The decision to paint is full of emotions and excitement, and many homeowners dive in quickly, anxious to get the project started so they can make important changes to their homes.  \nWhile we completely understand the thrill of a painting project (after all, we believe in Painting Happiness!) we also think it’s important to take a rational approach. Painting is a process and if the excitement causes you to skip important steps , the end results will suffer.  \nTo help you out, we’ve created this guide with everything you need to know for your next painting project. Use the guide to as a template of the important steps to follow in your next painting project, and you’re sure to be pleased during the final walkthrough.  \nBenefits of Painting  \nThere are many home improvement projects to choose from, so why is painting one of the most popular projects selected by today’s homeowners? Some of the benefits of painting include:  \n􀁸 It increases home value.  \n􀁸 It enhances curb appeal.  \n􀁸 It helps to protect the interior or exterior surfaces underneath.  \n􀁸 It can help hide permanent marks or stains.  \n􀁸 It is the most inexpensive remodel.  \n􀁸 It contributes to positive energy in the home and an improved outlook for the homeowner.  \nThe last benefit is what we like to call Painting Happiness. The amazing transformation that a coat of paint can bring to your home means overwhelming joy and renewed sense of pride in your home. New paint is the opportunity to start fresh and give your home a second life.  \nThe Painting Process  \nAs we mentioned above, painting is a process and it should be taken seriously. Some of the main steps in the painting process are:  \nBefore the Project  \n􀁸 Defining the Scope of the Project  \n􀁸 Getting Inspiration  \n􀁸 Researching Paint Contractors  \n􀁸 Getting Estimates  \n􀁸 Hiring the Right Paint Contractor  \n􀁸 Choosing Paint Colors  \nDuring the Project  \n􀁸 Prepping the Area  \n􀁸 Priming  \n􀁸 Painting  \n􀁸 Clean Up  \nAfter the Project  \n􀁸 Walkthrough  \n􀁸 Warranties & Guarantees  \n􀁸 Maintenance  \n􀁸 Touching Up Paint  \n􀁸 Annual Inspections  \nThroughout the rest of this document, we will look at each part of the painting process so you understand what to expect at each stage and can successfully execute your project.  \nBEFORE THE PROJECT  \nThe steps involved before the painting project begins are crucial in getting your project off on the right foot. These are the steps that homeowners are most likely to skip – of course because they are eager to jump right into the project itself. However, it is important that you take your time before the project begins to define the scope of your project, pick the right colors and designs, and hire the right painting contractor for the job.  \nDefining the Scope of the Project  \nAt some point, something sparked your idea to take on a home painting project. It might be that it’s simply time to repaint, or you may feel like changing colors or designs, or you may have been inspired by a friend or family member who did a recent painting project. Whatever it is, you’ve decided to paint – and the first step is to design the scope of the project.  \nThe main goals of this step are to define where you want to paint and how much work you want to tackle.  \n􀁸 Inspect the house room by room (or on all parts of the exterior) and write down all the areas you’d ideally want to paint.  \n􀁸 Don’t forget to consider all parts of that room (or exterior section) that need painting.
