So here’s why you’ll get better results by hiring a dedicated painter:
Sash window fitters are not trained painters.
While sash window fitters are experts at repairing, restoring, and refurbishing Victorian sash windows, painting is a specialised skill that requires a different set of techniques and experience.
Professional painters have spent years honing their craft and know the best methods for achieving a high-quality, long-lasting painted finish on wooden sash windows.
Some sash window companies cut corners on painting:
To keep costs down, some sash window companies will do a quick, basic paint job themselves rather than bringing in a professional painter. This often results in a poor finish that doesn’t do justice to the refurbished windows.
Proper paint preparation is key:
Preparing the wood surface properly before painting is crucial for getting great results that last. Professional painters know how to properly sand, clean, and prime the sash windows to ensure the new paint adheres well and looks its best.
Professional painters take the time to carefully paint all the intricate details of sash windows, including the mouldings, sashes, and box frames.
This level of detailed workmanship is hard to achieve for someone who isn’t a trained painter.
By hiring a dedicated professional painter after your sash windows have been refurbished & draught proofed, you can rest assured your windows will be beautifully finished and protected for years to come.
The investment is well worth it to get a superior paint job that completes the transformation of your period sash windows.
