A simple refresh with a new coat of paint can do wonders in rejuvenating your space and making it feel like new again. Whether you’re looking to completely change the look of your home or elevate its mood with subtlety, it’s all about making a choice that reflects your vision.
It’s important to note that the quality of the paint, the experience of the team you hire, and the climate in which you live makes all the difference in how long your paint job lasts and whether or not you’ll need to paint again soon thereafter.

Now, let’s take a look at some factors you need to consider before taking the plunge and repainting your home.
Preparation & Planning
Before any work can begin, it’s of fundamental importance that your home is completely clean of dirt, mold, mildew that has built up over time. It’s also important that it’s properly cleaned from toxic lead paint. Lead paint is usually more commonly found in older homes, but it’s still important to contact an abatement company that can safely discard it. After there is a good, clean foundation to work with, surfaces can be smoothed, sanded, and primed. This ensures a uniform color that looks great in all types of lighting and performs well in a variety of conditions, long-term.
Choosing the Right Company
While many people choose to DIY it and opt to paint their homes themselves, hiring professionals like the ones at our Home Makeover Centre North Vancouver paint store can make a world of a difference.
