    "JK Custom Painting exceeded all our expectations. Kellyn’s communication was prompt and excellent throughout the entire process. Jairo’s attention to detail is truly unmatched — the quality of his work is exceptional. We had a large project, our home is over 4,300 sq ft. All surfaces were painted including ceilings, closets, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, walls, and trim. They completely removed popcorn ceilings and wallpaper, repaired all surfaces meticulously, and prepped everything to perfection. You’d never know the popcorn ceilings were ever there. They also offered thoughtful suggestions on paint textures and colors, which really elevated the final look. Most importantly, their top priority was our satisfaction, and it shows in every detail of their work. We exceptionally happy with the results!"

    "In prepping to sell our house, my family got in contact with Will's Remodeling through Angi. Original request was only for power washing the exterior of the house, but decided to contract Will’s for exterior trim painting and repair, deck washing, interior painting and total carpet replacement, owing to his experience and good reviews for remodeling homes in the area. Work: excellent; painting, cleanup, repairs, etc., all left our house looking brand new. Communication: excellent. Will took care to ensure he understood the work we wanted performed, and what we did not want performed. Estimates were clear in describing the work to be completed and the pricing. They were also very flexible in a few instances where we waffled in what exactly we needed done. Will also consistently checked in with us to ensure that they’d outmatched our expectations, and to see if we had any feedback for them. They were courteous, professional, and responsive. Would work with WR again."

    "Many painters are not eager to take on a small job. Ryan took a look at a dining room ceiling that had water stains from a plumbing leak. The ceiling needed repair and the molding required sanding and painting , due to water damage. Ryan was wonderful. He arrived on time, ready to work. He was polite and pleasant. He ran into an unusual situation, called and called me to point it out,, then went about fixing the issue, that must have been there since the house was built, 20 years ago. I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and his work! My next painting project, I will hire Ryan as my painter! ! I paid for a quality job and I certainly got a high quality result! He is the neatest painter I have worked with in 40 years! Thank you, Ryan!!"

    "I am so thankful I hired Henry at H&M Contractor for my bedroom and bathroom project. I live in a 1984 manufactured home so the walls are not drywall. They replaced the bedroom ceiling, painted my bedroom, and bathroom, installed crown moulding, baseboards, trim, and 3 nice two panel doors that they made work in my home and some other miscellaneous work. My bedroom and bathroom look awesome now. I am very happy with the results. Henry and his crew were always prompt, courteous, and professional. Henry communicated with me every step of the way. The whole project was drama free which I appreciated. They care about their work and want you to be happy. They are fantastic and I plan to use them for future projects."

I have 2 rooms I had installed drywall in that are about 600 square feet. Victor and his crew finished the job in 2 days. He is an energetic young man who is extremely personable.

    "Without a doubt, Southwind Painting, Inc., was the best contractor I have ever worked with. Reliable, honest, punctual, hard-working, personable, and reasonable, are just a few words that come to mind. They also do quality work, and I am 100% satisfied with the work they did in my home and the project overall. I needed someone to paint my living room, stairwell, and 2nd floor landing. Also, the ceiling in the living room, the ceiling in the kitchen, dining, and short hallway needed to be redone after over 30 years of â abuseâ including some nasty water stains. I received multiple quotesâ ¦but Southwind Painting came in with a price I could live with. I am a senior living on a fixed income and Howie, of Southwind, worked with me, a complete novice to this type of thing, to make sure my project was reasonable, workable, all the bases were covered, and the scheduling was convenient. Howie, with his 40 years of experience, explained all the details about what I was to expect and there were no surprises with the job or the price. Howie took care of everything including the paint I had chosen. All I had to do was remove the breakables and items I could easily move. Howie and Todd moved everything else (and put everything back when they were done!). Howie and Todd arrived on time both days the project involved. Not 5 minutes late, or 15 minutes late, or within a 2-hour time frame. He said they would be here at 7:30 a.m. each day and they were here at 7:30 a.m. each day as promised. As soon as they arrived, they began working in earnest and didnâ t stop until the end of the day. Both gentlemen are professionals and excellent at their craft. They may have taken breaks, but I was not aware of them. They worked quickly, efficiently, and with much care. The walls and the ceilings look wonderful! They turned out better than I had hoped. And I do believe Howie and Todd enjoy what they do. Otherwise, how could a project go so well and with such wonderful results? I would highly recommend Southwind Painting, Inc. Better contractors, you will not find."

    "We had multiple jobs around our home, listed below. Andres is honest, fair, prompt, communicative and just a lovely person to work with. He makes sure all of the details are wrapped up and takes well-earned pride in his work. We have already hired him for another large job and have quite a long list of future jobs as well. Just an absolute delight to work with him. As to the work he did, while we called Andres about painting our kitchen cabinets, he ended up doing several of the projects on our list. In addition to painting cabinets, he installed a vent hood, removed old and installed new backsplash tile, removed a large framed TV cabinet/mantel and replaced it with a beautiful stone fireplace surround + mantel, repaired and repainted our large front porch, replaced an exterior door that had rotted AND pressure washed the entire house exterior. EXCELLENT experience."

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.
