Should I Hire a Painter or Do It Myself?

Q: I want to paint a few rooms in my house. Should I hire a painter or do it myself?

A: When the time comes to paint your home, hiring a pro is the way to go.

Many DIYers think “why hire a professional painter when I can do it myself?” While some projects are small enough to do well and in a timely manner, most paint projects would benefit from hiring a professional. Not only will professional painters do it well, but they will also do it quickly.

These few tips will describe what is involved with painting the house’s interior and why hiring a professional painter might be worth the cost.  

Understand What Goes into Painting a House

Before painting your house, there will be a lot of prep work.

• Painters will move and cover furniture.
• Painters will cover and protect the floors.
• Tape the trim, windows, outlets, and other features on the wall.
• The walls need to be prepped: nail holes, sanding, or removing wallpaper.

All of these steps take time and effort. Professional painters know how to do it properly and quickly. Read this quick guide on what to ask a professional painter and learn more about what Paintzen painters can do. 

When wondering if you should hire a professional painter, consider the time and effort you have to finish the job. If you do not have hours available to dedicate to a single room, it may be worthwhile to hire a painter to do the work for you.
