Interior painting can be an extremely cheap means to refresh the interior of your house. Painting is often performed as a DIY project, but experienced painters and decorators can guarantee a perfect finish and ensure that your redecorating is going to look its best for as long as possible.
You might devote more time to preparing to paint than actually painting. It is highly recommended to clean and prepare all walls and ceilings prior to painting, along with to mask off any regions that should not be painted such as skirting, architrave, plug sockets and light switches. Cover household furniture as well as carpets or flooring in the room with sheets to collect any spills. If you're painting inside, make use of a primer coat as a base followed by a number of coats of paint, leaving each layer time to dry in between.
Interior painters and decorators can present you with plenty of recommendations about paint and help you select the ideal colour palette for your interior 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

Can You Paint Over A Wallpaper?
According to some painting and decoration experts, painting over a wallpaper can never produce a result that’ll be as good as painting on a blank or naked wall. However in the event whereby there’s a pressing need to quickly beautify a room, it’ll be totally understandable if you don’t want to go through the hassle of the time consuming old wallpaper removal process.
Therefore, the short and simple answer to this question is yes, it’s absolutely possible to paint over a wallpaper and get a good outcome so far you don’t rush the process. To ensure your success if you want to paint over a wallpaper, there’s also the need to use the right tools and techniques. And just like any other DIY project, proper preparation before commencement is key.
If you’re going to paint over a wallpaper, many of the tools you’ll need to acquire are the standard painting and decorating products. This means that they can be easily procured at many DIY stores. To paint over a wallpaper, you’ll need a paint roller, top quality paint brushes, joint compound ( you’ll only need this in situations whereby your wallpaper is damaged or peeling), oil based primer, tape, sandpaper, paint ( can be water, solvent or oil based paints) as well as drop clothes ( for the protection of your furnitures).
As a rule of thumb, if you can easily remove the existing wallpaper, then you probably should before you start to paint the walls. However, if removing the wallpaper seems to be a pain or can significantly damage your wall, then it’ll be smart to simply paint over it. But before you proceed, you must also note that painting over the wallpaper will make it even harder to remove later in the future.
Your painter and decorator will carry out most of the preparation work for your project. You can help them by ensuring that the area is clean and tidy. Also, remove as many personal items and pieces of furniture from the area as possible and make sure all your internal doors are firmly closed just in case of dust from rubbing down.
Interior painters and decorators will offer a wide range of services. These range from painting and wallpapering to other decorating jobs such as fitting skirting or architrave. Some painters and decorators will be trained to plaster as well, however, you should always ask them about this and not assume they will all be able to.
We can help you get more painting and decorating work with our qualified job leads and boost your business.
