Regardless of where you look for your painting and siding contractor, exercising due diligence matters. Today, Elite Construction & Roofing shares expert tips for sizing up your prospective house painters.

Put a Premium on Credentials

Insurance policies, certifications, and awards separate trustworthy professional painters from unreliable amateurs. Thesequalifications indicate proficiency and integrity, but you should not take any credentials at face value.

Verify any information your house painter will gives you, and validate any claims on the award/certification iissuers webiste.

Have a Personal Talk

Your conversation with your prospective contractor is literally a job interview, so ask the right questions. It is your opportunity to express your concerns and test the knowledge of your painter.

Apart from listening to what the other party has to say, try to read their body language.  This can speak volumes about a painter’s love for the craft and expertise.

Scrutinize the Estimate and Contract

An exterior house painting project may not be as complicated as a window replacement, but the job will definitely have lots of moving parts.

Request a detailed bid including the products that will be used, the breakdown of the estimated cost, the timeline of the project, and the responsibilities of your contractor. Although estimates do not have a universal format, they should leave you enlightened and not confused.

Moreover, do not sign the contract without reading all of its contents. This document should be the unabridged version of your detailed estimate, so make sure both contain the same information.
