Preparing Your Home Or Office

If you prefer to forego the stress of do-it-yourself painting, then you may have already started searching for a professional painter to paint the inside of your home or office. Since you live or work in Novato, CA, or a nearby city, TCS Quality Painting can help you get your home or office painted. Finding the contractor or company to complete your interior painting project is only the first step in getting the project complete. You should also prepare the home or office to make it easy for the painters to get the job done. Preparing the space scheduled for painting is essential to having a positive experience and saving time and money.

Below are some simple steps YOU can take to ensure the success of your interior painting project.

Protect Furniture

Remove small furnishings like a coffee table or light stand from a room scheduled for painting. Large pieces of furniture that are difficult to move out of the room should be placed in the center of the room and covered with an old sheet or drop cloth. This enables the painter(s) to move around the furniture and get the job done.

Electronics and Appliances

As with the furniture, items that can be removed from a room that is scheduled for painting should be removed. Items that cannot be removed should be placed in the center of the room and covered if possible. These simple actions will allow the painter(s) to move efficiently as they complete your painting project.

Wall Hanging and Ornaments

This type of item will obstruct the painter(s) and will need to be taken down and removed from the room or area scheduled to be painted. Wrap the items in bubble wrap, items like pictures, clocks, mirrors, etc., to protect them from breaking and store them away in marked boxes. Whenever possible, it is best to move them to another room.

Soft Furnishings

Rugs and mats and other soft items should be removed from areas scheduled for painting whenever possible. These items might be ruined if left in areas to be painted. These items can be put back after the paint has dried.

Prep and Clean

Cleaning the walls to be painted can make a huge difference. Dust, dirt and stains on the walls can build up overtime. Even if you don’t see them at the moment, they will be more visible when the wall is repainted. The primer and paint will stick to the walls better and provide a longer lasting high-quality look once the walls is painted.

Vacate Space

Your time spent in your home or office will be restricted during painting. You may need to completely vacate the space to be painted. Plan well and take all your necessities with you to avoid needing things that may be difficult or impossible to access while the painting is in process. Keep children and pets out of area being painted to avoid paint spills and accidental injuries.

Benefits of Preparing Your Home or Office Before the Painter Arrives

Your painter(s) will love that you have done some preparation. You could even ask the painter if there are any specific things you can do to make his job easier. As a result of your preparation, the painter can begin work as soon as he arrives at the work site. You will not have to worry about your belongings being damaged. Most importantly, this will save you time, money and aggravation.
