Despite a global pandemic, the housing market boomed in 2020 and shows no signs of slowing in early 2021. People are selling their homes with gusto—the freedom to work from home has afforded many people location independence, while others have needed more square footage to accommodate life in quarantine.
With so many houses going up for sale, it is more important than ever to make sure your house looks its best in order to compete in today’s market. Before you and your real estate agent photograph and list your home, make sure you prepare your home to sell by doing the repairs, updates, and refreshments that will make it appealing to potential buyers.
No matter the age of your home, consider completing any major repairs that may be revealed during a home inspection. To prepare your home for sale, check out the roof, pipes, foundation, electrical, and other systems.
If you’re uncertain about what to look for, consider having a professional pre-sale home inspection to identify potential problems that could lower the value of your home or derail its sale. Completing pre-sale repairs allows you to list your home for top value with confidence. Be aware, however, that if any unwanted house conditions are found during this inspection, you’ll be responsible to share them on the Property Disclosure.
After making essential repairs, the next priority to prepare your home to sell is updating it to make it modern and inviting. The two areas potential buyers consider most when looking at a home are the kitchen and bathrooms, so focus on updates in those areas first.
For a kitchen update, small changes can create an entirely new look. Replacing cabinet knobs and pulls, refinishing wooden cabinets, or re-grouting tiles can quickly and relatively inexpensively upgrade a dated kitchen. You can also replace a worn kitchen faucet or install new light fixtures to help brighten and modernize the space.
In the bathroom, the same concept applies––you can make relatively inexpensive changes to achieve a new look. For an outdated bathroom, you may want to replace the vanity and toilet, or simply the toilet seat. You should also check the bathtub or shower to see whether refinishing, de-liming, or re-grouting would help them shine.
Next, refresh your home with deep cleaning and painting. While you may not have the budget to complete expensive repairs or remodels, most sellers can add value and appeal to their home with this frugal step.
Plan to deep clean your entire house. Make sure to clean easy to ignore places like baseboards, light fixtures, and closets. Tackle the buildup on often-touched electrical faceplates and the hard water stains on shower doors. If possible, plan to get carpets and tiles professionally cleaned to make sure your house is looking its best. If your house has been painted in the last year, clean the walls to remove any scuffs or stains. If it's been longer than a year, repainting can make a big difference.
Painting is one of the least expensive ways to make your house look clean, refreshed, and inviting to buyers. If you decide to paint, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Once you have followed these steps to prepare your home to sell, you’ll be ready for staging and photography. Working with a professional photographer will showcase the features and updates you have made to your home. Refreshed spaces and high-quality photos are especially important in 2021 as many buyers have come to rely heavily on online house tours to help them purchase a home.

Earlier this year, the Bruno Painting, Carpentry, and Remodeling teams completely remodeled a Portsmouth kitchen. The homeowners wanted to update and modernize their kitchen. In our initial consultation and estimate with our clients, we decided that a new layout with added features would be the best use of their space.
To understand the homeowners’ needs, we asked them some important questions about their current kitchen, how it fit their family’s needs, and in what ways was it no longer a fit for their family’s needs. You can ask yourself these questions if you’re considering a kitchen remodel to help guide your renovation project.
If you have an awkward layout or the configuration of your kitchen makes cooking more difficult than it should be, you may want to remodel. For those looking for added storage, updating your kitchen is an excellent method of improving the functionality and convenience of your kitchen. You may even be surprised at the increase in efficiency and how much extra time you’ll want to spend there, once your kitchen flows the way you want.
For those with a growing family, you need a space that can adapt and change with your family. From family gatherings to distance learning, having the proper space is imperative.
If you have grown accustomed to older appliances that don’t work the way they should or if you have linoleum flooring from when your home was first built, it may be time for an update. In fact, these old components may be more than just an eyesore. Reports have shown that outdated appliances are a common cause of house fires, and a majority of house fires start in the kitchen. Keeping your family safe by updating may be one of the best decisions you make all year.
Some decide to change their kitchen’s appearance by sanding and repainting their cabinets and walls as a quick facelift for their kitchen space. This is a great option for those with a tighter budget and when the overall flow of a kitchen space still works. Additionally, if you’re thinking of selling your home soon (within the next year or so), a smaller update may be the way to go. According to Zillow, nationally the average ROI for a minor kitchen remodel is 81.1%!
If your budget has fewer or no limits, there are many ways to lean into a full-scale kitchen remodel, including adding new lighting, fixtures, countertops, a wine fridge, high-end appliances, an exquisite backsplash, and the list goes on. The sky is the limit.
Once we completed our initial consultation, the homeowners’ and our team determined that a major kitchen remodel was right for them. Our team got to work and over the course of 30 days, we completely changed the layout of the kitchen so that it felt more open, bright, and welcoming.
For this particular home, the first step was to completely gut the kitchen. The cabinets and countertops were old and outdated so they and everything else was removed. In their place, our carpentry team built a floor to ceiling storage area next to the fridge, as well as a partial wall, to make the rooms feel separate yet open.
We took out the dividing wall to open the kitchen to the living room area, which makes hosting guests even more enjoyable. With the dividing wall removed, the tile in the kitchen didn’t fit the aesthetic of the entire space. Hardwood flooring that matched the living room was installed to give it a more modern look and to tie the two rooms together.
With the new layout, we were able to install a new stove and sink in places that made the flow of the space ideal for these homeowners. These homeowners opted to use their existing refrigerator to reduce costs but chose to add a new dishwasher. Moving the sink and adding the dishwasher meant that the plumbing needed to be moved and updated as well. This welcomed update was carried out by our carpentry division who has skilled plumbers ready to make these types of adjustments.
The hood for the stove was an added feature that brings a modern feel to this space. In order to install the range hood, our carpentry team replaced the window that was there originally with a larger one over the sink. Some electrical rewiring was necessary to make the new arrangement work properly.
The island and hutch were chosen by the homeowners as a beautiful way to maximize storage space. The countertops were carefully selected to brighten the room and complete the modern look of this kitchen remodel.
You’ll notice the updates to the light fixtures truly pulls the remodel together. With recessed lighting installed over the sink and a modern chandelier over the island, the room is well lit into the night. Finally, some bright tile used as a backsplash for the stove and sink were installed.
Once all these updates were made, our painting team finished the space update with a fresh coat of paint on the walls and the kitchen remodel was complete!
The final product is a beautiful kitchen with great flow, lots of natural light, and an open-concept space.

The average American is spending more time at home and that means spending more time getting good use from your home’s features. Many have already utilized the downtime caused by the pandemic to renovate their home. By taking this time to make improvements to your home, you’ll get to enjoy the updates for more time and perhaps have an even greater appreciation for your new space because of coronavirus restraints.
For those wondering which improvements are worth taking the time to complete, one of our recommendations is a bathroom remodel. There are many benefits to remodeling your bathroom, but some homeowners have legitimate concerns about the process. To help with these concerns, here are five questions to ask when considering remodeling your bathroom.
Maintaining a budget is important with any remodeling project. For homeowners looking to make improvements that will increase your home’s value, creating a budget is key to this process. The average at-home bathroom remodel costs around $10,000 and can go much higher, of course. This includes the cost of hiring a contractor to complete intricate tasks like tiling, lighting, and installing a new shower or tub.
If your budget is tight, there are a few ways to lower this cost. For example, consider focusing on a high-quality paint and updating light fixtures instead of laying tile or putting in granite counter tops. You may also want to consider having a remodel done in stages so you can stretch your budget further and make your new space exactly how you want it. Ultimately, you are in control of what you want your remodel to cost, so plan well and enjoy both the process and the outcome.
The wisest investors know that if you are going to invest in anything, it needs to be worth the time and effort spent to make the improvements. While some are focused on the bottom line, others want to know that their home remodel is going to add value to their lives, and then to their bank account when they sell their home.
If you are in the market to sell, and your realtor suggests a bathroom update before listing, you may want to listen. Some studies show an average of 50% (but sometimes closer to 70%) return from bathroom reno projects. Some parts of the Providence area have even seen returns of more than 100% on their bathroom renovations.
For home renovations, a bathroom renovation is one of the highest returns on investment you can make. The key here is to focus on spending money wisely on the updates that will bring about a high return. For example, adding a second sink in a master bathroom or installing a doorless, larger shower space, will add more value than choosing the most expensive countertops. It is a balance between enjoying what you prefer now versus how much the update will return to you as a percentage of your investment.
There is also the “Joy” factor to consider when remodeling. Those who have made bathroom remodels a priority have reported being happier in their homes and satisfied with how their updates have made them feel. You sometimes cannot put a price tag on happiness.
One of the most common misconceptions about remodeling your bathroom is that everything will need to be replaced during a renovation. With a bathroom renovation, you can do a partial or a full renovation.
Some homeowners are embracing their retro pink or blue wall tiles, while others wouldn’t dream of living with such a dated looking bathroom. First, decide what you like and what you don’t and what things bother you and must be replaced as a priority. Next, build your budget and your list of things to be done as part of your bathroom reno project.
Cracked tiles, leaking toilets, and outdated bathtubs will need attention to get the most out of your investment. Thankfully, these are items that can be replaced relatively easily by a qualified contractor.
A bathroom remodel can be a creative project as well as a source of future profit. For resale value, classic and traditional colors and selections tend to bring a higher return. Ultimately, you are remodeling for yourself and your enjoyment of your space for as long as you choose to live in your home.
It’s worth noting that if your home has only one bath, adding a second bathroom typically adds more value to your home than a remodeled bathroom. For bathrooms, it’s quantity over quality, especially these days when many are at home, perhaps even giving their pets a bath and preferring to do that in a separate tub area.
Buyers are also most interested in cabinetry, flooring, and a new tub or shower. For homes in neighborhoods with lots of families, tubs are extremely popular to remodel, especially if you have the space for a standalone tub in the owner’s suite. Otherwise, many are opting for adding huge, walk-in showers to make their delay routine easier and more enjoyable.
While some home remodeling projects can be done by the homeowner, a bathroom remodel is one that is best left to professionals. A bathroom has many complex components that take a skilled craftsman’s expertise to ensure it is completed correctly. From electrical to plumbing to tilework and everything in between, a licensed professional contractor will ensure that your bathroom renovation is done right the first time.
The bottom line is hiring a contractor who can take care of the carpentry, remodeling, and painting work is essential when deciding to do a bathroom renovation project in your home. Too many have started a bathroom reno project, only to find months and years later, that it is just too difficult and time-consuming, even if you are spending more time at home.
For all bathroom renovations, large and small, we recommend utilizing the services of an experienced contractor who can provide you with design ideas, great work, and an end result that you love.
Upholding and caring for surfaces and relationships has been our mission at Bruno Painting since 2004. We care deeply for our clients and work hard to make their homes a more enjoyable space to live. From tiling to remodeling (and of course painting), we have a skilled team of professional craftsmen who can make your home renovation dreams into reality.
Interior painting is one of the easiest, least expensive ways to improve and revitalize your home. Finding the right interior paint colors combination will, not only tie a room together, but most importantly will make your entire house tell a visual story as you and your house guests move from one room to the next.
Starting this colorful storyline can be a challenge but thankfully the masterful color experts at Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams have recommended color palettes for each room of your home. The question is, “Are certain interior paint colors better for specific rooms?”
Our answer to that question is, yes, “Specific colors in different rooms serve different purposes and can even alter your mood and how you feel while in the room.” There’s that, but of course, there’s a lot more to color theory and how different colors impact the way you feel in each room in your house. Here are a few tips as well as suggestions to consider when selecting the best interior paint colors for each room in your house, as you plan out your interior paint project.
Most people desire their bedroom to be a relaxing, calming space. As a sanctuary of sorts, your bedroom should feel like a safe haven where your cares and stress melt away. To create this harmonious and calming effect, muted blues and muted greens both work well. Rosemary Green - SW 6187 from Sherwin-Williams, for example, elevates any space while bringing a tranquil feeling.

The kitchen is the lifeline in every home. The kitchen is the heartbeat that brings life to every other aspect of your home. Choosing an interior paint color that expresses your family’s heart is an incredible way to bring an emotional connection from you to your home to your family and guests. A pure and crisp look to a kitchen with a subtle addition of color like Hawthorne Yellow from Benjamin Moore can radiate that feeling of life and warmth to the rest of your home.

There is a great amount of flexibility in color choice for your living room because it can and should be an expression of what you want it to be. For the idealist or optimist, bringing light and hope to a room can easily be accomplished through color. This Cloud White and Pale Oak, both from Benjamin Moore, bring a sense of optimism into your home.

If a bolder, more grounded feeling is what you desire for your living room, consider a deep green. Cape Verde - SW 6482 from Sherwin-Williams promotes a peaceful and harmonious balance to any space.

Children also need a space to feel safe and their bedrooms are the place for them to unwind after a busy day. For a calming yet bright approach, try Oxford Gray from Benjamin Moore which actually gives the room a cool, blue feel. If your child’s space is small, consider an accent wall matched with a light neutral or white.

As the first place you and your guests see upon entering your home, it is important to set the tone with just the right foyer color. Many of our clients ask, “What’s the best color for the foyer? A dark, dramatic color or a light and bright color?” Our answer … “The color choice for your foyer depends somewhat on the size of your foyer area, how open it is, how much natural light it gets, and how it’s connected to other walls without a room break.” Your foyer color choice can be difficult if all your space is open. Even if there’s a corner break, you must consider the nearby colors and hues to be sure the flow of the foyer is harmonious with the nearby spaces.
Cyberspace - SW 7076 by Sherwin-Williams can boldly make a statement to your guests unlike any other.

Smaller spaces such as bathrooms can be overlooked when it comes to interior painting updates. Instead of a remodel with a new vanity or tiling which can become expensive, an update to your bathroom’s paint can do the trick in transforming the space. A green hue like Prescott Green from Benjamin Moore is great in this space, where the serene feeling from the color can make you feel like you’re at the spa.

The best part of having a powder room is that you can express yourself in ways that you may not be able to in other rooms in your home. Maximizing these small spaces as a statement piece with a bold color can pack a punch and bring that wow factor.
Alexandrite - SW 0060 from Sherwin Williams is just one of many interior paint colors that shows how to pull off this beautiful bold approach.

You can use this information to better understand all the different paint technologies available and be better able to have a conversation with your painting contractor about the best paints for your home.

For interior paint, some paint characteristics we believe are important are paint thickness, paint coverage or spread, fumes or paint odor, “green” considerations, color variety, sheen selection, specific chemical and preservative ingredients, and ease of application.
When we consider if a paint is “green,” we look at the presence or absence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs release gasses into the air that cause a strong paint odor, and which can be harmful to people and animals, possibly causing respiratory problems as well as harm the air quality.
Along with these factors, we look at customer satisfaction and overall performance for the price. Here are our top recommendations for interior paints:

Fine Paints of Europe created the Eurolux™ Interior Acrylic Paint line to serve as an odorless acrylic paint option, which has been perfected over the last two decades. The coating quality is unmatched by this remarkable paint. Many have compared the durability and scrubbable strength tile, with the same washability! It is both quick drying and Low VOC, making this a wonderful option for lasting beauty in any home. We recommend this in both kitchens and bathrooms due to its impeccable ability to be cleaned.
As an alternative, Eco™ Waterborne Paints by Fine Paints of Europe offer the benefits of both alkyd and acrylic formulated paints. With easy clean-up and application, this self-leveling paint dries to a beautiful finish while also being Low VOC paint, making it an eco-friendly choice. We recommend this paint for dining rooms, family rooms, and even bedrooms.

Aura by Benjamin Moore is another paint we recommend for homeowners specifically looking for a paint that goes on effortlessly. The Gennex color-technology in this paint has maximum performance for long-lasting results. As a paint and primer in one, this paint dries quickly and adapts well to different surfaces. We recommend Aura in bedrooms for its low VOCs and minimal-odor qualities. Additionally, Aura Bath and Spa is designed specifically for high-humidity areas like your bathroom.
Last, but not least, for interior paint Regal Select by Benjamin Moore has performed well for more than 50 years. With its unique formula, a wide variety of beautiful colors, and an easy-to-clean finish for all sheens, this paint is one of our favorites.
As a paint and primer in one, Regal Select performs consistently on many different surfaces. The greatest advantage is that it has zero VOC and low odor making this a versatile choice for any room in your home.
Exterior surfaces require paints that match the needs caused by local conditions. For homes that are near a body of water, for example, mildew-resistant paint will protect best; a stain- and dirt-resistant paint performs well in urban areas. Our exterior paint recommendations are based on specific attributes that may apply to your home’s unique needs.
Benjamin Moore’s Regal Select Exterior Paints offer optimum coverage with protection and durability. This paint holds up its appearance to weathering very nicely. This is due in part to the alkyd technology, which provides ultimate adherence to all surfaces. Its resistance to cracking, dirt, mildew, and color change make this a good overall choice for homes whose exterior requires extra protection from moisture and other elements.

EUROLUXⓇ Housepaint by Fine Paints of Europe provides the advantages of both traditional oil formulas and modern acrylic features with a state-of-the-art formulation. Thanks to the advanced, durable coating this paint application is known for easy use. Weather resistance and environmental conscientiousness are associated with this paint which boasts superior adhesion to surfaces with flexibility making it a great choice for exterior paint as it stands up to numerous cycles of contraction and expansion that we see on the classic coast.

The English writer Sydney Smith once said “A comfortable house is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience.” If this is true, then caring for your home and making it a beautiful and well-protected space is important. And now, more than ever, with all the time we’re spending at home due to COVID, have space you love is important for your mental well-being and peace of mind.
To keep your space feeling fresh and updated, it’s important to care for the walls and other painted surfaces on a regular basis to prevent your interior from feeling old, scuffed, and unclean. A healthy home starts with a fresh coat of paint every few years. Here are the top five reasons to schedule a painting contractor for your home’s interior this year.
A home that is well lived in has quite a bit of character. Sometimes character is beneficial, but not so if it means scuffed, dingy walls, or damaged surfaces. Instead of feeling homey or cozy, a home in this type of ill repair only looks like it’s not well-taken care of. Not only is it important to repair worn or damaged areas of your interior wall space, keeping up with your home’s interior maintenance is essential for a healthy home environment.
Typically speaking, interior walls are composed of materials that absorb moisture naturally. Over time, these surfaces can absorb too much moisture if exposed without a coat of paint to protect them. This means that damage internally to the structure of your home can begin to occur. Moisture within the walls can also lead to mold which is never good for your health. Thankfully, the solution is simple; a fresh coat of paint regularly applied to walls seals out moisture and gives your porous walls the protection they need.
Local professional painters have knowledge about high-quality paints and which types and brands protect your home in relation to how you live. From children to pets to the occasional recliner rubbing against the wall, paint acts as the perfect buffer between your family and your home.
Interior painting can be a surefire way to make your home a happier, more comfortable space. For new homeowners, this may be an essential step in order to make your house your own. Older colors even can feel dated and nonconforming to your style. Whatever the case may be, making the colors of your interior appealing to you should be a priority.
New colors are released yearly to help homeowners keep their homes looking sharp. Many homeowners like to stay on-trend, while others prefer to use classic colors, despite what shows as new or popular at the moment. Popular colors such as Coral Clay or Naval from Sherwin Williams and First Light or Blue Danube by Benjamin Moore can bring new life to any space. Jeweled tones like dark blues and sage greens are popular with many homeowners recently, though, Sherwin-Williams has recently introduced their 2021 palettes that show some unique color combinations and many of Benjamin Moore’s 2020 colors are lighter hues. What’s important is that your new paint color makes your home happier for you.
Older paint can influence you in more ways than one. The health and wellbeing of people indoors have become a vital piece to the improvement of paints used around the house. Advances in technology have made it possible to offer interior paint with low or zero VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), which give off a strong paint “odor” and actually release harmful vapors.
Over time, the release of these vapors or gasses can cause respiratory or other health problems related to allergies, asthma, or other chemical-related issues. Thankfully, these issues along with allergens like dust and pet dander are kept to a minimum with interior painting, improving your home’s air quality.
Each home is unique in its imperfections and that is what often makes them special. Small imperfections add up eventually and these quaint marks can begin to make your home look unkempt.
Oftentimes, walls will have dents, scuffs, and dings from regular usage. Resurfacing and repainting your interior can remove these imperfections to give your home a pristine and refreshed look.
In a seller’s market, homeowners may need to move quickly after they sell their home, also quickly. One of the simplest and least expensive ways to get your home market-ready is by repainting. Both interior and exterior painting are a foolproof way to increase the overall value of your home.
Additionally, a professional paint job communicates to potential buyers that you’ve taken good care of your home. If your home has been on the market for a while, a paint update to neutral colors can move your home off the market faster, sometimes even over your asking price.
Not planning on selling your home soon? Not to worry, a high-quality professional paint job with the right contractor can last up to 7 years. It’s no wonder that so many make the smart investment to paint their homes.
The key to a long-lasting painting of your interior is a finding skilled contractor to prepare your surfaces correctly before completing the project. Finding a local professional that you trust and have confidence that they can meet your home’s needs is paramount.
Our Mission at Bruno Painting has been to uphold and care for surfaces and relationships. Our painting division consists of some of the most skilled professionals in all of Rhode Island. We look forward to the pleasure of helping you make your home, not only look beautiful but also provide a healthy environment for you and your family for years to come.
