1. Preparation Isn’t Optional. It’s the Key

Most DIYers forget or skip the prep work:

• They don’t sand properly.

• They apply paint over dirt or old flakes.

• They choose the wrong primer or skip it entirely.

2. Paint Quality Changes Everything

Big box store bargain paints are no match for the high-performing coatings we use. For example:

• In a Florida home, we use low-VOC interior paints that resist mold and are kid/pet safe.

• For commercial exteriors, we use fade-resistant, weatherproof paints designed for UV and moisture.

3. Technique Creates the Finish

DIY painting often results in:

• Streaky walls

• Visible roller marks

• Drips down your trim

• Missed corners behind doors

4. The Hidden Cost of DIY? Repainting Sooner

Let’s be honest:

• Your weekend gets wasted.

• You spend more on extra tools and paint than expected.

• You call us six months later to fix it anyway.

You’ve probably seen it before, a DIY paint job that looks great on day one… and starts peeling by month six.

That’s the reality for many homeowners and small business owners who try to save money by doing it themselves. While DIY might seem cheaper at first, the hidden costs are time, frustration, and a finish that simply doesn’t last.

Here’s why Edge Painting’s professional services for residential and commercial properties always outlast the rest:
