Hiring a painter in Brooklyn

Good painting is mostly preparation: patching, sanding and priming before any color goes on. In NYC, the age of your building can also change how the job has to be done.

Our list has 37 licensed businesses here, most often in ZIP codes 11214, 11234, 11204. 9 of them were first licensed at least 10 years ago.

Do painters need a license in NYC?

Yes. Painting a home is home improvement work, so jobs over $200 require a NYC Home Improvement Contractor license.

What about lead paint in older buildings?

Lead paint is common in older NYC buildings. Under federal rules, paid renovation or painting that disturbs paint in most homes built before 1978 must be done by a lead-safe certified firm. Ask for their EPA certification if your home is that old.

What should a painting quote include?

The rooms and surfaces covered, how many coats, the paint brand, prep and repair work, and cleanup. Ask whether furniture moving is included.
