Questions about painting work

What should I include in my painting work request?

List the rooms or exterior surfaces, their present condition and whether you need preparation, repairs or a colour change.

How can I compare painting quotes?

Check preparation, repairs, coating system, number of coats, access equipment, protection and cleanup.

How many businesses can I ask for quotes?

You can choose one, two or up to three interested businesses from a private shortlist.

Does the lowest painting quote cover the same work?

Not always. Preparation and coating specifications can differ, so compare the written scope as well as the total.
