Quality That Lasts

When the economy starts declining, contractors start cutting their prices to keep busy. The problem is that when they cut costs, sometimes their quality goes downhill too. Unfortunately, you the homeowner might not be able to judge the mediocre quality until 1-2 years after the job is done. On the surface everything might look good to you, but we would ask you to be very cautious who you hire in a downturning economy. A quality paint job will last more than a couple of years but even a cheap paint job will look good for 1 year. It is year 3, 4, 5 etc. that count.

Chism Brothers is committed to providing good value to all of our clients, and we never want to sacrifice quality or customer service. We still maintain all the proper license, insurance and certification to keep us the best in painting. A quality paint job that lasts is done by proper prep and the use of quality paint products. If you hire a contractor that will cut their cost or provide you with a bid that is sometimes half what we might charge, the quality will NOT last. We have looked at several homes we completed a number of years ago that still are looking sharp today. Why? Because we did the job right. However, we are repainting homes our competitors did just 3 years before because they did not prep it right the first time.

So, a cheaper price in a down economy should not be looked upon as better. Do a lot of homework before going with a lower cost contractor. It is expensive to run a good business in town. The cheap companies won't last long. A value customer wants a company to stand behind their work for years and be around if a problem surfaces.
