"Richard and his crew are incredible! After trying to tackle popcorn ceiling removal ourselves (and breaking a wrist in the process, ugh), Chifla R Painting saved the day. Within two weeks of giving us a quote for removing the popcorn, applying skim coats, and painting the ceilings and walls, Richard had a crew of guys on-hand to get the job done fast. They were flexible with the color palette (separate colors in the bedrooms vs common areas) - and they brought an electrician to install new lights and ceiling fans, as well as update the outlets and wall plates. Our home is beautiful because of their skill and expertise. Do not hesitate to call them!"

"They were friendly and cleaned up after themselves. The painting was top notch and there were no problems or issues. I will use them every time I need painting done in my home. This was also the cheapest quote of four other companies and they offered more services for the price."

"Alex and his crew did an amazing job! He is a pleasure to work with and his prices are fair. In total we had our hardwood floors redone after they were water damaged; repainted our first floor, installed a new island and retiled our fireplace. They also installed new screen doors on the front and back of our house. They worked quickly but diligently. We are very happy with the results and are planning to use them again for our next home project!"

"Julio, Elisio and their crew did an awesome job of repairing the deck, replacing the steps and painting the deck. They ensured the furniture was moved off the deck and placed back once the painting was completed. Cost was very reasonable. Both of them are very easy to work with and very responsive and accommodating. We are very satisfied with the work completed. We will need to see how the paint holds up in the long term. We hope to have similar experience with other projects with them."

Samuel and his team were able to work with my vision and execute the remodel of multiple areas of my house, sticking to the schedule given, even when I made last-minute changes. His communication was extremely timely and attention to detail, which is very important to me, was very high. I will definitely use this company again for future projects and I will say that the value is great for the money paid."

"I was a General Contractor for over 27 years. Having said that, my experience with EDP Painting Co. was extremely pleasant. Laurence was easy going, cooperative and professional. As per our contract the painters came in every day on time, they had a great disposition, worked well together, and executed the project perfectly. They cleaned the entire house. By the way there was no punch list, they did exactly what was expected as per contract. I am very satisfied working with EDP and I will recommend them to all my friends and family."

"After a few estimates by other companies that I was not happy with, I called Tri State. Patryk was very professional, friendly, and affordable. He responded to my request in a timely manner and provided an estimate within 24 hours. He scheduled work within a week and was prompt and courteous as was his assistant. He power washed and sealed my new wood fence and gates. Additionally, he treated and sealed my deck and railing which had stained over the past few years. The wood is now as bright as the new fence. I strongly recommend this company."

"I had a great experience with this company. We had a significant storage project where they installed several built in closets. This included a large kitchen pantry, entryway closet, linen closet, and closet for our bedroom. All of the closets looked like actual structures that had always been there. Additionally, their team was professional, on time, and pleasant to be around. I already have plans to use them for future projects."

"I was totally satisfied -- in fact, delighted -- with Javier @ Frondoyer Painting. He was responsive, courteous, meticulous, honest, and very professional. And his pricing was substantially less than the two other painters who were also referred by HomeAdvisor.com. I would highly recommend this gentleman for interior house painting, and wall or ceiling repairs. He even replaced a door, and matched the stain color and finish perfectly. Great job, Javier!"

"Bright Smart was very professional and timely. They explained the project in detail, gave me good advice, they did all the legwork for permits, etc. on time and gave me a very reasonable quote. The new service drop and enclosure look very high quality; the service panel and cable management they did inside is very organized and neat. They also took the time to figure out what devices were controlled by each circuit and labelled them all clearly. They explained what I could add with the extra space in the panel and the types of breakers I would need to purchase. They were quick and efficient with their work and professional. They took full control of scheduling of the inspection and making sure everything was done correctly. I would not hesitate to use Bright Smart again. Gianmarco and another young guy worked on the project; great guys."

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.
