If you know which questions to ask your house painter, you’ll have a much better idea of what you should expect from your project.  We’ve included some great questions below that should help get you started, but keep in mind that every home and every project is unique.

10 Questions to Ask Your Painter

1. What kind of paint will you be using on my home?
2. Will you use different products for the body, trim, doors, or accents?
3. Why have you chosen to use those products over others? (If there’s a specific product you’re curious about, be sure to bring that up!)
4. Are you licensed and insured?
5. Are your crews insured?
6. How do you facilitate communication throughout and after production?
7. Who will I be working with on this project?  Who is my point of contact?
8. What warranties do you offer?
9. What do your warranties cover?
10. What does your production timeline look like?

This is just the tip of the iceberg, and we would encourage you to take a walk around your house and jot down any other questions that come to mind.  Another important thing for you to think about as the homeowner is who else YOU want to be involved with the project. 

This could be a spouse, friend, family member, or even your neighbor.  The point is, if you want them involved and they can’t be there for the estimate, make sure to ask them for any questions they have so you can ask them during your consultation.
