How To Choose a Painter in Rexburg
- Cost: Request quotes from at least three contractors. Use caution if one provider's estimates are significantly lower than the rest.
- Guarantees: Request guarantees in writing and ensure you know which items are covered and for how long.
- Paint types: Have your painter walk you through paint options and related advantages and disadvantages to ensure you select the right kind for your project. Some paints, for example, resist weather damage better than others or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Make sure the company you hire has the licensing required in Rexburg and in the state of Idaho. 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 may want to look for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Get references from family, friends, and neighbors, or review the Better Business Bureau (BBB) listings of local painting companies. You can also browse customer reviews on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
