The biggest distinction between painting a new space versus a repaint project is the nature of the professional relationship. For a new project, the painting contractor typically works under the direction of a general contractor and has little or no interaction with the client. In the case of a repaint, the owner often contracts directly with the painting company. Therefore, it is imperative that the owner selects a highly experienced painting firm that has the capacity to manage the project, communicate the process from start to finish, and deliver a quality product.
