Continue swinging until the object is completely destroyed.

Tips

The Sledgehammer is particularly useful for clearing out entire rooms or making large openings.

Some materials may require multiple hits to break down.
The Sledgehammer is not used for placing or building, only for removing existing structures.

Paint Cans

Paint cans are a fundamental tool in House Flipper, essential for transforming drab interiors into desirable living spaces. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about using them effectively.

Walkthrough

1
Acquire Paint Cans: Purchase paint cans from the in-game store. They come in various colors and finishes.
2
Select Paint: Choose the desired paint color and finish from your inventory.
3
Apply Paint: Equip the paint can and aim at the wall or surface you wish to paint. Hold down the designated button (usually the left mouse button) and drag your cursor across the surface.
4
Coverage: Ensure complete coverage of the area. You may need multiple passes or a second coat for optimal results, especially with lighter colors over dark backgrounds.
5
Trim and Details: Use the paint tool for detailed work around windows, doors, and other architectural features.
6
Clean Up: After painting, you may need to clean up any drips or smudges with a cloth.

Tips

Color Choice: Consider the overall aesthetic of the house and the target buyer when choosing colors. Neutral tones are often safest, but bold accent walls can add personality.
Finish Matters: Different finishes (e.g., matte, satin, gloss) can affect the look and feel of a room.
Experiment: Don't be afraid to experiment with different color combinations and techniques to create unique designs.
Order Jobs: Sometimes, painting is a requirement for specific client orders. Pay attention to the client's preferences.
Sell for Profit: Well-painted rooms significantly increase a house's value, leading to higher profits upon sale.
