"How Should I paint my ceiling? What colour should I use? What paint should I use?" Confused? Here are some tips from the painters and decorators in North London! Ceilings get stained by things like leaks, light bulbs, and smoke from real wood fires and cigarettes. Scrubbing and repainting doesn’t always work. Using an oil-based stain-block or damp-seal paint first can prevent the stain coming through. Decorating ceilings should be done first! When using oil-based paint on a ceiling, be sure to wear safety goggles in case the paint gets in your eyes. Your painters and decorators in North London prefer to use a roller with an extension pole rather than a ladder to paint the bulk of the ceiling as it is safer, but we do getup there for the finishing touches! The easiest paints to use on ceilings are semi-solid paints. These splatter and drip

Giving your home a fresh coat of paint is one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to revamp your space and get a whole new look. That is unless you're doing it all wrong. But, a quality paint job is easy to achieve -- when you prepare the surface correctly and use the right tools and products. We've rounded up the most common painting mistakes that you may be making as well as simple fixes to get your projects done right. 1. Pulling painter's tape up after the paint dries.

Painting is a home improvement project that seems made for Autumn. A fresh coat of paint or a new colour scheme around the house can give a home an entirely new look and feel. But paint can be pungent and the aromas may last if it’s applied at a time of year when it can’t dry while the windows are wide open. Paint fumes inside a home can make the home uninhabitable, but painting at a time of year like the Autumn, when you can keep the windows open during and after the project, can help air the home out. But interior painting isn't the only painting project homeowners can tackle in the fall. Many exterior paints are temperature-sensitive and need the temperature outside to be above 5C. Paint that freezes won't dry properly, and homeowners might be left with a costly and unsightly mistake on their

A fresh paint a coat can brighten up any home, making it look new. With summer in reach, there’s no reason why we can’t get the ball rolling and get to work. Here are some ideas to spruce up your home! Adding paint is a great way to freshen up an ordinary-looking fireplace and make it the focal point of the room. You can even paint the existing tile around the fireplace if you'd like. To do so, make sure it is sanded, clean and dry. Then, apply a coat of blocking primer, let it sit overnight and then apply two coats of semigloss latex paint. A quick colour change can give an entryway a whole new look, but painting a door isn't exactly the most fun job on your to-do list. If your knobs are a little on the boring side, consider replacing them with these vibrant

If you're looking to paint your porch or railings this summer, here is some advice to get that smooth, glossy white finish. Using and oil based primer is essential. Oil-based primer is better for areas that get a lot of touching and use, such as doors, windows and cabinets. However, water-based primers are fine for areas that get less use or contact, such as crown moldings. And a water-based paint can generally be used over an oil-based primer, but following manufacturer directions is the best course. In other words, read the can! BM Enamel underbody is great to have, but not essential. It does make painting smoother, and is referred to water based primer which raise the wood grains and make it harder to sand in the long run.

Scaling or cracking: Often caused by multiple layers of old paint, the only remedy is complete removal. Flaking: loosened peeling paint chips.
