Closets, pantries, and nooks are relatively easy to paint and do not add a ton of additional costs to a job. Don’t forget, larger walk-in closets can cost more to paint based on their size and amount of wall space not covered by shelving. Painting closets can cost as little as $175 – $315 for smaller or medium-sized spaces. The pricing for walk-in closets can be compared to bathrooms with similar sq ft dimensions Costs can also vary if you add trim, ceilings, or additional preparation or repairs
Even if you go it alone, specialize to keep your initial investment low. If you do only interior painting, for example, you might get by with one ladder, a few brushes, rollers, basic hand tools and such, for an investment of less than $300. Again, you can add to your tools as you need to (every job is a bit different), and parlay profits into the equipment necessary for exterior painting or working on large commercial properties.

In modern design, black exteriors are gaining in popularity. Although right now, they’re primarily limited to the most designer homes and styles, there are more everyday homes that are taking on black exteriors or black trim accents as a way to make a bold statement. This color offers a modern, sleek finish and can be so versatile that it doesn’t have to be ‘dark’ unless that’s the look that you’re going for.
The Phinney Ridge Painting website has a catchy homepage with sliding pictures of different home painting themes. The designers have played around with the text fonts throughout the page to create special emphasis on certain words. Some texts are larger, of a different font color, italicized, capitalized or bolded, but this inconsistency doesn’t hurt the design theme.
