QUOTE(Minolta @ Oct 24 2023, 10:37 PM) How many colour combinations? I decided to proceed with the price. Pricey but the contractor works has been proven (by my friend) as neat, clean and good quality.How high ceiling? One coat or 2 coats? Painting light colour over darker colour might need additional coats. Painting door/doorframes/trims - using gloss, oil or water based, sanding in between? roller or spray on? Paint on straight or with touch up first (fill holes, sand off wavy skim)? A professional paint job is expensive. 80% of time is on preparation and " cutting" at the corners, especially if you have multiple colour combinations, glossy paint, oil based paint. Rolling on paint on flat ready wall is very fast. They also use proper protection during painting. If for rental prop one colour kautim type, just hire 2 banglas, pay them kongsikong RM100/day each, buy them the paint and cheapest roller/brush. 3 days, labour only rm600. But for the info, i have answered your questions as below: Color combination - only 1 color for wall&ceiling, different color for doors/doorsframes Ceiling height - living/dining 11.25ft, rooms 10.25 ft Coats - 2 coats but depends on condition if requires more than the contractor will do more coating Painting doors and doorframes - water based paint, use roller and brush, sanding if required In general, he will touch up first before painting the wall/ceiling |
