If you're thinking about renovating your interior design with a few splashes of paint, you might like to consider hiring a professional tradesperson to ensure that those splashes of paint don't end up on your dining table.
Even though many of us have the DIY gene, sometimes we just don't have the time, energy or ability to do the job the way we'd like to – and remember, you're going to be looking at those walls for a long time to come, so it's important that the job is done right.
Why should I hire a professional?
Leaving it to the pros can be greatly beneficial for a number of reasons.
Obviously, it will save you the time and energy of doing it yourself, but painting can be dangerous, when it involves roofs, ceilings or ladders, so leaving it to someone with the correct training and expertise for the job can be a lot safer.
Painters also come with all of their own tools – physical and mental. They will bring their own brushes, rollers, preparation and clean up equipment, as well as having the knowledge required to easily sort out problem areas.
Where can I find someone I can trust?
Resene offers a free Find-A-Painter service, which will help you to track down a reliable professional painter.
A maximum of three tradespeople will receive your job details and will get in contact with you to arrange a quote. We recommend taking the time to meet all three so you can get a good idea of who will best meet your needs and do it for a good price.
Check out our tips for things you should consider when deciding which painter to choose and making sure you have everything you need sorted before the job starts.
