How To Choose a Painter in Enterprise
- Cost: Ask for estimates from at least three painters. Use caution if one provider's estimates are significantly lower than the rest.
- Guarantees: Make sure you get all guarantees in writing, and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Your painting pro can advise you on the different paint choices and their advantages and disadvantages to help you pick the best type for your needs. Certain paint types, for instance, protect against weather damage more effectively or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Painters in Nevada must hold a classification C-4 license from the Nevada State Contractors Board. Companies with employees must submit proof of insurance, but it's important that you verify that any contractor working on your home is properly bonded and insured. This is especially important if they'll be 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: Obtain references from family and friends, or verify the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of local painting companies. You can also browse customer ratings on websites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
