out all the work themselves or do they subcontract?

These considerations will help you get a better picture of the expertise of the potential contractor, as well as allow you to plan ahead. Plus, if the contractor struggles to answer any of the above questions, you might want to change your decision. 

Ask for References from Previous Customers

The majority of reliable painting contractors have a portfolio regarding their work where there are references from satisfied customers. What’s more, they will even insist a customer leaves their review — it’s the best seal of proof to attract new customers and grow their client base. 

If the potential contractor does offer a sneak-peek into their work, take a moment to actually get in touch with the person (if that is possible) and see how happy they are with the painting job. Don’t just go out on a limb!

Discuss Different Contractors with Friends and Neighbors

How many of us have found the best new thing thanks to a friend or a neighbor recommending it? The same goes for painting jobs and different housework. Undoubtedly the best way to find a good painting contractor is by looking into your friends’ and neighbors’ experiences.  

Good news travels fast. So, if a painting contractor has done a good job in your friends’ house, it won’t take long before you hear about it. Plus, the word of mouth is more often the most precious marketing campaign a contractor can make use of.
