Putney Painters and Decorators

Specification.

On first sight, this one-bedroom flat in Putney did not need any painting and decorating. Especially with the abundance of natural light shining into this 4th floor flat. However the landlord clearly cared about their property investment as well as pleasing the new tenants. All ceilings and walls were in standard Pure Brilliant White matt emulsion, only in some parts it was not so brilliant.

Before we commenced painting and decorating of this flat, our Putney Painter and Decorator removed all curtain poles, soft furnishings and protected all bedding, sofas etc. Lampshades were removed and floor rugs rolled up and stowed away under protected sheeting. To protect the wood floorcovering, we placed low tack masking to the skirting board edge so we could paint closely and quickly. Our Putney Painter also used low-tack masking tape to protect the clean chrome door hinges to ensure a professional sharp finish.

Methodical and thorough preparation by the Putney decorator.

When our Putney Painters started painting and decorating, he focused on the kitchen that required a little more attention due to some signs of discolouration around the cooker, hob and extraction fan. All ceilings and walls were roll painted in Dulux Trade Supermatt Pure Brilliant White throughout the apartment. Our Putney Painter had to work effectively and efficiently not just because of time constraints but limited room to manoeuvre while carrying out painting and decorating. Especially in the bedroom.

After completing the walls and ceiling, our Putney painter started to paint all woodwork using an hard-wearing acrylic eggshell. Our go-to paint we recommend for flat rentals.

During this work, our Putney painter and decorator noticed that the MDF fitted cupboard doors were previously painted in Matt Emulsion. The same paint applied to the plaster walls. This is evidence of the previous painter and decorator cutting corners to save time. A Matt Emulsion paint is not designed for wood. Our painter and decorator soon put this right by painting all doors in acrylic eggshell to give a soft sheen distinctive to the matt walls.

After completing the painting and decorating, our Putney Painter and Decorator had removed all floor and surface protection. Then reinstated all soft furnishings including lampshades, curtains, rugs and sofas. This Putney flat was ready to welcome its new tenants.
