Color Selection: |
|
| The first step is to decide what colors you would like to paint your house. Paint swatches and samples are available for viewing and pickup at your local Sherwin Williams and Kwal paint stores. Sherwin Williams also has a color visualizer to view colors in your home on a PC or Mac at (https://www.sherwin-williams.com/visualizer/) Please keep in mind that colors may vary in shade depending on the quality of your monitor/screen and may look different than the actual paint on your home. If you need further assistance, Baseline Painting offers a free color consultation through Sherwin Williams at selected store locations near you. If you are uncertain about how a color may look up on your house, Baseline Painting provides up to three free samples per household for you to pick-up at an agreed Sherwin Williams or Kwal store. Every sample after that is $10 dollars each. Once you have selected your colors, please email or fax your color selection form to Baseline Painting. Baseline can match colors from a different paint manufacturer into a Sherwin Williams or a Kwal paints, our office staff will help you through this process.
Scheduling: |
|
| Baseline will schedule your painting start date after receiving your colors and price confirmation on our color selection form. Our office staff will always make our best efforts to keep your original project schedule, but at times we may move your start date due to weather or other unforseen circumstances. | |
Before We Start |
|
| The homeowner must perform miscellaneous duties outside home to prepare for the crew arrival. Trees, bushes, shrubs, and any other vegetation that are on or close to the house should be cut and trimmed back so the painters can perform their work. Please remove all wall hangings, decorations, and other outdoor accessories from the exterior of your home. The above miscellaneous duties must be completed before Baseline begins your painting or stain project. We will aid in moving and covering of heavy items such as grills and or outdoor patio furniture. If you have pets, we ask that you keep them inside or in an area outside of the home away from the areas being painted or stained. | |
