It’s hard to believe that summer is past and we’re already halfway through fall. Pumpkins decorate front porches and Halloween costumes have been chosen. The holidays are truly right around the corner. If you’re dreaming of a freshly painted Christmas home, call now to schedule. We’re making a list and checking it twice.

Plan Ahead to Suit Your Schedule

Early planning is your best bet to secure a work schedule that dovetails with your own. When hiring a professional painting contractor, start with an estimate in person. Not only will you get to meet the folks working in your home, your contractor will learn exactly what you want and they’ll evaluate the scope of the job. A quality contractor will be able to tell you how much it will cost, how long it should take, and when they can begin. If you have additional questions, now is the time to ask.

The Right Painter at the Right Time for the Job

Not all painting contractors have the same skill set. If you have need of historic restoration services, planning ahead ensures you’ll have the craftspeople with the proper experience for the job. Restoration can involve working with historical committees to meet neighborhood requirements. Contractors specializing in historic surface restorations also bring a broader knowledge perspective that addresses the entire job, from plaster repairs to period-specific hardware. A little research beforehand will ensure you have the right painter for the right job at the right time.

Planned Painting and Your Budget

Once the decision has been made, make plans for an estimate as soon as possible. Having all the information at your fingertips now ensures you’ll be able to budget adequately, incorporating home improvements into your holiday plan early.

Working together with a local, quality professional, you’ll be able to make those holiday home painting projects a reality this year. All it takes is a little planning.
