Three Things to do Before You Hire a Professional Painter

Whether you are looking to paint the interior or exterior of your Los Angeles home or business, Richard Stewart Painting is here to help. But before you give us a call, there are a few considerations you should make to help ensure the project progresses smoothly. Of course, we are always happy to give our clients advice on color, sheen and architecture, but it is important for you to be aware of your likes and dislikes before we step on site.

As you schedule your initial appointment with us, think about the following to prepare for your part in your renovation project.

Three Things to do Before You Hire a Professional Painter

Learn Your Colors

When it comes to color, everyone has a different opinion. And since you will be the one spending the most time in your space, yours is the opinion that matters most during your project. Before you decide to hire a professional painter, take some time to think about the colors that you would like to see transform your space. Decide whether beiges and creams are more your style, or if grays and blues are the accent hues for you.

Think about how bold of a statement you would like each wall to make, and what emotions you would like each area of your home to convey. Once you know what feelings you would like your space to create, you will have an easier time deciding on colors – based on which ones evoke those particular emotions in you.

Save Inspiration

When it comes to the painting business, one of the best things about the Internet is that it allows us to browse an almost endless array of images for inspiration. Using sites like Pinterest and Houzz is a wonderful way to learn your likes – and dislikes – before a single drop of color is painted on your walls. Save some images that you love, as well as some that you really dislike to help provide us with an overall understanding of your interior design taste.

Look at Your Current Walls

Whether you no longer like a room’s current color, or years of wear and tear means your walls deserve a fresh coat of color, there is a reason that you are hiring us to repaint your home. This reason can help you to shape decisions not only on color, but on finish as well. Depending on what a particular space is used for, as well as what age your children are, there are different options to choose from to help ensure a lasting finish in a color you love. Let us know what you don’t like about your current walls so we can help to ensure that the updated results will match your lifestyle perfectly!

Now that you are ready to get started on your interior or exterior painting project, it’s time to give Richard Stewart Painting a call at 1-818-951-1181. We look forward to helping you bring some new life and color to your home!
