We're looking to try to get our houses exterior painted before it gets too cold and I'm just now getting around to lining up some contractors to call for estimates. I know a lot of building trade folks are being hit pretty hard by the economy downturn and decided I'd inquire here to see if any of our Raleigh area members might be painting contractors and interested in giving me an estimate. I'm not looking for freebies or anything, just looking for an estimate from a licensed/bonded painting contractor. Also, I've got no interest in attempting the job myself or hiring anyone "on the side" to help me DIY.

If anyone does this as as profession and is interested shoot me a PM with contact info and we can go from there. Also, if anyone has had any recent good experiences with local painters I'm interested in hearing about them as well in case I don't get any bites from members.

So you have a better idea about the job here's some info about the house. Single story all brick ranch with rear walk out basement, so job is pretty much all soffet/fascia/trim/caulking and probably some replacement of rotten wood as well.

TIA,
Brian.

I require a wet bar to be built in my basement. I have a general idea of what I require but have no definite plans. Artistic input would be appreciated.
Is any one willing to take a look at the layout or able to provide a good reference?

Thanks
