The exterior of your home is what you first see when you drive down your driveway. It is what everyone sees from the road as they drive by. The exterior of your home is your home’s first impression. Hiring an exterior house painter who is experienced and qualified is very important. You don’t want to hire someone who does a poor job, takes a long time to finish, or causes damages to your home. Below are a few steps to consider when hiring an exterior house painter.

Steps for Hiring a High-Quality Exterior House Painter

  • Get estimates – Be sure to get estimates from several exterior house painters. Take the time to meet them so that you can get a feel for them and to ask any questions you may have.
  • References – Look at the references and reviews of any potential exterior house painter. Go to the Better Business Bureau and look at the company’s ratings. Ask friends and family who they have used and liked.
  • Qualifications – Before you hire an exterior house painter be sure to check their credentials. They should have a business license, insurance and have good standing with the Better Business bureau.
  • Communication – Communication is key for any job. You will want to hire a painter that is good at communicating with you. Be sure to discuss all expectations before hiring them. Some expectations like a smooth surface free of old paint before applying new paint isn’t always done unless communicated otherwise.
