Painting the interior of your house is no small project. If you are like many people you don’t have the time to do the project yourself or your want more professional results that you can get doing it on your own.
The logical thing to do would be to hire an interior house painter to do the job for you. While this sounds like an easy task there are actually a few things you should consider before jumping in and hiring the first painter you stumble upon in the phone book. Here are some tips for hiring an interior house painter that will help you get the best value for your money, get professional results and make sure the job is done right.
Cost
One of the most important considerations when hiring a painter is cost. Prices can vary wildly between companies so it is a good idea to call around and get quotes from as many companies as you can before hiring one.
Time to Complete the Job
The last thing you want is for your house to be torn apart for weeks while you are waiting for a painter to finish the job. While you are calling to get cost estimates for the job be sure to ask each painter how long it will take for them to complete the project. Some companies may be able to finish the job in a day or two while others can take a lot longer.
Reputation/References
Even if you find a company that is inexpensive and promises to get the job done quickly, it is still not a guarantee that you will get good results or that they will stick to what they promised.
