Prep Thoroughly Yourself

Use Paint-and-Primer in One
- Cuts down on product and labor time (especially on clean surfaces).
Smart painting tips
3. Shop Smart for Paint
- Big box stores often have mistint gallons for cheap — worth checking if you're not picky on color.
- Brands like Behr and Valspar run frequent promos.
4. Tackle Trim and Doors Yourself
- These details are time-consuming for pros and often priced at a premium.
- Your precision and DIY interest make it an ideal spot to save.
5. Rent Equipment Instead of Buying
- Paint sprayers, ladders, and flooring tools — renting saves upfront and storage space.
