How To Choose a Painter in Warwick
- Cost: Talk to a few painters to get price estimates. Be wary of unusually cheap prices compared to the average.
- Guarantees: Ensure that you get all guarantees in writing and that you understand the scope and duration of coverage.
- Paint types: Have your painter walk you through paint options and related pros and cons to ensure you choose the right type for your project. Some paints, for example, withstand weather damage better than others or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Make sure the company you hire has the licensing required in Warwick and in the state of Rhode Island. 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 concerned about the presence of lead, consider looking for a licensed Lead Renovation Firm.
- Reputation and reviews: Ask for references from family and friends, and look at the Better Business Bureau (BBB) profiles of companies you’re considering. You can also find reviews on sites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
