How To Choose a Painter in Hinesville
- Cost: Contact a few companies to get price estimates. Watch out for exceptionally cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Get any guarantees in writing and ensure you confirm what they cover and how long they last.
- Paint types: Ask your painter to walk through paint selections in detail, including the pros and cons of each. This will help you decide on the best option for your project. Some paints have better weather resistance or use more environmentally friendly formulas.
- Qualifications: For projects over $2,500, make sure you hire a painter who holds a Georgia Residential Basic Contractor License. Always make sure your painter is properly 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 concerned about the presence of lead, ensure that your contractor follows the regulations surrounding lead-based paint set out by Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division.
- Reputation and reviews: Get references from family and friends, or review the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of local painting companies. You can also browse customer ratings on websites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
