Why Low Prices Usually Mean Low Quality
Choosing the cheapest painting bid in the Greater Seattle area often means paying more later in repairs, repaints, and frustration. Amsberry Painting explains how ultra-low prices usually come from cutting corners – rushing prep, using low-quality products, and hiring less-experienced painters – which leads to poor, short-lived results (especially in the rainy Pacific Northwest).
Great Price! How Much Did That
Paint Job End Up Costing You?
Low Prices = Low Quality
And Zero Confidence
How often have you heard the expression, “You get what you pay for?”
Everyone loves a bargain. But in some things, such as when hiring a Greater Seattle area residential or commercial painting contractor, bargains may signal the opposite of quality.
How many times have you seen a shabby building with fading paint? In many cases, those buildings aren’t decades old – in fact, they may have been painted within the last couple of years! Especially here in the Pacific Northwest, where home exteriors need paint that holds up to the rainy climate.
But not every painting contractor is willing to put in the work.
That’s where Amsberry Painting comes in.
Lowest Price Usually Equals Cutting Corners
There’s competitive pricing, and then there’s settling for the lowest-quality work because the price tag is the cheapest.
Most residential and commercial property owners focus only on the paint itself and how it looks. But there are many steps involved in a paint job, all of which need to be completed with expert precision for a beautiful, long-lasting result.
If you go with the lowest bidder, well, then these steps often get rushed – or even overlooked altogether.
At Amsberry Painting, we’ve touched up countless projects that were done the first time incorrectly. Are you a DIY enthusiast who bit off more than you could chew with your interior or exterior painting? Have you hired a company because they offered the lowest price? No matter your circumstances, we take on a wide range of projects in the Greater Seattle area.
Not-So-Obvious Examples Of Corner-Cutting
When you’re searching for a residential or commercial painting contractor and one offer seems significantly lower than the others, you should ask yourself, Where are they cutting corners?
Usually, it’s in ways that aren’t so obvious, such as:
- Hiring less-experienced painters
- Rushing or skipping proper preparation
- Using lower-quality paints and equipment
That low price tag usually ends up costing property owners more in the long run. If you pay a lower upfront price, you’ll likely need to repaint in just a few short years (or even sooner!).
You might also be unsatisfied with the initial job and need to have it fixed up. And your chosen painter may not accommodate (or at least not without charging more).
