How To Choose a Painter in Union
- Cost: Request price estimates from at least three providers. Be cautious of any contractor that offers a substantially cheaper rate than the average.
- Guarantees: Ensure that you get all guarantees in writing, and that you understand what’s covered and for how long.
- Paint types: Have your painting pro walk you through paint options and related advantages and disadvantages to ensure you select the right kind for your project. Some paints, for example, resist weather damage better than others or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Verify the company you hire has the licensing required in Union and in the state of Ohio. 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 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 references from family, friends, and neighbors, or review the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of local painting companies. You can also read customer ratings on websites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
