"JP Painting (Joey Pesaturo) did an outstanding job painting our new kitchen. We hired him to paint our ceiling, walls, baseboards, and trim around the entry ways, a door to the basement and a window. His professionalism was evident in his communication as we discussed the job and expectations. He was accommodating when we asked for last minute additions to the job (paint the basement door and new baseboards). He has a diligent work ethic and was considerate of being in our space and of our time. He told us his timeline for completion and kept to schedule. He took time to prep the room and protect the new cabinets, countertop, back-splash and new appliances. His painting was meticulous, the quality exceptional. The quote was fair and reasonable and we have already asked for the services of JL Painting again on a related project. This was a great experience for us with a contractor."

"Kyle has done all sorts of work in my home from replacing light fixtures, installing a ring camera, shelving, mounting a tv, a gate on the porch - and much more. He was always on time, friendly, knowledgeable, cleaned up well, made great suggestions on how to get things done well. And he was very affordable. I have recommended him to several people already and a thinking of many other jobs I will be using him for including new front door, front walkway, custom closet and more!"

"Perfect amazing spectacular professional honest prompt affordable I can t say enough.I hired life In colors to paint my porch ceiling stairs post and foundation , they did an amazing job , Ozzie the owner is a pleasure to work with. The painters arrived every morning at the same time . They first power washed the porch then scraped and sanded all loose paint , secured all boards on the deck and stairs with screws . Caulked the ceiling where needed , they applied a primer and several coats of paint , I mentioned some of the stairs needed a wood bonding which Ozzie had already taken care of . My gutter was on back ward with an old bracket Ozzie took care of that also the gutter was leaking he took care of that as well .when it came time for the 30 plus year old door they removed the kick plate I thought I would have to buy a new one they sanded it to look brand new ,amazing ! The front door looks like new . He applied caulking on all the cracks on the foundation and applied several coats of paint looks beautiful . Throughout the day Ozzie would ask me to look at the way things were going he wanted to make sure I was satisfied and happy, when the job was done we made several walks around the property to check on all work completed. They vacuum all paint chips and clean everything as they go and when they are done . I am extremely happy and completely satisfied for a beautiful job well done , I will definitely be hiring them again , I highly recommend them for any painting job ,call them you will not regret that you did . Thank you life in colors for a perfect job!! Lynn Falke"

"Mr. Pontes and his team did a wonderful job on our outdoor enclosed porch. Some of the projects were: Removal the old carpet and disposal, replace the screens around the whole room, install new vinyl floor 100% waterproof, scrape and sand the wood ceiling, painted wood and siding, one coat of stain on ceiling, one coat of clear Polyurethane on ceiling and many more things also. This is the second time I used his expertise for a job. Once again, everything turned out great! Thank You Mr. Pontes!"

"The two men from Square Services arrived on time and immediately began working. They were very professional and skilled at the care they took to clean my older roof. They were successful with removing all the green mold and grime that had collected on the roof. They were very neat and removed the roof dirt that dripped on the siding and windows. They worked as a team very diligently and made sure I was pleased with the work. One shingle above the front door was showing wear and they happily replaced with a new shingle that I supplied. I would highly recommend this company for roof cleaning."

"Bernardo and his team have painted the entire interior of our house plus basement. We also had an 80ies kitchen and did not have large enough budget to change it. So we asked them to paint the cabinets and counter top and they did excellent job. We appreciated Costa Quality Painting because they were on time, they finished exactly on the day agreed and they did a splendid job with attention to detail and cleaned the house after they finished. Bernardo knows his trade excellently, he will listen carefully to the special wishes, advise if he is asked, communicate it to his crew to most professional results.."

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.
