Painting / Decorating in New Malden

Interior painting can be a really inexpensive way to reinvigorate the inside of your property. Painting is sometimes carried out as a DIY job, but experienced painters and decorators can assure the optimal appearance and guarantee that your decoration is going to last as long as possible.

 

The key to successful painting is planning. Carefully opt for a paint shade or think about choosing two shades to create an accent wall. Additionally take into consideration the finish, as paints will come in different finishes like gloss, satin, egg shell or matte. Gloss and satin will be more durable in high traffic spaces. There's a huge assortment of suppliers and paints available so make sure to look around to get the paint that's the most suitable for your room.

 

Interior painters and decorators can supply you with lots of suggestions about paint and help you find the ideal colour palette for your interior rooms.

New Malden

New Malden is a residential area in southwest London, in the boroughs of Kingston and Merton. It is set 9.4 miles from Charing Cross, with neighboring areas being Kingston upon Thames, Raynes Park, Surbiton, Tolworth, Wimbledon and Worcester Park. The town established entirely since of the coming of the railway when New Malden Railway Station opened in 1846 on the main line from Waterloo. The name comes from the former village of old Malden, which was 2 miles to the south of the town, which translates from Old English as 'the cross on the hill'. Construction of residences went off with a sluggish start, beginning to increase nearer the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century after the establishment of both two and 3 bed room terraced houses. From the 1930s, the building of detached and semi-detached houses started. The town is home to a large assortment of social, sports and leisure activities. The Malden Centre is a sports centre including a swimming pool, a health club and community facilities, as well as offering adult learning courses. A football pitch, tennis courts, a kids's play area, allotments and open space can be found at Beverley Park. In terms of shopping options, the 15000 citizens of Malden have a number of independent and nationwide stores in which to go shopping. Formed in 1913, Tudor Williams Ltd. is a family-run department store situated in the High Street. The company has stores throughout England, most recently in Elphicks of Farnham and Knights of Reigate. Throughout the Christmas period of each year, the High Street is covered with lights, having its own switching-on ceremony. For all of your home upgrades, make certain to make use of credible specialists in New Malden to make certain of quality.

FAQs

how to paint skirting boards?

How To Paint Skirting Boards

In the exact same way a room isn’t complete unless it has all the right finishing touches here and there, your skirting boards also just wouldn’t be right leaving it without a paint. As you can imagine, skirting board can quickly gather dust, dirt and scuffed over time can affect the appearance of the entire room. But you don’t have to wait for this to happen before painting your skirting boards. Good news is, painting of skirting boards is relatively easy and straightforward especially when you follow the guide given in this article. It should, however, be said that if you’re not so confident about holding a brush and doing the task yourself, then getting a professional painter to complete the project will be a great option to achieve the best result while you can focus on other important things.

Painting your skirting board will help provide your room with the much needed perfect frame. Now let’s take a closer look!

✓ Prepare your skirting boards. Treat your wood skirting board with a knotting solution and wood primer. But if they’re already painted or varnished, simply wipe clean use a wet and dry paper with a mild detergent to abrade the surface. Once done, you can then run a strip of masking tape along the floor.

✓ Start Painting. For the decorative coat, you can use any paint designed for wood and metal like satin, gloss etc. Once selected, you can then start to paint across the top with the help of a 2 inch brush. Then move to the flat side. Work in easy to manage sections and when starting the next section, start at the far side and brush into the section you’ve just painted so as to make for an even finish. Finally, remove the masking tape used before the paint dries off.

Which type of paint should I use?

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. Professional painters and decorators can give you advice on the most suitable types of paints.

what insurance does a painter need?

What Insurance Does A Painter Need?

As a painter, you’re most likely going to require three forms of insurance which includes public liability, income protection as well as tool insurance. However, you should take note that outside these three, there are also several other forms of insurance whose relevance will only be determined by the nature of your business. Now let’s take a closer look into the three most important forms of insurance for painters.

✓ Public liability. What’s surprising here is the fact that many painters are actually aware that they should have a public liability insurance, but only a few really knows what it actually covers. Essentially, what a public liability insurance does is to protect you in the event whereby you messed up and some else suffers a loss as a result of your actions. Third parties can suffer a property damage or personal injury as a result of your negligence. It does not in any way cover the damages to your own property or injuries suffered by you or your staff.

✓ Income protection. As a subcontractor or self employed painter, you’ll be in the best position to know that if you don’t work, there’ll be no money for you. And with no sick leave and possibly no workers’ compensation, then financial problem looms. But not to worry, you can protect yourself from this risk by getting an income protection insurance.

✓ Tool insurance. It’s always a terrible feeling when you go to the site only to discover your tools such as ladders, spray guns, trestles and equipment are suddenly no where to be found. Upon discovery of this situation, you’ll start thinking about the cost of replacing all the tools. With a tool insurance, you can be protected against these sort of situations whereby your tools are stolen, damaged and lots more.

how to prep walls for painting?

How To Prep Walls For Painting

This is exactly the part of a wall painting job that can make or mar the whole project. 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. However, it’s advisable to thoroughly inspect the surfaces before you proceed to painting and take the necessary actions where required.

This is a very simple DIY job that should be completed in little time, however it’s also perhaps the most important step of the entire painting project. Hence, if you lack the confidence to pull this off, then we’d recommend employing a painting expert who can guarantee the best results for help. In this guide, we’ll should you how you can prepare your wall for painting.

✓ Cleaning. There is no single best way to properly clean a wall, but most walls will be just fine with a sponge and warm water. 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.
