A Special Message about COVID-19 from Steve & Martin, your local neighbourhood Painting & Decorating experts.

The safety and well-being of customers is our priority and we’d like to let you know about the protective measures we are taking during these challenging times.

• We intend to keep our business open and will be operating as usual during this vital period of social distancing.

• We have been briefed on the symptoms of COVID-19, and everybody who works with us is under strict instructions to stay at home at the first sign of any respiratory illness or fever.

• We will wash our hands thoroughly before and after visiting anyone’s home. We will also wear a new pair of disposable gloves for the entire visit.

• We accept contactless payments.

• We have not recently travelled overseas or knowingly had contact with an infected person. In the unlikely event of exposure, we will obviously stay home and self-isolate in line with the latest government rules.

• For the time being, we will have to respectfully decline appointments to homes where anyone is self-isolating.

The team at Smart Choice Painting Services wishes you and your loved ones the very best of health. We’re all in this together, and together we’ll get through it.

What’s involved with painting your home?

Good preparation is the key to an excellent paint finish. Steve and Martin understand that time invested in this first step will mean your surfaces look better for longer than a short-cut paint job where problems can appear after a very short period.

A professional paint job involves several key steps:

1. Preparation
2. Filling
3. Sanding
4. Undercoat
5. Top Coats

Premium quality paint every time

If you get a very cheap quote from a painter and decorator, check the quality of the paint that’s included. You might think there’s not much difference between all the different paints on offer, but the difference between a premium paint and a low quality paint once it’s on your walls is huge. Quality paint has more pigment and resin meaning it will stay looking good for longer and this is why Steve and Martin use high quality paints in every job they do.

How often should you repaint your home?

Steve and Martin recommend repainting your home every 3-5 years for living areas and every 5-7 years on the outside, depending on the elements. If you leave it too long, the paint deteriorates and it will cost a lot more to bring your home back to its original glory.

Preparing your home for sale

Real Estate agents agree that one of the most cost-effective ways to improve the look and value of your home is a fresh coat of paint. Painting in neutral, modern colours will instantly update your home, giving potential buyers the blank canvas that they are all looking for. You might also consider painting the outside of your home. Boosting your home’s ‘kerb appeal’ means potential buyers will venture inside, rather than driving straight past.
