When it comes to simple, low-cost home improvements that can add value and completely change the look of a room, you just can’t beat painting. Tackle the job yourself, rather than hiring a professional painter, and you can save even more money.

Follow these three guidelines and you can achieve professional-looking results with your own hands:

Pick the right paint

The quality of the paint you choose will directly affect how good the job looks when you’re done. For a good quality finish it is important to select quality paint, which adheres better, gives a uniform finish and will last longer.
