What’s included

What it usually covers

Preparation is the part of the job you never see and always notice. Filled cracks, sanded edges and the right primer are the difference between a wall that looks new and one that just looks painted.

  • Filling cracks, holes and dents
  • Sanding woodwork and walls
  • Priming new plaster and bare wood
  • Sealing stains and new plaster
  • Repairs after other trades

Preparation

How it’s prepared

Every surface is checked before the job is priced, so the price covers the preparation the job actually needs.

  1. Check every surface
  2. Fill, sand and prime
  3. Ready for the finish

In Stoke-on-Trent

Older houses can have blown plaster, old damp stains and lead in early paint layers on woodwork. Each needs the right preparation, not just a fresh coat on top.

Questions

Good to know

Is preparation included in the price?

The preparation a surface needs is assessed before pricing, so it is part of the job rather than an extra found later.

I have new plaster. When can it be painted?

Fresh plaster needs to dry fully first. Tell Blade when it was done and he’ll advise.
