Painting Services Preparation Guide

The quality of a paint job depends as much on preparation as on the painting itself. A little prep protects your home and helps the finish last for years.

Before the painters arrive

  • Move or cover furniture and lay down floor protection
  • Take down wall hangings, curtains and fittings
  • Point out any cracks, dampness or mould to be treated

Surface preparation

  • Patch and sand cracks and holes
  • Clean greasy or dusty walls so paint adheres
  • Prime stains and fresh plaster before top coats

Choosing your finish

  • Washable finishes for kitchens, hallways and kids’ rooms
  • Anti-mould paint for bathrooms and humid areas
  • Test colours on a small patch before committing

ALLDONE painting delivers clean lines, even coverage and a tidy handover — interior or exterior, done properly.
