As the months get colder, more and more of our time is spent cuddling up inside.  As winter approaches and we’re breaking out the blankets it might be time to take a look at the paint in your house. You might be seeing it a lot more as the temperature drops!

When it comes to painting the interior of your home, the most important thing is quality.  You want a beautiful home and if your paint job isn’t done great, it might be worse than when you started!
It may seem easy to do on the surface, but it’s not as easy as it might look.  A DIY paint job might end with streaks, uneven color, or even blemishes.

At CorsPaint, our team of professional painters will get the job done right and have your home looking beautiful the first time so you can enjoy your home stress free.

Why Hire a Professional?

We always recommend hiring a professional paint crew to avoid issues during the job, but did you know that we will start working for you before we ever pick up a brush?

At CorsPaint, we have a process to make sure you get a beautiful and professional end result.

Preparation

Before we ever start painting it’s critical to include good caulking and spackle. The caulking will seal holes where air might escape and paint will drip.  This will protect everything from the bathroom to the baseboards.  Spackle will cover cracks and imperfections in your walls for a professional appearance once the walls are painted.

Color consultation

Anyone who has ever picked up a color preview fan knows just how daunting choosing a paint color can be.  There are over a thousand colors in some!  It’s hard to tell them apart in the book let alone how they will look in your home.  We can help you determine what type is best for your home interior: eggshell, satin, or gloss.  These are easy to clean in comparison to a flat sheen paint and we can help pick that perfect color with you.

Selecting the right product

Paints are not all made the same.  So it is important to make sure your paint has the right additives for the job.  Bathroom walls are subject to moisture and heat that can cause mold and mildew.  One additive, mildewcide, actually destroys mold and mildew.  This makes it a great option for bathroom walls, and any other interior walls subject to moisture.

Why Paint Your Home Interior During Winter?

If I’m hiring a professional to do my painting, why does it matter what time of year I do it?  It’s a reasonable question, so let’s explain why winter is a good time of year to do interior painting.

Dry air

We all hope for a few days a year in Florida where the humidity drops a bit and winter is the only time of year it will likely happen.  With less moisture in the air, your fresh coat of paint will dry quicker than in the hot and humid summer air.

Ventilation

It is important to fully ventilate your home when painting the interior to allow the paint fumes to escape.  With the cool winter weather and bug-free outdoors it’s the perfect time to be able to open your windows and keep your home ventilated without the cost of machines to do it.
