Interior painting can be a very inexpensive approach to brighten up the interior of your home. Painting is sometimes accomplished as a DIY project, but professional painters and decorators can guarantee a perfect appearance and guarantee that your decoration will last as long as possible.
You might spend longer preparing to paint than actually painting. It is important to clean and prepare all wall surfaces and ceilings before painting, together with to mask off any areas which shouldn't be painted like skirting, architrave, plug sockets and light switches. Cover up home furniture and carpets or flooring in the area with sheets to protect from any splashes. When painting internally, apply a primer coat as a base layer then several coats of paint, leaving each coat time to dry in between.
Interior painters and decorators can present you with lots of advice about paint and help you find the right colour scheme for your internal rooms.
The average cost of a Painting and decorating is £800. Costs vary based upon the materials and the contractor chosen. The upper price range can be as high as £920. The material costs are mainly around £200

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 Paint A Radiator
First thing you should know about painting a radiator is that normal paints can’t be used to do the job, however that doesn’t mean it’s not cheap, easy and fun - it definitely is and even more so, when you do it the right way. With a few radiator painting hints here, it’s only a matter of time before you start painting your radiators every colour of the rainbow delightfully.
Painting a radiator is not one of the most common tasks on most people’s to do list, so we’ve created this article as an encouraging nudge to allow more people let their creativity manifest through a brush. However, this is not to say that this is a task for everyone though as you won’t like to make a mess of your radiator. If you know you can’t pick up a brush or bend a knee or your back here and there, then you probably shouldn’t. In such cases, hiring a professional painter would be your best bet to get the best results while also saving yourself some time and money.
To paint a radiator, you’ll need a paint brush, suitable radiator paint, dust sheet and a radiator paint brush (optional).
✓ Turn off the radiator and leave it to cool off. Once it’s cold, simply wipe out all dust, dirt or grease from the radiator.
✓ Protect the flooring under the radiator from any paint splatter with a by spreading out a dust cloth.
✓ Use a suitable radiator paint to brush out well and lay off evenly in a direction. Leave it to dry overnight. Then apply paint on the radiator in direction of the grooves with the help of a top quality brush.
✓ Paint in sections and move across the radiator slightly overlapping until you get to the end. The move to paint the other areas.
✓ Leave the paint to dry as instructed in the manufacturer’s instructions, then apply a second coat if necessary.
There are lots of paints that are suitable for different areas of your property. In general, gloss and eggshell paints should be used in high traffic areas, whereas matte paints are suitable for lower traffic areas.
