How To Choose a Painter in Fishers
- Cost: Talk to a few painters to get price estimates. Be wary of exceptionally cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Get a hard copy of your painter's guarantees and ensure you understand how long they last and what they cover.
- Paint types: Have your painter walk you through paint options and related advantages and disadvantages to ensure you choose the right type for your project. Some paints, for example, are more eco-friendly or better at withstanding weather damage.
- Qualifications: Confirm your painter is properly licensed in Fishers and in the state of Indiana. All painters should be properly bonded and insured. This is especially important if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built before 1978, and you're worried about the possible presence of lead, consider looking for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Obtain references from family and friends, or check out the Better Business Bureau (BBB) pages of local painters. You can also read customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
