I’ve gotten a few estimates from different contractors. Why do the prices vary so much?
If all of your quotes are from honest, reputable, insured contractors, the major difference in price is usually directly related to the amount of surface preparation. This “prep” work, when done properly, can account for as much as 70% of the entire job. Painters can cut the cost of a job by skipping these vital steps. Since surfaces are covered by paint, you might not notice “short cuts” until there is a problem. Return to the top of the page.
