When it comes to home improvement projects, nothing compares to the value, practicality, and affordability of a strategic painting job. Choosing the right paint colors and techniques enhances your home’s aesthetic appeal and can increase its market value. Not to mention, this doesn’t have to be a costly or time-consuming project to bring dramatic change.
At Precision Painting Plus, our experts are well-versed in how a swift, well-executed painting job can completely revolutionize the look and feel of your home. Here are five simple yet impactful painting projects that can add considerable value to your home.
1. Revamp Your Front Door
Your front door is more than just an entryway; it’s a focal point that sets the tone for the rest of your home. As one of the first impressions visitors have of your property, a fresh, bold color on your front door can add a striking aesthetic lift. Painting your front door can significantly enhance your home’s curb appeal, a key factor in its overall value – especially if you’re considering selling soon.
Inspired by European door traditions, Benjamin Moore’s Aura Grand Entrance line offers a stunning selection of vibrant colors, including our favorites, “Blue Wave” and “Tulip Red,” that can add a personality to your entrance. Remember, the color you choose should not only reflect your personal taste but also harmonize with the overall style and color scheme of your home’s exterior.
2. Refresh Your Exterior Walls
Nothing revives your home’s exterior and boosts curb appeal quite like a fresh coat of paint. This is one of the most effective ways to add significant value to your property.
For exceptional results, we recommend Benjamin Moore’s Regal Select Exterior Paint. Known for its excellent adhesion and weather-resistant properties, it ensures that your fresh coat of paint withstands the elements and remains vibrant for years to come.
When choosing your color, factor in the architectural style of your home, the surrounding landscape, and even the neighborhood palette. A well-chosen color can make your home stand out for all the right reasons.

3. Update Your Kitchen Cabinets
If a full kitchen remodel is out of your budget, don’t despair. One of the most cost-effective ways to give your kitchen a new, modern look is to repaint the cabinets. This simple change can drastically alter the feel of your space, making it brighter, cleaner, and more contemporary.
Benjamin Moore’s ADVANCE Interior Paint is an excellent choice for this project. It’s designed specifically for cabinets, offering an exceptional, durable finish and easy to clean. The wide range of colors allows you to create a kitchen that reflects your style. A soft hue like “Cloud White” can create a fresh and airy feel, while a bold choice like “Deep Royal” can make a dramatic impact.
4. Create a Feature Wall
Creating a feature or accent wall is another quick way to add depth, interest, and a touch of sophistication to your living room, dining room, or bedroom. Painting one wall in a different yet complementary color creates an immediate focal point that draws the eye.
Consider one of the bold and beautiful hues from Benjamin Moore’s AURA Interior Paint range for your feature wall. A color like “Hale Navy” can add a deep, dramatic flair, while a bright color like “Caliente” can warm up a room and inject a dose of energy. But remember, the color you choose should work in harmony with the existing color palette in your room and contribute to the overall ambiance you’re aiming for.
5. Brighten Up Your Bathroom
Bathrooms often take a back seat in the home makeover process, but a thoughtful paint job can transform these often-overlooked spaces. A fresh, light color can make a small bathroom appear larger, cleaner, and more inviting. This small change can significantly affect your home’s overall appeal and value.
For bathrooms, we recommend Benjamin Moore’s AURA Bath & Spa paint. This line offers moisture and mildew-resistant paints designed to withstand humid environments while maintaining their beauty. Opt for a classic, neutral tone like “Paper White” to make your bathroom feel open, clean, and spacious. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, a gentle pastel-like “Palladian Blue” can lend a soothing spa-like quality to the room.
