Both Google and Yelp list (mostly) independent reviews from real costumers. Yes, it’s possible to “game” them, but Nigel has some tips on what to look for: If a company has no online review profile, this can be a red flag. Beware of brokerage sites which offer to make referrals. Often these companies make money based on the number of referrals, not the jobs booked, so their recommendations may be based on little more than a background check on the owner.

Use soap and water to clean up latex paints, and paint thinner to clean up alkyd paints. Clean your brushes and gear right after painting. Do not ever pour paint thinner or excess paint down the drain or onto the ground—this is a very serious source of ground-water pollution. Keep old paint and solvents in an old sealed paint can, and dispose of it at a toxic-waste collection site.

Choosing the right color for a room can be tricky because it impacts your entire interior aesthetic. No one wants to make a costly mistake and then have to live with it for the next couple of years. This is why many professional painting companies have an in-house paint color consultant on their team to help clients make the best color choices that are in line with their tastes, lifestyle, the purpose of the room, and lighting. They help you find the best look for every room based on its size and shape and the mood you are trying to invoke based on color psychology and color theory. This saves time and money on your painting project. While some companies offer free virtual color consultation for clients, others charge anywhere between $50 to $400 for this service.

But make sure you assess the full scope of the project (and get free quotes from painting professionals) before you take the leap.
• New work or repair? If a remodeling contractor leaves smoothly finished drywall, prep work is eliminated, and the painting can begin. Where walls or siding need a lot of scraping, spackling and sanding, the same-size project can take twice as long.
