How to Choose The Best Trim Color

Posted on March 29, 2021

When you decide to schedule a professional interior painting service at your home, make sure that you don’t forget about the trim. It may seem like a small detail in comparison to the walls of your home, but it really can make all the difference. Your trim color is what defines entering from one room into the next. Keeping these surfaces smooth, clean, and fresh can make your home feel much more inviting.

At CertaPro Painters®️ of Tysons, we value keeping you informed about the latest information in the painting industry. Below we are going to let you in on a few of our tips for choosing the best trim color for all of your interior spaces.

Look for Colors That Will Complement Your Space

It is essential to the flow of your home that you choose a trim color that will complement your space. Different shades of white or other neutrals will work best with varying colors. For example, warm whites match best with warmer vibrant colors. You wouldn’t want to use a warm white paint on the trim of a mint blue room. This is because it wouldn’t pop or complement the space. A more modern and cool shade of white would work best in this situation.

If you find the trim color selecting process a bit confusing, our painting contractors are here to help. We provide each of our clients with a free color consultation. At these appointments, a local designer can work with you to choose a complementary color for any interior space.

Your Trim Color Doesn’t Always Have to Be White

While white paint is probably the most utilized color for trim painting services, you can always decide to go bolder if that is more your style. For example, if your room is currently painted a neutral color, choosing something darker for your trim can define and bring attention to windows, doors, and other elements in your home. Some residences may even opt to have their trim stained. A stained trim is most popular in Historic and Victorian style homes.
