    Interior/Exterior Painting Services, Staining

    "Our neighbors recently used S&M Painting to paint the outside of their townhome. It looked beautiful so we asked for a quote to repair and paint our dormers, the outside of 3 doors, and 17 window frames. They were meticulous by starting with power washing our townhome. They were professional and prompt. Never had to call them to ask when they would be back to finish. They came everyday (that didn't rain) and finished in about a week. They painted several coats on the outside doors until they were lacquered to the point you couldn't see the old darker red color. The price was fair and they were really nice people. They also left the rest of the paint for us for future touch ups. I highly recommend their services."

    "Johnny & Harry stained my large deck and fence. The treated wood is 35 y/ o; therefore, they paid attention to detail & applied wood putty to the deck floor. They removed all furniture, large deck table, chairs, flower pots etc I was afraid it would be difficult to replace them, due to size & weight, but the young men returned within 3 days, when the paint was dry & putty was hardened. They carried all items back on the deck. Inserted new screws for stability & everything was ready to go. My calls & texts were returned promptly & I was treated with courtesy & professionalism."

    "I had the pleasure of hiring Martin to repaint the entire interior of my home, as well as to patch and repaint my garage. I could not be happier with the results. From start to finish, Martins work was nothing short of exceptional. He approached the job with an incredible work ethic, often starting early in the morning, working long hours, and even showing up on weekends and a holiday to stay on schedule. That kind of dedication is rare and deeply appreciated. The quality of Martins painting is outstanding. Every wall, baseboard, and ceiling was done with care and precision. The transformation is unbelievable ? the house feels brand new. He also did a fantastic job in the garage, repairing and repainting. Everything looks fresh, clean, and beautifully finished. Martin is not only highly skilled but also professional, dependable, and respectful of the space he is working in. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-tier painter who truly who truly takes pride in his craft."

    ""Marra Brothers Contracting" is the real deal. We contracted them to paint the exterior of our house they were dependable, meticulous and incredibly talented. . Every detail was handled. Your satisfaction is their primary concern. The crew - Chance, Zach, and Brendan were very knowable and with good work ethic- they cared about a job well done - and even called back after the job was finished to see if anything was missed, - suprised to see this kind of follow up in today's world. We required that all areas of peeling paint were to be Scraped and Primed Using Peel Bond Primer. All areas to be painted were power washed, Areas With Mold were cleaned With Mold Avenger And Washed, Rotted Trim was Removed And Replaced.(matching/replacing/ crafting trim on a 91 year old house was no mean feat but they did it) We could not be happier."

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.

    Comment: My small bathroom needs to be repainted. I had it painted about 5 years ago, and the person did a lousy job, using only one coat of paint. The baseboards were neglected and need to be painted, too. I have several other paint jobs at the house that I'd love to get quotes for in the future (including a large stairwell and some exterior trim painting), but I'm on a budget and starting small.
