Interior painting can be a really cost-effective technique to refresh the inside of your property. Painting is often undertaken as a DIY project, but professional painters and decorators can guarantee the best appearance and ensure that your decoration will last as long as possible.
You may invest more time preparing to paint than actually painting. It's critical to clean and prepare all wall surfaces and ceilings before painting, as well as to mask off any regions that should not be painted over such as skirting, architrave, power sockets and light switches. Protect furnishings as well as any carpets or flooring in the area with sheets to protect against any splashes. If you're painting internally, apply a primer coat as a base then several coats of paint, giving each layer time to dry in between.
Interior painters and decorators can give you plenty of guidance about paint and help you pick the right colour palette 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 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.
