Signs It’s Time to Repaint Your Home
Selecting a paint color is often the most exciting part of a painting project, but the finish you choose is just as important. The right finish not only affects how the paint looks but also how it performs over time. At Jehody Painting, we guide homeowners through every decision to ensure a result that is both beautiful and durable.
Here is a simple guide to help you understand which finishes work best for each area of your home.
Flat or Matte Finish
Flat finishes create a smooth, non-reflective surface that works well in low-traffic areas. They are excellent at hiding imperfections on walls, but are less resistant to stains and harder to clean. This makes them ideal for ceilings, adult bedrooms, and formal dining rooms where durability is not the top priority.
Eggshell Finish
Eggshell offers a soft sheen and is one of the most popular choices for living rooms and bedrooms. It is more washable than flat paint and can handle light cleaning, making it a good balance between style and practicality.
Stains or Scuff Marks That Don’t Wash Off
Over time, high-traffic areas like hallways, kitchens, and children’s rooms can accumulate marks, stains, and fingerprints that are hard to clean. A new coat of paint brings back a fresh, clean look and helps prevent future buildup.
You’re Updating Your Style or Selling Your Home
Color trends and personal tastes evolve. A fresh paint job instantly modernizes your space and makes it feel more inviting. If you’re preparing to sell, repainting can make your property stand out and create a positive first impression for potential buyers.
Wood or Drywall Damage
If your trim, siding, or drywall shows signs of damage, it’s essential to repair and repaint as soon as possible. Leaving exposed surfaces untreated allows moisture to seep in, which can lead to further deterioration. Professional painters can repair minor damage before applying new paint, ensuring a smooth, lasting finish.
