DIY vs. Call a Pro
Interior painting is one of the most rewarding DIY projects. Use quality paint and brushes, tape edges carefully, apply two coats, and maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks. Remove outlet covers and light fixtures for clean lines.
Call a professional when:
Hire a professional for high ceilings, extensive prep work (wallpaper removal, lead paint encapsulation), multi-room projects on a tight timeline, or when you want a flawless finish.
