Different Types of Painter and Decorator
There are many different types of painter and decorator that all fall under the professional painter banner. As such, it can be difficult to understand exactly which one you require. In this article I will try to explain the difference between these and the best one to use for any particular project.
First up we have the painting contractor. A painting contractor differs from a general painter and decorator in that they tend to specialise in larger commercial projects, where producing large volumes of work in a short space of time is paramount. For example, if you have a factory that requires painting, then a painting contractor should be your first port of call, as they will be able to paint whatever requires painting in a timely fashion, thus negating the need to cause any more disruption for any length of time, other than is absolutely necessary.
The next professional in the list is the specialist coatings painter. Specialist coatings can range from anything from a rubberised floor paint to machine enamel to anti-graffiti coatings. Quite often, specialist equipment may need to be worn while using specialist coatings, such as breathing masks or apparatus, gloves, safety glasses and sometimes even full body detection suits to ensure the paint applicators safety.
Then we have a fire coatings painter. A fire coatings painter will use a wide variety of different fire retardant coatings, with the most popular fire retardant coating being nullifier paint. These paints are designed to withstand a very high amount of heat, thus keeping the structure underneath the coating as safe as possible for as long as possible. These paints have to be applied to a certain thickness, in numerous applications. After the layers have been applied, the depth of the paint must be checked to ensure that the correct depth of paint has been achieved; failure to do so could result in the coating not being able to protect the base materials in an adequate fashion, which could be catastrophic.
Last, but not least, we have the general painter and decorator. A general painter and decorator will usually be more customer focused and will, more often than not, place a much larger emphasis on quality rather than quantity. Sometimes a general painter and decorator will assume some of the roles mentioned above, as will the above sometimes assume the role of a general painter and decorator but they will always specialise in their own sector for the vast majority of the time.

Decorating Choices for Your Home
When it comes time to make decisions regarding what your home looks and feels like, hiring a professional painter and decorator may be the best choice for you. Having someone involved in the planning and execution of your vision will oftentimes lessen the stress of the job as well as make the entire thing more attainable as you start from scratch. A professional painting contractor will know the right tools to use and the right steps to take to ensure you get the results that you're looking for.
One of the main benefits of hiring a professional painting contractor is that they will have the necessary tools that are needed, and know how to fix any problems that might occur. Knowing how and taking the time to prepare the surfaces that are going to be updated is a vital step in redecorating any space, and a painter and decorator will have the knowledge to make sure that occurs.
The proper tools for cleaning, sanding and cutting in the areas that will be painted are things that should not be skimped on, and it will make the paint and painting techniques that you choose last longer and look better in the long run. Having the proper rollers, brushes and tape can make the job easier and quicker to complete with better results.
Access to foam brushes for smooth, sharp corners, as well as knowing the proper type of primer and paint to use make a job like this go much more smoothly and look professionally done. A professional painter and decorator will also have access to a paint gun or spray gun, which gives the paint a fine, smooth appearance as well as speeding up the job so that it's accomplished in much less time.
Knowing the tools of the trade and being able to carry out the job at hand in an efficient manner are two of the qualifications to look for in a professional painting contractor. Having the appropriate equipment and a good reputation and portfolio of finished work as a painter and contractor will make the choice easy. Good communication and a little research on your part will make the job of choosing someone to help carry out your vision an easier task, and you'll be pleased with the results at the end. Try something new on your walls this time, and hire a professional to help you carry it out.

Comparing Quotes From Painters
Painting your house is the most cost-effective remodeling you can do, and it's a great time to consider doing so now.
When you get quotes from a number of painters, consider these factors when you choose among them:
Make sure the quotation clearly outlines what areas are being painted, the preparation process, and the materials to be used, and gives a firm price for the work. While issues can be discovered after work begins that may affect the price, the initial quote should give a reasonably confident price for the work, and a good amount of detail on all the steps of the process.
Make sure that preparation of the surface to be painted is taken seriously. With poor preparation, painting will not give lasting good results.
The quotes should all list the type of paint to be used, and the number of coats to be given. If one firm intends to use a lower quality paint that another, or to use fewer coats, then the numbers will not be comparable.
In looking at the materials to be used, make sure that specific brands are given. "Paint" just doesn't give you enough information.
While there are many factors that can affect price -- differences in overhead, for example, or seasonal variations -- the truth is that a very low price can often be a warning of poor workmanship or cutting corners. A job as big and as visible as housepainting is not the place for false economy.
Don't even consider a painter who doesn't have the proper licensing and insurance. In Australia, look for painters with Master Painter certification. Your painter must have public liability insurance and be registered with the Department of Fair Trading. By law, customer and contractor must enter into a written contract with contractors being required to also provide warranty insurance for work over $12,000 - your job will have OH&S obligations and may also have EPA implications which need to be discussed with the painter and/or respective state government department. Non-compliance will jeopardise your rectification rights.

Choosing the Right Painter and Decorator
Choosing a good tradesman can be a daunting task, especially when the tradesman you are choosing is what is classed as a finishing trade. It's not difficult to become anxious when you hear all the horror stories shown on the television or printed in the newspapers, and we all know there are many many scare stories out there. In this article I will attempt to offer an insight into good practices when choosing a painter and decorator.
A good painter and decorator will be happy to advise you on all the latest products and finishes, as well as all the latest trends and fashions regarding painting and decorating. He or she should also be happy to offer you references from people they have done work for previously. These references can come in many different forms. For example most companies, however small, will tend to have some sort of website, this is always a good place to look at a painter and decorators past work and there is also a strong likelihood that you will be able to view some of your chosen decorators work, be it in photo form or maybe even video form. If you're chosen painter and decorator does not have a website, they may have other places you can check for testimonials, such as online directories and review sites. Another good method of choosing a quality painting and decorating contractor is word of mouth. If you ask around, maybe your family and friends, or maybe even work colleagues, you can, more often than not, find somebody who has used a painter and decorator in the past.
A professional painter and decorator, as with any tradesman, should be fully insured to work at your house or place of business. Don't be afraid to ask for proof of insurance, this can save a lot of hassle in the future should things not go according to plan and there is a good chance that you will not be the first customer to have asked for this type of proof. If the painting and decorating contractor cannot, or will not show you proof if insurance then it maybe an early indication that they may not be fully insured to work at your house or place of work and they should be treated with caution.
Please remember that the vast majority of tradesmen out there are honest, hardworking people and if you follow the advice presented to you in this article, you should find a quality tradesman in no time at all.

Choosing Good Painters and Decorators
Considering some painting jobs, maybe a room in your home? Well, should you prefer a good painting job done, it is incredibly critical to find a company which offers this particular service. Although you can perform it yourself, irrespective of how 'talented' you happen to be, there is no way in which you'll be able to complete the job in the same way that a dedicated interior painting decorating company would. In this article, we will share a few recommendations to find a good company to do painting jobs at your house (or multiple rooms, if you are this way inclined)
• Reviews, reviews, plus more reviews: I am going to be truthful with you here. Almost all interior painting specialists on the market don't seem to be really that good. Sadly, some people believe it's really industry where you ought of do nothing but get your hands on a brush and you are done. For interior painting It isn't. You'll need skill. When you're looking for a company to begin painting an area, you should examine various reviews on line. Read both bad and good reviews. This would provide you a pretty decent understanding of who may be worth dealing with and who is not worth your time and efforts.
• Meet the painter: It is never suggested that you just hire somebody before you meet them. As with most trades, the first impression is absolutely everything. You're going to need to speak with the individual to learn more with regards to their personality. This should not just give you an idea about how reliable they are, but in addition provide you a great idea about whether you are likely to be capable of working with each other or not. In addition to this, this chat should ask if they have insurance cover in place. If they do not, you are going to need to run a mile!
• Price: for most painting jobs, this is not going being much of an issue. You're going to want to consider what you're getting for your money though. For example; you need to find out whether you will need to buy the paint separately, whether any additional charges may pop up etc. If a painter comes around to give you a quotation for the room, the latter scenario is not very likely to occur! Should you need to purchase the paint straight from the painter, then you're going to need to check whether you are actually getting good value for money with it i.e. make certain they are not charging you a lot for something you can buy pretty cheap elsewhere for your own painting jobs.
• If you prefer the painter that you hire, and make sure that you recommend them to your family and friends! Painters depend upon recommendations advertising and you are going to be doing them a wonderful favour. If you don't like the work that they have carried out then it's important that you mention it to them. This way they can correct any errors. Remember; everyone is human. Everyone makes a few mistakes sometimes. An honest painter will correct them.

Choosing Colours When Painting and Decorating
Painting a new room or painting over an old wall colour can be an exciting event; after all, you'll be completely changing the dynamic of the room. However, many people worry about the wall colour when painting and decorating and aren't exactly sure how to go about choosing it. Before hiring painters and decorators take a look at the below tips on how to choose a wall colour. When it comes time for the painting contractors to paint the room, you'll be happy knowing the colour is exactly the one you want.
Paint Chips
The first step to painting and decorating a new room is to start gathering up paint chips. Your local paint or hardware store will have a huge variety to choose from. Pick colours that you not only love, but that you'll be able to match with a wide variety of items in the room (i.e. curtains, furniture, rugs, etc.). If you're hiring professional painters and decorators, they'll be able to help you out here.
Plan a Color Palette
For the most part, when painting and decorating a new room you're not going to have one colour throughout. A color palette is essentially all of the colours that will make up the room including the walls, ceiling and accessories. Professional painters and decorators are experts at putting together a colour palette that flows well; however, there are also a number of websites that have pre-created colour palettes for you to choose from.
Try It Out
Before you have painting contractors come to paint your room, purchase a small can of it and paint a little on the wall. As any painting and decorating expert will agree, paint often looks different depending on what room it's in due to a variety of factors such as natural light and the other colours in the room.
Find Inspiration
Painters and decorators often find inspiration from things in nature or things they love. When deciding on what colour to have painting contractors paint your room or home look for inspiration in places such as paintings, pictures or scenery outside your home. With the ability to color match any colour, the possibilities are endless.
Personality
Often when painting a room you want your personality to show through. For instance, if you're a bubbly and outgoing person choose fun colours such as orange, yellow, or green. This can be a great way to ensure once the painting contractors finish the job - you'll love the colour. After all, most of us love ourselves!
