Poor painting services may cost you money and frustration. Not knowing industry standards and using unqualified contractors may cause damage to your property or delays in the project.
Here are key tips on how to ensure that you get quality and long-lasting results.
- Registration
When choosing an interior painting contractor, do confirm whether that they are a registered service provider and if they hold a valid licence. A valid rewgistration or licence certificate will affirm their standards and ensures they have the skills, experience and financial capacity to deliver quality painting services.
- Qualification
All the qualified painters must have at least Certificate III in Painting and Decorating or an equivalent qualification. The relevant qualification provides a trade outcome in painting and decorating for residential and commercial painters. In addition to Cert III, it is possible to master their knowledge with Certificate IV or participate in courses that teach specific techniques.
- Experience
All the painting companies declare their past projects in their websites and on their Facebook pages. By going through their previous record and reading proven reviews, you can have a glimpse of their expertise and customer satisfaction. Professional interior painters will also let you know if they do the kind of painting job, you want them to do. Are they into the interior and exterior painting, single or multi-storey homes, newly built homes and apartments, house extensions or commercial painting services?
- References of Their Experience
Ask for references. A right painting contractor should not have any hesitation in providing you with recommendations. Some of the painting contractors will give you reference even before you ask for it. This will help you in reaching a matured and wise decision.
- Quality of Materials
Using quality paints saves you time and money. Quality paints have the best coverage, durability and ease of working. If painting job has completed with high quality and using premium paints, you only need to paint your house once every five years instead of every second year which saves a lot of money.
We highly recommend professional colours as their quality is good and they also have environmentally friendly paints available.
