The contractor should come highly recommended from a number of different sources. Putting on a faux finish requires more skill than other types of painting jobs. You want to make sure that the contractor you hire will be able to give you a perfect faux finish. Finding recommendations or reviews for the contractor will be the best way to determine his or her skill.

You should find a contractor who guarantees his or her work. A work guarantee is simply an assertion by the contractor that he or she will stands by the work. This can relieve a lot of the stress that comes with hiring a contractor.

Always get estimates from more than one contractor. If you have more options, then you will have a greater opportunity for savings.
