Painting is definitely a diy do-able. You would have to do the clearing the room prep for a professional and that’s the hard bit! Once you have everything piled in the centre and covered (plastic dust sheets from any DIY store, or old sheets) then wash the walls down with sugar soap, fill any dents/holes with polyfilla type thing, and paint away - buy good brushes and don't load the brush to the drippy point. I haven't tried a 'paint-runner' type applicator - has anyone here got recommends. I like a paint roller, DH hates them. For the saving you will make DIY, try both! |
