Our team at Prep-Rite Painting knows that your home is important to you, and we want to help you keep it looking its best, both inside and out. If your home’s exterior paint job is looking worn out or tired, we encourage you to reach out to us to get our exterior painting technicians on the job. While it is technically possible to paint your own house, in our experience, you will get better results by hiring an exterior painting company to do it for you. In this article, we will go over a few key qualities to look for in a painting company in order to make sure that you and your home are in good hands.

What to Look for in an Exterior Painting Company

  • License and Insurance. When hiring anyone to do work on your home, you should always make sure they are licensed and insured. You need an exterior painting company with the right qualifications to do the job, and you need to make sure that you will be financially protected in the event that any accidents occur during the project.
  • Experience and Portfolio. Another thing to consider when choosing an exterior painting company is the level of experience of the staff. In general, the longer a team has been in this industry, the better results they will produce. In addition, we recommend that you look at the company’s portfolio to make sure they’ve worked on similar projects to yours and have produced results that meet your standards.
  • Reputation. A third thing to look for when choosing an exterior painting company is a positive reputation. You can check this by looking at the team’s online reviews, but we also recommend asking for a list of client references to contact, so you can ask former customers about their experiences directly.
