Painting in Monroe — FAQ

Before Hiring a Painting Pro in Monroe

Use this checklist to vet contractors before signing a contract.

• Ask whether they are EPA Lead-Safe Certified (RRP rule) for homes built before 1978

  Federal law requires lead-safe practices when disturbing paint in pre-1978 homes. Non-certified contractors face fines up to $37,500/day.

• Request the specific paint brand and product line they will use

  There is a huge difference between contractor-grade paint and premium lines (Benjamin Moore Regal, Sherwin-Williams Duration). Get it in the contract.

• Confirm their prep process — scraping, sanding, priming, caulking

  80% of a paint job's longevity comes from surface preparation. Painters who skip prep deliver a job that peels within 2-3 years.

• Ask how many coats are included and whether primer is separate

  A quality job includes a coat of primer plus two finish coats. Some contractors bid one coat knowing it will look thin.

• Verify Home Improvement Contractor license with your municipality

  New York counties require Home Improvement Contractor registration. Check with your local clerk's office or building department.

• Confirm general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage

  Ask for a certificate of insurance (COI) naming you as additionally insured. Workers' comp protects you if a worker is injured on your property.

• Get 2-3 written estimates that itemize labor, materials, and timeline

  Lump-sum quotes hide details. Itemized estimates let you compare apples to apples and catch hidden costs.

• Check permit requirements with Town of Monroe Building Department ((845) 783-1900)

  Contact town hall for permit requirements. Monroe NY is distinct from Monroe CT.

• Ask for 3 recent local references and actually call them

  Ask references specifically: Did the job finish on time and on budget? Were there surprises? Would you hire them again?
