As your professional painting contractor in Chandler Heights, we can't stress this enough:  don't paint your home yourself, unless you're 100% sure of what you're doing.

You'll Have Better Results With a Professional Painter in Chandler Heights

As we covered previously, unless you're a professional house painter yourself, you will realize after some time why you should have hired a pro to do the job, particularly when the paint cracks appear or the paint starts peeling off.
There are a lot of reasons to hire a professional painter in Chandler Heights. One of them is security. Do you want to take a chance on a contractor? Can you afford to have unknown contractors and strangers in and out of your home? What about security threats that you and your family are exposed to? Unfortunately, you don't know what to expect when you hire an amateur to do your house painting. He might have a criminal record for all you know. Always protect your home, family and all the assets by hiring a professional.
An excellent interior and exterior paint job will protect the investment you have in your home. If done properly, professional house painting will not only make your home more beautiful but also protect it from weather damage and interior aesthetic damage that comes as a result of hiring amateurs. Professional house painters will use quality materials and professionally apply them. This will ensure your investments are long-lasting and the value of your home is preserved. Hiring amateurs may cost you money every year. In the worst scenario, you may be subjected to leaks and exterior damages to your house if you use amateurs.

A Chandler Heights House Painting Contractor Can Handle Any Size Paint Job

The size of the paint job is one of the major things homeowners should consider when deciding between painting their homes by themselves or hiring professional painters. In most cases, the old paint has to be scraped off before new paint is applied to the walls. Scrapping and preparing the walls is not a walk in the park. Scrapping itself requires you to be in good shape to reach all corners in your house. This is where professionals get the job done just as you would love it.
Hidden costs that come with DIY house painting are something that most house owners forget to include in their budget. The paint itself may be relatively cheap, but all the tools, brushes, ladders and sprayers also need to be purchased. In fact, by the time a homeowner buys all the extra equipment needed to paint a house, costs certainly end up being higher than hiring a professional service. Before hiring a local painter, make a trip to your local store and find out just how challenging it is to use a modern spray painter in conducting advance paint techniques.
So, you'll know what you're getting, and there should be no hidden costs.  You'll protect your safety as well as your investment.  All excellent reasons to contact a professional painting contractor in or near Chandler Heights.

How hard is it to paint your home yourself?  Well, if you don't know what you're doing, you can make some mistakes that can come back to haunt you later on...

Why Hiring a Professional Painter in Chandler Heights is a Better Idea

We get it.  You're trying to save money, and you're under the impression that doing it yourself will be perfect for that.  So you buy some paint, slap it on the outside of your house, and it looks fine.  That is until just a few days later, you notice that there are areas of the paint that have bubbles in it. Then when the bubbles burst, you have gaps.  And pretty soon, your do it yourself paint job looks horrible.  All of that could have been avoided with a professional painter in Chandler Heights.
Most homeowners have probably thought they could do their painting just as well as professionals with the help of their kids and friends. This idea is usually caused by the misguided notion that house painting is simple, and it can be done by anyone by applying paint and letting it dry. What most homeowners fail to realize is the fact that painting requires a lot of skill to achieve professional results. Unless you're a professional house painter yourself, you will realize after some time why you should have hired a pro to do the job, particularly when the paint cracks appear or the paint starts peeling off. You may also get disparaging comments from your family and friends. You also need to have a lot of knowledge on house painting to get the job done right.  Ok, so what do you need to know before you hire a local painter?

Hiring a Chandler Heights Painter: The Details

Hiring professional painters in Chandler Heights to do your job is a viable alternative as long as you ensure you find a reliable and professional painting contractor who will offer affordable and nice work. Many homeowners make a big mistake when it comes to hiring contractors. They hire contractors based on price and not the quality of services they offer.
Hiring contractors to do your painting will save you some money compared to doing it yourself. Amateurs go off budget, take a lot of time and often have to repaint the same surface over and over again which results in waste of paint as well as effort. In the long run, you will probably have to hire a contractor to step in and finish the work. Hiring experienced contractors means getting it right the first time. You will end up saving on the total costs rather than overspending on amateur estimates by using a local painter in the Chandler Heights area for interior and exterior painting of your house.

Professional Cabinet Painting: Hire a Chandler Painter

Paint your cabinets with the Help of a Local Painter | 866-802-0640

One way to give your kitchen a fresh new look is to paint your kitchen cabinets.  And the best way to do it is to hire a professional painter in Chandler?

Hire a Chandler Painter, Don't Paint Your Cabinets Yourself

Painting your kitchen cabinets is best left in the hands of a Chandler painter.   The reason is very simple. If you don't know what you're doing you could conceivably damage your kitchen. First off, all cabinet drawers and cabinet doors must be removed and taken out of the kitchen. If there's anything wrong with the wood, you can damage your cabinets when you take them off your hinges, or if your home is older, the drawers can come apart if you pull them out of their trackers. Then you don't have just cabinet painting to do. You're looking at cabinet repair.
That's why a professional painter is a better idea for cabinet painting. He can quickly assess what needs to be done with both the doors of your cabinets as well as the drawers, and be able to select both the right paint as well as the correct finish for your kitchen.

How Do I Know Which Paint Finish to Use on My Kitchen Cabinets

It isn't just the right paint that matters when you're dealing with a cabinet painting project. You want to make sure that you pick the right finish. For kitchens and bathrooms, the best finish to use is either a semi-gloss or a gloss paint finish. Both of these finishes are stain resistant, as well as waterproof which in an area like a kitchen is important. Another plus? They're easy to clean up and wipe down. Another reason why you want to hire a professional to paint your cabinets is the real risk of causing damage to your cabinets by using the wrong products. For example, we once had a client who read that cabinets should be treated with water-based sealer. He ended up with yellowing cabinets as a result. In another case, one of our customers didn't keep all the hardware organized. As a result, they ended up having to replace all of their hinges and door handles because they ended up with missing pieces.
As you see, even the little mistakes can be potentially costly. A professional cabinet painter will not only make sure that your cabinets are properly prepped, but he will have a map of where every screw, and every handle goes.
Remember, while saving money is a great idea, do it the right way. Hire a professional painter in Chandler to paint your cabinets.

Your House Painter in Mesa Q&A: Can I Use Interior Latex Paint on the Outside of My Home?

Can I use interior latex paint on the outside of my home?  How hard is to paint your house?

How Hard Is It to Paint Your Home?  An Answer from a Mesa Painter

According to the article "Painting the House: Should You Hire a Pro?" by Maureen Blaney Fleitner: "Older, taller homes would be best left to a pro. Dick Seitz, Director of Communication and Training for Valspar, one of the largest global coatings manufacturers in the world, agrees. “A one-story rambler is relatively easy. A three-story Victorian with multiple dormers is a big challenge.”
Try this as a guideline: Straight exteriors on a simple, box-shaped house make for easier work. Irregularly shaped homes of two stories or more with dormers, gingerbread, or turrets, for example, tend to make for a more time-consuming and complicated project that may suggest a professional is needed.Any intricate designs? On the more ornate homes, such as those of Queen Anne style, accessibility is an issue. Ladders won’t get you into their many high nooks and crannies. Homeowners need experience and the correct equipment to be able to inspect, remedy, and paint in what can be awkward positions. If your home has delicate detailing on the first floor, decide if you are the type of person who enjoys doing detail work. If you do have the patience, a first-floor project should be right for you. Those who prefer the broad strokes might be better off leaving the detail work to a pro.
Flat or sloping ground? Seitz also suggests looking at the grade (the finished surface slant of ground ) around the house for ladder positioning. It’s a plus if all sides have flat ground up to the house. Walkouts with slopes make it difficult to safely position ladders. Also check to see if obstacles like trees, shrubs, decks, fences, vines, or electric wires will be in the way.
How much prep-work? Examine your house for potential problems that may require extensive prep work. “Wood rot, mildew, severe peeling, or alligatoring are typical siding problems,” says Seitz. “Cracked window panes, crumbling glaze, and loose caulking around trim are other issues.”" [VIEW SOURCE]
As you see, painting your home isn't as easy as it appears at first glance.  Now for the next question: can you use interior latex paint on the outside of your home?

From Your Mesa Painter: Don't Use Interior Paint to Paint the Outside of Your Home

Do not use interior paint to paint the outside of your home. Exterior house paint is designed to be resistant to the elements. Interior house paint is designed with particular finishes in mind and is far less durable than exterior house paint is.
Don't guess where painting your home is involved. Hire a local Mesa painter instead.
