How To Choose a Painter in Wentzville
- Cost: Talk to a few painters to get price estimates. Be wary of unusually cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Get a written copy of any guarantees and ensure you confirm how long they last and what they cover.
- Paint types: Ask your paint pro to go over various paint options, including the benefits and drawbacks of each, to help you make an informed decision. Some options cater to specific priorities, such as weather-resistant or eco-friendly formulas.
- Qualifications: Ensure your painter is properly licensed in Wentzville and in the state of Missouri. All painters should be properly bonded and insured, especially if they’re working with power equipment or on ladders. If your home was built before 1978, and you're worried about the possible 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 and friends, or verify the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of local painting companies. You can also read customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
