Signing a Contract with an Orlando Painter

After you've located the Orlando painter that you believe is the one you want for your project it's time to talk about a contract. A contract should include a detailed outline of the job stating exactly what work is to be done, how it will be done and the paint that will be used along with the cost of materials and labor and an agreed upon payment schedule. It should also include all the painter's contact information as well as his contractor's license number. He should also attach copies of any necessary insurance policies. You'll also want a date for completion of the job.

Find out if the painter includes a guarantee for his work if there is a problem with fading, chipping or peeling within a specific amount of time. If there is one make sure it's also in writing that the painter will fix the problem at little or no cost to you. While the paint itself may come with an extensive warranty, it will not include the labor cost of having the job redone.

Remember that you want to hire a painter you can trust. He may be working when you're not around and it's difficult to keep an eye on what he's doing. Once the final coat is on you wont be able to determine if the surface was properly prepared or primed or how many coats of paint were actually applied. Hiring a reliable Orlando painter is just as important as hiring any other contractor to come into your home and you want the best one for the job.
