The following is a guest blog post from a Wilmington, NC homeowner:

If you’re anything like us, you’ve spent years accumulating stuff in closets, drawers, dressers, and cabinets throughout your house. And then, every once in a while, you go crazy and go through every closet and every stack of unorganized stuff to create donation piles, Craigslist piles, and piles of trash. Well, we finally did all of that this weekend.

It all started when we talked about painting the upstairs bedrooms of our house. I insisted that we not dive into that project until we had a plan for those rooms. They’ve taken many forms since we moved into this house – spare bedroom, office, exercise room, baby room, toddler room, second baby room, kids room, play room…. While it’s good to have flexibility with your space, I felt it was time to find a purpose for the rooms and decorate them accordingly, including choosing appropriate paint colors.

The first order of business was clearing out the closets. That was huge. Once we tackled that and made many trips to donation-based stores, consignment shops, and the electronics recycling center, we started moving around furniture and making a plan for furniture we wanted to part with and what we wanted to replace with new or ‘gently used’ pieces.

And now, finally (although it was only a weekend, it feels like years because we’ve been thinking about it for that long), we are ready to think about painting the bedrooms. And I couldn’t be more excited.

Of course we’re going to use a professional painting contractor in Wilmington, NC to complete this project. The efficiency and expertise of a professional painter is well worth the expense. Especially when there are windows, mouldings, and closets involved – all items that take extra long to complete and involve different paint colors, fresh brushes and the dreaded taping for inexperienced painters. A professional painting contractor has the materials necessary – brushes, rollers, tarps, drapes, ladders, etc. – for an efficient and expert painting job.

Additionally, we have some cracks in our drywall that need repair and a wooden dresser that needs refinishing. A paint contractor such as Colour Solutions can help with these projects and get everything done in a timely and efficient manner. A project that could drag on for weeks or even months with us trying to paint in our free time can be done in just a couple of days using a painting company.
