DIY tips to paint like a pro! Painting a room, or multiple rooms, in your home can be a daunting task. Most people opt to hire a professional to do the job. However, hiring a professional is not always necessary. If you are considering painting the interior of your home on your own, this article is for you. Below we will discuss some DIY tips to paint like a pro. Prepare the walls for painting Before beginning your paint job, be sure to prepare your walls for the paint beforehand. You can do this by cleaning the walls thoroughly and allowing them time to dry. Also, inspect the walls for any holes or other repairs and make the repairs before painting as well. Paint typically sticks better to a clean surface, so be sure to clean the walls as best as you can. [caption id="attachment_87" align="aligncenter" width="300"] Picture Source:

To keep your home’s exterior looking its best—and prolong its life—experts recommend painting every five years or so. Preparing the Exterior Surface for Painting Here’s the step-by-step process for proper surface preparation which gives you the best results and a longer lasting paint job. 1. Power Wash The Surface A power washer is the best way to eliminate dirt and peeling/flaking paint from most types of siding. (Do not power wash stucco since it can destroy the surface in seconds.) Keep the spray wand at least 12 in. from the siding to prevent surface gouging. Don’t spray up under the siding flaps. Don’t use it to clean windows: it will break the glass. Always wear eye protection; never spray on a windy day. For the cleanest surface, use a good cleaning agent with the power washer, such as TSP or an all-purpose cleaner. Once the cleaning agent has been

Most people look online and in the papers for potential new home, so the pictures and the price are a real eye catcher. The right colour of paint can bring in the buyers! Rumour has it that we are supposed to use neutral colours, but does anyone know why? They sit in the background and do not get noticed, making your house invisible to the potential buyers. If you have trouble selecting a suitable but out-of-the-box colour, you could always ask a professional painter and decorator to help you choose. Absolute Decorating are always happy to help you pick and choose what you need to spruce up any home. We complete work in the Enfield and surrounding areas. Manufacturers have ready made pallets for you to choose from. If you live in an area that regularly sees sunshine, aim for the brighter colours so your house can shine

Whether the paint is peeling or you just want to change your home’s look, a fresh coat of paint can make a dramatic difference. Colour can be used to create a mood and evoke an emotional response. Certain colours can energize – think red, orange and yellow – while others can be calming – blues, greens and purples. Neutral colours like white convey simplicity and cleanliness. But before the first brush is dipped into the paint can, make sure to prep the surfaces. On the exterior, peeling or chipped paint needs to be scraped away and bare wood needs to be primed. Inside, walls need to be cleaned and trim taped off. PREPARE THE SURFACE BEFORE PAINTING Take time to caulk all joints, cracks and seams in the surface before painting. Before painting windows, check around the window panes for loose or missing putty. Replace the putty in these areas

Whether you're prepping your home for market or improving your new purchase, nothing brightens a home like a fresh coat of paint. These signs mean it's time for a paint job: Chalking: A formation of fine powder on paint surfaces that can cause color fading if left unchecked. Scaling or cracking: Often caused by multiple layers of old paint, the only remedy is complete removal. Flaking: loosened peeling paint chips. Alligatoring: Deep fissures caused by long-term cracking. Complete removal is the only treatment. Lead threats: A health hazard, immediately remove lead paint. Discoloration Loose caulking: Avoid rotting and disrepair by checking window panes and doorframes.
