Before You DIY

Consider DIY Factors Before You Paint

There’s no doubt taking on many of your own renovations or DIY home maintenance chores can save a lot of money. Some of the projects may even turn out to be a fun learning experience. However, our crew has spoken to countless “weekend warriors of home improvement” who ultimately got frustrated with the complexity and learning curve that comes with producing an attractive exterior or interior painting job.

Don’t Paint Yourself Into a DIY Corner

Even if you’re inclined to do-it-yourself for most projects, it makes sense to at least consult a professional painting contractor. You will likely find that the equipment, time, materials, supplies, and overall stress are far more costly than hiring a pro! There are many factors related to interior and exterior painting projects that even the most skilled DIY’ers aren’t prepared to deal with. Experts like Connie Nola, owner of Academy Painting, LLC, have spent years developing techniques and tricks that yield high quality workmanship. Hiring an experienced professional like Connie will ensure your paint project will stand up to time and the grueling humid weather in South Louisiana! One of America’s most trusted DIY websites, BobVila.com, has an excellent article to help you determine if your project is worth taking on yourself, or probably needs to be handled by a pro. Take a few minutes to read the article. Once you decide, contact Connie at (225) 806-2068 or send her a message before you invest too much time, effort and money!
