Painting / Decorating in Ivybridge

Interior painting can be an extremely cheap way to brighten up the interior of your house. Painting is sometimes performed as a DIY project, but expert painters and decorators can make sure a great finish and make sure that your redecorating will look its best for as long as possible.

 

 

You may devote more time to preparing to paint than actually painting. It is vital to clean and prepare all wall surfaces and ceilings before painting, in addition to to mask off any areas that shouldn't be painted over such as skirting, architrave, plug sockets and light switches. Protect home furniture and any carpets or flooring in the area with sheets to catch any splashes. If you're painting internally, use a primer coat as a base then multiple coats of paint, allowing each layer time to dry in between.

 

Interior painters and decorators can offer you lots of guidance about paint and help you choose the perfect colour palette for your internal spaces.

Ivybridge

Ivybridge is a small town and civil parish in the South Hams, in Devon, England. It sits about 9 miles (14.5 km) east of Plymouth. It is at the southern extremity of Dartmoor, a National Park of England and Wales and sits along the A38 'Devon Expressway' road. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 11851 individuals. Discussed in records as early as the 13th century, Ivybridge's early history is marked by its status as an important crossing-point over the River Erme on the Exeter-to-Plymouth route. In the 16th century, mills were developed making use of the River Erme's power. The parish of Saint John was formed in 1836, with Ivybridge becoming a civil parish in 1894. It emerged as a town in 1977. The early urbanisation and advancement of Ivybridge mainly coincided with the Industrial Revolution. When the South Devon Railway Company constructed its train route through Ivybridge in the 19th century, a paper mill was constructed together with it, which brought on an increase in housing nearby. The paper mill closed in the beginning of the 21st century, after being in operation for over 150 years in the town, and the structures are being converted to homes and shops. The shopping area is mainly along Fore Street, with some small shops and eateries located in the Glanvilles Mill shopping centre which is accessible from Fore Street. The shopping centre contains over 35 shops, which includes both local and national chain stores, in addition to eateries and cafés. Though sometimes cited as a dormitory town, numerous people work in the town itself, and farming continues to play an economic role for Ivybridge's hinterland. The region surrounding Ivybridge is almost entirely farmland. For all of your home refurbishments, make certain to find trustworthy experts in Ivybridge to make certain of quality.

FAQs

What sort of jobs will an interior painter and decorator carry out?

Interior painters and decorators will offer a wide range of services. These range from painting and wallpapering to other decorating jobs such as fitting skirting or architrave. Some painters and decorators will be trained to plaster as well, however, you should always ask them about this and not assume they will all be able to.

how much do painters and decorators charge?

How Much Do Painters And Decorators Charge?

If you’re thinking about painting your home or property, then one of the first things that crosses the mind is the amount charged by painter or decorators to carry out the project. However just like any other home improvement projects and as with most tradesmen, the amount charged by a painter and decorator largely varies from job to job depending on a plethora of factors. These factors include your location, the urgency at which you need the job done and whether or not a specialist equipment would be required.

For painters and decorators, one of the biggest influencing factors that determines the price to be charged is the size of the room. For instance, if you have a large room to be painted, it’s definitely going to cost you more than a smaller room. And same applies to multiple rooms when compared to single room. In other words, to get a more accurate cost estimate from your tradesman, you’ll need to have a good idea of the size of your room or rooms. So let’s take a closer look!

✓ Painting a mid-sized room. The question here is, how do you know if your room is medium sized? The room will have a size of about 3.5m by 5m or a room that can conveniently allow up to 6 to 8 people. The price range is between £240 to £410.

✓ Wallpapering a mid-sized room. This uses the logic as painting a mid-sized room but the price can differ due to difference in materials used. The price range here is between £204 to £420.

✓ Painting a large ceiling. Painting a ceiling is very similar to painting a wall but its not as straightforward and will consume more time. The price ranges from £286 to £5476.

How much for a painter to paint a room?

How Much For A Painter To Paint A Room?

If you’re looking to have your room painted, it’s only normal to get an idea of how much it’s going to cost so you can set a budget and start planning. As you would have expected, the cost of having a room painted is dependent on a wide array of influencing factors such as the size of your room, the type of paint to be used, your location and many more. As a result, providing a single and accurate answer to this question is almost impossible.

Generally, a regular 4 metres by 3 metres room will take just a couple of days to be fully painted including both the coving and woodwork. Outside London, most painters and decorators would charge within the range of £150 to £200 per day meaning that you’ll have a total labour cost within the range of £300 to £400. What’s more? You’d also have to consider the price of the paint to be used which is usually around £50. If you add all the costs together you’ll get an average cost of about £400 to £500.

Unfortunately, paint does not last an eternity. Therefore, there’ll come a time where you’d have to consider painting your room all over again. It may seem unwise to employ the services of a professional painter and decorator especially if you’re on a budget. However, in truth, calling in a professional can go a long way to save you time, stress and money. In other words, even if you’re worried about the cost, a professional painter is still your best bet in the long run as they know exactly what to do to ensure you derive maximum benefits from your painting project.

How long should I wait after plastering to paint my walls?

You should always wait until plaster is dry before painting. The time this will take varies depending on the room and property, but in general, it will take about a week. Your plasterer will tell you how long it is best to leave it before covering or painting their work.
