Why is Quarantine the time to repaint? 

 All home improvement paint jobs can be throughout the house, or you can make the rooms that visitors frequent or those you use most a priority. Identifying your favorite areas to start the work on can come with the process of choosing the type of paint, the color, and the design you want to bring to space. When choosing colors, make sure that you choose lighter colors (white, eggshell, or beige) to make rooms look larger while putting darker colors on walls for accent pieces. Painting is a form of expression that represents who you are and brings life to this space. 

 Some walls in your home need to be repainted more often, for instance, the kitchen, dining room, or living room due to the frequent use of day-to-day wear and tear. Depending on if you use high-quality paint in these rooms, you won?t have to worry about getting the walls repainted for years. Interior paint does not need to update as frequently as the exterior but here are some spaces you need to pay attention too: 

  • Kitchen: The kitchen is one of the most attentive areas with dirt, messy fingers, and food splatters on the wall. These instances bring on the need torepainted more frequently, and professional painters will use the most durable paint to ensure it lasts longer.
  • Dining Room/Living Room: Depending on if these rooms do not see as much traction, this area will not need to be painted as often. Durable paint will last 5-7 years in this space.
