When you paint your home or commercial space, you want to get the best results. The time, money, and effort spent should amount to nothing less than perfection. We know this–– and so do other painting companies. But how can you be sure to get the best house painting? Our professional painters are here to give our insider secrets. Following these tips will make the painting process easier and the final product better. Our professionals have painted thousands of home interiors across the United States and perfected the art painting. Here is what we have to share with you!

Choose the Best Paint Type

Our first tip for getting the best house painting job is to choose the right paint. This includes a variety of aspects, including color, type, and accessories (such as primer). The wrong combination of paint materials can cause the finish to be sub-par.  

The best professional paints can help you decide between solvent-based and water-based paint to start this process. You will also have the option between gloss, semi-gloss, satin, and flat finishes. It can be overwhelming at first, but the right paint company will know where to lead you.

Clean and Prep the Area

There is nothing that is more important than thoroughly preparing the surface and yourself for the paint job. For the best finish possible, it is recommended that 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 onto the next house painting step!
