Looking for a New Jersey
Painting Contractor?
7 Great Sources for Finding
the Best Painting Contractors
 Quality New Jersey painting contractors are easier to find when you know where to look.
Below you will find the top 7 places we recommend (rated from good - to great - to the best):
#7 - Painting Trucks
If you keep seeing the same painting company truck in your neighborhood, consider it a good sign, because what it often means is that the painters are doing a good job, get more work through word of mouth, and as a result, keep coming back to do other projects in your area.
Besides, professionally marked painting vehicles can also help you quickly separate real painting contractors from moonlighters who are here today, gone tomorrow.
#6 - Yellow Pages
The high cost of Yellow Pages display ads often serves as a filter that leaves only serious New Jersey painting contractors who are truly committed to their businesses, and keeps everyone else out.
Plus, don't forget about the money-saving coupons that are often included with the listings!
#5 - Direct Mail
It takes time, effort and money to launch a direct mail campaign. But what does it mean to you, the homeowner?
Lets see:
First, established and financially sound painting companies are probably the only ones who will be willing or able to repeatedly
 contact you by mail, which means you can feel more comfortable paying that deposit and not worry about the painter running with your money.
Second, it's reasonable to expect that, after investing time, effort and money, painting contractors will show morediligence when it comes to following up, and will actually return your calls.
And third, receiving a direct mail piece in your mailbox pretty much guarantees that you will not waste your time callinga house painter only to find out that they don't serve your area.
#4 - Website
Searching the Internet for local painters and looking at their websites can be a great way to help you decide which house painting contractor to hire.
You can usually find out much more about the company you are considering from their website than from any ad - for example, information about the people who run the company and theservices they provide, see before/after project photos to get an idea of the work they do and read customer testimonialsto get a feeling of what kind of service you can expect.
#3 - Jobsite Signs and Neighborhood Flyers
 Oftentimes, house painting contractors will put up a lawn sign or distribute flyers in the same neighborhood, with the address of the property they are working on. That gives you a chance to drive by the house and see the final result, watch the painters at work or even talk to the owners if you happen to know them.
#2 - Paint Stores
Paint stores can be a really great source for finding the best New Jersey painting contractors. Simply ask the paint store clerks if there is someone they can recommend and they'll be happy to do that.
Besides, usually you can also find out a lot about the owner of the company you are considering for your project, about their work ethics and the people they hire, their customer satisfaction track record and much more! Just keep asking questions and you'll greatly reduce the chances of hiring the wrong contractor.
#1 - Referrals
We've covered a lot of great ways to find quality New Jersey painting contractors, but the best one is still a referral from a friend, neighbor or family member.
Not only do you get to learn about their overall experience with the contractor, how the work progressed, their concerns or regrets and so on, but you also have a chance to see the quality of the work itself.
After all, if a picture is worth a thousand words, then being able to see the final result "in person" is priceless.
