Common Questions
Good Questions.
What exactly is a color consultation?
It's a focused, in-home session where I look at your specific light, finishes, and furniture and recommend colors that will actually work. Most clients have already tried a few chips that looked wrong — we fix that.
How is this different from asking a paint store?
Paint stores are selling paint. I'm solving a color problem. I take into account your existing floors, countertops, furniture, and natural light — things a store employee can't see.
Do I need to repaint everything?
Not at all. Most clients want one or two rooms done well. We scope the project to what you actually need.
Can I use my own painter?
Yes. I'm happy to work with whoever you've hired. I'll give them the exact paint specs and be available for questions on paint day.
How do I know the color will look right?
We test before you commit. I order samples and we look at them in your rooms under your actual light — morning, midday, evening. That process eliminates most surprises.
What if I don't like the final result?
It's rare, but if something isn't right after the paint goes up, we talk about it and figure out a solution. I don't disappear after the consultation.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Typically 2–3 weeks. Spring and fall are busiest. If you're planning a renovation, book early.
What does it cost?
Single-room consultations start at $1,200. Full-house curation with painter coordination starts at $2,400. Exact pricing depends on scope — reach out for a specific quote.
