Importance of Hiring Professional Painters
Paint removal is a time consuming and arduous task that requires attention to detail, knowledge of harmful materials, and proper equipment to ensure best practices. Hiring professional painters affords you peace of mind, knowing that paint removal will be done safely and efficiently. This allows the general contractor to focus resources and efforts on other aspects of the renovation project.
Preparing for Paint Removal
- Educate yourself on environmentally friendly paints. Investing in environmentally friendly materials saves your family in the long run – both in health expenses and paint longevity. There are a lot of options for environmentally friendly paints from Benjamin Moore paint colors. Also, looking for paints that have low VOC levels will help reduce risk. Contact one of the professionals at Bluenote Painting to find out more about environmentally friendly paints.
- Diagnose the problem and deal with it accordingly. Poor paint jobs definitely need to be removed rather than painted over – diagnosing the reason for the poor job is essential to the paint removal process. Hiring a professional painter to inspect the prior paint job will help in the removal and renovation process. Typically, walls weren’t prepared correctly or low-quality primers were used, and removal requires damage control, re-prepping and finally a smoother coat for finish. Removing poorly applied paint is important in preventing future peeling!
