Are you stumped on color selection when it comes to kitchen painting. DC homeowners often use Premiere Painting’s professional color consultants, but even a pro needs a little guidance to match your personal style.

To develop your ideas for a professional consultation meeting, review these color selection tips for kitchen painting in Washington, DC.

1. Create an inspiration board of clippings from magazines or fabric swatches you like.
2. If your home improvement project is limited to kitchen painting, make sure to consider the hues and styles of your kitchen cabinetry, floor tiles, countertops, backsplash, and baseboards.
3. If your kitchen is open to your living space, your color may need to coordinate with other paint colors or be carried into another room entirely. You can always expand your kitchen painting to include a family room or great room to make sure the colors work well together.
4. Keep in mind how long you want to live in the house. If you are staying put for life, feel free to stick with your personal preferences. If you plan to move in the next couple of years, a more neutral paint color would be wise and could even increase the value of your home.
5. Take into account the use of the room. In a lively, busy, and conversational area like a kitchen, painting color selection should lean toward light, bright options.

You want to be sure you get a good value for your dollar in kitchen painting. DC home values have fluctuated recently and the market could be tough when you go to sell.  A well-done, professional paint job can make a world of difference.
