[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professional painters also want to sell you the paint, too. Are they certified, licensed, and insured? Never hire a contractor that isn’t all of the above.[/quote] Certified licensed and insured? Certified in what? Making shit up on the internet? *never* hire a painter who isn’t certified, licensed, insured? Wtf? I would imagine the number of times people check the insurance status of any painter can be counted on one hand - let alone whatever certification you value.[/quote] All professional contractors should be bonded and insured. Professional painters can get certified in various skills to demonstrate to clients that they know what they are doing. Did you just pick up some stuff at Lowe’s after high school graduation and start charging whatever you want? You’ll get away with this with inexperienced clients but people will complain. If you really want to earn a living as a painter, it’s going to take more effort than you are putting in here. Most small businesses fail because of predictable problems.[/quote]
