Hiring a professional when it comes to painting and decorating your beloved home or establishment can come at a cost but there are many reasons why you should you should never cut corners on price and always hire a professional painter and decorator Swansea. Below we highlight some reasons why this is so important.

1. Safety First

Premier Painters and decorators Swansea have premium and industrial-grade equipment to do the job. By law, they have to keep maintenance logs of any equipment used – like ladders, etc – and the condition they are in. This ensures safety for the painters and decorators and any person around their workspace. Unlicensed and unqualified painting and decorating services on the other hand supply their own equipment and maintenance logs aren’t guaranteed since low-grade painters and decorators tend to be self-employed. All our Swansea Painters, keep accurate records of equipment maintenance and do thorough checks before each job and during the work being carried out. This minimizes the occurrence of accidents or injuries. We also know the importance of safety signs and use them accordingly.

2. Preparation

Priming surfaces for decorating is essential to a job well done. Before any painting or decorating job is carried out, we thoroughly inspect the job for any rough surfaces, holes and other issues that may impact the finished quality. We know this and set aside time to go over each surface carefully before cracking the lids off the paint cans. Less qualified painters and decorators sometimes tend to skip this part and slap paint to the walls to get the job done as quickly as possible. We know just how important it is to set up and prime the site before the actual work begins. If you want a good finish you have to start like you mean to go on and that means preparation is key.

3. Insurance

Our painter and decorator Swansea services can absolutely guarantee you that all our painters and decorators are insured. This means a lot to us as accidents and injuries do sometimes occur and while we make 110% effort to minimize them, not all decorating services do. What’s more, not all decorating services are insured and that’s going to cause a lot of problems in the case of accidents, injuries or damages to the site. We also make sure our painters have the right insurance for the job. This is going to give you peace of mind, especially if you hired a low grade decorating service and the job went wrong.

4. Paint

Professionals know their paint. Low grade decorating services lack an intimate knowledge of them through either lack of research or experience. Our Swansea Painters have neither a lack of knowledge or experience. Each surface is unique and requires certain paint types for its usage (external or internal, kitchen or bathroom). If a painter is tackling a busy, greasy kitchen, the last thing they are going to do is use is a paint that isn’t grease resistant, leaving behind horrible grease stains that spoil the finish. Professionals know what room and surface need a particular type of paint while you run the risk of a low grade decorating service not knowing that.

5. Time

A professional painter and decorator Swansea knows just how long it will take to complete a job. Not only that but they also know how much paint they are going to need and how many coats a surface is going to require. You risk not getting that with low grade decorating services. This means professional painters and decorators, like us, can give you a sound timeframe for the job to be done. There’s nothing worse for a client than dealing with under-prepared, short stocked decorating services that make a job run well past its due date or be littered with disruptions during.

The type of painter you work with will, indeed, determine the results you get. This is why you should always make sure that you hire professional painters who have a proven track record in delivering excellent services in their line of work. The fact that there are numerous decorators makes it harder to pick one by increasing the amount of time and effort you have to take to compare them. However, with the right guidelines, you can easily locate a great painting service provider near you.

1. Define Your Needs

The first step when looking for an ideal service provider is determining whether they will be able to fulfill your needs. This means knowing what those needs are. Start by checking what needs to be painted and where you want to be painted. Write them down and try to be as specific as possible because that will help you find the right painters as well as an accurate budget estimation.

2. Search Online

All businesses have an online presence nowadays, and that makes it easier for you to find suitable decorators online. The online platform will make your search easier, but you still have to be cautious. Make sure you search according to your location, and you vet them thoroughly.

3. Look for the Qualities

All the good painters and decorators Swansea have like Premier Painters and Decorators Swansea will have accreditations to back them up and show that they are genuine. Make sure the service providers have a good reputation as well as other qualities like excellent communication skills and the ability to customize services to suit the needs of each client differently.

4. Check Reviews

Part of doing a background check is looking for reviews that have been posted by other customers. Be specific and look for what previous clients have to say. Be careful with any painter that only has good reviews or a lot of bad reviews but expect a good one to have a few bad reviews with many good ones.

5. Compare Several Options

The best way to get the best deal is by not hiring the first decorators and painters you come across. You have to take your time to compare several companies before settling on one with the best price. Remember that the price has to match the quality of work they do. Make sure they can still give you the best paintwork even with the cheaper rates before you sign a contract with them.

6. Conduct Physical Interviews

Let the service provider come to the place so that they can also make their assessments. This will allow them to come up with a timeline for the job and also estimate other additional costs that are most likely to arise. Prepare your questions and let them know about any specific requests you may have, such as any specific paint brand you would prefer.

7. Trust Your Judgment

Always trust your instincts when hiring a service provider. If you feel that you’re not connecting with them as well as you would like, then let them go. Don’t hire someone you’re uncomfortable with because that will make the job more awkward.

With so many painting and decorating contractors out there pushing and promoting their services both on-line and off-line it can often be nightmare trying to pick the right contractor for your job.
