Choosing the best paint for each room will require professionals to weigh many factors, such as its quality, safety, cost, appearance, and durability. Here are some things your painter will consider when working in your home:

• Overall lifespan: Painters should choose high-grade paint in rooms in constant contact with skin oils, moisture, and abrasions to prevent wear and tear. They may also need thinner or less expensive paint for remote areas, like ceilings, to save money on unnecessary expenses.
• Mold & moisture resistance: If painting in damp areas, such as the bathroom or garage, painters will choose an option formulated to hold up in humid conditions and have antimicrobial properties to resist mildew and bacterial growth.
• Compatibility with the surface: Painters choose options that suit the application. In well-lit areas, like a sunroom, paint needs to hold up to UV rays without fading its colors. Semigloss paint is ideal for doors, windows, trim, and shutters, providing added protection and visual appeal. And with surfaces that have many imperfections, a matte finish will best complement the area.
• VOC levels: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says most conventional paints and coatings contain Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which are dangerous. An experienced painting company will advise you on the potential health hazards of these chemicals, which products are safest, and how to manage any VOC risk.

A new coat of exterior paint can totally change the appearance of a home. But if the paint attracts mold, weathers easily, or fades quickly, these benefits won't last long. Here are traits needed in new exterior paint:

• Strong adherence: You want paint to adhere to the surfaces where it is applied. Without a strong adherence, paint will peel, flake, chalk, blister, pick up dirt, and experience many problems.
• Flexibility: You want exterior paint to flex and compress with building materials as they change shape and size with temperature and moisture levels.
• Fade resistance: You want your exterior paint job to last, so it should be able to maintain its color and gloss for years to come regardless of weather, temperature, UV rays, and other outdoor elements.
• Chalking resistance: Chalking happens when weathering causes white, chalky powder to form on the paint's surface. Your paint should be able to resist chalking for its lifespan.
• Stain & fungal resistance: You don't want exterior paint to attract dirt or be susceptible to mold, algae, or mildew growth.

• Research: Researching paint colors can spark inspiration for your home. Visit the blogs of your favorite designers to see what colors they use in areas where you plan on repainting.
• Look to your neighbors: Do you want your home to blend in or stand out? Look at your neighborhood to see any color combinations you like or dislike.
• Painting consultation: Many painters offer free color consultations with designers whether you sign a contract or not. With Surv, we will introduce ourselves, help you understand the process, and offer professional insights on which paint colors will best suit your home.

Painting pricing depends on many factors, including:

• The surface's condition
• The type of surface
• The height/width of the home or area
• The colors selected
