How much does a licensed and insured painter cost in Norwalk?

Rates vary with the job. Interior repaints often run from about $2 to $6 per square foot of floor area, and a typical exterior can run several thousand dollars depending on size, height and prep. Insured contractors may cost somewhat more than uninsured ones, but you are paying for protection. Get at least three written quotes.

How often does a house need repainting?

Exteriors usually need paint every 5 to 10 years, depending on siding, sun exposure and paint quality. Interior walls last longer, often 5 to 10 years, and sooner in kitchens, bathrooms and rooms with kids or pets.

What should I expect during a paint job?

Expect a walkthrough and estimate, then furniture moving and masking, surface prep (scraping, patching, sanding, priming), two coats, and cleanup. Most single rooms take one to two days, and a full house interior takes several days to a week or more.

How can I judge a painter's quality?

Ask for recent local references and photos of finished work. Look at how they describe prep, since most paint failures come from poor prep. Check that the estimate is detailed, the insurance is current, and the warranty is in writing.

What "licensed and insured" means for a painter

A licensed and insured painter is registered to work in the state and carries coverage that protects you if something goes wrong. In practice that means general liability insurance for damage to your home, such as a drip on hardwood or a ladder through a window, and workers' compensation for injuries on the job. Without it, a fall from your roof line can become your insurance claim.

What to check before you hire

Ask for a current certificate of insurance, and have it sent directly from the insurer or agent.
Confirm the license or registration number with the state, and check that it is active.
For homes built before 1978, ask whether the crew is lead-safe certified.
Get a written estimate that lists prep work, number of coats, paint brand and line, and who handles cleanup.
