Ever wondered what color to paint a specific room in your home? There’s a lot of thought that can go into something someone might choose. Although painting isn’t as permanent as adding on a new room or changing the floor tile, you are going to want to make sure the colors you choose look as good as you hope. If you do happen to paint a room and it doesn’t turn out the way you had hoped, call us and we can repaint the room or rooms for you.  We have the experience you need to make sure your walls or ceiling look their best.

If you are not sure what color you want, here is a list of our top three things to consider when choosing a paint color:

  1. Consider what the room is being used for – Yellow and red are appetizing colors, so they might be a good choice for a kitchen. Blue is a soothing color so it might be a good choice for a bedroom or a bathroom. These aren’t the only colors you’ll want to consider, just a few examples. You’ll also want colors that will go well with the furniture and decor in a room or themes you might be trying to create.
  2. Think of what other rooms are in proximity – whether you have an open floor plan or furniture that looks through open doors, it’s important to know what other paint colors will be seen in proximity to that room. Clashing colors and themes should be taken into consideration when picking subtle or intense paint colors.
  3. Think of the purpose of the paint job – For example, if you want chalkboard paint in your kitchen so you can write up the menu, are you going to want to paint every wall with chalk paint or more likely,  just an accent wall? Accent walls can help create the look you’re going for without making the paint color you love seem overbearing. Not every room needs an accent wall, but it is something to consider.
