Ashbourne

Ashbourne is a market town within the Derbyshire Dales in England. As a result of its proximity to the southern edge of the Peak District and being the nearest town to the well-known area of Dovedale, the town is known as both the 'Gateway to Dovedale' and the 'Gateway to the Peak District'. Because of this tourism has always been crucial to the town's economy. In line with the 2011 Census, the town features a resident population of about 8377 inhabitants. It contains numerous historical buildings and a lot of independent shops and is famous for its traditional yearly Shrovetide football match. The cobbled marketplace hosts a traditional outdoor market each Thursday and Saturday all through the year, complementing the large array of individual shops within the town. Even though its market heritage is significant, Ashbourne's market was under threat of closure from Derbyshire County Council in November 2012. Residents of Ashbourne have stood against any such moves by the council and created an online petition. Ashbourne became the 97th Fairtrade Town in March 2005 following several local enterprises, cafes, shops and community organisations began supporting Fairtrade. Ashbourne offers a big variety of public houses for a very little town centre. At present, you will find 10 pubs trading, in addition to two social clubs. The renowned and rare 'gallows' sign across St John's Street is still central meeting point in the town. Local historians have noted that nearly 1 in 4 buildings in the town have at one time or another been an alehouse, pub or inn or underwent renovations on the site of such an establishment. For all your house improvements, be sure that you use vetted pros in Ashbourne to ensure you get the most effective quality service.

How much for a painter to paint a room?

How Much For A Painter To Paint A Room?

If you’re looking to have your room painted, it’s only normal to get an idea of how much it’s going to cost so you can set a budget and start planning. As you would have expected, the cost of having a room painted is dependent on a wide array of influencing factors such as the size of your room, the type of paint to be used, your location and many more. As a result, providing a single and accurate answer to this question is almost impossible.

Generally, a regular 4 metres by 3 metres room will take just a couple of days to be fully painted including both the coving and woodwork. Outside London, most painters and decorators would charge within the range of £150 to £200 per day meaning that you’ll have a total labour cost within the range of £300 to £400. What’s more? You’d also have to consider the price of the paint to be used which is usually around £50. If you add all the costs together you’ll get an average cost of about £400 to £500.

Unfortunately, paint does not last an eternity. Therefore, there’ll come a time where you’d have to consider painting your room all over again. It may seem unwise to employ the services of a professional painter and decorator especially if you’re on a budget. However, in truth, calling in a professional can go a long way to save you time, stress and money. In other words, even if you’re worried about the cost, a professional painter is still your best bet in the long run as they know exactly what to do to ensure you derive maximum benefits from your painting project.

How To Prep Walls For Painting

To ensure that your paint project doesn’t end up being disastrous, the most important place to start is from room preparation which includes cleaning, sanding as well as priming the walls before painting. Not every wall will require to go through all the preparation steps as all walls are unique and some are in better conditions than others.

For walls that have been stained with oil or grime such as kitchen walls, you can apply grease cutting detergent and water mixture to wash and follow up with warm water to clean the residues and a damp cloth wiping to finish it off. Then leave to dry off properly.

✓ Remove mildrew. Wipe out mildrew using a sponge and solution that’s three to four parts water to one part bleach. Apply this solution and scrub the affected surface with a soft brush.

✓ Sanding. This step is only meant for walls with rough spots on its surface. Dull the uneven spots with a sandpaper, wipe away the dust and leave to dry. Use a fine grit sandpaper to sand the surfaces and let it dry properly.

✓ Priming. Prime the wall to get the most out of your paint. They work to disguise imperfections and create a smooth surface on which you can work on.

Can painters and decorators repair stained walls?

Yes, painters and decorators can repair stained, damp or mouldy walls. Usually, this process will involve stripping away the damaged paint and treating the area with specialist paint. After this is done, the damaged sections can be repainted to match the room.
