Which Paint Is Best to Use on Interior Work?

When you're choosing the kind of paint and finish to use there are a lot of different factors to consider. 

Here are a few considerations to make when trying to decide on paint types below.

Long Lasting Inside Paint

How many different paints would you use on the kids' room? Ask a certified painter, and you might be surprised by the answer

This is because a professional painting contractor will know that while the walls of a children's room may need to be stain-resistant, durable, and scrubable, your kids aren't likely to reach the ceiling any time soon. They're likely to choose a different kind of paint based on the lighting and traffic of the particular room and area in question.

By the same token, a higher grade or paint finish might be needed in areas prone to constant wear and tear and high traffic areas. A painter is likely to choose a high-grade paint for a doorway, for example, which will be in constant contact with passersby, pets, toddlers, kids and other forces that wear on the paint finish.

Mold- & Moisture-Resistant Paints

Rooms like bathrooms, hallways, kitchens, basements can be more humid than other rooms or areas of the house. This means your newly painted area could be ruined quickly if the correct materials are not used.

There are types of paint out there that contain antimicrobial properties to help resist mildew and bacterial growth.

For example, in the basement paints may come into contact with damp concrete and water vapor can make its way through brick, stucco, fiber cement, cinder block, etc. When this happens it often flakes and peels off due to the humid environment.

This is because water can react with high PH in the masonry to hydrolyze the vinyl acetate portion of paint binders, which will badly deteriorate the coating films.

This moisture can also create a buildup of a white, powdery mineral salt known as "efflorescence" behind the paint. Together, these forces combine to cause improperly selected paints to peel, blister, and crack off surfaces. 

A Sophisticated, Professional Appeal

Is your paint designed for the maximum impact for the room it's going on? A well-lit area such as a sun room will need a paint that's able to hold up to UV rays without fading its colors, while a semigloss paint is ideal for doors, windows, trim and shutters -- providing added protection and visual appeal.

If you're painting a surface with many imperfections, you'll find that it's best complemented by paint that has a matte finish. This type of paint minimizes the reflective light that tends to highlights flaws in the wall, keeping your space looking as good as possible.

Consumer Reports (June 2007) warns that companies are constantly reformulating their paints and stains -- particularly as the EPA tightens its safety regulations. An experienced, painter will be up-to-date on evolving brands.

Hire A Fantastic Interior Painting Company

As you may know, the difference in workmanship from one company to the next can be pretty dramatic. When choosing the contrator that's best for you, we recommend considering these factors:

Professional Reputation: A company is best represented by its former clients. Ask your contractor if they have references available, or if it'd be possible to drive by a job they previously completed. You'll also want to research the company online to see if they have positive reviews on online ratings sites, as well as their reputation with the BBB.

Experience & Training: Does the the company have certified experienced tradesmen on hand, or is a large part of their staff college kids and "helpers"?

You'll want your painters to be licensed, bonded, and insured. Membership in a local trade association is also a good sign of an experienced, dedicated company.

Communication & Contracts: Make sure that your painters are willing to answer questions, work with you, and suit the work to your needs.

All proposed work should be included on a written contract that includes the company's name, address, office and cell phone numbers, and their professional license number.
