Interior Trim Painting
small recoating jobs on sound painted skirting and architraves
Service overview
A loose board or crumbling edge should not be hidden beneath another coat. Show splits, movement and moisture damage separately. Suitable trim repair may be discussed through the relevant repair service before any finishing work is planned.
An existing glossy coating may require different preparation from a matt surface. Tell Fix Nik what product was used if known. A compatible coating system and finish should be agreed before buying materials solely to match an old colour label.
Mark which runs and door surrounds are included rather than describing the whole room as trim work. Profiles, corners and access can affect preparation. An approximate length and photographs help distinguish a small refresh from a larger renovation repaint.
The agreed service covers small interior trim preparation and recoating after substrate suitability review. Exclusions: Structural timber repair, hazardous coating removal, external window restoration, large renovation repaint.
Common situations
Carpet, hard flooring and adjacent walls need appropriate protection while low trim is prepared. Explain whether furniture can be moved away from the edges. Tight access may require more preparation than the visible length of skirting initially suggests.
Painting to a natural break may provide a clearer finish boundary than touching up several scattered spots. Whether that is useful depends on condition and matching expectations. Any extension of the paint area should be agreed before work begins.
Grooves and moulded corners can retain loose paint or dirt that affects adhesion. The profile should be visible in the enquiry photos. Preparation must stay within suitable non-hazardous methods and does not imply stripping unknown old coatings.
Heath Hill property context
Heath Hill sits within the existing Greater Melbourne coverage. For interior trim painting, measurements, product information and access details are more useful than assumptions about the suburb's buildings. The underlying trim must be sound. Loose, split or deteriorated timber needs repair assessment before cosmetic recoating. For a Heath Hill quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
