Swav Painting & Decorating

Painters & Decorators

27 June 2020

“I hired Swav to repaint the entire exterior of my house. The job was done quickly and without delay as I had to move in to the new house in a few days and he did an excellent job on the house. He also did a few touch ups inside the house as well and the work done was great.”

Deco-Furbish Painters and Decorators

Painters & Decorators

22 November 2016

“We live in an estate in the mountains where the houses get dirty and covered with moss very quickly. Basically the houses have to be power washed every 2 years. We wanted to have our house painted and we had heard of the self cleaning paint. After some research on Google, I contacted Deco-furnish. A couple of days later, Joseph came to assess our house and we received the quote the following day. Everything was included, from the power wash of the house to the treatment of the walls and the painting of the house. We did not really know which color to choose but Marion and Joseph were very helpful and gave us good advice. Everything was made really easy for us, they are very professional and reliable. The work has been completed quickly and to a very high standard. Before the all process started we were just looking to have our house painted with self cleaning paint but the end result is just brilliant and exceeded our expectations: the cracks in the wall have been repaired, the painting has been done to very high standards. We know that with the self cleaning paint there will be no need to have our house power washed for many years to come. If you are looking for a job well done and peace of mind, contact Deco Furbish, you will be satisfied.”

Fran Murphy painting and decorating

Painters & Decorators

10 April 2017

“I recently used the services of Fran Murphy Painting & Decorating to redecorate the sitting room and kitchen of my apartment. This required the ceilings to be painted, a decision on new paint colours and also as a new kitchen had recently been installed some minor restorative work was required. From the very beginning Fran was very approachable and professional. He gave some good advice, provided me with a quote and gave me time to make a decision. I contacted Fran to confirm that I would like to go ahead with the decorating. He provided me with a starting date, time and duration and didn't deviate from this. Fran completed the work and did an excellent job. The apartment was left in a very good state . I personally would have no hesitation in recommending Fran to anybody wishing to have their house decorated. He is a trustworthy, amicable, helpful and likeable person and his work ethic and attention to detail is second to none. I wish him well in all his future endeavours and if I ever require painting to be done in my home I would use Fran Murphy Painting & Decoration without hesitation.”

What jobs do painters and decorators do?

As well as plain painting jobs, many painters and decorators will take on other jobs as well. If you’re dealing with an old or run-down property and you need the walls completely stripped down before painting, this could be tackled by a painter decorator. Some professionals will also carry out repairs on paint work and walls, from small cracks and holes to sometimes larger repairs like fixing window panes, doorframes and sills. Some painters and decorators may specialise in certain kinds of painting, such as window exteriors, doors, gates and fences. And finally, you may find some contractors are very good at the finishing touches, not only neatly finishing paint work but also installing beautiful wallpaper, wall stickers, painting intricate or fiddly features or even painting patterns and murals on your walls.

Why should I hire a painter and decorator rather than doing it myself?

Even if you are planning on going very simple with your walls, perhaps a crisp white or grey, then using painters and decorators to finish the job to a high standard is still advisable. Not only will it mean your painted walls will be clean and precise, but it will also save you the time and effort of painting and decorating yourself. House painters will be quick and efficient at painting your rooms, and if you have a tricky outside wall or space that needs painting, specialist exterior painters are the professionals for the job.

Search for painters and decorators on Houzz to see past painting and decorating projects and reviews from clients to see if there’s a professional that can help you with your project. Even if a local painter decorator doesn’t specialise in your kind of project, ask them first, and they may know other professionals that can help, such as wallpaper specialists, paint companies or wall sticker or mural installers.

Questions to ask potential painters and decorators:

How long have you been a painter and decorator?
How many projects like mine have you completed?
Can I see examples of your previous projects?
Do you work alone or employ others?
Can you install wallpaper as well as paint?
Do you provide the supplies? Or do I need to choose a specific paint beforehand?
Can you provide me with references?
Can you give me a written estimate?
When will you carry out the job and how long will it take?
What happens if the costs end up exceeding my budget?
Will you prepare the walls for paint or wallpaper, e.g. stripping and priming?
Do you offer repairs or retouches of paint, wallpaper and walls?
Should I do anything to protect or look after my walls once treated?
