    "Pete and crew just completely repainted the interior of my 4000+ sq ft new home in Boulder. We communicated well via FaceTime while I was still in CA, and then throughout the completion of the job. He is meticulous in his prep work and attention to detail. I've never been happier with a painter! Pete was very honest about what needed painting but also about some areas where he felt the existing paint was just fine. I went much lighter color in most areas and he did as many coats as necessary. It also helped that he and his crew were really nice guys. I unexpectedly overlapped with them in the house for a few days due to cancelled travel due to COVID-19 and we managed to keep our social distancing, still communicate when needed, and all do our our work (I work from home) Thanks!"

    "Two brothers stained my fence and a variety of old posts and gates on the property. It has been very rainy and they were conscientious about watching the weather and completing the job. Logan was very good about keeping me informed via emails and texts regarding the timeline. I recommend this company for your painting needs. He also mentioned that they repair drywall"

    "Monte and his crew are a great company to work with. They painted ceilings, walls, doors and trim on the main floor of my home and did an absolutely fabulous job. Monte is very professional in his approach to painting. He was responsive to questions or concerns about my paint colors and choices. He and his crew were prompt. They were methodical in their prep work making sure all surfaces not to be painted were protected. And when they finished the job they cleaned up thoroughly and moved furniture back into place. Oh, and just as important, his pricing for services was very favorable. I would not hesitate to recommend MRP Painting to anyone who is looking for a great interior painter."

They removed 3000 sq ft of popcorn ceiling, fixed drywall and repainted our entire home leaving the new home we bought that hadn't been updated for 30 years looking brand new. Their attention to detail and willingness to come back until the job was perfect was just what you need when you're remodeling a home. Highly recommend Super Painters in Denver!"

    "We will never use *anyone* but J&J Imperial Painting for any paint job we have. Over the course of several projects, Julio and his crew have painted nearly every wall in our house â including several spaces with ceilings up to 25â . Their attention to detail and quality of work are of the absolute highest standard and they are extremely conscientious in protecting furnishings and finishes. Julio has always gone the extra mile to ensure the results are exactly what weâ d hoped for. Heâ s incredibly knowledgeable and able to make recommendations for materials and approaches that create fantastic results. Just as important, he is a true pleasure to collaborate with â thoughtful, cheerful, extremely reliable, and thoroughly professional. And his teams reflect his leadership. We couldnâ t recommend J&J more highly."

    "My time with peak pro was a great experience for a pianting project. My house was badly in need of a paint job since we moved in 2 years ago. Justin and his design team were a huge help in picking colors since we had no idea where to start. They came out and brought color samples and asked me questions about our style and what we thought we were looking for in order to find the perfect colors for our house. They did great and we love the colors. When it came time to paint the prep work ended up taking longer than expected but Daniel and Miguel did not lack in hard work to do it right. By the end of the project the 3 deck, siding and trim looked so great I had them do my interior which turned out awesome! They were very clean and efficient inside not cutting corners at all. They removed all outlets and light fixtures to be sure and do a thouorough job! Very impressed with the service and quality of work for a very fair price! Of the 3 bids I received they where in the middle of the road when it came to cost. Not the cheapest or the most expensive but fair!"

    "Luis did a great job. He took down a bar in the kitchen counter, opened up the wall attached to it, fixed something inside and sealed everything up again. The places looks as new, it is impossible to tell that there was some work done on that wall. Luis was also very friendly and thoroughly explained the work that was going on. Would definitely work with Luis again."

    "I wish I could recommend all service providers as highly as I do these folks. My experience with them was phenomenal from beginning to end. I genuinely enjoyed my interactions with everyone. Austin, the estimator, made sure all the details, right down to painting my shed, were included just the way I wanted. Yasmine, the color specialist, made color recommendations that I never would have thought of myself, but they ended up being absolutely perfect. Matt, the project manager, made me feel totally at ease about the whole process. Gabriel and his paint crew performed nothing short of a miracle stripping the paint off my deck and making it look like new. And Morgan, the account manager, was a delight to work with - her emails were like little rays of sunshine in my inbox. It might sound cliche, but everyone was so genuinely nice. Clearly they take the â Kindâ in their name seriously. And, just as importantly, they did an amazing job painting my house. As a homeowner, itâ s always scary to spend a significant dollar amount on anything house-related, but I honestly donâ t think I could have been more pleased. The price was super reasonable and competitive, and the crew was lightning fast, but still did such an excellent job. I would recommend them to anyone, without reservation. My next-door neighbors ended up having their house repainted by Kind as well, just a few weeks after mine, and weâ ve both gotten so many compliments from neighbors and friends. Iâ m so grateful to these folks for providing such an all-around pleasant experience and making my house finally feel like itâ s really mine!"

    "Our home needed most of the wood-based trim to be replaced, and both the home and the standalone 4 car garage needed paint. Candace was a pleasure working with during the contracting and execution of the project, and helped us select a color that we are very happy with. Gio replaced all of the home trim with Hardiboard. I was very pleased with Gio's confidence and ability to manage the trim replacement around our second story deck. His team removed gutters in order to replace the trim. Then, they painted the gutters and reinstalled them. I was also pleased with Gio's experience using the Sherwin Williams Emerald Rain Refresh paint. We love the results, and no longer need to worry about exterior water damage."

    "Friendly, always on time (my project went over 4 days, even though one day we had a snow storm, they showed up when promised.). They were respectful of my home, good communication, and the value of their work for what they charged was out standing! I had bids from $2,500 to over $5,000, their bid was under $2k and their work was flawless. This is a two man operation, and the owner (who has been a painter and cabinet refinished since a teenager) and his helper (who has been with him for over 10 years) are who will come and do the job. Oh, and he doesn t want to be paid until the job is done, and you are happy! Highly recommended!"

    "Friendly Painters was AWESOME. Their quote was fair, their service was fast and the results exceeded our expectations. Prior to painting, they took all of the screws/nails out of our walls and spackled carefully over the holes. They were meticulous with laying out tarps and plastics to cover our floors and furniture. When they finished the job, they completely cleaned their mess and the only trace they left was their incredible paint job. I strongly recommend them - thanks Friendly Painters!"

Frequently asked questions

Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.

We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.

Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.

Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.

  1. Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
    1. Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
    2. Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
    3. Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
    4. Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
    5. Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
    6. Calculate paint coverage
  2. Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
  3. Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
  4. Sign a contract with the pro of your choice. You might need to make a down payment, usually 25% to 50% of the total project cost to cover material costs, but not all pros require this. Don’t pay for the entire project upfront.

  • A complete inspection. Each pro takes a walk around your home to evaluate the condition of your current paint, the size of the job and any obstacles for accessing the site. They do this to see how much prep work they’ll need and estimate how long the job will take. The more thorough the inspection, the more accurate the quote.
  • Color consultation. Expect each contractor to have varying color options and suggestions. However, you have the final say.
  • Listen to the pro – they’re experts after all – but don’t get pushed into a color combination or finish type that you don’t want. Understand the different exterior paints or interior paint choices before your pro arrives.
  • A rough estimate or complete quote. Finishing contractors vary here. Usually, they can quote straightforward projects on the spot. But some may need to take it back to their shop to run numbers and give you a detailed estimate with costs broken out. Neither method is better than the other, but just make sure to get multiple quotes.

  1. How long have you been in business? A long business history helps you avoid shoddy companies. It’s hard for a service business to stay in business if they don’t do good work.
  2. Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
  3. Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
  4. Do you have other work I can look at? Always check a portfolio or, in the case of painters, it’s better to look at work they did a few years ago to see how well it’s held up.
  5. How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
  6. How many people are in your crew? This is especially important if you work remotely. More people generally means more noise, but they’ll be done faster.
  7. Will I be in the way if I’m home during the painting? You usually won’t be in the way, but this question helps you understand what to expect while they’re working. They’ll need to lay down coverings and do a lot of prep work.
  8. Do you guarantee your work? Never hire a painter who doesn’t guarantee their work. This often means they’ll rush the prep work, since peeling never happens right away.
  9. What type of paint do you use, and how long is it rated to last? Different rooms need different paint and the exterior needs exterior paint. It comes in different grades with different guaranteed lifetimes.
  10. Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
