It is always a pleasant feeling to move into a brand-new workspace, won't you agree? Everything looks clean, and it just feels like a more comfortable place to work in. Having said that, over time — almost without being noticed — the space becomes "used"; scratches and dirt might appear on walls, and it can have a negative impact on the workplace.

A simple, fresh coat of paint can help change that — and in a very cost-effective fashion as well.

A number of studies have revealed just how big of an impact interior colors have on an employee's ability to work. When the colors are right, employee concentration and productivity can bump up. In addition to that, fewer accidents happen in brighter workspaces, and the need for extra lighting is considerably reduced as well.

That's not all.

The polished, professional look of a freshly painted office space can have a positive effect on your customers, suppliers, and investors. And if you are trying to sell or let out the space, a fresh coat of paint can also help you get more dollars as it increases property value.

Now that you know of the perks of a fresh coat of paint, what is the next step? Can you juggle between the painting job and your business operations efficiently? Probably not. Even if you have the time, you may not have the skills or resources needed to pull off a perfect paint job. This is where hiring professional local painting contractors can help. They can tell you which colors would work best and get the job done flawlessly, with the least interruption to your business.

Finding the right commercial painting contractor will be easier if you look for the following:

  • An established company - Many painting services come and go and do not care as much about the job they do. Ask for customer testimonials and to see examples of the company's work. Established companies want to make sure your needs are met and that you are satisfied with the work - that is how they get more business.
  • Enough staff to do the job correctly and in a timely way - You do not want 10 people painting a 250 square foot office; or two people painting your warehouse. You need to know the job will be done quickly, efficiently, and by a specific time.
  • Free quotations - If the commercial exterior painting contractor you are considering knows what they are doing, they will be able to accurately estimate costs without too much effort - and stick to the prices they quote.
  • Quality materials - Many suppliers will use lower grade paints to save money. Make sure the paints used are high quality, durable, and washable — you do not want to do this again too soon.

Painting your workspace can benefit productivity, reduce costs, improve customer satisfaction, and increase the value of the property. The right company will do the work for a reasonable price and keep any business interruptions to a minimum. It is clear that the benefits of repainting your workplace far outweigh the costs.
