Myths your customers believe
Posts that correct a myth earn trust. Your plan includes them, with your business name attached.
Myth. Two coats of paint fix any wall
Fact. Without fixing damp, filling cracks and priming, paint peels and patches return. Preparation decides the result.
Myth. Expensive paint means a better job
Fact. Surface preparation and application matter as much as the paint brand.
Myth. Shade cards show the exact colour
Fact. Light and wall size change how colours look. Test a patch on the wall before deciding.
Myth. Exterior painting can be done any time
Fact. Rain and humidity affect drying. Plan exteriors for dry weather.
How to get paint that lasts
- Fix damp and fill cracks first
- Apply primer on prepared walls
- Use the right number of finish coats
Questions your customers ask
How long does painting a flat take?
It depends on size, repairs needed and drying time. We give a schedule after inspecting.
Do you fix cracks and damp first?
Yes. We fill cracks, treat damp where possible and prime before painting. Major seepage may need waterproofing first.
Will you protect our furniture?
Yes, we cover furniture and floors and clean up after work.
Can you suggest colours?
Yes. We test sample patches on your walls so you can see them in your light.
Do you do texture and designer walls?
Yes, for feature walls in living rooms and bedrooms.
How is the quote calculated?
By area, paint type, number of coats and repair work, written in the quote.
