Professional Trim Painting Vs. DIY – Save
Yourself A Headache By Hiring An Expert

Understanding The Benefits Of Hiring
Professional Painters

When you need trim painting for your New Berlin home, picking up a paintbrush and getting to work can be tempting.

But having a paintbrush doesn’t make one a professional painter. Sadly, most homeowners don’t understand this until they’re looking at the not-so-great results of their trim painting project. Spare yourself from unsightly, drippy lines, uneven paint, and paint bleed on your trim by hiring the best in the business.

While the upfront costs can seem higher than simply painting the trim yourself, the costs of a DIY job quickly add up – especially when you have to fix inevitable problems.

Painting your trim yourself may sound easy and fun at first. However, after picking out the paint colors and determining which trim to paint, it can quickly become overwhelming.

Material costs, time, and effort are required for trim painting, and if you decide it’s too much for you, you can’t exactly stop halfway through the project unless you want to look at the mess of unfinished, dismantled trim.

See why hiring a professional painter for your trim painting project is the best choice – both for your home and for your wallet!

Reason 1: Hiring A Professional Costs Less

When you hire a professional painter to complete your trim painting, you pay one lump sum that includes everything – materials, labor, and additional costs.

But with a DIY trim painting job, it’s easy to underestimate the costs. And the number one value there, is your time! Next, materials add up quickly. You need special tape to prevent paint bleed, expensive sealing and bonding primer, the paint itself – which needs to be high-quality, durable paint that will stand up over time – paintbrushes, protective dropcloth for your floors, and more. And last but not least, the toll on your body. Sore knees, sore back, sore neck. Yuck.

Depending on the location of your home where you need the trim painted, there may be extra costs for accommodating your space. If you’re painting the trim in your kitchen, you may be unable to use the kitchen, leading to more money spent eating out and ready-made meals.

At Colorwheel Painting, you’ll rarely have to seal off the space in your home. We get the job done quickly but efficiently, and if your trim painting takes longer than a day, we’ll carefully seal off the space so you can easily use your kitchen, bathroom, or any other room you need if the job warrants such action.

Once you total up the numbers, you may find that the costs to DIY are comparable to hiring a professional. And that’s not even including the money spent to fix and repaint any mistakes!

Reason 2: Hiring A Professional Takes Less Time

Setting up, getting the materials together, prepping the trim area, priming, and painting are all steps that need to be done with utmost accuracy. Odds are you won’t remember to buy everything you need at the store either, so prepare for multiple trips.

It’s not a big deal for professional painters who paint trim regularly, but it’s a minefield for homeowners who don’t entirely know what they’re doing.

Don’t spend all your time off with the tedium of trim painting. Take back your weekends and nights by hiring a professional!

Reason 3: With A Professional, You Get A Warrantied,
High-Quality Job

Even the most artistic homeowners may find they bite off more than they can chew with trim painting. Professional painters paint trim for a living, so they know every detail and every step needed to make your trim as crisp and fresh as if it were brand new.

If you love the look of your wood trim and opt to keep it instead of painting it, we can refinish your trim for a flawless look that doesn’t leave stains on your walls and flooring.

Not only are you guaranteed to get a high-quality paint job with our professionals at Colorwheel Painting, but our work is backed by our solid one-year warranty. Dissatisfied with the job? Not to worry – under our warranty, we’ll make it right at no cost to you.
