Joe Jacobs and the top painting crew at Chagrin Home Improvements can change your view

By Mary Malik

Here we go again, right? Wondering what the new year will bring and whether you’ll be stuck indoors again, staring at the same old walls, with that same old color you never liked? Or how about that hole in the ceiling you never got around to fixing? It could be a very long, ugly winter.

Joe Jacobs, owner of Chagrin Home Improvements, has some ideas on how to freshen up those walls and make your home the place you want to be this winter—and beyond.

“Interior painting is one of the best and most cost-efficient ways to update your home while adding value,” says Joe. “Smaller home projects can actually yield a better return on investment and painting is at the top of that list. Whether you’ve found your forever home but need to update, are planning to sell in 2022, or you just want to change your home’s style and boost your mood, painting is the way to go.”

Joe’s crew consists of professional painters who learned the craft from true masters of the trade. And if that sounds a bit dramatic—after all, it’s just painting—Joe wants you to know how much it really matters.

“This isn’t just something we do in the winter months while we wait to get back outdoors and back to deck maintenance and restoration,” says Joe. “Our crew is made up of experts in the painting trade, many with more than 10 years of experience. When you’re hiring painters for your home, that’s an important distinction to make.”

If you’ve tried to paint in your own home, you know the value of using a professional. If you haven’t, it’s best to call the experts. Painting is one of those jobs that looks easy, maybe even fun, until you’re deep into it, things are going horribly wrong, and you find you need to ultimately call an expert to fix the mess you’ve made.

“People often think painting is a DIY project that doesn’t necessarily require training or experience,” Joe says. “How hard can it be? Pick up a brush and get started, right? People quickly realize once they get into it that there’s a lot more involved than they expected. Undoubtedly, issues will come up and they don’t know how to make them right. Why not leave it to our experts for a stress-free experience?”

Joe says that many DIYers skimp on the time-consuming wall preparation, which can make all the difference in the final product and affect the look of the color applied. That beautiful new shade you picked might look completely different on an improperly prepared wall.

“At Chagrin Home Improvements, we’ve invested in a state-of-the-art wall sanding system that allows us to achieve a perfectly smooth, even finish, while eliminating dust with a high-powered HEPA dust collection system,” says Joe. “It’s a game changer when preparing your walls for paint or repairing damaged walls. It also removes grease and other stains that can affect how paint adheres to the wall. These are details other painters can miss.”

Things like the right tools for the job, the highest quality paints and products, the correct type of paint for the room, even the right order in which to do things all make a big difference and require training. Do it right the first time with the experts at Chagrin Home Improvements.
