Good painting decisions begin before the first bucket is opened. Use this guide as a practical starting point, then confirm the details of your own building before purchasing or beginning work.
Check whether the scope is identical
One quotation may include ceilings, doors and repairs while another covers walls only. Confirm the measured areas and work description first.
Compare product specifications
Look for paint type, finish and intended application. “Paint included” is not enough information for a serious comparison.
Check preparation and number of coats
A lower quote can omit crack repairs, priming or additional coats that the wall actually requires.
Read exclusions and payment stages
Clarify access equipment, moving furniture, cleaning, transport, colour changes and payment milestones before selecting a contractor.
Practical next step
Every building is different. Share your location, wall condition and project type with Filadephia Paints so the product, quantity and preparation advice can be matched to your actual job.
