Average Cost Of Painters
Affordable House Painting
Painting the exterior of a building of any kind needs a little careful planning as to materials, scaffolding,ladders, colors of paints and materials. The paint job can cost a great deal of money. So you want to get what you pay if you employ a painting contractor, a good solid durable finish. Most buildings need painting every 4 or 5 years, sometimes less depending on workmanship,materials and what time of year the work was carried out and the weather conditions.Affordable house painting
The cheapest and most Affordable House Painting of all without any doubt is DIY that of course is if you don't mind climbing a scaffold or ladders.
The most costly item when doing a exterior paint job is the labor, so if you do it yourself all you will need to pay for is the materials. A easy way to paint your exterior if you do decide to do it yourself is to tackle the job in easy stages, paint the front one weekend,the back or sides the next weekend and so on. The great advantage of working like this is you can pick days when the weather is set fair and no chance of rain or other bad painting conditions that will effect the durability of the paint work. Paint work will blister if painted in wet or damp conditions as water will become trapped between paint layers and will vaporize in the heat of the sun causing a blister on the finished painted surface this will crack and let in rain water onto the bare exposed timber. Before long rot sets in. so pick dry weather conditions. Ok so you don't fancy climbing ladders or scaffolds and getting smothered in paint on your free weekends. There are quiet a few. options left to you.Affordable house painting
In the summer months painters can be found down virtually every street in town, As you casually walk past one of these houses that is being redecorated, take a close look and if you are impressed with the workmanship, talk to one of the painters and ask if they do private work. Well I have been a painter for many years and this would be music to their ears. Tell them about the job,and would they give you a price. If all is agreed make arrangements for the work to start. The big advantage with this option is that you will be cutting out the middleman (painting contractor) and so the paint job cost should be appreciably lower.Affordable house painting
If approaching painters in this way does not appeal to you there are hundreds if not thousands of on-line painting companies to choose from. I have no idea what your painting budget is and what to you is affordable. The decorating profession is very competitive so I would assume there would not be too great a differential between them. Don't take the first estimate shop around a little.
