What should I check before comparing quotes?
If your quote is below this range: check whether prep work — sanding, patching, priming, and surface cleaning — is included. Prep is often 40–60% of a quality paint job and is the first thing cut from low quotes. If your quote is above this range: ask for a per-room or per-surface breakdown. Confirm whether trim, ceilings, doors, and closets are included or quoted separately.
