Wall and Ceiling Painting in Nashville, TN
Are you ready to give your Nashville home a little extra wow factor?
Sure, it all starts with exterior painting and making sure your curb appeal is right where you want it to be. But the moment you step through your door you have an incredible opportunity to create a specific look, style, and vibe. Color psychology and theory might feel abstract, but it gets real tangible real fast when you find that perfect paint.
Keep in mind that color trends in Nashville have stepped beyond those standard cool neutrals. They still have their place, especially if you’re looking for a palette with universal appeal before your home goes on the market, but if you’re painting for yourself it really pays to dig a bit deeper. Give your walls some personality of their own, or help them reflect yours.
No matter what your vision and goals might be, Nash Painting has the skills and experience you need to make the most of your project. And this goes for commercial painting too. It’s equally important to keep your business’ colors on point and on brand, with a painter who can finish your projects in an unobtrusive way.
Benefits of wall and ceiling painting
Here are just a few of the reasons why painting walls and ceilings is one of the most popular (and powerful!) home improvement projects you can tackle:
Nothing refreshes a room like paint. Smudges, scrapes, bumps, nail holes, cracks… They all add up, and when you thoroughly prep and paint those surfaces the difference is immediate and incredible.
Painting is a relatively fast process. Compared to a remodel, painting offers a direct route from where you are to where you want to be.
Painting is relatively cost-effective. You do get what you pay for, making it essential that you invest in a quality paint job from a painter who won’t cut corners. But still, compared to more invasive alternatives, paint offers a lot of value for the dollar.
Painting walls and ceilings adds instant marketability. Whether you’re just keeping your Nashville home in tip-top shape or getting it ready for sale, fresh paint can move the needle on your home’s value and how quickly it sells. Ask any realtor!
Interior painting is fun. If you have the right painter in your corner and the right palette picked out, painting is definitely rewarding.
Understanding our wall and ceiling painting process
As we just mentioned, painting is fun, but that doesn’t mean you can rush the process to get to the finish line. For the best finish quality, you have to invest time up front in preparation and repairs.
It’s also important to note that this is where painting companies differ.
The cheaper, bargain painters tend to skimp on these early steps, and unfortunately too many homeowners don’t realize the difference until they actually see the finished product. Know your estimate, and know what you value.
To help provide context, here’s how we prep walls and ceilings for paint:
We cover your floor in paper, with perimeter paper for all hard floors, and perimeter paper and drop cloths for carpeted areas.
We patch any holes using a specialized patching product that minimizes dust during the sanding process.
Next, we pole sand your walls to remove old roller fibers, irregularities, drips from past paint jobs, etc.
We’ll spot prep the trim as needed.
And then we paint!
Why choose Nash Painting?
Well, because we’re committed to doing the job the right way. We’ll never be your cheapest option and never would want to be - that’s not how we’ve built our reputation. It’s more important to us that we provide the absolute best paint job possible that meets our own standards and exceeds expectations.
We also use high-quality interior paint from Sherwin-Williams, never the bargain brands that don’t cover or last as well. You’ll be able to spot the difference right away!
Wall and ceiling painting FAQ
Q. What wall and ceiling painting services do you offer?
We’re a full service painting company, meaning that we can help with any painting need: drywall repair, painting walls, ceilings, trim, and wallpaper removal too.
Q. When should I repaint the walls and ceilings in my home?
Oftentimes it’s personal preference, and interior painting is totally elective. If you’d like a new look, are tired of your colors, want to remove wallpaper and need fresh paint, or maybe are prepping your home for sale, those are all good reasons to paint. Sometimes Nashville customers decide to paint after some sort of event too, like water damage that was repaired but left a stain, or a drywall patch that needs to be repaired and painted after doing electrical work.
Q. Does wall and ceiling painting increase property value?
Yes, it absolutely can, and marketability too. A house with dreary, dated colors just won’t move as quickly as one with smooth, beautiful walls and updated style.
Q. How long does the paint last?
It really depends on your home and the level of wear and tear it encounters. A retired couple can enjoy the same paint for years and years, while a home full of little ones might need to be touched up and repainted more frequently. The key is to set your paint up for success by using the best prep techniques and products.
Q. How should I choose the color?
This can be a tough one! If you don’t anticipate living in your home for long, or you’re prepping it for resale, a more neutral palette can be a good choice. If this is your Nashville forever home, or just a place you’d like to be in for a substantial amount of time, pick colors you love. Pinterest and Instagram can be helpful resources, or you can connect with a professional color consultant. If you work with our team at Nash Painting, we partner with a very talented, local design pro who can certainly help.
