Atlanta Home PaintingIf you haven’t experienced a home-painting project before, you will be surprised by the details and the preparation involved before dipping your brush into a bucket of satin finish. But, perhaps you have a creative flair. You’ve envisioned painting the children’s room in the colors of their favorite superhero. You’ve given thought to painting the dining room in a Georgia peach and Fern green color theme. You’ve flipped through stacks of swatches and compared hundreds of color schemes–again–imagining contrasting colors for the trim and baseboards. You’ve even imagined the tip of your spouse’s nose endearingly dabbled with paint.

Your more adventurous side smiles and says, “I can paint it myself!”

Thankfully, you regain your good senses. After a reality check, you see taped ceilings and walls, paint-drizzled safety goggles, and paint splattered in more places than just the tip of someone’s nose. You see drop cloths covering the entire room with only a narrow pathway weaving through buckets, pans, rollers, brushes, ladders, and your beloved china cabinet.

“I’ll call a professional,” you decide.

Good call. Yet, you don’t want to be confused when it comes to the nuts and bolts of the process, like you feel when a mechanic says, “Your car’s turkey-conveyer-thing-a-magician has blown its top. It costs $1900 to replace it—special order.” Huh?

Atlanta PaintingNo, not this time. You want an Atlanta painting company that is honest, professional, and engages you during every step of the painting process. The company must be proud of its work and reputation. The company should happily offer references and photos of their projects. Clear communication with easily understandable information is required. After all, this is your home.

Verify licenses and insurance. As a home-owner, you could ultimately be responsible for accidents on your property. Take special note of the representative and the company vehicle. Is the representative’s appearance and manner professional? Is the vehicle clean and well maintained? Are transaction terms clearly explained step-by-step in writing? Do they offer custom color schemes? Will they leave leftover paint with you for touch-ups and future use? Details like this are important.

When searching for an Atlanta Home Painting company, word of mouth is an excellent source. Ask friends and family members if they have had positive experiences with any companies. Finding the right people to work with will help you attain the home of your dreams.
