At Tomms Property Solutions, we know a quality coat of paint can completely refresh your space. Whether you’re updating a bedroom, living room, or another area, the right approach makes all the difference. As a trusted painting service in Minneapolis and St. Paul, we’re here to help homeowners achieve flawless results. Here’s what you need to know:
Choosing the Right Colors of Paint
- Bedrooms: Soft blues, greens, and neutrals create a relaxing atmosphere – but this is your space. Do whatever your heart desires!
- Living Rooms: Warm grays, beiges, and deep greens add comfort and style.
- Accent Walls: A bold color can add character without overwhelming the space.
- Trim & Ceilings: Classic white or contrasting tones can add sophistication.
Selecting the Right Paint Finish
- Flat & Matte Paint: Hides imperfections but is harder to clean—best for bedrooms.
- Eggshell & Satin Paint: Durable with a slight sheen, ideal for living rooms and hallways.
- Semi-Gloss & Gloss Paint: Great for trim and high-traffic areas, much easier to clean.
Prepping for a Flawless Finish
- Move or cover furniture to protect from paint splatters.
- Clean walls and patch imperfections for smooth application.
- Use painter’s tape for crisp edges and apply primer when needed.
Trusted Painting Technique
- Cut in edges with a brush before rolling.
- Use a quality roller and apply in a “W” pattern for even coverage.
- Apply multiple coats as needed, letting each layer dry properly.
Post-Painting Cleanup & Maintenance
- Remove painter’s tape carefully for clean lines.
- Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use.
- Keep leftover paint for touch-ups in high-traffic areas.
- Wipe walls with a damp cloth to keep them looking fresh. (Please wait for your paint to dry for at least 24 hours)
