How To Choose a Painter in Minot

When deciding on a painting service, keep these key considerations in mind.

• Cost: Get price ranges from at least three contractors. Use caution if one provider's estimates are much lower than the rest.
• Guarantees: Ensure that you get all guarantees in writing and that you understand the duration and scope of coverage.
• Paint types: Your painting company can walk you through the different paint options and their pros and cons to help you pick the best type for your needs. Certain paint types, for instance, resist weather damage more effectively or are better for the environment.
• Qualifications: Painters in North Dakota must have a state contractor license. A Class D license should cover most residential painting jobs. All painters should be properly bonded and insured, especially if they’re working on a ladder or using power equipment. If your home was built before 1978, and you're concerned about the presence of lead, consider looking for a contractor who is licensed by the EPA to work with lead-based paint.
• Reputation and reviews: Ask family, friends, and neighbors for references, or use the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to review companies you’re considering. You can also find customer ratings on sites such as Google Reviews or Trustpilot.

How Much Does Painting Cost in Minot?

The price to paint your home will depend on your home’s size, the paint you choose, and the time of year. Painters generally charge more in the busy summer season. The typical cost of both interior and exterior home painting in Minot is $0.69 to $2.77 per square foot. Most homes have more interior space compared to exterior space, which results in higher indoor painting costs compared to exterior painting costs. For a 2,000-square-foot home, expect to pay about $3,460 to paint the exterior, and anywhere from $1,384 to $5,537 to paint the interior. Some painters in Minot may offer alternative rates of $12.85 to $21.42 per hour. Bundling exterior and interior painting services together may mean lower overall costs than if you'd split them into separate projects.
