Ways to Prepare Your Home for a Professional Paint Crew

Deciding to hire and work with a professional crew for your home painting project means investing in a high-quality paint job that’s both guaranteed to impress and last for a long time. Also, doing so delivers value for money compared to stocking up on all the materials and equipment if you were to take on your project on your own.

However, unless you have an agreement with the painters beforehand, it may be up to you to prepare your home before they arrive. Here are some tips to consider a few days before the project’s start date.

Remove Wall Hangings

Artwork, mirrors and photo frames get in the way of the painters’ job. If you are looking to apply a new coat of paint in one of the rooms in your home, be sure to take down the decorative features hanging on your walls. Place them somewhere safe for the duration of the painting project.

Relocate Freestanding Fixtures

The same also goes for ornaments and other freestanding fixtures. You or your painting crew may cover them up with protective sheets or tarps, but moving them as far out of harm’s way as possible is still a smart idea. If you’re painting your home’s exterior, see to it that potted plants and other pieces of furniture on your patio or deck are relocated.

Make Way for the Pros

The easier it is for the crew to get the job done, the faster and more efficient the project will be done. Make sure your home is accessible inside and out. Remove any obstruction that can get in the painters’ way. Think about the pathways leading toward the potential work zone and the location where the pros will position their paint buckets and other pieces of equipment.
