There are several key things to look for when choosing a company to perform your painting or carpentry services. At the very least, check to see if they are licensed, insured, experienced, and capable of completing the work. Look for reputable companies with local references.
We consider many things when determining estimates for painting services. Some of these could include the type and size of the painted area, type of windows and other trim work, number of paint colors, amount of protection needed for plants and furniture, quality of paint used, and the extent of surface preparation. We assess the number of hours a task will likely take and multiply our contractors’ wage by this amount. Then, we add the cost for required materials. The sum becomes the total estimate.
Different materials require the use of different paints. Some require thicker bodied paints, while others need paint with a certain texture or sheen. High-quality paints are usually more expensive, but they require fewer coats, which makes the painting process quicker. The end result is always worth it.
While we mainly use latex paints, we occasionally use oil-based paints as well, depending on the circumstances. Latex is a popular choice and can be applied to almost any surface. It also comes in a wide variety of finishes, but since it's water-based, it’s not great for metal surfaces. Oil is more durable, which makes it great for high-traffic areas like doors and trims. However, it’s more prone to age, so we try to use it sparingly in our painting services.
We’ll do most of the work, but it’s a good idea to clean the project area so it will be free of any dust or dirt. We also recommend removing any ornaments, wall hangings, or other obstructions. It’s not mandatory, but most customers choose to leave during the process, since it can get a bit messy.
