How To Choose a Painter in Aurora
- Cost: Contact a few companies to get price estimates. Be wary of unusually cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Ask for guarantees in writing and ensure you understand which items are covered and for how long.
- Paint types: Have your painting pro walk you through paint options and related benefits and drawbacks to ensure you choose the right type for your project. Some paints, for example, resist weather damage better than others or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Verify your painter is properly licensed to work in Aurora and in the state of Colorado. Make sure your painter is properly bonded and insured, especially if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built prior to 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, you might look 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 review the Better Business Bureau (BBB) pages of local painting companies. You can also find customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
