Celebrating Professional Painters for Contractor Appreciation Month

Celebrating Pro Appreciation Month

March was Pro Appreciation Month! This is a time to recognize and thank the professional contractors and painters who work hard to keep homes and businesses looking their best. Painting pros make a huge contribution to communities across the country. Their skills and expertise are invaluable for both residential and commercial projects. At Benjamin Moore, we wanted to take this month to show our support for these hardworking individuals.

The Importance of Professional Painters

Professional painters and contractors bring a level of quality and workmanship that is hard to match. Their experience allows them to expertly prepare surfaces, choose the right paints and tools, and apply coatings smoothly and efficiently. This results in a clean, attractive finished product. Professionals know the best practices for prepping and painting various surfaces like drywall, brick, stucco, metals, and more. They understand how to work with different sheens and finishes to achieve a desired look. Their knowledge of products and processes is a major benefit for any paint job.

In addition to skills, pros bring specialized equipment that allows them to safely reach tricky areas and apply coatings consistently. They invest in high-quality tools like sprayers, ladders, drop cloths, brushes, rollers, and more. This makes the painting process faster with professional-grade results. Painters also know how to properly clean up the job site when work is complete. Their eye for detail ensures every last spot of overspray or splatter gets cleaned up. Professionals have the expertise to complete all painting tasks efficiently while minimizing disruption.

Celebrating with Contractors Nationwide

For Pro Appreciation Month, Benjamin Moore wanted to thank painting pros for their outstanding efforts throughout the year. We partnered with contractors across the country to provide special recognition and prizes. Stores nationwide hosted contractor breakfasts and lunch-and-learns to connect with local professionals. It was a great opportunity to show our gratitude for everything they do.

Stores also offered exclusive promotions and giveaways for contractors only. Some examples included discounts on paint and supplies, free t-shirts and hats, raffles for gift cards and prizes, and more. We also shared inspirational contractor spotlights on social media highlighting pros in the community. Our national #PaintersWhoPaint hashtag campaign recognized the contributions of painters everywhere.
