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/. Then, when you’re ready to hire a painting contractor and make your final color choices, give Brooks Painting a call at 530-753-5074 to set up your free estimate appointment in the greater Davis / Sacramento area.

Mark and the team from Brook’s Painting are exceptional at their jobs. We recently renovated a 5000sqft home and they did all the painting. Their attention to detail and investment in our project is so appreciated, and we knew we were in good hands with them. The value they add by identifying issues, making suggestions and going the extra mile to deliver quality work and make sure we are happy with our home is such a breath of fresh air. I would hire this team and company for any future work in a heartbeat and can’t say enough how amazing they are!

Hiring Brooks Painting was an easy and professional process the whole way through, from the estimate to the completion of having my very high walls edged, where I was unable to reach them. Crew Leader Eric was prompt and super capable, which was a relief since he had to maneuver and climb a very tall ladder. He was also in the process of teaching a newer painter and I admired his positive and encouraging manner. In addition, he was willing to respond to my requests with ease. No regrets here! The edging looks amazing and only took 4 hours to complete.

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.

Brooks Painting has be in business a long time in our area. As a native resident we have seen and heard of their professional & quality painting. In looking for bids on painting our house Brooks was referred numerous times. When Jeremy came out to meet us we were sold on using their services and looked no further. Every aspect of this company was very upfront, professional and made us feel safe, valued and comfortable hiring them. The office staff kept good communication with us. The color matching was perfect. The crew showed up on time, were respectful and did a great job from prep to the final end of the project. The warranty offered was a plus and the liability coverage gave us peace of mind also. The price was well worth all that was included in the project so we had little to do but move our stuff away from the house. Thank you Brooks painting, crew and staff for making our home new again :)

My experience with Brooks Painting has been outstanding, and, if it were an option on Google, I would assign 100 stars to their work. Mark and his crew were exceptional in painting both the inside and outside of my Central Davis home. They were considerate, careful, and respectful of my furnishings and yard. Kristen and her office staff were also responsive to my queries and were timely in scheduling the work. Thank you Brooks Painting for assisting in transforming my house into a beautiful home!
