Before you sign

How to hire a house painter in Wilmington

1

Ask exactly what prep is included: pressure washing, scraping, caulking, priming.

2

Specify the paint brand and line in the contract, not just 'premium paint'.

3

Two coats should be standard on exteriors and color changes.

4

Check that the crew is insured; ladders and roofs are where accidents happen.

Good to know

House Painter questions, answered

How often should a house be repainted?

Exteriors every 5 to 10 years depending on sun, siding and paint quality. Interiors whenever you want a change.

Does the weather matter?

Yes. Most exterior paints need temperatures above about 50°F and no rain for a day or more. A good painter watches the forecast.

Should I buy the paint myself?

Usually not. Painters get contractor pricing and know which lines perform. Pick the color, let them buy the paint.
