The best Ottawa Painting Company around!

First let's examine what we're talking about here. We're talking about laying our floor protection throughout the entire area. Doing this room by room would be extremely expensive. So all the furniture must be placed in the middle of the room for ease of execution as well as to eliminate trip hazards. You have to remember that the crews are looking up the whole time they are painting the ceiling, not down.

Then, all cuts must be done to all angles (where a wall meets a ceiling) and corners, where two wall meet, as well as at the baseboards and window / door trim are.  

Common question: Do you minus the windows and doors from the board-footage of the walls? While that is a valid question, the answer is no. The reason for this is not actually not to reduce the time estimating, as you may have thought. If that door or window weren't there, the area could be rolled over in a matter of 15 seconds. Instead, a painter must take several minutes to cut the area around the window with precision and then roll around the window. Labour being the most expensive component of a painting project, these areas are actually more expensive than if it were just straight wall, so these areas are not discounted. And while we don't do this, some contractors charge more for cutting around these areas. This is built into our general price. This paragraph is not to be confused with painting of the actual window trim or casing itself.  

The next step is to paint all the trim, including the doors and window trim as well as the frames as well if they've been included in your quote. You'll find that some painters will do the trim first so that they don't have to cut the trim and the wall paint will go over. This, also, is a generally accepted practice.

The average price to paint a house in Ottawa is $6000. Of course this varies from one home to the next.

We have done small painting projects for $400 and we've done large painting projects in the six figures.  

Painting is one of those trades with a low barrier to entry. What does this mean? This means that anyone with a ladder and paint brushes can come into your home claiming to be an Ottawa Painting Company.

Some of these one woman/man shows, while they may be affordable, may also come with inherent risks. When someone does not stand behind a brand, they have nothing to lose, there will always be work for a cheap painter and they know it. So what happens? These people may not show up for work, they may do a lousy job if they had a good night, they may cut corners if they feel like it or, worst case scenario, they may take something from your home.

While these things (other than the last one) may not be so bad, some of the consequences we've observed are:

• You took time off work for nothing.
• You may have to repaint if they don't do a good job (costing you double).
• You will likely have to wait a while in order to book a reputable painter.
• You may delay the other phases of your project
• You will likely have to live in your haphazardly painted home for a while until you get someone else in.

In contrast, the team at PaintBoyz has worked very hard to create a brand name that everyday people can trust and count on to meet their needs. This cannot be done by letting people down and disappointing people. We make promises, stand by them and that is the reason we've become recognized by local Home builders and and General contractors as the reliable option for Finishing.
