Everyone loves a DIY project. It may be tempting to try and take the job of commercial painting for your business into your own hands. After all, it sounds like you’d be saving money. However, there are a number of factors to consider when performing a commercial paint job. It may seem just like residential painting, but it’s a whole different ball game. Here is everything you need to know about why you should hire a commercial painter.

Efficiency

A professional has years of experience behind their knowledge. They know what it takes to give your business the best commercial paint job in the most efficient amount of time without compromising quality or safety. They’ll have the latest technology available to them, and the tools needed to get the job done quickly. If you choose to DIY this kind of large-scale project, you could find that it takes you much longer than expected.

Expertise

Expert commercial painters know their stuff. They know trade secrets that the everyday person may not. They have a wealth of knowledge about paint types, materials, and how to make your commercial paint job stand the test of time. You’ll be less likely to run into any unforeseen hiccups with a commercial painter, because they’ll know how to prevent the problems before they even come up. Their expertise can allow you to rest easy, knowing your business is in the hands of a professional.

Safety

Commercial painting can sometimes be a dangerous job. Professionals have all the necessary safety equipment and well trained teams to make sure the task gets done safely.

They Will Save You Money

This is probably the number one reason you should go with a commercial painter. They are efficient, and saving you time means saving you money. They know how to work with a business’s schedule, which means you’ll spend less time under construction, and more time making $$$. Additionally, certified commercial painters have access to their materials in bulk at wholesale rates, which also helps to lower the cost on your end.

When we think of gathering in the home, the living room probably comes to mind. However, according to surveys, the kitchen is the most used room in the house. Some even estimate that we spend around 12% of our lives in our kitchens!

With so much of our time spent in this space, it’s important to consider what kind of environment your kitchen design creates. Did you know that color is a powerful communication tool? According to the psychology of color, the color of your walls, cabinets, and appliances can all have a profound impact on your mood.

What is your kitchen saying?

Red

Ever wonder why so many restaurants incorporate red into their decor, especially their tablecloths? Well, that’s because red makes you hungry! Red is considered an energizing color, which increases your heart rate, and thus, your appetite. Orange and yellow have a similar effect. This color can be a powerful tool when used as an accent wall, or in dishware and towels, as seen above.

White

White evokes a sense of calm and serenity. It also feels clean and classy – making it especially popular at the moment! White makes a space feel open and airy, but we recommend you ground this color with contrasting tones like dark grey. You can also use interesting texture and patterns to add depth, as seen in the tiles of the wall above. These details help to keep the room feeling clean and sleek, but not cold or sterile.

Green

As one would expect, green reminds us of nature. It’s also a color that makes us feel safe and balanced. Whether in the form of houseplants or a bold accent wall like the room featured above, adding green to your kitchen is a unique and beautiful way of making your kitchen feel fresh.

Blue

Blue is considered a calming color. Using elements of blue may help you relax if your kitchen is a space you often feel stressed in. Having the opposite effect of red, blue makes some people feel sleepy, which may make them lose their appetite. However, blue also has a cooling effect, and can help a kitchen in hot climates feel a little less oppressive.

Autumn days bring to mind shades of warm orange, mustard yellow, and crisp apple red. Over the last few years, we’ve seen neutrals make a comeback in French Country and Farmhouse style interior decor. We love our neutrals, and those pops of seasonal orange, yellow, and red are here to stay.

However, here are a few color trends popping up this season to bring into your home alongside those classic shades to create a truly unique, cozy space this Fall.

Olive Branch and Green Bee

Green has made quite the splash in 2021, from an increasing interest in houseplants to statement emerald velvet couches. However, these shades of green are a little more subtle and subdued than their jewel-toned cousin. Olive Branch brings the delicate hues of nature into your home, adding a breath of something fresh against the browns of Autumn. It’s a soft, earthy shade that can easily transition into any of the other seasons. Green Bee is much more rich, and a bolder statement that would be stunning used with a deft hand throughout a home. It’s a complex sea-green, and perfect for transitioning from Summer.

Spring Lake

Don’t be deceived by the name, this soft blue is pure coziness. It is a neutral blue, pairing perfectly with the other neutrals we’ve come to know and love. Place this lovely shade against Olive Branch in your home and you’ll instantly feel like snuggling up with a thick, comfy throw blanket. Going for blue in Autumn is daring, to be sure, but it will transition beautifully into Winter, and remind you of blossoms to come in Spring.

Winery

Certainly, reds have their rightful place in the Autumnal color lineup. However, this rich, almost burgundy, red takes it to the next level. This color is deep and romantic, with tones of violet throughout to give the shade some complexity. It looks and feels like everything harvest time, and makes you want to settle in for the night with a delicious glass of red wine in hand.

Soybean

Yes, more neutrals! We simply can’t get enough. Although it may not seem like a particularly “unique” color choice, what makes it stand out is just how classic it is. This color is on the warmer end of a cool-toned neutral, reading almost blonde at first glance. It’s a shade that brings to mind golden wheat fields and crisp apple pies.
