The Difference Between Residential and Commercial Painting
A paint job’s a paint job, right? Not necessarily. There are different things to consider when you’re having your business painted than when you’re having your home painted, and there are different services offered by your painting contractor for both.
A Quality Assurance Program from Your Painters

Make Sure Your Paint Job Comes With A Warranty
Things happen. Paint chips, peels, and blisters - but it shouldn’t. So, if your paint starts to show signs of wear and tear after less than a few years, you want a painting contractor who’s there to cover the damage and make sure your walls are as good as new, and stay that way.
Power Wash Before You Paint
Power washing is a necessity before your home’s exterior is painted. It is vital to get all that build up the house develops over time off in order to paint on a clean, smooth surface. Good thing power washing is just one more thing your painting contractor can take care of for you.
Painting for Property Managers
When you’re a property manager, you don’t just have your own home to choose paint for, you could have anywhere from 20 to 100 homes, each with a different owner or renter to please. It’s a good thing your painting contractor has the experience and the know-how to keep all the owners or renters informed and happy throughout the paint job.

What to Know Before a Painting Estimate

Removing Rotted Wood
