"I've hired Ami for 3 separate paint jobs, and will hire her again in a heartbeat. Those scopes included a stairwell (over knotty pine), our basement (including the ceiling), and the laundry room (walls and cabinets). She has great attention to detail and does super high quality work. 5 STARS!"

"I input a rating of 5 stars only because the system wouldn't let me give a higher rating. Mark hit the ground running to completely remove and replace my aging deck stairs and railings, remove and install a new kitchen faucet. He also installed a new outdoor faucet as well as repair a 2 story downspout. Just so you know, quite a bit of this was completed in the rain and done with amazing expertise. My wife will certainly be finding new projects so we can hire The Fix It Friends again! See you soon, Mark."

"*Power wash Project Chris completed an amazing job on our project. He revived our home’s driveway, front porch and garage area in no time. Best of all… he called me right away, gave me an estimate, and was halfway finished while other contractors were just calling me back. Great service, wonderful work ethic- my family will be reaching out to him in the near future."

"I cannot express how satisfied my fiance and I are with this company’s work. Grant was very responsive, flexible, knowledgeable, engaging and took a lot of pride in his work. He power washed and stained our privacy fence. We needed it done before winter came. I had been in a car accident and was unable to myself. Grant was our saving grace getting the job done in time. He execution was very professional. The job done speaks for itself! Our yard looks incredible. He even did another section of the yard(discussed with us before doing of course) to make sure the entire yard matched. To go out of his way to make our home look that much better speaks volumes. I highly recommend this young man’s work! We definitely will be using his services for future projects and will continue to highly recommend him. Thank you Angi’s List for helping us discover this company!"

"I had a great experience having Luli completely re-do my bathroom. I bought a home from the 50â s and the bathroom had never been remodeled. Luli did all of the demo and then began to re-do all of the tile / dry wall/ paint and much more. . He was easy to work with and got the work done quickly. My bathroom now looks very modern and I get so many compliments on it. I could not be happier and would recommend him to everyone."

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.
