Why Choosing the Right Paint is an Important Step in Your Upcoming Kitchen Makeover

Choosing Kitchen PaintRepainting your kitchen is one of the fastest ways to give it a fresh look without embarking on an exorbitantly expensive remodeling project. However, even though repainting your kitchen is an affordable renovation, you’ll still want to get long-lasting and tasteful results for your investment. This is why you’ll need to put some thought into choosing the best kitchen paint for your project.

Choosing the Best Paint for Kitchen Wear & Tear

If you’re like most homeowners, your kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in your house. It’s where you cook your family’s meals, make coffee or tea every day, and soak dishes in steaming hot water. There are plenty of opportunities to splash tomato sauce on the walls, spill juice that leaves an unsightly stain on your cabinet doors, or prepare a savory dish that leaves a greasy film behind on painted surfaces. Moreover, because people often like to gather in the kitchen area for a cozy chat, your kitchen walls may be more prone to collecting fingerprints than the walls of other rooms in your home.

Indeed, there’s a good chance your kitchen is the room where you spend the most time cleaning, apart from your bathrooms. For this reason, you’ll want to select a type of paint that allows stains and grime to wipe away easily, and can withstand frequent washing without losing its luster. And, because the kitchen is often a warm and humid part of your home, you’ll want to choose paint that will resist cracking, peeling, and mildew growth, even after years of exposure to typical kitchen conditions.

Experts often recommend high-sheen paints, such as satin or semi-gloss, for use in the kitchen because they hold up well in moist, high-traffic conditions. However, every homeowner’s kitchen is unique. For example, if your kitchen walls have incurred some dings and dents over the years, glossy paint may highlight those more than you’d like. It’s best to rely on the expertise of experienced professional painters, like those who work for Southern Painting, for help in selecting the best paint for your home.

What’s the Best Color for Your Kitchen Paint?

Choosing a new color for your kitchen is probably the part of your project that you’re most looking forward to, and you should certainly select colors that allow you to show off your personal sense of style. Here too, however, you’ll want to consider a number of factors beyond personal taste if you want to make the most of your kitchen painting project. For example:

  • Will the paint color you’re considering make your kitchen look cramped and dark when you’d prefer a bright, airy ambiance?
  • Does the color you have in mind transition well to the adjoining rooms of the home, or will there be a jarring contrast?
  • What about the light in your kitchen? Will the color you’re leaning toward look as beautiful when it’s awash in the sunlight streaming in through your windows as it does in the artificial lighting you depend on at night?

At Southern Painting, we know how important choosing the right kitchen paint color is, for both your walls and cabinets. We offer expert color consultations that can help you avoid the pitfalls that many homeowners encounter when they opt for a paint color that turns out to be less than desirable.

What’s more, we use only premium paint products from leading manufacturers like Sherwin-Williams®, Benjamin Moore®, and PPG Pittsburgh Paints®. This is the best way to ensure beautiful results that you’ll be proud to see and show off to guests for many years.

Absolutely phenomenal company to work with. Did a fantastic job and was very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend them to others!

We needed to have some exterior and interior painting done and were also on a tight schedule. Southern painting did a great job and worked with our schedule. The house looks amazing! The entire process was very easy and everyone was friendly and professional.

I can't believe the professional care we experienced with Southern Painting! The crew was very knowledgeable, experienced and took care of our older home like it was their own.

I would definitely hire Southern Painting again. Professional, trustworthy and conscientious.
