Painting Your Home: Where to Start?

If you are reading this, you are most likely considering having your home painted. The good news is, we are going to fill you in on the initial steps you should be taking when it comes to improving your home. 

Does your home need to be painted? 

First off, the big question...does your home really need to be painted? Usually, it is not difficult to tell if your residence could use a fresh coat of paint. A quality paint job usually lasts around 10 years. If your home has met the 10 year mark, it is due for a paint job. But, if you are unsure here are some key signs to look for. 

  • Chipping and Peeling - If the paint on your home is peeling, that is an immediate sign that it's time to call in the the professionals. Not only is chipping paint unsightly to look at, but it also can be dangerous. 
  • Dry Rot and Decay - If the paint on your home is chipping away, that is when rot and decay set in. Mold can work its way under the paint causing health issues for you and your family. 
  • New Color for Aesthetic - Part of the re-designing process often involves new colors and fresh paint. If you want to give your home a new feel, a professional paint job is a great place to start. 

How to choose a professional painter. 

It is no secret that there are plenty of painting companies out there offering good service. Not every business offers quality service that they can stand by however. A great way to understand if a painting business is the best choice for your needs is to read previous customer reviews online. Speaking with a representative of the business is essential as well. Ask questions! A quality company should be able to clearly and effectively answer your questions.
