The first day of winter is a few days away but the first snowflakes have already fallen. Once the hubbub of the holidays is over, what will your winter bring? Winter is a great time to tackle interior improvement projects while the weather forces you to stay indoors. Many homeowners wait for spring to start home improvement projects, but we’d argue that winter may be even better for interior painting, cleaning and more. As the trusted name in painting, carpentry and house cleaning services for Minneapolis and the surrounding areas, we’ve put together a list of some great projects to tackle this season.
Cabinets
As we covered in our recent blog post, now is a great time for cabinet refacing! If your kitchen and its cabinets are in relatively good condition and don’t require major layout changes, you can update the look of your kitchen by simply painting the kitchen cabinets. Painting kitchen cabinets in winter is also a great solution if you’re looking to sell, but don’t want to do a full gut and remodel.
Trim
Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest difference like railings or trim. While they occupy little square footage in the home, they make a big difference in the overall appearance of a home. Painting old wood trim, banisters and interior doors this winter can create a cleaner, professional finish throughout the home. We’ve seen such a difference in homes that paint old builder-grade trim a soft cream or white.
Ceilings
If your ceiling has old water stains, dirt, scratches or general wear you’ve been wanting to paint for years, now is the time to do it! Even ceilings can benefit from a fresh coat of paint, especially in winter. It is an unexpected way to freshen up your interior space. And, finished basements especially can benefit from new paint if used as a playroom or entertainment space.
Walls
Give your home a winter refresh! Interior paint provides several benefits in addition to finally getting your favorite color on the walls. It can seal in old dirt and odors, lessen allergens and even make your space appear larger. Living rooms and kitchens tend to get some of the hardest wear and tear throughout the year; so let’s start there!
