Would you spend a lot of money on expensive paints or wallpapers to use them over old, tired, scratched and uneven walls or ceilings? Would you buy expensive Italian or Spanish handmade bathroom tiles or kitchen tiles to cover with them old, loosen, blown plaster or unlevelled walls? Of course, the only answer is no. You would not.  You would like all substrates to be perfectly prepared for any type of covering. Flat, straight, even, free of mold and flaking paint walls and ceilings give painter and decorator a chance to offer you best possible finish. They give tiller an opportunity to finish his job to a higher standard and within a shorter time when floors and walls are perfectly prepared.

How to achieve that perfect finish then? What sort of materials or techniques shall be used to make your project better? Which solution is cost effective? Which one is long lasting?

Every painting and decorating job or project is build with a proportion of 70% of preparation and 30% of painting and decorating. Preparation is a key! 

Typically when walls and ceilings are not drastically damaged, painters and decorators simply fill up or patch imperfections in places, then once filler is dry painters and decorators smooth the walls with fine grade sand paper. Painters and decorators at Cotswold Home Makeovers use electric, orbital sanders and extract dust straight away to save time consuming cleaning and also to keep your house clean and tidy as much as possible, so you don’t have to arrange for general cleaning after painting and decorating job is complete.  There is also one more such important factor worth to mention. As you pay for our time spent on your project, the less time painters and decorators spend on cleaning, the more of your budget stays in your pocket.
