I am also curious what people are paying painters per hour in labor fees for standard interior paint jobs.

Same thing with painters, etc. 4.

I am a contractor and If I work on your house and hire a painter who is a sub , and do not pay him the painter can file a lien .

Any recommendations for good roofers and exterior painters?

If you have a good plumber or painter, you might ask them too. 

Did your painter repaint the entire unit or just do touchups?

Hello,I am painting a house for a family member, as the previous painter that was hired to do so was cutting corners and not doing a thorough job.

Hello BP Family!  Can anyone recommend a contractor or company they have used previously to paint the exterior of a home?  Property is located in Fairfield County.  Thank you
