A number of paint brands are available on the market and include different finishes and textures. You may want to consider your lifestyle and the amount of wear and tear that your home sees. If you have children or pets, a higher quality washable matte or semi-gloss might be more appropriate than a cheaper run of the mill flat paint. Better quality paints can be found in low VOC versions as well which will be healthier for you and your family. Cheap paints usually have a higher odor content.
Along with a cheaper quality paint, some painting companies opt for cheaper supplies such as poor quality brushes, drop cloths and tape. This prevents crisp lines and an even look. These little items might not seem like a big deal but when the job is completed, it makes a big difference in the overall look of the home and how well the paint job looks. Your furniture and floors should be protected well and unpainted portions should be kept in pristine condition.

Hiring a commercial painting contractor can ensure that you will get what you want. You can ask your neighbors or friends who they used for their own homes or you can inquire at your local paint supply store. Hardware stores may also have a few names that they can pass on to you. Cheap is not the way to go when it comes to painting in Atlanta.
