Technology Help for Choosing Paint Color

Technology Help for Choosing Paint Color

One of the benefits of painting inside or out is the ability to make a big change with your paint colors. But where do you start? Some people (the lucky few!) know exactly what they want, but most people spend a lot of time agonizing over the choices. The colors and combinations seem endless! One tool you can use early in the process is online help. Paint suppliers like Kelly-Moore and Sherwin-Williams have pages on their websites where you can scroll and choose colors to put side by side to make a palette or even upload a photo of your room and impose colors on that. Because computer screens and printers will never be able to give you a completely accurate color impression, you should follow up the online research with actual samples of the colors you have narrowed down. One of the benefits of starting your color ideas online is the freedom to look at options that you may assume are “crazy” or out of your comfort zone. Go ahead; see what that deep teal accent wall may look like next to your soft neutral walls in the office. What about bright orange in your kid’s room? You may hate it, or you may love it, but with no money spent on samples you get a beginning idea of what you may like that’s just a bit outside the box. Even if you’re not ready to pull the trigger on the paint job yet, it’s fun to play with the online color renderings. Give it a try at: http://kellymoore.com/color or http://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/.

Bud was always available and extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to go that extra step and also explain things thoroughly.

Brooks did a fantastic job on our exterior and interior paint jobs. Quality was high, price was reasonable, and the team was extremely professional and detail-oriented. Mark was our crew lead and the team performed a number of exterior wood repairs, a door re-stain, interior and exterior painting. Mark clearly takes a lot of pride in his work and went above and beyond to ensure the work was high-quality, including finding exact matching siding to fix dry rot, and performing minor repairs that weren't even included in the quote. He and the team were all consistently positive and personable, joking with each other throughout the day, while also genuinely complimenting each other on the quality of their work. It was great to see, and that positivity definitely showed through the work they did. We couldn't be happier with the end result.

You are an excellent company and I couldn't be any happier with your work. This is your second job for me and both were excellent.

Donald S., Realtor

They treat their employees in a fair manner resulting in happy workers. Company is well run. I really like the crew that was here, they were very comfortable to have around.

Consummate professionals! We hired Brooks to repaint the exterior of our house, and they did a fantastic job. The paint looks wonderful, everyone was also on time, friendly, and respectful of our property. Exceptional communication through the entire process. I was worried about damage to the landscaping near the house (bad previous experience with another outfit), but they were all very understanding and the crew was super careful. Did what they said they would do with no weirdness, no smoking, no radio, and they cleaned up after themselves nicely. This picky customer is very happy!

Chris and Gabriel were amazing. Corey was patient and helpful in answering questions and while I decided on colors. The office was easy to contact and had good follow-through. Thank you so much to Brooks for a job I could not possibly be happier with. Feel free to use me as a reference!

We are long time happy customers with many positive experiences with Brooks Painting. We have appreciated the assistance (and patience) with selecting paint colors, the professionalism of the staff and the high quality of workmanship. We recently had some interior painting done and the crew was on time, neat, careful inside the house and very easy to work with. They also cheerfully handled some unexpected drywall repair. I highly recommend Brooks Painting.

Teri Greenfield

Very professional. Painters were very accommodating on the little things.

Claude V., Dixon

We chose Brooks Painting based on their excellent reputation. It was an excellent choice! We had them do a complete exterior and almost complete interior painting of our two story house. They were done separately, while we were out of town. We are very pleased with the quality of the work. They even fixed up a few mistakes made by a crew that painted a portion of our interior ceilings a month prior (removal of asbestos popcorn ceiling), at no extra charge. Cleanup was great, also. They repaired some dry rot that was uncovered (extra charge, but worth it), and they even moved furniture back into place as well as put back the curtain rods that I had taken down, which wasn't expected. I highly recommend them, and will use them again for any future paint jobs.
