 Why can 3 different
painting companies job quotes be so different on the exact same
project? Each painter will paint your home but how efficiently
they work for x amount of money and how
it
looks in the end is the big question.
Hiring a painter falls under
three
categories.
- Fast and Cheap Painting
- Quality Painting
- Quality Production Painting
Fast and
cheap
painting usually includes:
- I was thinking of painting but if the price is right I
may hire a painter.
- I've got a week to move in,
- use contractors budget paint, box store products.
- if it takes too long don't do it, don't sand or fix
anything you don't have to...
- I'm selling this place so I don't care too much on quality.
- a small to large crew of replaceable people in constant
training
- thin looking, rough feeling work with misses, drips, runs
and a
mess. Yes, its painted but never looks new again because .
- suprise expenses at the end of the project.
Quality
Painting
Includes:
- I have a quality home and want it to look really nice.
- use top line paint because I want it to last
- I don't want things to look
messy and rushed.
- trained and professional people passionate about their
craft that
care
- deep looking colours, smooth walls and clean looking lines
throughout the home.
- possible colour consultation services
- no unexpected price changes at the end of the job
- warranty, great service and more...
Quality Production
Combining it all into one package is the trick. We want to be
fast but not cheap. We want to be quality but not slow.
Quality production means you are getting the finest workmanship
possible at the best price possible. Good for the painter, good for the
client, great for business.

Random Testimonial |
| | Lori Bryan Posted: | Dear Chris,
I'm so glad I chose you to paint my place! You were definitely the most detail conscious painter I've ever hired. Actually, the word painter seems like the wrong descriptive... you're more of an artist.
Thank you for going way beyond what your quote included. Even though the baseboards weren't supposed to be painted, thank you for your final act of service when you said, "Lori, if you run the vacuum around the edge of the floor, I'll do the baseboards for you!" That's a perfect example of your amazing work ethic and your pride in a job well done. Most painters would never go that extra mile. And the bathroom wall where I tore off the shelving unit looks pristine and the painted cupboards look beautiful. Again, you went way beyond what we agreed upon.
Thank you, thank you. I'm sure you've increased the value of my home immensely. Plus, you were just fun to have around. I hope you're in the business a long time... I'd love to hire you for my next house!
Warm regards,
Lori Bryan
