Painting Company – Why Hiring a Full-Service Painting Company is Better Than a Part-Time Summer Painter

Our Professional Painting Company Saves Time and Money

Hiring a reliable painting company to paint your house helps make your dreams come true and keeps your nightmares at bay. A professional painting company gives you results that match your vision, saves you time and trouble, and gets the job is done at reasonable prices. Sounds like exactly what you want, right?

Then why are some unsuspecting homeowners helpless to resist the “summer painters” that pop up every spring?  Most likely they are offering a cheap price.

Ask the Right Questions

A part-time summer painter might quote an attractive price, but they may not be giving you an accurate estimate for the total cost of repainting your home. If you listen closely to their proposal, you may not like the answers to these questions:

  • How do they prepare the surfaces before paint application?
  • Do they have the proper equipment to reach every inch of your home’s exterior for caulk and prep or do they just do the visible parts?
  • How many coats of paint will they use?
  • What type and brand of paint do they recommend?
  • Are they licensed? Bonded? Insured?  If there are any injuries or damage, who is responsible? If they are working in your home without proper insurance, the answer is YOU!

Choosing the right professional company for your painting needs does not have to be overwhelming. There are certain characteristics to look for that can help you make your decision. The number one thing to consider when hiring a reliable painting company is its reputation.

Go online and read reviews and testimonials. Speak to customers who have used the company’s services in the past.  Look for quality painting companies with excellent track records, such as Cardinal Painting, who also provide a comprehensive portfolio of customer references. Once you’ve done your research, you will have the confidence you need to make a decision.

Keep in mind, often painting companies will have a niche that they specialize in; some do interior painting services only, others prefer to paint exteriors exclusively.  And then you will run across a few who concentrate their efforts in faux and mural painting. Larger, more well-established companies such as Cardinal Painting handle all aspects of interior and exterior painting, both commercial and residential.  And they do it efficiently and well.

Background Checks, Licenses, and Insurance

The painting company you choose should fit your needs, but they should also have the necessary licenses, liability insurance, and a workman’s compensation package as well. Cardinal Painting goes beyond these essentials. All our staff members go through background checks, a standard which will ease your mind as you open your home to us. We also have professional staff training, and our experienced managers will help keep jobs running on time with low costs and high quality.

At Cardinal Painting we work hard to help our clients end up with the home of their dreams, both inside and out.
