I totally agree with you all. Professional painters can do it perfectly and also advice on the colors and its combinations. We need not to perform the painting every year, they do it in such a way that it would be long lasting at an affordable cost. I have a great post to read on painting and professionals.

my experience is that homeowners are certainly capable of doing a good job painting their exteriors.  what they lack however is the patience it takes to not cut corners and to take their time.  the result is a paint job that doesn't last and in many cases does not look good.  In the end they have spent a lot of time, a lot of money and have a paint job that will last 1/2 as long.

yeah exactly look at a question and answer we got from a client and responded too...


Q: "Chris, help! I'm in need of painting knowledge. I tried a do-it yourself interior home renovation painting my condo. I couldn't even get the first room done. I spilt paint everywhere; splashed drips on the floor, uneven cut lines with tape and don't have the patience. It's a catastrophe, what should I do?" -Kyle Robertson

A: Believe it or not this scenario happens quite often, so don't feel ashamed. Due to the misconception that painting is easy. Because of the big-box stores advertising campaign to "do-it yourself" has falsely identified the painting industry. House painting is a skilled trade and takes years of practice to acquire professional results that you were attempting to complete.

Most people tend to 'bite of more than they can chew' and end up with a huge mess and headache. Leave it to a professional painter with years of service instead of "saving" that little extra.

Exterior painting is a major task on most houses and prep work is tough.  Most homeowners do not have the patience to do it right and will cut corners to speed things up.  Most homeowners if you give them a bid and show them the estimated man hours are going to think twice about doing it themselves.  Those that will do it themselves probably didn't have the money to pay someone in the first place.  Only other group are those anal retentive homeowner perfectionists that like to be the resident handyman and do everything themselves "for fun".

Always hire a professional. We have found that by the time you purchase supplies, tools, and paints, you will see that hiring a painting company was the more logical choice. A professional painting company will also guarantee their work. You can call them to fix any mistakes instead of finding the will to fix your own mistakes.

That's a good article.  I think some people just don't value painting as a profession so they wont hire it to professionals.  I don't try to fight that battle anymore and know that there is enough people out there who do hiring a professional and those are the people I focus on...

To get the best quality i would hire a professional and it will be less stressful for you.  researching a painting company can be difficult. You can choose to go with cheapest bid but, hiring under qualified workers can often lead to huge mess and bad quality work. I wouldn't go and hire a giant company either for painting homes a lot of time bigger companies just sub work out and add 10%-30% on top of subs bid. i suggest find the middle guy on your bids because he will be the most affordable painter and should finish your job with great quality.Always do as much research as u can before you make your final decision.
