Small Painting Projects with Big Impact

​After living in your home for a period of time, it's common to become accustomed to what you see and overlook any imperfections. It may take the arrival of an important visitor or redecorating another part of the house for those flaws to stand out. Everyone experiences this and no need to be overwhelmed by all that needs improvement; there are simple solutions that can have a big impact. Take some time now and look around for any paint issues that can be easily fixed up. A little repainting will bring brightness back into your home and give you a fresh perspective.

Doors

​When you come home, do you take note of the appearance of your front door? Has the paint lost its vibrancy or become discolored? Is it beginning to chip away? Is the color outdated? Reviving your front door with a new coat of paint can instantly upgrade your home's exterior and give it a fresh look. Now, consider the interior doors - are they smudged or is the paint faded? Follow our easy guide to repaint them in 7 simple steps.

Trim

​How is your interior trim looking? If it’s been a while since it was painted, chances are that it’s looking grubby — and the grubbiness is more than can be attacked with a Magic Eraser. Repainting your interior trim can give your home a beautiful fresh look.

Hallway

​If you have young children, bend down and look at the walls in the hallway. Does it make you want to turn away? Kids tend to think that it is acceptable to touch the walls, often leaving smudges and fingerprints. While you can try your best to clean them off, eventually a repaint is necessary. It can be difficult to find an exact match for the color of your wall due to fading over time, so touching up usually won't suffice. The recommended course of action is usually a full repaint of the hallway.

Bathroom

The bathroom is usually more prone to damage from water, heavy use, dust, and harsh cleaning products than the rest of the house and so needs to be repainted more often. However, since it's typically a smaller area than other areas of your home, you can likely redo it in one afternoon.
