Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to paint a room?
A standard room takes 1-2 days including preparation. Larger rooms, poor condition walls, or multiple coats can take longer. Professionals work faster and cleaner than DIY.
Should I supply the paint or does the painter?
Either works. Many painters prefer to supply paint as they get trade discounts and know which brands perform best. If you supply paint, ensure you buy enough — painters can advise on quantity.
Do I need to move furniture?
Professional painters will move furniture to the centre of the room and cover it. However, removing small items and valuables beforehand is helpful and speeds up the job.
How often should I repaint my house exterior?
In Ireland's climate, exterior paint typically lasts 5-10 years. South and west-facing walls weather faster. Quality paint and proper preparation extend the lifespan significantly.
