Home maintenance

Get the perfect paint every time

By Shane Woods Insideout Property Services

If you are thinking about getting your house ready for market, or just want to spruce it up, it is a good idea to tackle it one room at a time. In this article, we look at the process of painting a room, from preparation to finish.

Brushes The brush you use depends on the job and the grip you use depends on the brush.

Trim and sash brushes with pencil handles are grasped much as you would a pencil, giving better control for intricate painting. With beavertail handles on larger brushes, you will need a stronger grip as the brushes are wider and heavier.

When loading a brush the aim is to get as much paint on the wall as possible without dribbling it all over the floor or yourself. It should only take you a few times to gauge how much paint your brush will hold.

With the first dip, move the brush around in the paint to open the bristles and let the brush fill

Let the team at Insideout take care of all your painting and property maintenance

Painting the skirting boards, windows and doors in your room can be just as time-consuming as painting the walls.

completely. It will be easier to pick up a full load if you jab the brush gently into the paint with each dip.

paint a smooth horizontal stroke on the ceiling that follows the direction of the wall.

Gently slap the brush against the inside of the paint tin or lightly drag it across the inside edge of the lip to remove excess paint. To “cut in” neatly paint up to a line where two edges or colours meet - use a trim brush with bevelled bristles. Paint five or six strokes perpendicular to the edge of the ceiling or the wall then smooth over these strokes with a single, long stroke, painting out from the corner first, then vertically.

Where the wall and ceiling come together, use downward strokes on the wall first followed by smooth horizontal strokes.

Another cutting-in approach, beading, can almost eliminate the need to use masking tape to protect one painted area from another. Use a bevelled trim brush with long bristles and press the brush lightly against the surface, then, as you move the brush, add just enough pressure to make the bristles bend away from the direction of your brushstroke.

Keep the brush away from the other coloured surface. The bent bristles and the pressure will release a fine bead of paint that will spread into the gap.

On the ceiling itself, cut in strokes toward the centre of the room. Then

With both methods of cutting in, it is better to have a brush that is too dry than one that is too wet. This is detailed work so take your time.

Concentrate on a small area with attention to detail and the big stuff takes care of itself.

Roller As with brushes, the roller you choose depends on the surface and the finish you require.

Fill the well of the roller tray about half full, and set the roller into the middle of the well. Lift the roller and roll it down the slope of the tray, stopping just short of the well. Do this two or three times to allow the paint to work into the roller. Then, dip the roller into the well once more, and roll it on the slope until the pile is well saturated. You will know when you have overloaded the roller as it will drip en route to the wall.

The most effective method of painting with a roller is to paint two or three-square-metre areas at a time. Roll the paint on in a zigzag pattern without lifting the roller from the wall, as if you’re painting a large M, W, or backward N. Then, still without lifting the roller, fill in the blanks of the letters with more horizontal or vertical zigzag strokes.

Finish the area with light strokes that start in the unpainted area and roll into the paint. At the end of the stroke, raise the roller slowly so it does not leave a mark. Start with a roller stroke that moves away from you. On walls, that means the first stroke should be up.

Go to the next unpainted area and repeat the technique, ending it just below or next to the first painted patch. Finally, smooth the new area and blend it into the other finished one.

Prepare room for painting It is best to remove all the furniture from the room, but if this isn’t possible, cluster the furniture in one area and cover it and the floors with drop cloths. And take down the curtains and the hardware.

If you are painting over a newlyprimed wall, you can skip the preparation. But if you are painting over a previously painted or secondhand surface, look for rough, peeling or chipped areas. The best way to find flaws is to hand sand, taking off any high spots. If you find flaws, now is the time to fix them.

Plaster and fill holes and sand smooth. Prime any timber surfaces

*At the time of printing before repairing any faults.

Scrape older windows and doors to remove any flaky or peeling paint then sand smooth and blend into the area around it. If you get down to bare timber on woodwork don’t forget to prime. In the last article we covered the importance of primers and sealer undercoats.

Ceilings When rolling paint on a ceiling, maintain a wet edge to avoid creating lines and ridges. If you are using fast-drying paint, you may have to work quickly, without stopping. Using an extension handle means you can paint from the floor instead of from a ladder that has to be moved around the room.

Walls Paint the entire wall before stopping so the painted areas won’t lose their wet edges. Whether you paint in sections from top to bottom or from side to side across the room is up to you.

Tight spots You probably won’t have enough room to use the zigzag technique over and under windows and above doors and doorways.

Instead, just roll the paint on horizontally. For areas that are narrower than the standard roller, use a smaller roller or a paintbrush. A roller will give you the same surface finish as the rest of the wall, whereas brushes apply paint less evenly and tend to leave trails.

Doors, windows, trim Now that we have covered the walls

and ceilings, it’s time to move on to windows, doors, skirting boards and trim.

Even when the walls and ceilings the largest painting surfaces in a room are coated, the job is far from over. Painting the trim, windows and doors can take as much time, if not more.

Doors with smooth, flat surfaces are easily rolled, but doors with inset panels can be tricky. No matter what type of door you are dealing with, paint the entire door without stopping, otherwise the lap marks may show. Before you start, remove the doorknobs, the plates behind them and the latch plate on the edge of the door. This makes for a tidy finish and faster painting.

On ornate doors, start by painting the inset panels at the top of the door.

Paint all the panels and the moulding around them. Then work your way down from the top to the bottom, painting the top rail, middle rail and bottom rail (the horizontals) with back-and-forth strokes. Then paint the vertical sides with up-anddown strokes.

Painting windows will be quicker with a sash trim brush, angled slightly across the bottom to make it easier to get into corners and tight spaces.

Work inside to outside, top to bottom, cutting up to the glass first, trying to get 1-2mm on the glass to create a good seal. Finish with the reveals or face of the window, then the sill.

Painting a room is one of easiest and most affordable home improvement projects you can do.

Home hints

Keeping clean as you cook You finish eating a beautiful dinner and look over to the kitchen and see the mess you’ve left behind.

Sound familiar?

Keeping your kitchen clean as you cook isn’t always as easy as it sounds, but here’s some tips to help you do just that.

Measure over the sink.

If you’re measuring out a cup of flour, or a teaspoon of baking powder, chances are you’ll get some of the bench. So why not measure or pour over the sink, then any spillage is easily washed away rather than having to put a heap of elbow grease into cleaning your bench afterwards.

Use something to shelter the back of your stove.

Got a spare oven tray in the cupboard? Try standing it up at the back of your stove top to catch all of those oily splatters. A good trick if you’ve got one of those beautiful,

but hard-to-keep clean splash back.

you’re done.

Put your utensils in something.

Have a rubbish bowl on hand.

Slow down your cooking.

Rather than having to walk to the rubbish bin or out to the compost bin with handfuls of food scraps, why not keep a bowl on the bench and put everything in there so you can do it all in one trip at the end. It’s handy for keeping all those potato peels and off-cuts in one place until

If you allow yourself more time to cook, you’re more likely to keep your kitchen clean as you go. If you’re in a hurry, that’s when you’re more likely to make a mess. You’re more likely to not put things away, or spill things when you’re rushing.

We’ve all done it, used tongs to turn some meat in the pan, or used a spoon to measure something out, and then putting them down on the bench. It leaves behind a mess on the bench that can be easily saved by keeping a cup or something on your bench, to put your utensils into while you’re using them.

Leave more money in your back pocket

By Ash Shah

Don’t think that breaking the existing mortgage and refinancing will necessarily be prohibitive from a cost perspective. This is because many lenders offer various cash incentives to help entice customers across. In some cases these incentives can be big enough to cover the costs of breaking the existing loan agreement including any legal fees and sometimes will allow for additional cash to be left over at the end.

Adviser/Franchise Owner – Mike Pero

With interest rates at record lows, there has never been a more opportune time for hard-working Ashburton residents to take stock of their finances and seek out the home loan package that best suits their needs.

The dairy industry is going through a tough time, so local residents need to make every penny count. Refixing your mortgage, or refinancing all together are two viable ways to make your finances work harder for you.

Most Kiwis like to apply a setand-forget mentality when it comes to their home loan. Fixing

the interest rate for a set period of time, normally one to five years, is the easiest way to achieve this. The benefit for borrowers is they get certainty and know exactly what their repayments will be each month which makes budgeting easier.

However, at the end of the fixed

period it’s the bank that will try to determine the new interest rate – so some borrowers start to find their interest rates creeping up.

Using a broker when refixing or refinancing a mortgage is crucial.

Mike Pero Mortgage Advisers have access to a wide panel of lenders, and they know the industry better than most. And, because an Adviser will work to understand the financial situation of each customer, they are well placed to find the best possible deal, every time.

On the other hand, borrowers that simply want to find a better deal with a different lender will look to refinance all together.

If you’d like to find out if refixing or refinancing can leave more money in your back pocket, call your local Mike Pero Adviser, Ash Shah, today.
