"I cannot say enough good things about Abraham and his team. They were indispensible during a challenging and stressful move. Not only did they do a superb job of installing a ceiling fan to an 18ft ceiling, multiple patch repairs, seamlessly replacing and installing bathroom extractor fans that into non standard sized spaces, filling countless nail holes and repainting, and reattaching a dislodged dishwasher, Abraham did all of this amidst the chaos of a move and made MULTIPLE trips to Home Depot to color match paints when I provided the wrong cans. He was patient, thorough, and went WAY above and beyond any expectations in both service, execution, and generosity. If you have anything you need done in your home, make these guys your first call!"

"I retained J G to remove caulk and to re-caulk in and around a bathtub and a shower in two bathrooms (old caulking was 25 years old and badly worn-out and cracking). Also, J G fixed a wooden door strip to a bathroom door and did some needed re-caulking around a kitchen sink. Work was done promptly after hire and excellently in less than one day,"

"Andreas repainted all the doors and trim in my home as well as two bathrooms. In addition he repaired a large crack on my bedroom wall and painted the wall. He also taped and painted where my drywall had been opened to move an electrical and cable outlet. The repairs are undetectable. Perfect job. All were completed in four days. Andreas was prompt, reliable and professional. I definitely recommend Tsipis Brothers Painting."

"This is the team you want to do your next painting job. I'm a handy guy with an eye for detail but didn't feel like wasting my time off work by painting my home's exterior. The team came out and did an excellent job. They were clean and neat with covering ground surfaces, painted/stained all trim and wood siding with laser neat lines and we had great communication with quick callbacks and responses. My family and I were very impressed. We'll use them again for all future painting jobs. Thank you!!! 10 out of 10. A+!!"

"Honestly one of the best experiences i have had working with someone. From the first step on talking on the phone through Angie's list till the finishing of the job, I am very pleased. Firstly, communication and knowledge of the job was quite extensive. He helped explain the process and used the best materials for the job. Time and effectiveness was absolutely amazing. Finishing the whole house paint in 1.5 days and the kitchen cabinet in 2 days. He would show up with this team everyday on time and work diligently. I was never disturbed while they were here. Thirdly, the work ethic is just absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond for every request. If I had some comments after the job was done, Nerman would listen diligently and help fix it. He made sure we were satisfied with the job, and that we are. Also, very clean and nothing got dirty either. They covered the whole area very smoothly and I did not have to worry about cleaning. I hired him for first painting the house, then rehired him for the cabinets, and planning on rehiring him again for exterior painting. Truly, words cannot describe how happy I am with the job."

Frequently asked questions
Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.
We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.
Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.
Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.
- Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
- Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
- Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
- Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
- Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
- Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
- Calculate paint coverage
- Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
- Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
- Sign a contract with the pro of your choice. You might need to make a down payment, usually 25% to 50% of the total project cost to cover material costs, but not all pros require this. Don’t pay for the entire project upfront.
- A complete inspection. Each pro takes a walk around your home to evaluate the condition of your current paint, the size of the job and any obstacles for accessing the site. They do this to see how much prep work they’ll need and estimate how long the job will take. The more thorough the inspection, the more accurate the quote.
- Color consultation. Expect each contractor to have varying color options and suggestions. However, you have the final say.
- Listen to the pro – they’re experts after all – but don’t get pushed into a color combination or finish type that you don’t want. Understand the different exterior paints or interior paint choices before your pro arrives.
- A rough estimate or complete quote. Finishing contractors vary here. Usually, they can quote straightforward projects on the spot. But some may need to take it back to their shop to run numbers and give you a detailed estimate with costs broken out. Neither method is better than the other, but just make sure to get multiple quotes.
- How long have you been in business? A long business history helps you avoid shoddy companies. It’s hard for a service business to stay in business if they don’t do good work.
- Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
- Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
- Do you have other work I can look at? Always check a portfolio or, in the case of painters, it’s better to look at work they did a few years ago to see how well it’s held up.
- How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
- How many people are in your crew? This is especially important if you work remotely. More people generally means more noise, but they’ll be done faster.
- Will I be in the way if I’m home during the painting? You usually won’t be in the way, but this question helps you understand what to expect while they’re working. They’ll need to lay down coverings and do a lot of prep work.
- Do you guarantee your work? Never hire a painter who doesn’t guarantee their work. This often means they’ll rush the prep work, since peeling never happens right away.
- What type of paint do you use, and how long is it rated to last? Different rooms need different paint and the exterior needs exterior paint. It comes in different grades with different guaranteed lifetimes.
- Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
