COLORS

Creative Painters offers a color consultation for all of our customers. Please ask any of our staff if you are interested. If we are matching the existing color, we will match the color on the first day of the job. We will need you to be available to ok the color selection. If you would like to choose the color yourself we can provide you with the paint manufactures color samples. Be certain to view color samples in the same light as that in which the paint will be applied.

FOREMAN

The first day of the job you will meet the foreman. The foreman is the most experienced painter on the crew. Please be sure to direct any questions during the job directly to the foreman.

WINDOWS

Although new paint dries to the touch with in a few hours, it does not fully cure for about two weeks. To avoid stuck windows please make sure the painters are able to open and close the windows before the end of the job.

DOORS

Doors should be left open as long as possible to allow them to dry. Alkyd (oil) takes longer to dry than latex (acrylic). It is important alkyd painted doors not be closed for at least 8 hours.

PAYMENT

A deposit is taken at the time agreements are signed. Remaining payment is due in full the day the job is completed. We ask that you please be considerate of this request. Checks should be made out to Creative Painters in the amount stated on your proposal plus any additionally requested work during the job. We are also able to take Visa and Mastercard. These are taken over the phone. Receipts will be mailed to you after processing.

CUSTOMER EVALUATION

You will be asked to complete a customer rating sheet when the job is finished. Your written feedback is very important to everyone here at Creative Painters. In particular, the crew receives a bonus on your evaluation. The completed form can be given to the foreman.

PHONE FOLLOW UP

We will contact you during your job to discuss how the job is being performed. Again, your candor is appreciated.

WEATHER

No oil paints can be applied on damp surfaces. No acrylic primers can be applied on damp surfaces. If weather prevents us from working on your home we will return on the next suitable day. Certain things can be done in wet or damp weather with no ill effects. Many times we may want to pressure-wash a house or begin preparation of the surfaces on damp days. On occasion, we may call ahead to see if we can wash your home ahead of schedule. This will help keep the schedule on track.

WASHING

If we are painting the exterior of your home we may pressure wash prior to painting. This may take place a day or two prior to your scheduled start date.

LEAD

All houses built before 1978 have the risk of containing lead paint. If your home was built before 1978 you will be given a pamphlet entitled "Protect Your Family From Lead In Your Home." Creative Painters has been certified in lead safe work practices. This is a curriculum put out jointly by EPA and HUD. Please note that this does not certify us for lead abatement. In addition, Creative Painters can not in good faith test your home for lead. If you would like to have your home tested and need assistance locating a certified test facility we can help you locate one.

Price

  • Beat the Spring Rush
PLEASE BE ADVISED: Prices vary different times of the year. For example: the most inexpensive time of the year for interior painting is December through the end of January. These months are also the least expensive time of the year to Receive and Schedule exterior jobs for the upcoming season. Although we can't complete exterior projects in the winter we're able to estimate.

Most of our projects run between eight dollars and fifty dollars a month for ten years - which makes your investment an incredible Value!
