[quote=Anonymous]You should take a look at Angie's List or any other similar type of program and then get 3 bids for painters who have worked in your area. Painting costs seem to vary wildly in the DMV area based on past threads. You may also want to post on your apartment or condo's board for referrals from current residents. And talk to the building management in case they know anyone. Also, think about what is a deal-breaker for you -- stray marks on the ceiling/walls where there is a color change, face plates removed before painting and painted separately (not painted over), how will the windows be painted (so they can be opened later or not?), etc. Those are 3 that will slow down painters but you also need to point them out if they will bug you. Most people can care less about these issues but for me they're big.[/quote]
