The residential painting industry is quite large and unregulated. There are no licenses required to call yourself a painter and start painting homes. This is both good and bad. This means with a little experience, and only a handful of tools; anyone who loves the residential painting trade can venture out on their own and paint houses. This seems like a great idea to the apprentice painter, or retired handyman. However, this also creates a problem for homeowners who may not have the right knowledge about the trade itself when it comes to hiring the right person for the job. If you’re unsure on whom to hire for your residential painting project, refer to our blog entry on the paint industry. Repainting an entire home is a lot of work, and requires proper organization, communication and scheduling. It also requires people power. Hiring the right painting company can be tricky. If you have any questions please feel free to call or e-mail Brian at QPG Ltd. We’re always willing to help potential clients in making the right decision. Whether your buying a new home, building a custom home or selling a home, professionally re-painting your space is a wise investment, and when done properly can greatly increase the value of your property, and more importantly; refresh your living space and bring colour to your world.
There are many reasons why you should professionally repaint your home. As stated above, repainting an entire home greatly increases the value of the home and brings new life to an old space. Here are just a few good reasons why you should consider a professional residential repaint:
Well, if you are selling your home and there is time available before its listed, we highly recommend booking a professional residential paint company to paint your home before any staging or photographs take place; it is best to plan ahead. Most professional painting companies will be booked, and not all will accept last minute bookings. There are many professional residential painting companies who can accommodate last minute bookings. Gather 2-3 quotes and select the best fit.
If you are buying a home, its good to have a professional residential paint company already arranged. If you have the opportunity to show the painting company the property before you gain possession, we strongly encourage that. This will allow the painting company enough time to put together an estimate and schedule the work. It is ideal if the painters can begin and complete the work before any furniture is moved into the home. This allows the paint company freedom and ease to complete the project in a timely and organized fashion.
Home renovations can be stressful, and a lot of people seem to be over budget and exhausted by the time the project gets to the painting stage. To avoid any problems or stress, it’s a wise decision to have the painters hired months before the paint is ready. It’s also smart to collaborate with the painters and organize a schedule to efficiently manage the project. Most professional painters will want to prime the drywall immediately after its mudded and sanded, and some will want to prime the trim packages before install. These are just a few small details that should be organized with the painters long before the renovation is ready. A professional paint job on your new renovation is the crown jewel of the whole project. So don’t cheap out on the paint company, and work with the painters to ease the process.
When it comes to hiring the right professional residential painting company for your repaint, it can be hard. There are many choices out there. From all of our experience over the years in the residential paint industry, its best to obtain quotes through referral. If you know someone personally who has dealt with a reputable, professional paint company it’s recommended to call them. Here at Quasar, we understand the power of referral networks and word of mouth. We’ve built our entire business on referrals, and learning how to earn referrals from clients. This is not an easy task, it requires lots of communication, planning and project and management. If you are seeking quotes from multiple paint companies, make sure to ask them questions regarding their process, timeline, schedule and products. We wrote a blog about whom to hire, and it’s worth a read.
Quasar Painting Group works in many neighbourhoods throughout the Golden Horseshoe. We do the bulk of our residential painting in Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville and Waterdown. The Burlington and Waterdown areas are growing quickly, with great numbers of homes being built, bought and sold each year. It’s important to know your neighbourhood, and what the value of a home is within that neighbourhood. Residential painting in Burlington and Oakville is great because both of those cities are close to the lake. We have painted many homes along the Burlington Lakeshore and it’s always a pleasure looking out the window and seeing water. We began painting most of our homes in the Waterdown area in 2011 & 2012. Waterdown is growing like crazy with many homes that will need residential repaints. If you live in the Ancaster, Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville, Waterdown or surrounding areas, we would love to meet you and quote your next painting project. There is no job too big or small for us.
