How To Choose a Painter in Oviedo
- Cost: Request price estimates from at least three companies. Be wary of any contractor that quotes a substantially lower price than the average.
- Guarantees: Be certain you get all guarantees in writing, and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Your painter can advise you on the different paint selections and their pros and cons to help you choose the best option for your needs. Certain paints, for instance, resist 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 make sure that your contractor is bonded and insured, particularly if they’re working with power equipment or on ladders. If your home was built prior to 1978, and you're worried about the possible presence of lead, you might look for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Get references from friends and neighbors, or verify the Better Business Bureau (BBB) listings of local painters. You can also find customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
