Surface Preparation
Before wall painting, the wall surfaces must be prepared. The first step is to clean them so that the walls are non-sticky and dry. Some parts of the surface may not be completely flawless, but don’t worry, we’ll take care of these defects before painting and decorating.
We use patches and putty for these repairs to achieve a mirror-smooth finish. The walls still need to be sanded, as wall painting would not be attractive on uneven surfaces. This step involves a lot of dust and dirt, but it is essential to achieve a perfect result.
Deep priming is also an essential step in wall painting. In this phase, primers prevent the walls from absorbing moisture. They contain anti-fungal and anti-mould agents, which protect the surface. To achieve the desired result, we apply the primer in one layer.
Finally, the long-awaited surface can be painted with the colours and combinations that you chose! Interior and exterior paint is applied in a minimum of two coats. The drying time is up to three hours.
Paint Removal and Restoration
There are different ways to remove old paint from a wall. The method used depends on the durability of the paint. Our technicians will wash the wall with soap and water, and then they may sand the wall to remove the paint. A scraper is then used to peel the paint.
In cases where the paint is very old, and its removal is more difficult, a special product is applied and left on the wall. Sometimes, such methods are not necessary, especially when your wall is white, and you want to paint it a brighter or darker colour. However, it is possible to make some restorations as needed.
One of the biggest problems that most properties in Ireland face is the cracks of the paint on the walls due to moisture rising from the outside. But don’t worry; at IVCG, we offer wall restoration and old paint removal services to help you repair the damaged wall and restore it.
Our professionals start with identifying and fixing any moisture problems to prevent the issue from recurring. The best time to do this is in spring because the Irish weather is not humid. Otherwise, an electric radiator is placed next to the wet wall.
If the grooves are deep, a specialist will apply a plaster after sanding. For smaller cracks using a putty is enough. After the surface has dried well, it will be scraped and smoothed with sandpaper. Sometimes another layer of putty is required.
