Adding Color to Drywall

Home remodeling is an art and and the really good contractors in this industry know a lot of the trade secrets that keep them in business. A homeowner could try to save money by doing all the work himself, read tons of books, put a lot of man hours into it, and he still would not be able to come close to the job I have seen many Portland drywall and remodeling companies can do. Nothing beats experience and doing some a hundred times.

I am talking about adding color to your walls. Go into most people's home and take a look at their walls. What color is it? White.

Why not change it up a little. You have to know what you are doing though because all of the textures, toppings, compounds, and plaster come in white. To change that up takes a little work.

How can you change the color?

Three common items you can use are

paints

cement coloring

food coloring

All you have to do is add a LITTLE bit of the previous items to your plaster when you are mixing your texture. It also helps with the whole drywall process because you can clearly see all the areas you have covered.

There is drywall spray texture that you can use as well and they usually come in different colors. You can just apply the spray and make whatever texture or color you want.
