"We experienced damage to our garage roof right before Christmas and I contacted multiple contractors looking to get the repairs done quickly. Jerry from Leak Seekers responded the same day I contacted him and came out right after Christmas to give me an estimate. The repairs were made that same week. I was very pleased with the quick turnaround and Jerry and his crew were great to work with. Highly recommended!"

Drywall Specialist
"With 3 decades of experience as a Licensed Electrician and a landlord with multiple properties around Lewiston, I was hesitant to hire someone I didn't know. I have always done this type of work myself and was afraid I would not be satisfied with another persons work. I was very pleasantly surprised! Devoe Drywall was reasonably priced, met the deadline we agreed upon, did not surprise me with add-ons and extras, did an A-1 job, and cleaned up well beyond what I expected. I will definitely contact him the next time I have sheetrock work. No more doing it myself - THANK YOU JOHN!"

Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.
We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.
Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.
Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.
