Before we closed on the house, we figured what we wanted to do first. PAINT! There were a few updates we wanted to do immediately; before we moved in. We knew it was going to be a big job and wanted all completed at the same time.

We looked at many reviews and decided on J3 Painting and so happy we did. From start to finish it was a great experience. After walking the job with Jeff, it seemed like a lot, but nothing they couldn’t handle.

With only a few exceptions, we have used Sherwin Williams in the past and landed on Agreeable Gray. This gray seems to be the “right” gray for our home. Not too blue, purple or green and yet, isn’t beige.

Our painter uses Rodda paints and thankfully were able to match it. We also needed to lighten things up so we decided on a white ceilings and ultra white trim.

The molding that was in the house matched the floors and coordinated with the cabinets, but, we decided to change the floor color so, it necessitated the white trim. Plus, I think it updates the interior as most new homes have white trim. So, molding was stripped and sanded and sprayed white.

Right after the ceiling was painted, it seemed much brighter in every room.

It was fun to see the improvements just by painting! I’ll post more before and after pictures going room to room.
