How To Choose a Painter in Tyler
- Cost: Get price ranges from at least three contractors. Use caution if one company's prices are much lower than the rest.
- Guarantees: Request guarantees in writing and ensure you understand which items are covered and for how long.
- Paint types: Your painting pro can guide you through the different paint choices and their pros and cons to help you choose the best type for your needs. Certain paint types, for instance, protect against weather damage more effectively or are more eco-friendly.
- Qualifications: Confirm the company you hire has the licensing required in Tyler and in the state of Texas. All painters should be properly bonded and insured, especially if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built before 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, you may want to look for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
- Reputation and reviews: Ask family, friends, and neighbors for references, or use the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to browse companies you’re considering. You can also browse customer feedback on sites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.
