All About Color Consultations
Here are some frequently asked questions about using our color consultant to help you choose both interior and exterior colors for your home.
What is a color consultant?
Our consultants have experience as a color specialist in the paint industry or as a designer from the local area. Both can help you narrow down colors to a few paint choices that will work well with your furnishings.
They will never push you into a scheme you’re not comfortable with but will help expand your mind to colors you might not have chosen without some guidance.
Why use a color consultant?
We find that lots of our customers get stuck choosing a color and can’t move forward. It can get worse if a customer is trying to choose an entire color scheme of three or four different shades. All those colors can be overwhelming when trying to choose just a few hues.
This is why A full 20% of our customers take advantage of our free color consultant. Being thrilled with your colors makes all the difference to the final look of your home.
What could go wrong if I choose colors myself?
Average people without design experience tend to choose colors that look very light on the color samples they get at the paint store but appear much darker or brighter when they are painted in a whole room.
That “grassy green” on the sample card in the store can end up looking more like “Pea Soup Green” when painted on all four walls.
Neutral colors are tough to get right too.
Whites have undertones that are hard to read on the small paint chips.
Pick the wrong white and the walls can look dirty or yellow. Color Consultants are trained to see the color nuances in whites and neutrals that the average person just doesn’t see very easily.
What qualifies a color consultant?
Most interior designers naturally have a good eye for color – that is the case with both of the designers we use at CertaPro Painters of Ogden Layton.
When we were interviewing candidates, it was super important to us that the consultant had a demeanor that was open-minded and low-key – we didn’t want the consultant to push their own taste onto our customers, but rather work with our customers’ tastes to choose the best palette.
