3 things to think about when choosing professional office painters

The importance of a properly painted office should never be understated. It can be easy to presume that no one would really notice a half-hearted paint job at your office, but the truth is that it does have an influence – however subtle – on the atmosphere of your workplace and how people perceive your business. If your office looks anything less than as good as it can be, clients and candidates alike may be deterred from associating themselves with your company.

So with the above in mind, what are some of the factors that you should consider when keeping an eye out for professional office painters in an area like Milton Keynes? 

  1. How experienced are they?

When we say ‘experienced’, we aren’t just referring to the number of years for which the company or individual painter may have been active, but also how seasoned they are in providing all manner of relevant services and using all manner of relevant painting techniques. Has the company that you are considering also painted a wide range of offices, both inside and outside?

All of the staff here at Professional Painters MK, for example, are fully vetted, having worked in numerous Government facilities and sensitive environments. This, paired with a high level of training and supervision, ensures minimal disruption while providing an extremely cost effective and professional paint job.

  1. Do they offer an out of hours service?

Offices tend to be hives of intense activity from 9am until 5pm each day, so it might make sense to seek out a company that takes pride in offering a complete out of hours service. Professional office painters – like those of Professional Painters MK – who can do the job throughout the night or at the weekends will serve your business’s goals by minimising disruption to your daily operations.

Choose Professional Painters MK, and prior to our out of hours work taking place, you will meet with a dedicated project manager, who will ensure that the entire project runs as smoothly as possible. As well as attending and overseeing the works, the project manager will be in regular contact during normal working hours to keep you informed of our team’s progress and discuss any particular requirements to fit in with your day-to-day business.

  1. What preparatory work do they undertake?

If you want your office to have the best possible finish, work should be undertaken to ensure the removal of any debris, dust, grease or loose paintwork presently on your workplace’s walls before the actual painting job begins. Genuinely professional office painters won’t overlook this vital process, whether it calls for some simple vacuuming or a more forceful method like sandblasting.

We could talk about all manner of other issues that may dictate your choice of professional office painters – such as their geographical closeness to your business, whether they can provide a free quote and whether they leave offices in a clean and tidy condition after finishing their work.

Turn to us for the painting and decorating of your stately home

Those who own and live in stately homes know that when it comes to such exclusive and desirable properties, many of the unusual painting and decorating rules simply do not apply.

It’s something that you should bear in mind when comparing painting and decorating companies in Milton Keynes. Which companies have the right expertise and experience in relation to such properties, including both internal and external work?

Which of those companies have the capacity and capability to undertake such work at several properties simultaneously, providing not only a dedicated project manager, but also a highly qualified painting foreman to organise and oversee all staff?

Oh, and which companies can also provide such a thorough service at a competitive price, having given you a quick and free quote?

We realise that stately homes are different

Anyone who has ever wandered around a stately home will realise that these homes are not just any old homes.

If you are one of them, you will have probably gained an instinctive sense of the painting and decorating conventions that help to give stately homes their appealing and distinctive aesthetic. These may include their use of deep and rich, but not garish colours, as well as the tendency towards voluminous curtains, ornate furniture and decorative objects.

Here at Professional Painters MK, we are unlike so many painting and decorating companies in Milton Keynes in that we recognise just how special stately homes are, and therefore just what special treatment they require.

Our approach is sensitive to the unique sensibility of stately home painting and decorating. It is a sensitivity that is apparent across a broad range of services, encompassing everything from general decorating, marble effects and dragging to graining, wallpapering and colour washes.

 We stand out among domestic painting and decorating companies in Milton Keynes

There are many reasons why you may enquire about the services of a domestic painting and decorating company in Milton Keynes. It is an obvious move to make when you are looking to revamp or spruce up your stately home for your own use, but you may also wish to have your property repainted and redecorated when you intend to put it on the market.

Whatever your reasons for investigating and comparing companies like ours, here at Professional Painters MK, we realise that your exact requirements are likely to be as unique as you and your home are.

Don’t trust any other company to provide fire protection coatings in MK

Fire safety has long been a pressing priority for business owners across Milton Keynes, although it has arguably never been more so than it is now.

Today, those running a company have a great legal, moral and financial duty to ensure that everyone using their commercial premises is as safe as can be reasonably assured, and our own fire protection coatings in MK can play a great role in this.

How can we help you to keep your building safe?

You might not imagine that a mere commercial painting service could do much to enhance the safety of your firm’s buildings, but the fire-resistant coatings that we can provide here at Professional Painters MK can make a much bigger difference than you think.

Many businesses in Milton Keynes and the surrounding areas that we serve – such as Bedford, Aylesbury and Luton – have plasterboard walls or ceilings that may not be compliant with current fire rating standards.

This is where a little thing known as intumescent painting can come in useful. This type of paint chars and swells up when exposed to fire, which creates an insulating coating that then protects any materials from the heat the fire generates.

If your company has lath and plaster or plasterboard walls that are then given a coating of intumescent paint, you can have confidence that even if a fire strikes, the integrity of these walls will be preserved. However, different application methods and film thicknesses are needed for different substrates, and we can advise you on exactly what we will do with your own business’s walls.

Contact us now for your free quotation

Wherever your business is based, whether it’s in Milton Keynes or the surrounding towns, you can be sure of a prompt response, a competitive & fully detailed quote and a professional service from start to finish. We will guide you through the process involved in the application of fire protective coatings, explaining all aspects of the job and together we can ensure that your place of work meets all of its legal requirements.

In fact, we will give you a quote completely free when you contact us about our fire resistant painting process. We serve offices, factories, retail premises, restaurants, hotels and many more businesses throughout the locality with a complete service – even out of hours if required.

So, why look to any other company specialising in fire protection coatings in or around MK?

 

 

 

 

Why may you need to request industrial spray painting in Milton Keynes?

If your business is in a heavy duty industry, the likelihood is that you will have highly pressing matters you would much rather address than the painting of your premises.

Professional Painters MK is precisely that company, with a formidable track record in commercial painting and an ability to provide the highest standard of both internal and external industrial spray painting in Milton Keynes.

Spray painting makes plenty of sense

Indeed, not only can spray painting be done more quickly than painting by hand, but it can also deliver a superior finish, with no brush strokes or roller marks. Then, there is the sheer versatility of modern industrial spray painting to consider. It can be used to apply almost any type of liquid coating, including paints, stains, primers and more specialist products like cladding paints and fire protection coatings, and it can all be done right here at Professional Painters MK.

What do you need to know before painting your listed building?

As we are well-placed to realise here at Professional Painters MK, listed building decoration is something of an art in itself.

While it can be wonderful to live in a historic structure, the task of redecorating it can also present certain issues to which you may not be accustomed.

You are certainly strongly urged to seek advice – such as from a local authority conservation officer – before undertaking any redecoration work for which consent may be needed, or which could cause damage to the property’s historic fixtures.

External decoration is crucial for protecting your building

It is important to regularly redecorate the exterior of a listed building to help protect it against decay. External wooden doors and windows are in particular need of regular painting to shield them from the elements.

However, this rule does not apply to old hardwood such as oak, which you should leave unpainted. Nonetheless, oiling or another traditional treatment may still be useful.

For an external coating such as stucco or lime render, special ‘breathable’ paint like limewash may be needed to protect the material while not trapping moisture in the wall, given the importance of allowing moisture in the walls of older structures to evaporate to guard against damp.

What about the inside?

While it is – of course – up to you precisely how you decorate the interior of your listed building, you should still be careful with redecoration, given that there may be traces of earlier decoration that could be damaged or destroyed if care is not taken.

Remember, for example, that it is customary in most historic houses for woodwork to be painted or stained rather than left bare, so stripping these finishes may cause damage.
