How To Choose a Painter in Rogers
Below is what you should consider while choosing which residential painter to hire:
- Cost: Talk to a few painters to get price estimates. Watch out for exceptionally cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Make sure you get a written contract outlining any guarantees and that you understand the duration and scope of coverage.
- Paint types: Your painting pro can advise you on the different paint choices and their advantages and disadvantages to help you choose the best one for your needs. Certain paint types, for instance, resist weather damage more effectively or are better for the environment.
- Qualifications: Painting contractors working on jobs valued at over $2,000 must be licensed by the Arkansas Contractors Licensing Board. Subcontractors working under a licensed contractor are not required to be licensed themselves. Always confirm that your contractor is fully bonded and insured. This is especially important if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built prior to 1978, and you're worried about the possible presence of lead, consider looking for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Obtain references from family, friends, and neighbors, or verify the Better Business Bureau (BBB) listings of local painting companies. You can also browse customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
How Much Does Painting Cost in Rogers?
How much you'll pay to paint your house depends on its size, the kind of paint, and the timing. Paint companies often charge higher prices between June and August. The typical cost of both interior and exterior painting ranges from $0.71 to $2.83 per square foot. Since most homes have more inside than outside space, painting the interior is generally more expensive than painting the exterior. For a 2,000-square-foot home in Rogers, you can expect to pay around $3,543 to paint the exterior and $1,417 to $5,669 to paint the interior. Alternatively, painters in Rogers might charge you an hourly rate between $13.40 and $22.33. Bundling services will usually reduce costs. It normally costs less to schedule exterior and interior painting together rather than as separate services.
