a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered. Agree suitable light preparation and a local paint area; consider a bounded wall section where a small spot would remain conspicuous.
Signs: the surface is scuffed, patchy, weathered or no longer presents evenly or a local repair or prior coating needs preparation before a new finish is considered. Causes: normal use, weather exposure or aged coating or incompatible or unknown prior finishes that need checking.
Furniture, curtains and floor edges need room for suitable protection. Explain what can be moved before the appointment and anything fragile nearby. Preparation time depends on access as well as the size of the visible mark, especially in occupied rooms.
Sometimes extending the coating to a natural edge gives a more consistent result than repeated spot work. Any additional area needs agreement in the quote. A small wall-section repaint does not imply that a whole room or house is included.
The agreed service covers sound interior walls, light preparation, agreed local coating and colour-match assessment. Exclusions: Whole-house repainting, external facades, unresolved damp, lead/asbestos disturbance, structural patch work.
