"Excellent!!! - It just doesnâ t get any better than this. The project included scraping pealing ceiling paint, applying a base coat & painting the entire ceiling. The quote was delivered to me quickly, the price point was fair and there were no add/on charges. The crew arrived on schedule, worked efficiently, quietly and respectfully. They cleaned things nicely too. The ceiling looks perfect. Itâ s without hesitation that I highly recommend Benis & Kim Construction Services LLC."

"Francis and his team did a wonder job painting my home's exterior, including the deck, porch, block structure, and trim. They even repaired a lot of wood rot, caulked many holes, and hung new shutters. My 67 year-old house looks brand new again! They provided a competitive quote, were very friendly and honest, and provided good suggestions for the project. I would highly recommend them and would use them again."

"I hired Paint the DMV to paint my exterior siding (Hardee board) and trim that also included doing some minor repair work and replacing the caulking. In addition, they mudded and sanded and painted my two car garage. The quality of the work was outstanding. The painters from Paint the DMV were very detailed oriented and cleaned up every day. In addition to the quality work, the customer communication and service was excellent. Marvin contacted me in advance of the project to lay out the schedule and arrival times. When they said the would be there at 0830AM - they arrived at 08:15AM. Marvin kept up on the weather and if rain was coming he coordinated schedule changes directly with me and did a close out call every day. I would definitely recommend Paint the DMV and I plan to use them on future projects."

"Juan and his team did an exceptional job helping us renovate . We hired them to paint several large and small spaces in our house, and each was handled with meticulous care. Beyond just painting, their wainscoting, molding and trim work are absolutely beautiful. Better than we expected. From start to finish, they were timely, respectful, professional and courteous - every piece of furniture that had to be moved was put back where they found it, and they fixed things such as patching up old holes in doors without us even having to ask. We look forward to hiring Juan again! Highly recommend."

"This is a fabulous company. I feel I got a great price, top of the line quality workmanship, and white glove customer service. I couldnâ t be happier with my experience. I used them for interior residential painting. I price shopped initially and they were the bestâ ¦. So that concerned me. You often get what you pay for! In this case I lucked out! Their timeliness, attention to detail and workmanship was outstanding, and on top of that, the customer service was just amazing. I know Iâ m using lots of superlatives here so let me explain whyâ ¦ they moved my furniture, helped me install new smoke detectors, raised my curtain rods, brought me additional samples because I was indecisive, AND worked around my 17 year old sleeping cat! Oh! And they were on time, communicative and just nice to work with. I donâ t often pick wiselyâ ¦. But I did with this outfit. I highly recommend!"

"Sam and his assistant were extremely meticulous in finding a remedy to the kitchen cabinet repairs to prevent further deterioration and solidify the cabinets so that I wouldn't have to replace them outright. Their timing for the work was prompt. The work was stellar and solid. And more importantly I found a new resource for all my future house projects that I can trust. This in of itself was the best take away."

"We have been using Losasso for several years and have finally found someone skilled we can trust! Mike remodeled our bathroom, repaired and replaced rotting outdoor wooden stairs, painted several rooms in our house, and did outdoor painting for us. We have entrusted him with so many projects it's hard to remember them all. He is very skilled and does excellent work. Also, he is really nice, reliable, and an all-around pleasure to work with!"

"Carlos and his team were fantastic. I got several quotes before deciding to go with C & I. His pricing was so reasonable we ended up having the whole house painted inside and out (shutters, door and railing, etc). Price was comparable to other painters doing just part of the interior and the quality was better than what they were offering. All the baseboards, nail pops, windows, trim... everything looks perfect! I will definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking."

"They provided excellent job on the power wash and painting of my porch. They went extra mile by also cleaning the sections of the porch that wasnâ t included so I really appreciated that. They are very professional and communicated well on timing. This is short notice for them to do the work because my former contractor didnâ t do the job so they came to the rescue. Highly recommended"

"David was on-time for initial consultation and very personable. He gave me an estimated day to start, but was able to come earlier and completed the painting of two rooms, along with trim and doors in the bathroom, all in two days. He even changed out two light bulbs in my living area that I could not reach because the ceilings are vaulted. I would definitely recommend him and his company for any painting projects."

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.
