The three checks that matter
First, confirm the business is real and registered — a legal business name, a physical address, and a searchable presence rather than only a phone number. Second, ask for the insurance certificate directly from the carrier or agent, not a photo of a card. Third, insist the estimate lists surfaces, prep steps, product names and payment milestones.
Pro Touch Painting is licensed and insured, carries insurance number C6988790790, is BBB accredited with an A+ rating, and issues every estimate as an itemized written document you sign electronically. Our address and phone number are published on every page of this site.
Deposit and payment red flags
Be cautious with any contractor who wants a large cash deposit before materials are ordered, who will not put the scope in writing, or whose price drops sharply if you sign the same day. Reasonable structures tie payment to progress: a deposit to schedule, a milestone when preparation is complete and ready for paint application, and the final payment upon completion of the final walkthrough.
That is exactly how our estimates are structured, and the schedule is printed on the document before you sign it.
Common questions
- Do painters need a state license in Florida?
- Painting is not a state-certified trade like electrical or plumbing, so licensing is handled locally through business registration rather than a statewide painting license. That makes proof of general liability insurance and a written scope the most important things to verify.
- How can I confirm Pro Touch Painting is insured?
- Ask and we will send the certificate before work begins. Our insurance number is C6988790790, and it is printed on every estimate we issue.
