Series Summary

Have you ever sat down on a bar stool in your kitchen, walls covered with pastel wallpaper peeling on the edges from water stain and mildew, while the lime green exterior wall glares through the window and the reflection of the burnt orange accent wall behind you (that seemed like such a good idea 20 years ago) reflects in your 13-inch TV screen and thought...maybe its time to paint the house? Let's face it, houses age and go out of style quickly, which makes painting a house regularly a must for both its functionality and aesthetic. But now, painting your house has become easier than ever. You don't have to hire a professional painter and lose thousands of dollars!

If you decide that you want to paint your own kitchen, there are a number of necessary steps to follow in order for the job to look professional and nice. In this free video series, a professional painting contractor will teach you how to paint a living room from the preparation stages to clean up. You'll learn what supplies and tools are needed, how to repair and sand the surface of walls and trim, and eventually how to paint the room itself. The painting process may seem simple enough, but professional techniques will keep you from having to repaint the kitchen, or from creating collateral damage. So, get out your rollers and brushes and get ready to have a great looking kitchen!
