Painters and decorators in Johnstone

Johnstone is a mix of tenements near the centre, post-war houses and newer estates. The work is usually a room refresh, a hall and stairs, or a whole house before a move.

Decorating in Johnstone

Homes built or altered before 2000 can have textured ceiling coatings. Before any sanding or scraping we ask what is known about them, because some contain asbestos and those are not disturbed.

What we do

Inside and out

01

Interior painting

Rooms, halls, stairs and landings painted, from one feature wall to the whole flat.

02

Doors, frames & skirting

Woodwork takes the knocks in a home, so it needs proper preparation: cleaned down, sanded, filled and caulked, primed where it is bare, then finished in a water-based satin..

03

Wallpaper

Old paper comes off by wetting the backing and scraping at a low angle; then the adhesive is washed off and the wall left to dry.

04

Repairs before paint

Hairline cracks, nail holes, failed plasterboard joints, holes in board and loose plaster are repaired before decorating, each by the method that suits it.

05

Kitchen cabinets

A kitchen can be changed without being replaced.

06

Outside

Outside work is planned around the weather.
