Bathroom refurbished - Bathroom fitting job in Grove Park

“Tiling poor, grout and mastic everywhere broke my bath skirting cut too short no mitred joints. Floor laid with huge bits missing from corner planks. Left tile spacers in then grouted tiles No carpentry skills don't be fooled by the price you will pay double to rectify his work.”

Hi, when your starting to paint a room preparation is the first step.
fill any uneven surfaces using a easy sanding filler like - tetron or easy fill. (two part wood filler for any timber work)!!
there the best in my opinion.
the next step is to use decorating caulk for any corners, gaps around door frames, gape on skirting boards etc.
once this is dry you can then sand down the filler and the rest of the walls.
now you can start to apply your first coat of paint to the ceiling and walls, once the first coat is dry (usually 3/4 hours depending on room temperature)
you can then double check for any more filling that may need another fill!
once this is complete you can then undercoat your woodwork.
sand down the walls (spotting off any filler marks with a dab of colour) and woodwork again then apply your top coat to the walls once there dry finish off the woodwork.
You need to score the wood chip with a scraper then heat an electric steamer hold in position of where your removing the wallpaper for around 20 seconds and start to remove.
