About us
Paint Color Help.com is a unique service that addresses a common problem: difficulty in picking colors for paint, stain and other materials. My name is Juli Roland, and I'm D/FW's original Color Consultant, with over 15 years experience. I spent seven years as a custom matcher in the paint industry, and have studied color science with famed strategist, Lori Sawaya. Now I come to you, bringing thousands of color samples from all major paint brands, so we can evaluate them under your particular lighting conditions. At the end of our visit, you'll have a complete list of color recommendations. While I'm there, I can also advise on color choices for flooring, countertops, cabinets, and fabrics as needed - just have samples on hand. A visit within Dallas is just $70/hr, less than the cost of two gallons of paint. So don't make an expensive mistake! Call today for a fast consultation at 214-823-2304. Or email [email protected]. Rates for other zones are $80, $90 and $100/hr, based on distance from Dallas. See website for complete details.

Juli doesn't beat around the bush... if you mention an idea that causes her some concern she will politely describe why it might not be such a great idea. In other words, you get what you pay for... sound advice. However, the entire process took a little over an hour, so she charged us very little money for the exceptional services and advice that she provided.
Once inside, she asked me about my style, color preferences and ideas for the house and then we got to work. Within one hour she had picked the perfect colors, offered advice on painting both sides of the front door black (which I would never have thought of), suggested painting the ugly old bathroom cabinets black to give them some "life" and to paint the mantle black (which also, would never have crossed my mind).
To date, my house is painted in the EXACT colors she picked out for each room and I have NEVER been more proud of a house and I've owned 6. It looks amazing, warm, fresh and inviting - just like I envisioned. Actually even better than I envisioned to be honest.
I went into this task stressed beyond measure and the minute Juli arrived at our house on that Monday - I just knew it was all going to work out fine. She is calm, precise, honest, fast, professional, FUNNY and fun to work with.
Now, being on the other side of the project and seeing all the colors together, I can say the paint colors are absolutely perfect.
Thank you Juli. You are a master at your art and I appreciate that you share it so willingly and at such a reasonable cost!
Before we visited our new house, she came to my current home to view some art pieces and fabrics I wanted to incorporate into the design. She brought an assortment of color decks with her and had large poster-sized samples of several shades. After narrowing our choices down, we took the samples to the other house and made our final selections, taking into account the light in the rooms, existing cabinetry, and flooring. I think the whole process took us about two hours.
She offered consistently helpful advice. For example: When I noted that the gray color I had originally considered seemed to wash out against the kitchen cabinets, she suggested using greys with blue or green undertones to counterbalance the yellow undertones of the cabinetry. And she was right on. The grey with a colored undertone transformed the space. It instantly looked brighter.
I also appreciated that although she was very willing to offer her opinion on which shades she preferred, the selection process was very client-led and allowed me time to come to my own decision. I'm extremely pleased with the colors we selected, and the house looks wonderful. My only regret is that I didn't call her sooner!
She gave GREAT advice and was very personable. She found the colors based on the current setup of the house, our style etc. She made recommendations the day of the appointment. If we didn't like something, she gave other options. She gave us her opinions in each room, and described reasons why certain colors wouldn't work, would work etc etc.
I wish we had found her years ago. This saved a billion trips to the paint store...which would have been painful. When she left, we had agreed which paints to use and we are now focused on hiring a painter. She gave us everything we needed to pick these paints up at about any paint store.
She also gave me a fun and updated suggestion of a color to paint my front door to give the house greater "curb appeal"
She kept me informed about the time of her arrival and gave me the full hour I was paying for.
She is a great person to work with.
