Indoor Painting Updates for Winter

Posted on December 16, 2022 by Scott Bardash

There’s a chill in the air, and that means it’s time to think about returning to the great indoors for the winter and holiday season. As much as our homes are a part of our daily lives, they take center stage in the upcoming holiday season:

Our homes become the backdrop of our treasured holiday memories, the place we welcome our friends and family to celebrate these special times together.

These moments are sneaking up quickly, so we want to share some common indoor painting updates for winter that we can help take off your to-do list!

 

Projects that are popular in the fall and winter:

  • Painting walls and ceilings
  • Drywall repair
  • Removing wallpaper
  • Painting trim
  • Painting cabinets
  • Painting banisters

 

Painting walls

This two-story living room makes a dramatic statement in Sherwin Williams SW6244 Naval

Painting in rooms with high ceilings, like foyers and two-story living rooms. Make sure the entrance of your home welcomes your guests with a fresh feeling that fits you and your home. We can help you choose a color for your foyer that is classic, natural, bright, dark, dramatic… anything you want!

Gathering and entertaining spaces, especially around kitchens, dining rooms, and family rooms. It’s surprising how dirty the walls of a kitchen can get – and as the heart of the home it always seems to be the gathering place for holiday parties! Think of painting the walls with a color that accents your current cabinetry and countertops, or make a full change and paint the kitchen cabinets, too!

Guest bedrooms for welcoming overnight visitors. We know you probably don’t think of this room often, but here’s your reminder to give it a quick update with a new coat of paint! It’s a great place to try a new color you have been thinking of for your home. Your guests will appreciate the look, and you can see what a color looks like in your home!

 

Removing wallpaper

This kitchen got rid of the dated wallpaper but still feels fun in Sherwin Williams SW9135 Whirlpool!

We know how it goes – you’ve lived with that old wallpaper for so long and you dread removing it so you don’t do anything about it. Good call – done improperly, wallpaper removal can cause drywall damage that’s difficult to repair. Our professional painters have the tools (and patience!) to properly remove wallpaper, and then sand and skim coat any needed areas. After a fresh coat of paint to update the room, you’ll feel like you have a brand new home!

 

Drywall repair

Patch drywall holes and blemishes. Take care of those imperfections on your walls that we overlook in daily life. Our painting crews can fix holes in drywall from accidents and mistakes so that it looks like it never happened!

Ceiling repairs and matching ceiling texture. Ceilings can get missed as we consider updating the home, but old water leaks and stains can make an otherwise beautiful room feel old and in need of attention. We can paint over stains using special primers and paint products, and we can match existing ceiling textures if needed so that repairs blend seamlessly.

 

 

Trim Painting

Painting the wood trim in a bright white made a huge difference  – it’s immediately brighter and looks like new!

Painting over stained wood trim. Shorter winter days can really remind us that our home feels darker than we want it to, and a great option to help this is to paint over stained wood trim in your home. Going from stained wood trim to painted wood trim is part science and part art – and the right tools and experience make all the difference! Our professional painters know the right products to use and application techniques needed to give you a smooth and long-lasting finish. You’ll be surprised to see the difference this change makes in your home! Those previously dark corners suddenly feel bright and cheerful, and you find yourself enjoying your home in a whole new light.

 

 

Cabinet Painting

We spend so much time in our kitchens in the holiday season – make sure you love where you’re cooking! This kitchen worked well but the homeowner wanted an update – it looks great!

Painting kitchen cabinets.

There can’t be a faster way to make a huge update to your home than this! Kitchen cabinets get so much use, and at this time of year they become the background of our holiday parties and family memories. A kitchen renovation can be incredibly disruptive and expensive, but we can help you achieve a similar result in just a few days… and typically for much less money! The process of painting kitchen cabinets is more intense than other painting projects, and our painters have years of experience painting cabinetry to achieve as close as possible to a factory perfect finish.

Our cabinet painting process was developed to be efficient and leave you with a kitchen you can be proud of!

Painting kitchen islands, sometimes in an accent color.

If you’re not ready to paint the entire kitchen, think of just updating your kitchen island cabinetry! Many of our customers choose to use an accent color on the kitchen islands that is different from the rest of the kitchen cabinets.

Painting bathroom cabinets.

Don’t forget about the hardworking cabinets in the bathrooms that we so easily overlook. If you’re painting other cabinets in the home, it’s a great time to update the bathroom cabinets at the same time!

The wood built-ins made this room look dated, but painting them white makes it look completely different. Think of all the potential for seasonal decorating on these shelves!

Built-in bookshelves.
Painting mudroom cabinets or laundry room cabinets.

Our families sure can abuse the cabinets in a mudroom or laundry room! Over the years, they take a beating and they can start to show it. Think of going with a darker color in these spaces to help hide the dirt, mud, and fingerprints of daily life.

 

 

 

 

Painting banisters and stair railings

On banisters, some people like the look of wood handrails with white spindles, like in the before picture, and some homeowners like everything painted – either way, we can make it happen!

Often a focal point of an entryway, stairs can make a stunning entrance to your home… or they can make even a freshly painted room look dated. Painting stair rails and banisters is a popular way to update these features – and it’s often much more affordable than installing new! Some homeowners choose to paint everything, sometimes just the handrails or just the spindles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We know the season can be overwhelming, so rest assured knowing you’re in good hands when you call Guy Painting for painting updates for winter.

Our professional painters are clean and respectful, and everyone on our team is here to make your house feel like your dream home! If there’s anything on your to-do list that we can help you with, reach out today and we will be happy to stop by for a FREE QUOTE and to go over our process. At the end, you’ll understand why our customers leave us the best painter reviews in the Indianapolis area!

 

If you are thinking of some interior painting updates for winter…

Now you know a Guy!

Painting Brick to Update Exterior

Posted on August 4, 2022 by Scott Bardash


 

When these Indianapolis homeowners started thinking about painting their house, they knew they wanted to make a big update. It’s a beautiful home but the brick was starting to look a little outdated, so they decided to go all in: they painted the brick!

A lot of people are considering painting their brick to update their homes. It’s a quick way to completely change the look of a house, and you can change your home into any color you would like. The process for painting brick is more involved than with just painting wood or siding, so it’s important to bring in a professional who knows how to paint brick correctly.

The Process

When making this kind of investment in your home, it’s important to be sure you have the color that you want! Our team has experience with colors and we sent our PPG Paint specialist to the house to make sure we had an exact match. He was also able to create a custom match for the black contrasting color used on the garage doors and gutters. For the brick, siding, and trim, the homeowners chose PPG 1008-1 Focus. This is a warm neutral white color that feels classic, and the perfect choice for their home!

As with many of our painting projects, the first step is to take care of any wood replacement needed. A painted finish can only be as good as the material that it’s on! Luckily our carpenters can take care of most wood issues that we come across. In this case, our carpenters replaced some wood trim, gutter boards, and siding.

 

 

As a service, we are also able to offer new gutters and downspouts. The perfect time to replace those is during a painting project, and we can make it easier by handling all of that for you. Since we were doing such a big overhaul on this home’s exterior, the homeowner’s thought it would be ideal to take care of both projects at once. They chose gutters with gutter covers to reduce future maintenance. In addition, they chose to have their gutters and downspouts painted a contrasting dark color in order to stand out.

 

 

Once painting started, our Quality Managers were on site to check the progress and quality of this project every day. We take care of the details so the homeowner can just relax and know that the job is being completed with care. Our results and reviews speak for themselves!

The Finished Product

The end result of this project is stunning. The house feels contemporary while still timeless, welcoming and warm. We want to spend a quiet afternoon on the porch of this house – but we are on to the next home!

 

 

If you’re thinking about your next painting project, give us a call and let us help you create an incredible home that you’re sure to love.

Now you know a Guy!

A New Look for a Kitchen

Posted on June 28, 2022 by Scott Bardash

 

Kitchen Cabinet Updates with Paint!

Like so many Indianapolis area homeowners, this Westfield family was looking for an update to their dated wood kitchen cabinets. They were not new to Guy Painting, they had recently moved into a new house and had already had us out to paint most of the interior of their home and were getting ready for us to come back to paint a few more rooms! Since they loved working with Guy Painting, they decided to get a free quote to paint their kitchen cabinets, too. We’ve been painting a lot of kitchen cabinets recently!

They had a great kitchen layout and the cabinets were in good condition, so it did not make sense to replace the cabinets. Luckily, painting kitchen cabinets is a cost-effective way to get that updated look for less money than replacing the cabinets! They met with Sean, to go over options and pricing to paint kitchen cabinets. Sean got some measurements and gave them a quote on the spot so they could make a decision on what they wanted to do for the home. Since they were familiar with us, they signed up on the spot to get their kitchen cabinets painted!

 

The process for painting kitchen cabinets takes a few days, and as with all painting projects, prep work is so important! Our professional painters take care the protect everything in the kitchen. We put down coverings on the floor and we tape off everything that won’t be painted with plastic. We remove doors and drawers and set up a separate area to spray those items. For cabinetry, we spray everything including the cabinets themselves in order to leave a smooth finish free of brush or roll marks.

In this kitchen, the customer wanted a different color on the island. For this, we end up covering the rest of the cabinets and spraying the island first, and then covering the island and spraying the rest of the kitchen.

Origami White

Taupe Tone

We love the way the white cabinets pop against the slate blue walls. It’s a beautiful look and the homeowners love it! When asked how the process went, they said:

It went very well & only 3 days from start to finish.

All painters were efficient, friendly, and did a great job!

A Modern Update

Posted on May 31, 2022 by Scott Bardash

A modern update for this Geist home!

The homeowners of this Indianapolis home called us to get a quote for painting the exterior of their house for a modern update. They had recently purchased the home and had a lot of work to do to make it their own. We were happy to come by and give them a free quote for exterior painting and wood repair!

This house had a lot of wood damage, so the first thing we do is go over everything we are suggesting in detail. We walked around with the homeowner and pointed out areas of wood rot, and how we fix wood rot and then paint it so that it looks original to the house. Like most houses of this age, we needed to replace wood rot on the windows, soffits, trim pieces, doors, fascia, and wood siding.

Wood Repair

The first step of painting and repair is having our carpentry team come to take care of the wood replacement. We were able to start that in early spring, that way painting could start as soon as possible. Our carpenters found a few additional pieces of wood to repair, and the homeowners were happy that our team could take care of it immediately. We are happy to have some of the best carpenters in the Indianapolis area for our carpentry projects. Our homeowners love when their homes look as good (or better!) than when they were first built!

Painting

Next we had one of our professional painting teams come to prepare the house for painting. Everything that we are not painting gets covered or protected to keep your home spotless. We started painting everything at this house in Sherwin Williams SW 7008 Alabaster, a popular warm white.

After that, the homeowner decided to take a bold step and paint the windows black, a popular modern painting update. They chose Sherwin Williams SW 7069 Iron Ore for this. Our team protected all of the newly painted white trim and did a phenomenal job creating this modern look.

Black windows are increasingly popular, and luckily that would work for this homeowner. We don’t always recommend black windows for every house and every window, but talk to us and we can go over options for your house!

The customer loves this house as much as we do, and we’re happy they loved our crew:

“Wonderful! Great customer service, good cleanup.”

Updating with Shiplap? Need it painted?

Posted on April 30, 2022 by Scott Bardash

Isn’t it great when you know a Guy?? This Indianapolis homeowner has been thrilled with our professional painting team in the past, we have done exterior painting and wood replacement for them and for their neighborhood for many years. When it came time to paint some interior woodwork and walls, they knew just the painters to call!

Painting over wood paneling and shiplap takes some additional prep and work, and is a more specialized type of painting than just painting a wall. Our team of professional painters has the experience to do this and get the results that you are looking for. Our quality team will fully manage the process so all you have to do is enjoy your freshly painted home!

Painting the Kitchen Island

In the kitchen, they wanted their kitchen island painted. They had installed some wood panels of shiplap over the island, and decided they wanted it painted black to match the cabinets.

As always, our team of painters and supervisors set to work to match the color. Sometimes we do not know the name of the color that we are matching, but we have the knowledge and tools to properly match an existing color. These black cabinets required a custom matched color, but that is never a problem for our team!

Painting Newly Updated Shiplap Sunroom

The sunroom had new wood paneling to be painted. With help from one of our color consultants, the homeowner chose a popular warmer gray, SW 7029 Agreeable Gray. The new modern colors make the room extra bright!

Painting Wood Paneling  – Ship lap look in the Hallway

 

We love the way these doors were built in to the wood paneling in the hallway. We love it even more now that it has been painted a beautiful bright white!

If you’re looking for a guy for your next painting project, give us a call and talk to our expert painters and see how we can help you. Now you know a Guy, too!

Painting with Guy Painting makes the difference!

This is the Diehr family story and experience – but it can be yours to…   Call Us  317-708-1200

Providing a Painting Quote

We provided a quote to the Diehr family in May of 2019, they signed up with us in January of 2020. We began working on the right color for their house.

“Honestly, not a thing I would change about the process. The quote was given last year, and we decided to act on it this year.” –Kim 

Paint Color Choices

With the arrival of early spring weather in March, we put up paint color samples. After further discussion they chose to have the gutters painted as well. During our discussions we landed on a color change with a two-tone look using both blue and tan.

Trim and doors- SW 9171 Felted wool

Siding- SW 0048 Bunglehouse Blue

Prep Work

We sent out the carpenters first to replace a rotten board on the porch, then we power washed the house.  After we gave it time to dry, we began to professionally prep and then allied the top of the line paint with there new colors.  – WOW what a difference!

Wrap Up

After we finished the house-painting project, we did a thorough walk through with the customer and they filled out the grade card.

How Were The Carpenters And Quality?

A week later we did a follow-up QC inspection, now that it was all dry we wanted to make sure there were not additional touch ups.  We found a few and took care of them.

“When they checked completed work, he saw things I didn’t see. I’m not a professional, but he knew what to look for and pointed out things I didn’t see.”  –Kim 

How Were The Painters And Quality?

The customer was very please with the process, said the guys were detailed and did a great job.

“Both paint and carpenter teams were impressive. Prep work was very impressive, very clean, didn’t leave a mess. Always cleaned up. Attention to detail was quite awesome. The quality was impressive.” –Kim 


“Neighbors have already got a quote because they were impressed with work and attention to detail, they saw at our house, and I have already recommended you to some friends looking to get their house painted. Your teams were excellent, and I will highly recommend to anyone.”





Kim reiterated…
