Popcorn Ceilings Leaving a Bad Taste in Your Mouth?
Benchmark Painting specializes in making popcorn ceilings as smooth as butter. Ceiling re-texturing is not an easy job to do yourself. We will cover and protect your furnishings from dust and debris, use our professional tools and techniques, and finish with two coats of professional paint application.
Save yourself from a sore neck and dust in your eyes, or worse, a popcorn ceiling—choose Benchmark ceiling re-texturing service.
Unique Design Features With Custom Moulding Installations
When people think of mouldings in a home, they often think of crown mouldings and baseboards. While those applications are excellent for adding character to your home, moulding can also be used in creative ways to create a unique design feature in your home.
Here are some examples of custom moulding installations:
- Elevate the style of a room with a coffered ceiling.
- Transform a wall with the look of board and batten.
- Create a feature wall with a custom geometric wainscotting design.
The possibilities are nearly limitless, so bring your imaginative ideas to Benchmark Painting and we’ll make your dream design a reality.
Labour Day Marks the Start of Makeover Season!
After a beautiful summer we are excited to begin the busy fall renovation season. Many clients find the fall an ideal time to freshen up their homes with interior paint and moulding installations. You can give your space an inviting makeover to prepare for holiday entertaining and house guests.
Autumn can also be a great time to have the exterior of your home re-painted, especially in the early fall when the weather in the Lower Mainland tends to be clear and sunny.
For professional painting in the Lower Mainland, call Benchmark Painting at 604-803-5041. We would love to help you with your fall makeover!

How To Decide On a Paint Colour for Your Space
You know you want to repaint your living space, but you’re not sure what colour would look the best and work for the long term. Our 5 steps below explain how to decide on a paint colour for your space.
To begin, start with a broad decision and narrow down from there. If you would like to visualize your room in a variety of colours before making any decisions, try this online room colour visualizer by Sherwin Williams.
- Decide if you would like a light colour or a dark colour. Light colours expand space and brighten a room while dark colours create a cozy, intimate feeling.
- Decide if you would like a warm colour, a cool colour, or a neutral colour. This is often a matter of personal colour preference, but could also depend on how you are using the space and how you want the space to feel.
- Narrow your choice on the colour wheel from either the warm colours or the cool colours. Search for a colour theory chart if you would to choose a colour based on its mood associations.
- Visit your paint store to pick up some paint chips in various shades of your chosen colour. Bring the paint chips to your space and compare them in that lighting.
- Once you have your favourite shades narrowed down to two or three, the best way to find the right one is to purchase sample paint in those shades and paint generous sample applications to your wall, side by side for accurate light comparison. That way you can see how the paint colour looks on your wall, in your lighting.
Deciding on your paint colour can be the hardest part of painting your space. Once you have your paint colour chosen, call us at Benchmark Painting for a no-obligation written quote of our professional painting service—604.803.5041
Another happy client for Benchmark’s recommended interior decorator Decorata Design
At Benchmark Painting we strive for happy clients, and that’s why we only work with and recommend the best in our industry. We recently recommended interior decorator Sue Womersley of Decorata Design to our client, who then called us to say how happy she is with Sue’s work, because she took the stress out of the renovation. A stress-free renovation? That’s when you know you’re working with the best.
Add Character to Your Home with Mouldings
Many modern homes lack character because they don’t have finishing touches, such as mouldings, which can enhance the home’s architectural features. Mouldings are a great way to add character to your home, and can be a very easy way to make a big impact particularly when you hire a professional to install the moulding.
Baseboards not only cover the seam between the flooring and the wall, they can also transform the look of the space just by changing their size and profile.
Crown mouldings add a feeling of grandeur to a room, as well as making it appear larger by drawing the eye up to the ceiling.
Mouldings can be traditional or modern, and can be applied in creative and custom ways for a unique design. Call Benchmark Painting at 604.803.5041 to get a custom quote for your moulding installation.

Give Your Home’s Curb Appeal A Fresh Look This Summer
Summer is a great time to change the exterior paint colour of your home. The dry weather is ideal for paint application, and our painters love to get a suntan while painting your home!
Winters can be hard on your home’s exterior paint, causing fading and thinning over time. A fresh coat of paint on your home’s siding and exterior window framing can bring your home back to life. It’s also a great opportunity to change the colour scheme of your home for an updated curb appeal.
