An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure!

One of the things Hisway Painting has worked hard as a house painter in Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, and Spring Hills over the last 30 years is to build a strong level of expertise about home maintenance, so that when we come to give you an estimate, we can also help you prevent costly repairs in the future by inspecting the areas that need some attention.

Benjamin Franklin once famously advised fire-threatened Philadelphians in 1736 that “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” When dealing with a problem, spending a small amount of time and effort early on to understand the issue is a good investment. It can save you trouble, expense and costly repairs in the end.

Having your interior painted protects your home now and prevents future damage from occurring inside and outside of your walls. Many interior walls are made of materials that naturally absorb moisture. Over time, too much absorption can lead to compromised walls which can be dangerous to your home’s structural integrity. Moisture inside walls can cause mold growth which can lead to health concerns. Paint is designed to seal out moisture from getting into the porous walls of your home.

With a new coat of paint, your walls will have a new layer of protection from moisture. Moisture can lead to mold and mildew growth and even more extensive damage to your walls. A new coat of paint on your walls can help seal out moisture, reducing the added weight that can put stress on your home’s structural integrity. By choosing quality paint, it can help repel all the dirt, dust, and allergens, making it easier to keep your home clean.

We work with skilled carpenters to replace and repair drywall and to identify and repair holes, water damage and moisture, and dry rot. But, having the interior of your home inspected regularly and repainted every 6 - 8 years will prevent these issues from arising, so that you can use your home maintenance budget to improve the look of your home instead of fixing expensive problems.

We would love to give you a free estimate to check out your home and any potential issues that will save you headaches down the road, or go ahead and schedule a time to get your home's interior repainted and give you peace of mind and beautiful new walls!
