What is Painting and Decorating
Painting and Decorating is a construction trade that involves applying paint or other suitable finishes to solid substrates. Common substrates include timber, plaster, metal, render, MDF, lining paper and masonry.
While painting and decorating is taken up by many DIY enthusiasts, it has an extremely important role to play in the maintenance and upkeep of your home. Therefore, we highly recommend using a professional painting team to carry out any painting or decorating in your property.
Paint is an adhesive, with a chemical composition designed to protect and enhance the underlying substrate. There are many paints and materials out there that can be used as part of a redecoration project. Many of these products serve specific functions and are designed especially for the underlying material. With our level of experience, Painters and Decorators Sheffield can advise on the right paint to use for the situation – further demonstrating the value we can bring.
Another important aspect to painting and decorating is preparation. Paint and other finishes will only adhere to substrates that have been prepared properly for the type of finish to be used. This is an essential and often overlooked factor by many inexperienced DIY enthusiasts. You will notice when a substrate has not been prepared properly as you will see flaking paint, or rust and staining may show through. In more extreme cases, lack of proper preparation can cause timber rot which can compromise the structural integrity of the underlying timber. This lack of preparation stops the paint doing the job that it is made to do. When applied properly, paint provides a thin protective coat, much like a layer of clothing. This layer protects against water penetration, chemical attack, mould growth, rust, dirt, grime and more depending on the scenario. All of these factors help to maintain the structural integrity and appearance of the underlying material, keeping your property in perfect condition.
The most obvious function of painting and decorating is to provide your property with a pleasant cosmetic appearance. Paints are available in many different grades, colours, and finishes. It is important to choose the right one to match the desired finish you are after. Most paint suppliers can provide hundreds, if not thousands, of colours for you to choose from and some even offer a bespoke ‘colour matching service’. Light colours can be useful for instances where you need to enhance natural daylight and dark colours are suitable for small feature areas. Whatever your preference is, there is sure to be a paint colour out there to suit your tastes. When selected correctly, paint can help to improve your mood as well as the energy performance of your building. Call and ask our professionals for advice on which colours and finishes to use in your home. We will be more than happy to help!
Wallpapering is another common interior design material and has experienced somewhat of a resurgence in recent years. Wallpapers are typically applied to plastered walls to improve the aesthetics and give some level of surface protection. Designer wallpapers are available in thousands of different styles, patterns, and colours to meet a variety of preferences. As with paint, it is imperative to ensure the wall has been prepared properly to make sure that the wallpaper can adhere properly without peeling or bubbling. To ensure that your wallpaper looks its best, it is worthwhile getting the job done by a professional. Bad wallpapering jobs can really ruin the look of any feature wall and we have seen many times where an expensive wallpaper has been ruined by poor application. A top tip is to make sure that you purchase wallpaper from the same batch number to be certain that each roll will be the same. Contact our painter decorator team today if you have some designer wallpaper that you need hanging and get peace of mind that your wallpaper will look great whatever the style!

Painting and Decorating Frequently Asked Questions
HOW PAINTERS CHARGE?
Your quote will be based on a number of different factors including: the size of the room / area to be redecorated, the time and labour required to complete the job, number of coats and preparation necessary, the materials to be used, whether the materials will be supplied by the customer or us, the desired finish and any other additional items that are not immediately apparent during the initial consultation. Our experienced team may be able to give you an accurate estimate over the phone, but on occasion we may need to visit to get a better idea of the requirements
WILL PAINTERS MOVE FURNITURE?
Our painters will be happy to move furniture for you, however we like to advise all our customers to try to clear the rooms to be redecorated themselves. We treat all our customer’s homes and possessions as if they are our own, but we know that you may have some extra special items of personal value, so we do recommend that you clear these items yourself. Keep in mind that any requests to move furniture will be included in our quote, so you may have to pay a little more due to the additional time and labour involved.
CAN YOU PAINT TO COVER CRACKS?
Painting over cracks is not advised if you want to achieve a high quality finish. Cracked paint can be caused by various factors including damp, mould, cracked plaster and cracks in the paint layer itself. Cracked paint can also occur in areas where changes in temperature occur rapidly during the drying process. To remedy cracks, it is important to first establish the root cause of the problem. Next, remove any flaking and cracked paint to a sound edge, then repaint the area with the desired finish. If the plaster is cracked, then this should be filled with a suitable filler, allowed to dry, then sanded to a smooth finish for painting. Primer coats or mist coats may be required on new plaster or in particularly problematic areas.
WHICH PAINT SHOULD I USE IN A BATHROOM?
This question all depends on how much moisture accumulates in your bathroom throughout the day. Providing you keep your bathroom well ventilated (e.g. open the windows, install an extractor fan etc.) it should be perfectly fine to use a satin based paint on ceilings and walls. Satin based paints generally resist penetration of surface moisture. If your bathroom is not well ventilated, our painters and decorators recommend using a more hardwearing, specialist bathroom paint.
HOW LONG DO YOU HAVE TO WAIT TO PAINT OVER NEW PLASTER?
New plaster can take anywhere from approximately two days to one week to fully dry. Plaster that has been applied to plasterboards takes around two-three days to dry. Plaster that is put on walls or render can take longer, around 4-7 days. We always advise to wait at least one week before painting or wallpapering over plaster. This allows plenty of time for it to fully dry. A uniform like pink colour is a key indicator that the plaster has dried. Apply a primer before painting your final colour. For an outstanding, durable finish always consult a professional painter and decorator.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD THE INTERIOR OF A PROPERTY BE PAINTED AND DECORATED
A number of aspects need to be considered when deciding how often the interior of a building should be painted and decorated. For instance, a family with young children may find their property needs painting on a more regular basis to keep it looking fresh, (e.g. every 2 years) because there is more footfall and the walls and woodwork are more prone to getting marked. Similarly, commercial buildings such as offices and schools may require frequent redecoration due to increased footfall and a high probability of wear and tear. In comparison, a property that is quieter and less busy, may be able to go longer between being painted and decorated (perhaps every 4/5 years).
HOW TO PREPARE WHEN PAINTING WALLS?
This is a question that is regularly asked by our customers. To get an exceptional finish to your interior walls and ceilings we recommend having them skimmed before they are painted or wallpapered. This will provide them with a smooth and even finish. However, if your budget is tight or you only have minor blemishes then you may be able to get away with repairing the existing surfaces. As always ask a professional painter and decorator if you are unsure. A large amount of the overall finished look when painting and decorating will depend on the surface preparation. Any defects, small cracks or holes should be repaired and filled in, left to dry and sanded down. Sanding down the entire surface to be painted will not only help to create an even and smooth finish it will also improve the adherence of the paint to the walls and ceilings. Once you have sanded the workspace use soapy water and a sponge to gently clear away any dust that could get in the way of the paint and surface bond. Once this is done you should be ready to start applying a primer or paint. To achieve a flawless finish, we always recommend calling in the professionals. Contact Painters and Decorators Sheffield today on 0114 553 6997 for a free quote and great discounts.
CAN I PAINT THE EXTERIOR OF MY HOUSE IN COLD WEATHER?
Painting the exterior of your domestic or commercial property is harder in the Winter in comparison to Spring or Summer. There are a number of factors to contend with during the Winter that can negatively impact the performance of the project such as cold wet weather and fewer hours of daylight. The ideal time to paint the exterior of your property is between the months of April and October when the weather is warmer and the daylight hours are longer. This being said it is possible for an external painting and decorating project to be completed in the Winter. If you want to treat or work on any external workspace during the cold and wet months, painters and decorators needs to make sure to use the correct equipment and take necessary safety precautions. For example, purchase, quick drying and hard wearing premium masonry paint and do not paint in the dark. Also, schedule the painting for the middle of the day when the wall has warmed up, this will aid the bond between paint and wall, and speed up the drying time. Painting during middle of the day will also allow time for the paint to dry before the sun sets.
If you have read any of the above, then you will probably have an appreciation that painting and decorating is not as simple as it may first seem. A professional painting team can help eliminate any of the guess work in many jobs from whole house redecoration to external railing preparation. They will be able to offer technical advice and years of practical experience that you may not have.
Additional benefits to name a few include:
- advice and recommendations on the right finishes to use,
- knowledge of current market trends and styles,
- health and safety management,
- trade qualifications and technical expertise
- work carried out to a professional standard
- room mess and preparation taken care of
