Professionals are playing an increasingly influential role in helping homeowners choose the right paint colours, according to new research from Crown Trade.
The nationwide survey found that almost all decorators (99%) are asked by customers for input on colour decisions, underlining the demand for supportive colour tools and resources that will help build colour confidence amongst professional painters and decorators.
While decorators are ready to provide guidance, the right tools and resources remain vital. According to the data, nearly 80% rely on access to essential tools such as colour cards and fan decks to help customers visualise and compare options.
Kathryn Lloyd, colour consultant at Crown Trade said: “The data confirms that decorators play a vital role in guiding customers through choices that can transform a space. At Crown Trade, we’re committed to being a supportive partner to professionals, ensuring professionals have the tools, resources and confidence they need to deliver great results and leave customers happy.”
