Help With Finding Commercial Painting Contractors New Orleans

By Tammie Caldwell


After so many years of daily living a home or business just needs repainting. There is no way around it, and the quest begins to find a reputable contractor to do the job and not cost a million prices. In order to improve your chances of finding the professionals you need, here are a few tips to help you find a commercial painting contractors New Orleans.

Try to find three professionals to interview and meet with them in person. During this meeting pay attention to how they conduct themselves. Write down how many years experience they have and when they first started painting. Also find out how many years they have been in business and ask to see their business license.

Find out how many other jobs they have lined up and when to set the completion date. As a good rule, the more jobs they have lined up, the better they are at what they do best. The good contractors are usually busy but do not let that deter you. Take note of how well they return your calls and show up on time for appointments.

This is the best time to start addressing the details of the contract to ensure nothing is overlooked, and the result is as intended. The following are just straight standard expectations and do not require a brain surgeon to understand them. It only takes professional and experienced workers to follow the directions.

Ask to see a sample of the tarps and drop cloths they use to protect your furnishings. Also, make sure who is responsible for moving any furniture both out of the way and back into its original place. Ask if they tape window panes and around trim work, and who is responsible for removing these strips when the job is complete.

The last thing you want to happen is damage to your treasured furnishings. Include these concerns in the contract: what kind of drop cloth material the crew uses, moving the furniture, and where do the workers clean up their tools.

The property being painted belongs to you, and you are entitled to know the names of each person on the work crew. Find out how many workers the job requires and then ask questions if that number changes without notice. Security is a constant issue when it comes to who is present and why. Call the contractor to verify any new people, or if one of them failed to show up for work.

Few things in life smell as refreshing as a new coat of paint and the experience seems to uplift the disposition of everyone in the family or business. When hiring a professional crew to manage this project just remember to keep it a business transaction so that it remains professional and not personal. It is your property, and your money being spent so make sure the contract states what details you want included.
