"This was the best home improvement/maintenance experience I have had, and I have already recommended Mario and his crew to friends. They were extremely easy to work with and did an extremely thorough job. The required prep work on our turn-of-the-century bungalow was extensive, including replacing and repairing difficult-to-find and difficult-to-repair siding. They did it meticulously. I made a change in paint color part way through, and Mario rolled with it (of course, I did pay for the change, which is only fair!). They were always respectful (in fact, they replaced our porch chairs each day, once they realized we used them at night!). I have since noticed a few small things to fix, but I am confident that they will return to do the touch ups. Also, I had gotten 5 other bids for this job, so I am confident that Genuine Coatings was an excellent value for the quality and quantity of the work they did. I strongly recommend!"

Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.
We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.
Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.
Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.
