One of the most common questions people have is not the colour choic but whether it should be oil or water-based and, which is best?

This all depends on some qualities of these types of painting material, water-based paints dry   quicker and you can wash your brushes with water; they’re also more pleasant to use and have less odour. Oil-based paints on the other hand create strong fumes which take some time to clear, take a long time to dry and cleaning brushes out afterwards is a real pain.

Oil-based paints can achieve a higher sheen level when applied because of the makeup of the paint; however, the sheen does become duller with time. While water-based paints achieve a lower sheen finish, water-based paints can maintain this sheen level for a longer time.

Water-based paints make life easier for everyone—it is made up of lower volatile organic compound content (and less smelly fumes), has a faster drying time, and better resist’s discoloration from sunlight. Fortunately, with the proper approach, you can successfully use water-based paint over oil-based paint. Ahead, you’ll find pointers for using whatever paint products you like over oil-based paint.

Based on all this information, water-based paints should be the obvious choice.

Wall washing and preparation–2 days

Wall washing and cleaning prepare your property for a fresh layer of paint. It involves removing any dirt, mildew, and loose paint, by pressure washing and sanding. This process usually just takes a day or two depending on the size of your property.

The time it takes to prepare a building to be painted varies from one property to the other. However, on average a whole day is dedicated to protecting portions that are not to be painted, priming and preparation of the surface.

Customers are always keen on knowing what painting or repainting their property costs. However, the cost of repainting a room depends on certain properties of the room such as:

1. dimensions of the room and height of its ceiling
2. style of the building—properties can have a modern, Victorian, or art-deco look-
3. surfaces to be painted–different surfaces require different quantities of paint; ceilings, brick walls, woodwork all need a different quantity of paint-
4. current colour schemes and combinations
5. new colour scheme
6. current condition of the building – older or unmaintained buildings with old layers of the painting are a lot more difficult to paint compared to newly made unpainted properties or even properties that have been recently painted.

We also consider other parts of a room such as woodwork on the doors and windows when repainting a property. Their number, style and size are put into consideration when repainting a building.

To provide an accurate cost of repainting, we need to inspect the room or property. However, we can provide a rough estimate through the measurements and photos you provide.

One of the best ways to freshen up your home, increase curb appeal, and even add value, is a fresh coat of paint. Adding a fresh coat of paint to both the interior and exterior of your home makes everything look clean and new, and can breathe new life into spaces that felt tired or outdated.

The thing is, repainting the interior of your home can be time-consuming, and for the exterior, it isn’t an inexpensive job. That’s why it’s especially important to extend the life of your interior and exterior paint as long as possible.

If you’re wondering how long an actual paint job can last, the answer, again, is around 10 years. This, of course, is assuming that the paint job is of Mackay Pro quality and using our high-quality paints. Otherwise, you may need a new paint job sooner rather than later. You can expect your exterior paint to last between 5 to 7 years. Keep in mind that regional climate conditions will affect your exterior paint, the material painted, and the type of paint used are also factors to be considered. If there’s heavy traffic in your home, pets, kids or frequent parties, your paint job may age faster.

• You will have to book an appointment with us on site so we can meet-up, listen to your requirements and examine the site.
• We will go through all the walls that need to be painted and see if there are previous issues that will need fixations.

• Once we have met, we will prepare a detailed quotation of all the things we will be doing at your home and send it via email for you to check.

There is not much to do for you before we begin painting. But we do recommend washing your surfaces and making them free of any molds.

Also, we would also advise you to move your furniture accordingly so that we don’t have to spend time moving the pieces and can get to work as soon as we get to the site.

It depends on the finish you opt for. But, we ensure the quality we use is topnotch. It will last up 2-5 years at minimum.

When deciding quantity, we make sure we do not go overboard and only use as little paint as possible so there are no leftovers. However, in case there is leftover paint, it may be left to you the client to use for patch ups or worst case we give it to our supplier who then recycles it.
