    "Steve, the owner, and his associate, Brian, did an outstanding job painting our Junior College home's exterior. I love the way it turned out: off-white body, with a nice black trim. Very classy looking. Both gentlemen were courteous, were on time, worked all day long, paid attention to detail, made helpful suggestions and, above all, were careful to protect our new deck, pavers and shrubs. They also went the proverbial "extra mile", making small repairs, such as replacing a basement vent, painting our security door and re-painting it, for free, when the original color I had selected proved to be the wrong hue. Last, but not least, the overall price for this top-quality exterior painting job was the best bid of the three bids we had solicited. Very, very reasonably priced for a high-quality, beautiful job. In fact, my husband and I were so delighted that we already hired Steve to repaint our base boards in the interior. Thank you, Steve and Brian! And to everyone considering a new paint job for your home, MasterColor Painting is the company for you. You won't be sorry."

They were very professional, very timely, and their quality of work was very good. And their cost for doing the job was very reasonable. Over all we were extremely pleased with their performance."

    "My husband and I hired Aldo to paint our daughter and son in laws newly purchased 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom townhouse in Newhall, Ca. This was a house warming gift for the kids as they are new home owners. We live in Arizona. Aldo was easy to talk to and easy to work with. Aldo and his crew started on time, did a fantastic job on the walls, ceilings, floor boards, doors, trim and the brick fireplace front. They textured the awful looking ceilings and even took some popcorn ceilings off in the closets and textured them as well. My daughter and son in law decided to have them paint the kitchen cabinets for an additional cost. Aldo even removed all the painted over kitchen cabinet hardware. He cleaned it up and reinstalled it all onto the newly painted cabinets. The kitchen cabinets and hardware look brand new. Every surface in the house looks great! Definitely would hire them again!"

    "This was a very professional company. We hired them to repaint and refinish our kitchen cabinets. The crew did a fantastic job!. Every day there was a supervisor to check on the status of the job and to keep us updated. The crew was very clean and protected the surrounding walls and floors. The other areas of the house were taped off from the kitchen to prevent any dust from spreading. They worked hard and did a professional job! Would rehire them in a heartbeat. You will not be disappointed."

    "Top Tier Crew was great to work with. This was my second project using the company. The crew was on time, polite, and addressed all of my concerns. Hector was very patient with me as I went through what seemed to be many paint colors to find the right gray. He did not rush or pressure me into any colors. The crew paid attention to detail and ensured that I was satisfied with the work along the way. Thus far, I have received several compliments on how detailed they were with the painting of my crown molding and baseboards. I will definitely use Top Tier again and refer this company to anyone looking for a painter."

    "This job was to renovate my home in preparation to sell it in early March. It consisted of a kitchen and 3 bathroom upgrade, flooring and lighting fixture replacement, painting and removal of 3 popcorn ceilings. Beginning the second week of January, the entire job was completed within 6 weeks. When first hired, the principal of Palm Construction carefully tuned in to my specific needs and targeted timeframe, offering succinct suggestions respects colors, style and quality of products used. Specialists in each trade worked cohesively with each other, as well as alongside other contractors that I had personally hired separately for windows and pool replaster. Although I had intended to live in the property during the renovation, I quickly realized that my occupancy was impeding progress, so I made the decision to vacate the premises. This was especially important during the removal of popcorn ceilings which contained asbestos. The work moved seamlessly from the removal of kitchen counters, sink, cabinet doors, appliances and flooring to the demolition of 3 bathrooms. Timely mutual decisions were made about fixtures, mirrors, flooring, sinks, vanities, paint and hardware, allowing the job to progress steadily to reach very precise goals. Along the way, it was determined that the air ducts needed replacing and AC would be a welcome addition to the total job. These issues were discussed and explained clearly and quoted at a reasonable cost - so I decided to add the change orders. Although I had never been involved with a home renovation in the past, I was very impressed with the patience and care taken to communicate with me throughout the entire job. I was a demanding customer with an expectation of perfectionism and Palm Construction was up for the challenge. Beyond the scope of the original job, Palm went above and beyond with finishing touches and little extras here and there. They've come back to help me even after completion of the job, when I needed some additional retrofits for my appliance installation, which was not even part of the original job. I know that I can count on Palm Construction to be responsive and willing for anything that may come up in the future. I learned that they are a GC that you can totally trust and rely on. In summary, I am in awe of the completed work. My friends and neighbors are astonished with the transformation of my home. The end product is flawless and most impressive. My realtor has already offered Palm Construction opportunities for other jobs. My neighbors have asked for their contact information to get quotes. I highly recommend Palm Construction for your renovation work, whether it is a large or small job. During the 6 weeks of this job, I got to know the principal, Guy Yaakov, and his team. Despite the complexities of the job and the incidental issues that came up, the personal follow-through and attention paid to all questions and requests were taken care of expeditiously and professionally. I couldn't be happier, plus, I made a friend. Thanks, Guy!!!!"

    Exterior Painting

    "I'd just undergone a horrible, costly experience with a painter last year. Still hurt and angry from the experience, I was looking for someone to undo the considerable damage this person did to the exterior of my home. This time I found Daniel Clark. I read each of the 5-star reviews and my heart told me to ring them up. It must have been fate, for Robert Clark just happened to be on another job minutes away from my house. The moment he arrived I knew I'd made the right decision. He explained what went wrong before and what it will take for a full restoration. We struck a very equitable deal and it was on and poppin'. I watched the extensive prep-work the crew did--scraping, power-washing, sanding, sealing, coating, priming, repainting--and I was totally amazed. The crew is outstanding. They worked hard nonstop, from start to finish. They were finished in four days, and I proudly say that my house looks like a home again. Not only did I get a chance to get to know the crew but I had the pleasure of meeting and sharing with all of the Clark brothers, including their father Daniel. What impresses me the most is their commitment to professionalism and customer satisfaction. This isn't just corny rhetoric, for I do not and will not support 4th-rate, jackleg companies that do shoddy work. I sincerely recommend Daniel Clark because they not only do solid, professional 5-star work but they are also good people! Right on!"

    "Alex introduced us to the CoolWall by Tex Cote system that we didn't know about. We decided to go ahead and have our exterior of house completed. Alex, Roger, Tito, and George were very professional in making sure every detail of the job was completed in a highly proficient manner. Tito patched the crack in our wall and we cannot even tell where the existing crack was located. We are very pleased with the results. Our house looks so beautiful with the new Cape Cod Blue trim and Pearl White walls. Now, we do not ever have to paint the exterior again. Our home will be much cooler in summer and warmer in winter, which will save us on gas and electric bills. We would highly recommend Home2Renovate to anyone."

    "We hired Robert and his team to help us replace and repair sections of our failing roof following the heavy LA rainy season. They performed flat roof repairs and silicone water proofing and replaced a section of the roof that was improperly installed by a prior contractor. From start to finish, the team was awesome. They were always on time, communicated clearly about the problems and possible solutions, and were honest about options and pricing. We had some complicated issues with an underlying structure in the roof, and they came over multiple times to help us properly locate the leak site. A+. Highly recommend. Will definitely hire again when we have to replace the older part of the roof."

    "Cesar Lima Painting Services (aka Lucid Painting) were very professional. Cesar took a look around the house and explained what his team would do in each area including replacing termite damaged wood (with redwood), blasting away damaged paint and stucco then repairing prior to painting, cleaning and sanding the whole structure, and applying anti fungal primer in areas that had mold damage. His team then arrived and did exactly what Cesar said they would. They were very polite and just got on with the work. Cesar provided a very competitive quote and did not ask for payment until after the job was done - even then it wasn’t like he called me straight away to demand payment. I reached out to him to organize an inspection date and then I paid by check. All in all, a very pleasant experience! :)"

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.

  1. Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
    1. Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
    2. Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
    3. Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
    4. Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
    5. Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
    6. Calculate paint coverage
  2. Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
  3. Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
  4. 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.

  1. 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.
  2. Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
  3. Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
  4. 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.
  5. How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
