"Timely, Great communication. Expectations met. David & his partners were professional and courteous. They cleaned up after themselves. We had our garage drywall retaped, textured & painted. They power washed the garage floor. They painted our entire houseâ  s ceilings & walls. Exterior door trim was either installed where non existed or repaired/painted where it was weathered. We had carpet removed & new installed. We had new Luxury Vinyl Plank installed which for the basement required a leveling compound to cure uneven concrete floor. New base board was installed throughout. They were very accommodating working around our schedule and late flooring deliveries."

"I hired AM Handyman Solutions to paint my home inside. I was getting ready to sell my house and was last minute trying to find a company who could come in and get it done. Everyone I called was weeks out, I spoke with Julian at AM Handyman Solutions and he moved a few things around and got me scheduled! I was so happy with the job they did, I had some patches and needed the entire inside repainted! They came in and got the job done a week before closing and left my home as clean as if they had never been there! I absolutely would recommend them! Very professional and helpful!"

"Ken Ortega's skill as a painter is top notch. He sanded and completely gel coated and sealed my 15 year old fiberglass front entry door and the accompanying wood window trim. The entry way now looks like it did when it was new. The entire project was completed in less than two days. Ken is a true professional and a perfectionist. He has earned my highest recommendation."

"Raul and his crew did an excellent job removing old interior drywall that was starting to crumble in a 55 year old home, and then reframed the sublevel foundation wall. Next, they added new drywall, texture, & paint. They also built a 7 ft wide closet with 6 shelves and clothes hanging bar with sliding closet doors. Everything turned out great with excellent finishing touches (new window trim & baseboards). Raul also helped with several other small maintenance jobs --- added new concrete curb at backdoor, patched & textured & painted other small cracks in drywall, repaired broken window shutter & gutter that blew down in a storm.

"They came out and painted my shutters and front porch. But first, they replaced any wood that needed it. They went up on the roof to paint a couple of vents. They did an excellent job. They even found someone who could come in for a second job (painting 80 balusters and staining 5 newel posts) at the last minute. Beautiful, professional job. No mess was left and they had great advice. Definitely hire them again."

"BLU Roofing helped us through not one, but two hail storms during the summer of 2018. J.R. with BLU Roofing managed all of the subcontractors to repair damage including replacing the roof and gutters, painting the house, and replacing the garage door. He also managed all of the interactions with the insurance company including the requests and approvals for supplemental payments for things not included in the original estimate. J.R. has continued to make himself available for phone calls and questions that I have had since everything was completed. If you find yourself dealing with hail damage, I would recommend giving BLU Roofing and Construction a call."

"Replaced several metal roof panels that blew off in wind storm 12.15.21 with new ones. Original roofers used inadequate screws. Job completed in one afternoon. Cost was price quoted. I don't expect to have a problem with the roof ever again - and that's worth what it cost."

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.
- Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
- Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
- Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
- Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
- Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
- Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
- Calculate paint coverage
- Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
- Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
- 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.
- 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.
- Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
- Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
- 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.
- How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
