3 Interior Painting Tips and Tricks
Posted on October 21, 2021
The holidays are quickly approaching. Leaves are changing colors, the air is cooler, and families are creating plans to get together. There are a few ways to make your family feel more at home. Good food always helps, but so does a clean coat of paint on your home interior! Interior painting for the holidays is a fun and easy way to prepare your home for the winter months. In this article, we’ll provide you with three reasons you should undergo an interior painting during this time. Let’s get started!
1. Clean and Prep the Area
Nothing is more important than thoroughly preparing both the room and yourself for the interior paint job. For the best finish possible, we recommend you remove doors and use drop cloths to cover any surface you don’t want paint on (floors, furniture, etc.). The area that is going to be painted should be cleaned with the proper equipment as well. A dirty wall will make it difficult for the new paint to adhere to.
The cleaner the surface, the better the result. Typically, a wet rag with a small bit of soap should get the job done. If you notice any peeling, cracking, or flaking on your surface, you’ll want to stop and find the route of the problem. More often than not, new coats of paint don’t last as long because there is damage underneath. Once all of this is taken care of, you’re good to continue on to the next step!
2. Fix Any Problems
The change of season is the perfect time to hire painters for both interior and exteriors. However, interiors can be especially important to note any insulation problems with the house. The best painters will offer light carpentry services alongside their painting services. We recommend working with that sort of team to make sure you are ready for whatever the winter may throw at you.
3. Hire the Professionals
House painting is not an easy task. Here at CertaPro, we appreciate a good DIY project; however, most painting jobs should be left to the pros. We can bring all the right equipment to get your job done quickly and efficiently without problem. Our painter insurance will cover any warranty issues as well, so you don’t have to worry about being on the hook in the worst-case scenario.
