Interior painting tips from your trusted local home improvement contractor in Manhattan and Brooklyn
If you’ve lived in New York City, you are no stranger to grit and grime. Many residential complexes were builtpre-war, and while an aged interior setting has a certain charm to it, the lack of a proper coat of paint or maintenance can not only cause eyesores but can also pose a health hazard to residents.
Here are a few signs that your walls are in need of expert help:
- It’s been at least a decade: If your home hasn’t been painted in over 10 years, it’s more than ready for a shiny new coat. There’s sure to be multiple issues such as scuffs, dents, peeling paint, or more. Save time and stress by hiring affordable painting contractors to assess your interior paint, handle pre-paint fixes and finish the job, hassle-free!
- Paint fixes in high-prep areas: Kitchens and bathrooms are two rooms that require heavy prep work before the actual paint job for many reasons - these interior spaces have to withstand moisture, grease, and steam. Also, the paint applied here is often more durable and of different type (in order, for example, to prevent mold). Get these rooms repainted at least every 5 years by kitchen and bathroom painters who know what kind of paint works best for those surfaces.
- Excessive paint damage: If your ceilings, window trims, or other interior surfaces have succumbed to harsh conditions and show a high amount of peeling, have mold, are water-stained or water-logged, it’s time to call in the maintenance crew. These issues can prove injurious to your health and home, and may be linked to several other fixes required around the house including proper insulation and water drainage. Let those with the right experience deal with it and make your house feel like home again after a fresh repainting job!
