always have been taught to get more than one estimate.
In the past people would get multiple prices for a job and select a contractor based solely on price. Basing a service on price alone before it has been completed is a sure way of setting yourself up for a potential problem. Utilizing Quick Estimator as your benchmark price you are now able to receive quotes from local painting contractors and base your decision on solid information and the qualifications of the contractor, you choose, rather than the old fashion way of basing it just on price.
