Tips For Choosing a Painter in Marietta
Have the Painter walk through the project and prepare an estimate.
Providing the painter a list of your requirements in writing as you walk through the project area is extremely helpful. You should expect the painter to have several questions, suggestions and require some clarification of certain aspects of the project. The more details discussed during the walk, the more it will prevent headaches down the road, especially if you do not reach an agreement before the contact is completed and payment made.
Here are some items to keep in mind when describing the project for an estimate:
1. Prep work .
How will paint area be prepared for painting.
How will the surrounding areas be protected from paint
2. Specific Paint if desired
Manufacturer, Finish and color of paint
If not using a requested manufacturer, where will the paint be
purchased and what is the brand
3. Daily work schedule
Estimated Project duration
Estimated start and finish dates
Daily work hours (start/finish)
4. Clean up
Contractor is responsible for daily clean-up, and disposal of all debris (including paint chips >2″) resulting from the execution of the job
5. Payment expectation
Final Payment (10%) is withheld until job is complete and homeowner inspects and accepts the work done.
6. Painter to provide you a written quote/ estimate.
An overview of a potential bill will tell you exactly how much to expect for the job in details of time, paint and other expenses. Also included on the estimate will be the information about the necessary deposit to start the job.
