What to know

A short checklist.

A walkthrough can separate simple painting from repair work that should be listed first.

01

Marks will not clean off

Scuffs and stains stay visible after normal cleaning.

02

Colors look dull

Sun and daily use can fade busy rooms.

03

Caulk has opened

Small gaps show where trim and walls need attention.

04

Patches stand out

Old repairs or touch-ups no longer blend with the wall.

05

The room feels dated

A new color can change the space without a remodel.
