Painting a room can change its character, but doing so rarely can change its memory that it was once home to the cat's litter box. Muster up some character for your rooms with today's Groupon: for $89, you get one room of painting from Areté Renovators Inc. (a $285 value). This Groupon includes the setup, cleanup, and labor for painting one bedroom or bathroom up to 12'x14'. Customers must supply their own paint or primer, and must move furniture out of the room to be painted.

The father-son-son team of licensed and insured painters at Areté Renovators Inc. rejuvenates homes' walls with fresh color ensembles. After the prep work, which includes draping floors and furniture and bestowing the bright blue badge of painter's tape on trim and windowpanes, the brush-wielding artisans lay down a primer coat before rolling on a glossy layer of the homeowner's choice of paint. Those who forgo the primer receive a top-coat sequel instead, which fills holes left in the wall's original storyline.
