How To Choose a Painter in Anderson
- Cost: Get price ranges from at least three contractors. Be cautious if one installer's rates are much lower than others.
- Guarantees: Ensure that you get all guarantees in writing and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Ask your painter to explain various paint choices, including the positives and negatives of each, to help you make an informed decision. Some options cater to specific needs, such as weather-resistant or eco-friendly formulas.
- Qualifications: Verify your painter is properly licensed to work in Anderson and in the state of Ohio. 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 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: Get family, friends, and neighbors to provide references, or use the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to review painters you’re considering. You can also browse customer ratings on sites such as Trustpilot and Google Reviews.
