Painting contractors prepare and paint interior and exterior surfaces to protect them and refresh your home's look. Good preparation such as cleaning, scraping, patching and priming makes a paint job last.
Common painting services include:
Hire a painter when paint is peeling, faded or chalky, before selling, or when you want a color change. Wallpaper and drywall repair also have their own categories.

A painting contractor protects floors and furniture, prepares surfaces by cleaning, scraping, sanding, patching and priming, then applies paint or stain to walls, ceilings, trim, cabinets, siding and decks.
Many companies do both. Exterior work needs weather planning and preparation for surfaces exposed to sun and moisture, while interior work focuses on protection and clean lines. Ask about experience with the specific surfaces you need painted.
Compare written estimates that list surfaces, preparation steps, number of coats, paint products and cleanup. For homes built before 1978, ask about EPA lead-safe practices, and confirm the contractor carries insurance.
Cost depends on the area painted, surface condition and preparation, the number of colors and coats, paint quality, ceiling heights, trim detail, and for exteriors, access and the number of stories.
Choose colors in advance, move furniture away from walls, remove wall decor and outlet covers if asked, and clear a path for equipment. For exterior work, trim plants near the house and move outdoor furniture.
