We have a few tips to help guide you speedily through the process.Don’t Assume It’s Too Late - Contact Your Local Professional Painter
Even if you are a die-hard do-it-yourselfer, this isn’t the season to waste any time. Talking with a professional painter who can help with color selection, budgeting, and beautiful, timely results is essential. If you call right away, you might even be surprised to find scheduling flexibility and availability on short notice. Many professional painting companies also offer seasonal discounts during this time of year (especially if you can wait on your project until just after the holiday rush). All of the above actually makes this an awesome time to call your painter. Here are a few more tips for streamlining your painting goals and strategy.Prioritize - What Do You Want and What Do You Need?
If time or budget are major concerns, you may need to whittle down your list by outlining needs and wants. If there is a blemish or particularly unsightly wallpaper in the dining room, for example, that would fall into the “need” column.Focus On Where Your Guests Will Be Spending Their Time
You know your home better than anyone. As you prioritize your project, focus first on those spaces that folks are most likely to congregate, or where the most “wow factor” can be delivered.Never Forget Your Kitchen Painting Opportunities
Kitchens hold the heartbeat of the holidays for most homes.
Cabinet painting can absolutely transform the space in a relatively short amount of time, and often for substantially less expense than a full cabinetry replacement. There is long term value offered in this process too, as kitchen investments typically enjoy a high return on investment.
