Christmas is over and New Years’ at an end, that means one thing, its Tax Time my friend. If you’re like nearly three-quarters of Americans, you may be getting back a sizable refund from Uncle Sam. And while you may be tempted to go on a little vacation or super-size your television, you may want to consider a little sprucing up around the old homestead.
Not only is tax season a great time for home improvement because of the extra financial incentive (because it helps) but it is a great opportunity to get a strong start to your new year. Spring will be here before we know it and who wouldn’t like to cross off a few items from their to-do list before the weather gets nice?
With a fresh coat of paint, you could treat yourself and your home at the same time.
Benefits of an exterior paint job:
- Adds value to your home
- Paint is more economical than the installation of vinyl siding
- The right color could make your home appear smaller (dark shades) or larger (light shades)
- Improve your home’s curb appeal
- Protects siding and trim from the elements
Benefits of an interior paint job:
- Adds value to your home
- More comfortable living arrangement
- The right color can affect your mood and the appearance (larger or smaller) of the room
- A new coat of paint will make walls look clean and fresh
- Protects drywall and plaster from absorbing moisture over time
Start with the small stuff and expand where you can
Here are some ideas to get the gears turning:
- Start with some new color in your favorite space
- A new coat for your entryway, where your home makes its first impression on visitors
- “Fix” a color mistake from the past
- Use complementary colors from halls into adjacent rooms
- Painting just a single wall or accent wall can change the feel of a room dramatically
- Paint window trim or doors to make them pop
