Having your house or flat painted by an expert exterior painter could help increase the value of your house, as for potential buyers this is one of the first things they see, however, with house prices not doing much at the moment more and more people staying where they are why give your home a facelift and impress neighbours and friends. You could post a job on MyHammer for a reliable painter and decorator to give your house a new image and help keep things interesting. Just because you might have to stay put at the moment, doesn’t mean you have to leave things the way they are; a good painter will give you advice and ideas on how to get the most out of your home and make rooms look cosy and comfortable with traditional wallpaper or larger and lighter with some pastel paints. Maybe your children are growing out of the dinosaur wallpaper and want an upgrade with a professional finish or maybe your hallway and stairs doesn’t match the rest of the interior, either way it can be a lot easier and cheaper to hire a rated tradesman or handyman to bring their own equipment such as brushes, paints, tools, tables and covers rather than buying and then cleaning and storing the equipment until you need it again in a few years. Whether it’s a London penthouse or a Yorkshire cottage, a qualified painter could save you a lot of bother by recommending colours and patterns that work and then getting the job down efficiently and fast so that your room can be used again as fast as possible. Certain jobs such as plastering can be done on your own if you like DIY however getting wrong could leave your wall looking like a mountain range. Dirty and cracked walls can easily spoil the look and feel of a room especially in kitchens and bathrooms. Whether gloss, emulsion or wood stain when posting a job on MyHammer you can specify exactly what you want to have done. One of the most laborious tasks with Painting and Decorating is the initial preparation. This can be messy and timely but if you’re looking for a cheap quote to save money you could try posting a job where you have prepared the walls yourself first and leave the technical work to the experts. When stripping walls some walls are easier than others depending on the number of layers, the quality of the plaster and the type of paints previously used for instance oil based paints. An experience tradesman or tradeswoman can avoid taking off chunks of plaster along with all the layers of build up paint and paper by using their experience and tools. When posting a job on MyHammer specify how many rooms for example 2 rooms and hallway and then give the dimensions of the rooms to help tradespeople make an accurate quote. You walls don’t have to be a uniform colour either, by having different colour tones and patterns on different walls you can alter the ambience of a room. Wall tattoos are also becoming popular but instead of buying the same ones your friends have, why not post a job to have a painter create your own unique and personalised design?
