Here's a great winter time project: interior wall and ceiling painting.
Dangerous, yet fulfilling once completed. There are two ways to
approach a home painting project. One is do it yourself or DIY, the
other is to hire a professional painting contractor. There are advantages
and disadvantages to each.
Everyone at some time in their life ends up painting a wall, trimming a
window casement, or painting something in their home or apartment,
or even their car, or recreational vehicle. The results can be outstanding
and the entire process can be very rewarding emotionally and financially.
The downside to DIY is that it can be a painfully long process and
results are sometimes a mixed conglomeration of streaked paint and
lots of dripping and paint platters on floors and furniture. In some
situations, the overall project may cost almost as much as hiring a
local painting contractor. If you are in Alabama, contact this painting company.
If you've never hired a painting contractor previously, here are some things to look for and questions to ask. ATTRIBUTION: Some of the following content comes directly from Angie's List.
