Painters and Decorators Doncaster understand that stains on interior walls and ceilings can really compromise the look of your property. Stains can come in all shapes and sizes with many causes, including nicotine from cigarettes, greasy hands and water ingress to name a few. For inexperienced property owners, stains can be a real challenge and difficult to cover. When walls are stained or filthy, paint may struggle to stick. With a rigorous scrub-down using potent cleansers like trisodium phosphate) TSP even the most stubborn stain will be conquered, paving the way for a flawless and vibrant finish. If you do have unsightly stains on your walls or ceilings, our painters and decorators in Manchester recommend first solve some additional troubles! Mold may be stealthily growing and threatening your health, even if your walls aren't damp. Eliminate tiny mold colonies using chlorine bleach, but be cautious - if in doubt call for a professional mold inspection. Conquer any mold before applying any stain sealant and top coats. Some stains can be a real eyesore and a challenge to cover! To effectively combat them, look for specialty paints and primers that provide dense coverage, examples include "Cover Stain" or "Damp Seal" ensuring those pesky stains won't lurk beneath the new paint layers. For smaller stains, multiple applications of standard primer and paint might just do the trick. But be prepared for some flaking when painting over water stains. To achieve a smooth result on non-textured surfaces, brush away any loose debris and reapply plaster if needed prior to repainting.
