Just today, giving a potential client an exterior paint estimate, quoting only the high areas on her two story home. As we walked around the perimeter of her exterior siding, we stopped on the back porch. Telling me she painted all the lower area herself, but taking all summer long.

All the while knowing in my mind our expert painters could have done what she did in a matter of days, not weeks, or months. I don't know about you, but I have more important things to do in my entire summer's leisure time, than paint an exterior.

I know my furnace went out this past winter. Living here in Colorado, you do not want to go too long without heat, so googled and found local furnace contractor Budget HVAC to replace unit. If I had tried doing this, I know it wouldn't have gone near as fast, not to mention screwing it up, possibly blowing it up, having to buy two, instead only buying one.

Thanks for the info on painting contractors. My dad needs to paint a building. I’ll tell him to look for a painting contractor to hire.

Thanks for pointing out that it would be helpful to ask friends and neighbors. As you said, they might know a painter that has serviced them before. I would suggest this to my cousin who just bought a property this month and plans to get the whole exterior repainted.

It’s great that you talked about how a professional painting contractor gives you a detailed work proposal. Recently, my wife and I realized our house’s exterior could use a fresh coat of paint. We believe our paint looks too damaged, so we’ll be sure to look for a professional’s help. Thanks for the advice on painting contractors and how to find one.
