Choosing a Great Residential Exterior Painter in Coquitlam

Choosing a great professional painter for either interior or exterior residential painting in Coquitlam should not be overly difficult. In today’s blog we will give you some hints on how to find one.

Use Google

If you do not have a personal referral, then first look online for a residential painter in your area. Look at the reviews and read some of them. This is called “social proof,” and it would be near impossible to fake a lot of good reviews on Google. In addition, it is difficult to remove a poor review, so if you find a lot of good reviews, then it is likely a serious business, worthy of your consideration.

Website

Read the painter’s website—if he/she has one—and see what area of coverage they have. Most businesses based on the Lower Mainland, work throughout the Lower Mainland including Coquitlam. You can always call them and ask them if they are comfortable working in Coquitlam.

Free Estimate

Let a painter come to your place and look at it and give you a free estimate. Almost all will give you a free, no-obligation quote. It is helpful for them to see your place. For exterior painting, they need to see what colour it is, what kind of shape the existing paint is in, and also the shape and design of the house.

For example, if your roof line has high peaks, that work is harder and more dangerous, and is going to figure into the quote. If the existing paint is in rough shape, a certain amount of time will be needed to clean it off with power washing. Also, it is always easier to cover a lighter colour with a darker colour than vice versa. And for you, allowing the painter to come for an estimate will give you a feel for what the business is like to work with. Are they pleasant? Professional? Punctual?
