How To Choose a Painter in Miami
- Cost: Contact a few companies to get price estimates. Watch out for exceptionally cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Make sure you get all guarantees in writing, and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Have your painting pro walk you through paint options and related benefits and drawbacks to ensure you select the right type for your project. Some paints, for example, are more eco-conscious or better at withstanding weather damage.
- Qualifications: Ensure the company you hire has the licensing required in Miami and in the state of Ohio. Make sure your painter is properly bonded and insured. This is especially important if they’re working with power equipment or on ladders. If your home was built before 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, you might look for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Get friends and neighbors to provide references, or use the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to browse providers you’re considering. You can also read customer ratings on sites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
