He uses Benjamin Moore paints, which give a high quality result, and he is very good at estimating how much paint will be needed. He is very responsive, shows up when he promises he will, is extremely hardworking and honest, and he follows through. Mr. Bazile's rates were reasonable, he honored the price he quoted, and we are very pleased with how the exterior of our house turned out. We will DEFINITELY use him again when our new house needs exterior paint and would recommend him to others. On a side note, we used Mr. Bazile previously on a very large, complex interior paint job. I felt so comfortable with him and his knowledge and experience, that we just went with him, based on gut instinct, even though his reviews were under the exterior paint category. Mr. Bazile worked very hard to make sure I was pleased, and I was; however, his crew was not of the same caliber as Mr. Bazile himself, and I found that to be stressful. They were simply not as detail-oriented and organized as he was, and I felt that this required me to follow behind them more than I would have liked. Too bad we couldn't just clone Mr. Bazile! All of that being said, I would use Mr. Bazile again for interior paint jobs of a more manageable scale. In hindsight, I think the scope of this job was just so big that it would have been a challenge for anyone. He did an exceptional job on the woodwork and ceilings; he's a master with a brush!

EASY TO DEAL WITH: They were able to start work soon after the estimate. Painters arrived on time each day. They were neat and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. I felt safe with the painters in my home. EAGER TO DO THE BEST JOB POSSIBLE: Our home presented some unique challenges that required extra work, but the painters were quite responsive and clearly only concerned about making the finished work as perfect as possible.
In the dining room, we chose a metallic-based paint (Martha Stewart) that presented many challenges. I had already bought the paint from Home Depot, and even the person who sold me the paint said that they had had many complaints about it. It is a very thin paint that is (it turns out) impossible to leave a smooth finish. Every paint stroke shows. Once this became apparent, the painters took several unusual measures (sanding the walls, double-priming, straining the paint to remove tiny clumps) to make the paint look smooth and to minimize the appearance of paint strokes. However, we still were not satisfied, so one of the painters thought to try sponge painting, which turned out great.
The wooden cathedral ceiling took over twice as long as expected, partly because the painter was so careful to caulk all divits, pits, and recesses of the wood so that the dark wood wouldn't show through the cream-colored paint. No extra charge.
WE ARE VERY HAPPY WITH THE WORK DONE AND WILL USE PRIM PAINTERS AGAIN!

FAQs for exterior painting projects in Gardere, LA
You should paint your home exterior every five to 10 years, on average. Climate and surroundings can affect how well paint holds up. Wood siding will likely need a fresh coat of paint every three to seven years. Paint on brick tends to last about eight to 17 years, on average.
Calculate the square footage of the area you want to paint. Divide the square footage by 350 (the average square footage a gallon of paint covers). Multiply the number of gallons you need by two, as you’ll likely be applying two coats of paint. For a more accurate estimate, subtract the square footage of the windows and doors from the initial square footage total. It’s a good idea to plan for an extra gallon of paint to make sure you have enough to finish the job.
To calculate the square footage of a home exterior, painters multiply the length of the wall by the height of the wall to be painted. Then they add the total square footage for all of the walls to be painted. To calculate the price, they multiply the total square footage by their cost per square foot to prep and paint. Additional costs may factor in such as repairs, additional trim, and walls higher than the first story.
The cost to paint the exterior of a house ranges from $1,900 to $4,500 or about $1.50 to $4 per square foot, depending on the size, height, and complexity of the home layout. Other cost factors include your location, the type of siding (e.g., wood, aluminum, brick, stucco, etc.), and the kind of paint (e.g. oil-based, latex, acrylic, etc.). Painting the trim a different color or painting intricately designed trim can also increase the cost.
You should apply at least two coats of paint when painting the exterior of your house. Two coats of paint provides better durability and more even coverage than just one coat.
