Always get 3 or 4 quotes, they will vary by thousands, I painted a house awhile back for $6800 and the owner had been also quoted $13000. I have heard of absolutely outrageous quotes at times. I get alot of work because I have a good but reasonable rate

yes so true it does pay to get as many as you can get as there is way to many Cowboys out there that are not qualified and certed.to many that have just picked up a brush and think they can paint.you can always ask to see previous work they have done also to look at the workmanship.but yeah the more quotes the better :)

I'm painting our house at the moment, its a two bedroom house, the few quotes I got was $3000- $4000 but decided to give it a go myself, I haven't done much painting mainly have just helped out painting a few houses in the past. Im amazed how little it costs if you do it yourself.I'm nearly finished an so far have only had to buy one ten litre paint and a four litre primer paint. All you need is a paint scraper, scrap off as much old paint as you can and then sand back with about a 80 grit sand paper,I'm just sticking to white water based paints from reseneso far spent under $400 house looks great :-) good luck

no it doesn't but i guess its just a thing to have so a client feels safe and hasreassurance !if a job goes bad is that were they go is through master painters to complain if they get no where with the company! where as if it was cowboy down the road does a crap job on the house. its harder to track them as they not under the "master Painters"
