How To Choose a Painter in Hallandale Beach
- Cost: Request price estimates from at least three painters. Be wary of any company that offers a substantially lower price than others.
- Guarantees: Be certain you get all guarantees in writing, and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Your painting company can guide you through the different paint choices and their pros and cons to help you choose the best one for your needs. Certain paint types, for instance, withstand weather damage more effectively or are better for the environment.
- Qualifications: A painter in Florida can be registered, which means they can work in their local area, or certified, which means they can work anywhere in the state. Painters also need a general contractor license from the Construction Industry Licensing Board. No matter their other credentials, it's important to confirm that your contractor is bonded and insured, especially if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built before 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, consider looking for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Get family, friends, and neighbors to provide references, or use the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to review painters you’re considering. You can also find customer feedback on sites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
