•  What does a painter and decorator do?

Painters and decorators typically carry out a number of different elements to each job, broadly these are broken down into two areas:
1. Prep work - sanding back existing areas, making sure that the surfaces are prepared so that new paint will bond successfully, this particularly relevant on woodwork as if it is not sanded back then the paint will quickly chip off.
2. Painting - this can be carried out by a number of methods depending on the size of the job, either by brush, roller or by sprayer (typically for bigger jobs). Cutting in, is where you are painting the edges of the job against either a different coloured wall, door, ceiling etc, and this is the more technical part of a painting job.

Using a painting and decorating contractor in Hertfordshire can save you time, and potentially provide you with a superior finish than completing the work for yourself. Most of our customers recognise that by getting a professional contractor in then they are saving themselves time and hassle.

•  How much does it cost to paint a room in Hertfordshire in 2022?

There are a number of variables here, first it depends on the quality of the walls, if the plaster is falling off, then potentially the room may require re-skimming or replastering which can make the process more expensive, but if not, then the variables are the cost of the paint which you are selecting, if you are going for a standard brand such as Johnsons or Dulux that is one cost, however if you go for a premium brand such as Farrow & Ball or Pretty Green this will increase the costs. Finally the manpower time. Get in touch with our team and we will give you a free no obligation quotation to repaint a room in Hertforshire.
