House painting is not only my profession, it is also one of my passions. With that being said, it's extremely important for a service provider and their clients to complete projects on time and in harmony with the home owner. That's why I decided to write this article.
Any time a home owner hires a service provider, there is an agreement made to perform a task or group of tasks at the home in exchange for compensation. Once the initial agreement of work and funds are reached, the project(s) usually begins shortly thereafter. That's the basics. Now, lets discuss some of the finer points.
In almost every project I handle, there is some aspect of the work the home owner insist upon taking on. Whether that's moving furniture, taking down pictures, or picking up their own paint, I've repeatedly found that the home owner's prefer to take part in this side of the project. That is wonderful, provided that the customer in question keeps their word. This is the point where things get tricky.
In situations where the home owner fails to perform their agreed upon part of the job, it makes it very difficult on the service provider. No one wants to pay additional funds for wasted time, and yet, when both parties don't act in accordance with the agreement it creates just that as well as some serious tension. Moral is and always has been paramount when performing laborious tasks, so please keep that in mind when you hire a painter or any other service provider. Good communication and proper attention to honoring the agreement keep all of that at bay, so I'd like to encourage all of you to do just that. Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to contact me with comments, questions, or to schedule your next project.
