Why Hire A Professional Painting Company

Why You Should Hire A Professional Painting Company

Everyone has some kind of painting to do around their home or business and deciding who is going to do it comes down to a few choices:

  • Do it yourself
  • A friend has a "guy"
  • Hire a professional
These choices all come with pro's and con's of course and we will review a few of them here to help you make a better decision

Do it yourself: 

Doing it yourself is always a choice but it comes with a few issues and mainly it is time. do you really want to spend your minimal free time painting? Some people love it and there is no question, others could take that free time and use it to spend quality time with their family or use it to do what they do best. 

  • Your free time is used
  • It may cost more in the long run
  • Quality may or may not be adequate
  • Knowledge of paint coatings
  • No relationship with the paint vendors
  • Completing the project on time

If I am spending time doing things I have no idea about I would be much better off doing my work which I can earn money to simply just pay a painter. That time your painting your not only losing time but possibly money as well.

Also, you may not get the professional or timely results a professional company such as Amato Painting

A friend has a "guy"

We all know someone always has a guy who does side work or is a jack of all trades, you have seen their work and know the price is low but this comes with some issues for sure.
  • Will they show up as promised
  • Will they come each day
  • Are they really insured fully?
  • Their knowledge of paint coatings is limited
  • Is there really any warranty
  • Will they even finish the project?
So the issue really is, with that lower price you are certainly losing things, if something would happen you will not have a warranty, they probably do not have a relationship with the paint manufacturer who can assist in any matters.

The insurance issue is certainly one not to look past, liability insurance is not expensive, workers compensation is and if they have employees you need to make sure they have this.

The difference in price from this to a professional painter you are gaining many things that we will go over below.

The professional painter

The professional painter, some have given painters a bad name and some are simply awesome

  • Knowledge of paint coatings
  • Experience in all matters related to paint and applications
  • Resources to solve and correct many issues
  • Trained staff, employees who have a vested interest in your project
  • Timely completion of your project
Some of the cons using a professional painter would be you need to check if they are using their own employees or is there another company coming to do your painting work.
This is so important if they are subcontracting their work out, how are they training those painters, the only thing they care about is collecting the check, good luck getting them to come back for any issues.
It will cost you typically more than any other solution above in the short term, but the long term actual cost will certainly be less.

Keep them

Once you find a great reliable painting company, make sure to hold onto them, they are certainly hard to find, we recommend to our clients to be very open with communicating with us so we know what you expect, your deadlines, past experiences and any needs that may arise before, during or after a project.
