Painting before moving in a new home

Painting before moving can be an excellent idea for several reasons. Firstly, it allows you to freshen up the walls and give a new look to your new house or apartment before even moving in your furniture. It can also be more convenient as you won't have to move or protect your belongings during the painting process. Additionally, it saves you from having to live in a space cluttered with furniture while trying to paint.

Be practical before moving

From a practical standpoint, here are some tips for painting before moving:

Planning: Make sure to plan enough time to finish the painting before your moving date. Evaluate the size of the rooms to be painted and allocate time accordingly.

Preparation: Before starting to paint, ensure to properly prepare the surfaces by cleaning the walls, filling in holes, and sanding them if necessary. Protect floors and surfaces with tarps or masking tape to avoid paint splatters.

Paint selection: Opt for quality paints that offer good coverage and long durability. Also, choose neutral colors if you plan to sell the property in the future, as it can make the house more appealing to potential buyers.

Tool selection: Ensure you have all necessary tools on hand, including brushes, rollers, paint trays, masking tape, etc.

Painting smartly: Start by painting the ceilings, then the walls, and finally the woodwork. Work from top to bottom to avoid paint drips on freshly painted surfaces.
