Rethink Interior Painting: Color Tips to Transform Your Home in Richmond, VA

Posted on January 9, 2025

Winter in Virginia is the perfect time to refresh your home’s interior with a splash of color. While outdoor projects often take a backseat, interior painting is a quick and impactful way to transform your living space. Here are our painting tips tailored to help homeowners in the Richmond area this season:

Make Big Changes Without Renovations

Interior painting is one of the simplest ways to make a dramatic change in both historic and modern homes, without the need for costly renovations. During the winter months, the experts at CertaPro Painters® often have greater availability, allowing for fast project timelines.

The Power of Accent Colors

Accent colors are an affordable way to add personality to your home. Instead of repainting an entire room, a single accent wall can create a focal point in your living room, bedroom, or dining area.

Richmond’s mix of historic and contemporary homes means you can get creative with accent colors that fit your style. Deep greens and classic blues pair beautifully with traditional interiors while modern homes can embrace sleek blacks, terracotta tones, or lighter shades like off-white and pastels. Painting ceilings, doors, or trim with an accent color can completely change the feel of your home without breaking the bank.

Maximize Natural Light with Bright Colors

Shorter daylight hours in the winter can still leave your home feeling darker. Choosing the right mix of light-reflecting colors like off-whites, soft yellows, or pastel tones can brighten your home so you feel more energized.

Homes in older neighborhoods often feature tall windows that can be complemented with lighter colors to capitalize on the natural light. For newer builds, these same tones can bring a sense of energy and openness, even without an abundance of natural light.

Start Your Transformation Today!

Many homeowners don’t realize winter is the ideal time to complete indoor painting projects. We at CertaPro Painters® of NW Richmond and Midlothian have greater availability before spring and can accommodate urgent project deadlines. Additionally, Richmond’s mild winter climate makes it easier to ventilate your home during an interior painting project if needed.
