WHY HIRE A PRO?
There is nothing more personal to many people than opening your home up to strangers to have work completed. Contractors can tend to take over your home, and that can cause all different levels of anxiety to set it. So, are the benefits of hiring out your painting to a professional worth it?
High-quality work: Professional painters have the skills, knowledge, and experience to deliver a high-quality finish that will last for years. They use the right tools, techniques, and materials to ensure a smooth, even, and consistent coat of paint that is free from drips, streaks, and other imperfections. They know how to cut straight lines with their brushes and you should not have to worry about paint getting onto your woodwork. From start to finish, prep to clean-up, the work is on the painters and not on you! Do you feel a bit of that anxiety releasing yet?
Time savings: Painting a room or a building can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. By hiring a professional painter, you can save yourself the time and effort it would take to do it yourself, allowing you to focus on other important things in your life. Since professionals do this work daily they can paint a room twice as fast as most homeowners. Faster speeds means less time for your home to feel out of order. Oh yeah, we can see the weight that was just lifted off your shoulders!
Safety: Painting can be a dangerous activity, especially when it involves working at heights or using hazardous materials. Professional painters have the training and equipment needed to ensure their safety and the safety of those around them. Proper protective equipment can be costly to a homeowner, and many times once the painting is over it is never used again. Hiring a professional means there is no reason for you to purchase this equipment. The only one who doesn't win here is the company you makes the equipment!
Cost-effectiveness: While hiring a professional painter may seem like an additional expense, it can actually save you money in the long run. A professional painter will use high-quality materials and techniques that can make your paint job last longer, saving you money on repairs and repainting in the future. Most professionals also have relationships with the paint suppliers, so if there ever were to be an issue with the product, your chance of getting some sort of compensation is better. That has to give you a sense of peace, right?
Professional advice: We are often told the most stressful part of the painting process is trying to choose your colors. Well, many professional painters can offer expert advice on color choices, paint types, and other aspects of your painting project. They can help you achieve the look and feel you want while also ensuring that the paint is appropriate for the surfaces being painted. In our company, homeowners are provided with larger sized samples of their color choices prior to painting. The difference in how some paint colors look between a 2-inch sample and a 10-inch sample is amazing. With professional help, we make sure you love your new colors before they go on the wall. Talk about a HUGE relief for you!
Overall, hiring a professional painter can provide you with peace of mind, a high-quality finish, and a hassle-free painting experience. WHO your painter is definitely plays a role in your experience, so it is important to choose wisely. Look for a future post on how to know a paint company is the one you really want.
