Indianapolis (PRWEB) February 17, 2012
Consumers across the country are hoping to give their homes a fresh look this year, but a lot of them are planning to start small.
Fifty-seven percent of respondents to the annual Angies List project poll say theyre going to tackle aesthetic changes to their homes this year. Highly rated real estate agents on Angies List say the most popular of these small projects will be painting.
Painting projects can be great steps for the first time do-it-yourselfer, but they can also be a lot more complicated than you might initially think, said Angies List Founder Angie Hicks. If your project is going to involve a ladder or complicated patterns, it might be worth your while to bring in a professional.
Whether youre thinking of painting the outside of your home, a small room or a few rooms in your house, Hicks said homeowners need to think before they pry open the cans.
Painting can be fun and affordable, but theres a lot of prep work that you dont always see on those decorating shows, Hicks said. Make sure you know what youre getting yourself into.
For advice, Hicks went to painters who had earned high grades from Angies List members. The most common bit of advice was to stick with well-recognized brands because the better the paint, the longer it will last. Well established paint manufacturers also are more likely to have an array of compatible accent colors and have readily available stock.
