Interior painting can be a very reasonably priced means to brighten up the inside of your property. Painting is sometimes accomplished as a DIY job, but experienced painters and decorators can make sure a great appearance and ensure that your redecorating will look its best for as long as possible.
You might spend longer getting ready to paint than actually painting. It is critical to clean and prepare all walls and ceilings before painting, along with to mask off any areas which shouldn't be painted such as skirting, architrave, power sockets and light switches. Protect furnishings and any carpets or flooring in the area with sheets to catch any stains. If you're painting inside, use a primer coat as a base followed by a number of coats of paint, allowing each coat time to dry in between.
Interior painters and decorators can give you lots of guidance about paint and help you find the right colour scheme for your interior spaces.

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.
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.
You should always wait until plaster is dry before painting. The time this will take varies depending on the room and property, but in general, it will take about a week. Your plasterer will tell you how long it is best to leave it before covering or painting their work.
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.
