- Notes:
  > It will differ based on the \[company/contractor\](https://listium.com/explore?q=home%20painting) you choose to work with. However, some of the basic steps of the process should include booking an initial consultation over the phone or online. After a date has been set for the consultation, someone should come out to inspect and perform the consultation, as well as review the scope of work. 
  > 
  > Once that is finished, an estimate should be provided. If all parties agree, a start date is set and, depending on the time frame, the work will begin and be completed within the allotted time. It is important to note that some factors outside of the painters’ control could impact the timely completion of the project.
