Common Painting Questions From Allentown, PA Homeowners

Should I get multiple painting estimates in Allentown?
Yes. Quotes in the Allentown area can vary widely for identical work. Getting several written estimates costs you nothing and gives you leverage plus a clear view of the market rate.
Are painting contractors in Allentown licensed and insured?
Contractor licensing in Pennsylvania runs through the Pennsylvania Attorney General — Home Improvement Contractors, where you can verify any company's license before hiring. Also confirm liability insurance and ask for proof - reputable Allentown companies provide it without hesitation.
What warranty should I expect on painting work in Allentown?
Expect two layers: a manufacturer warranty on materials and a workmanship warranty from the company itself. Get both in writing from any Allentown provider, including what is covered, for how long, and who to call.
What insurance should a Allentown painting company carry?
At minimum: general liability insurance and, if the company has employees, workers' compensation. Ask any Allentown provider for a certificate of insurance and confirm it is current - without it, an on-site injury or property damage can become your problem.
