How To Choose a Painter in New Rochelle
- Cost: Contact a few companies to get price estimates. Watch out for unusually cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Request guarantees in writing and ensure you understand which items are covered and for how long.
- Paint types: Ask your painting contractor to go over various paint choices, including the positives and negatives of each, to help you make an informed decision. Some options cater to specific priorities, such as weather-resistant or eco-friendly formulas.
- Qualifications: Confirm the company you hire has the licensing required in New Rochelle and in the state of New York. Make sure your painter is properly bonded and insured, especially if they’re working with power equipment or on ladders. If your home was built prior to 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, consider looking for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Get references from family and friends, and look at the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of painters you’re considering. You can also check reviews on sites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
