Professional painters already have all the best equipment. When you do it yourself, you will either spend a lot of money on tools that you won’t use much, or you will do the job with improper tools and end up with undesirable results.  Painting contractors know the techniques and products that will produce lasting results, so that your house will not need to be repainted as often. This directly equates to how much time it will take. What will take us a few hours or a day will take a homeowner a day or two or their entire weekend.
