Selecting The Right Contractor For Commercial Painting Toronto

By Jody Leach


Anyone can pick a paint brush and call themselves a painter. There are many people in the market calling themselves painters, but are not licensed or qualified to perform good quality jobs. It is hence very important to make sure you settle for the right individual or company, to ensure you get a well painted project. When searching for companies specializing in commercial painting Toronto building owners and managers should observe the following factors first.

Locating prospective service providers is perhaps the first thing you will do. This can be achieved in a number of approaches, which include searching online and asking for word of mouth referrals. If you know of building owners and managers who have successfully painted their buildings, ask them to recommend the company they used. Follow up on some of these references and then settle on those that demonstrate ability of successfully handling your project.

After receiving a number of prospective companies, ensure you evaluate their suitability for your project. Consider asking for references of past clients from the located companies. Follow up on some of these references so as to know what to expect if you are to settle for that specific service provider. If possible, personally visit some of these buildings to see the quality of painting done.

Bonding and insurance covered services are of vast importance especially in a business environment. Bonding means that the company has secures additional funding to cover you should your property get damaged or a worker injured. Bonding gives you an instant access to funds without the need of waiting for an insurance settlement. Similarly, depending on the scope of your project, you should make sure you settle for a firm that has a suitable insurance policy cover.

Bonding and insurance covered services are also very important. Bonding means that there is money set aside to pay you almost immediately should there be a damage to property. Ensure the company you choose has suitable worker compensation and general liability insurance covers which are in line with the scope of your project.

Insurance and bonding are other critical elements when painting in a commercial environment. A suitable insurance cover will protect you and your home from any potential damages or injuries. Ask the prospective service provider to provide you with a copy of their general liability and worker compensation insurance policy certificates. Check if the cover provided is suitable for your needs.

Cost of services vary from company to company. Comparing estimates and detailed quotes from at least three companies will help you to determine who not only charges reasonably, but also provides excellent services. A reputable company will consider checking the scope of your project before issuing a detailed quote.

When selecting a painting contractor, make sure you make an informed choice. The type of service provider will determine the quality of work done and whether or not there will be need for a repeat job. Check factors such as cost of services, licensing, insurance and bonding, reputation in the industry and period of project completion.
